Pretty much. It's funny because before DACA, I used to feel guilty that unlike many other Dreamers, I had a DL and a SSN which had opened a lot of doors for me and was hoping others would get that as well and from behind the shadows was doing what little I could to gain support for the Dream Act.

Once DACA came out it was beautiful and yet devastating because not only was I left out, but I was also losing what I already had as well and yet, there were people on here justifying it and saying things like "you should have found a way to get legal by now" so it became clear that nature's self preservation is alive and well on here too.

Even now people on here have told me on several occasions that because I have a family sponsorship that I should just shut the hell up and don't need to be included which is as ignorant as it gets since without DACA, I have a huge target on my back right now and that target will have a spotlight on it if I ever attempt to adjust my status so that is the absolute last resorts for me.

Anyway, if people with DACA want to call ME selfish for wanting to be included then they should look in the mirror.

Life kind of sucks at the moment but like Al Bundy and the mighty cockroach, I survive.
