So someone enters the country illegally, commits a crime, you want to just send them back? To do it all again? Rather than, you know, put them in jail for the crime?

it's tied in with how US citizens feel about being "different."

I want to be different, just like everybody else I want to be like. I want to be just like all of the different people.

It's Poe's law- sometimes it's a joke, sometimes they're serious, and it's nearly impossible to determine which at any given time.

Minor nitpick, it's not friction, its compression. The air can't move out of your way fast enough, so you push it ahead of you, and as more air gets smooshed together, it gets hotter.

Never fitting in, but pretending to

Not trying to deny your experience or anything like that, but a lot of people feel that way, especially around that age, are you sure it was because of your lack of citizenship? I know I have always felt like that, and I was born in Boston, Mayflower descendant too...

Not the point, I know.

I'm willing to bet when your grandparents came here, it was a lot less difficult to enter the country legally than it is now. Why do you think we put up so many legal obstacles?

Osama ... no one wept for him being denied a fair trial.

I did... Not so much for him personally, but for the number of high ranking CIA and other officials that might have been exposed along the way...

Either that or "it's pointless, like you with your pistol are going to stand up to drone strikes, can't win, might as well lie down and die"

A lot of people have this misconception that rich people are "good with money". They're good at taking money from other people.
