People Protest Arkansas Attorney General’s Decision To End DACA
 

BENTONVILLE (KFSM) -- Protesters chanted from a busy street in Bentonville, hoping to raise awareness of Arkansas Attorney General Leslie Rutledge's decision to end the Deferred Action of Childhood Arrivals program.

"This is a country that's supposed to have compassion and concern and take in people and help them. I mean that's my idea of what the United States of America is all about and I'd like to think that's the country we still are," protester Harrie Farrow said.

Over the course of five years, 800,000 immigrant children have benefited from DACA. The program allows certain undocumented minors to apply for a renewable two-year work permit and deferred deportation.

"They were told they had this dream they could become full citizens if they did the right things and many of them are doing that and have been doing that and now its being taken away from them," Farrow said.

Protesters left statements for Rutledge to consider with the her representative at the mobile office.

I loved the video of the protesters. Very well
Spoken and diverse group.

Saw the video. Very impressed with the diverse crowd. But I saw no more than 15 or 20 protesters. They need a LOT more to make an impact. Trumps rally's attracted tens of thousands.

Where's Mr. Durbin ?

His silence is killin me, no one in congress is standing up for us ;(

Re: People Protest Arkansas Attorney General’s Decision To End DACA
 

That's irrelevant and a false equivalence. Bernie and Obama attracted how many people? Most of those supporters are for immigration rights and DACA. How many anti Daca protests have there been? I'll wiat

Re: People Protest Arkansas Attorney General’s Decision To End DACA
 

Granted true, Obama and Sanders had HUGE rallies but the focus of their campaigns were economic inequality, crony capitalism and the banks. Trump ran on immigration, which is why he won the nomination and Presidency. We are living in very dangerous times.

Re: People Protest Arkansas Attorney General’s Decision To End DACA
 

Congress won't do shit for us dude. Once DACA is stopped, we will just back to the shadows, and we will be like those who did not qualify.

No one seemed to care about the ORIGINAL dreamers who aged out. We are no different than them.

The reality is, the ideological argument with immigration was lost. Even many Democrats oppose the concept. There will be no reforms.

Democrats honestly would be way better off if they​ started changing platform on immigration. I guarantee you, if a Democrat ran an anti immigration campaign, he would win.

Reality is reality, people do not like illegal immigration

I refuse to stop believing.


We still got the ACLU!

Re: People Protest Arkansas Attorney General’s Decision To End DACA
 

This is why many liberals are over the democrats. All talk and no action. They care more about making trump and republicans look bad than passing any meaningful legislation.

Bill Clinton was against illegal immigration and he was liked before the whole sex scandal

You're back to your " post Trump was elected we are doomed" hysteria.

Re: People Protest Arkansas Attorney General’s Decision To End DACA
 

We are all going to be fine .

Re: People Protest Arkansas Attorney General’s Decision To End DACA
 

Congress will do shit when they see us suffering. It's very different to give someone something and take it away, then to never have given them anything. Dems and republicans better compromise because they are the ones that need to pass legislation. All this shit Obama got for passing DACA but they haven't past shit in 5 years. Gtfoh

Re: People Protest Arkansas Attorney General’s Decision To End DACA
 

Honestly, I think that is the difference now. The program has been in affect for 5 years. They had plenty of opportunity to sue PRIOR to the start of the program and they chose to do nothing. Now people have lives and this will have an economic impact on the states where we live and the employers that we work for.

TPS has been in effect for years and it is getting chopped.

Re: People Protest Arkansas Attorney General’s Decision To End DACA
 

One can argue TPS has a different purpose. In our case we know no country other than the USA.

Re: People Protest Arkansas Attorney General’s Decision To End DACA
 

Anyone can argue anything really, what goes on is a totally different thing. Our only hope is that Trump decides to Flip Flop on the issue against his very own supporters for a good cause, his good heart will be tested for real this time. He will alienate a lot of his base if he does. Something that in my mind, he can't afford to do if he plans for a re-run. He will opt for the, get rid of it, then try to pass legislation, we know how that usually goes... Our great negotiator...

Re: People Protest Arkansas Attorney General’s Decision To End DACA
 

We are not going to the shadows... We are getting bloody deported.

I rather die than going back to Mexico.

Re: People Protest Arkansas Attorney General’s Decision To End DACA
 

tf kind of attitude is this?

worst case scenario is going back to the shadows.. they are not gonna target us. tf is this nazi germany?

and remember ya'll are fucking DREAMER's if you do get deported, you can make it anywhere in the world. we are fighters, the fact that we lasted this long says a lot about us.

Re: People Protest Arkansas Attorney General’s Decision To End DACA
 

what happened to you bro? werent you the biggest Trump supporter here? how you make a complete 360 of being 100% optimistic to now that we're done?

relax dude, everything will be fine.

Re: People Protest Arkansas Attorney General’s Decision To End DACA
 

Although Mexico might be a corrupt place it's actually very liveable compared to other Latin American countries besides Uruguay and Chile which are far more superior. The narco violence is only prevalent by border towns and poor rural areas, you should obviously avoid them unless you want to be a victim. However, places like Monterrey, Guadalajara, Puerto Vallarta, Baja California Sur, etc. are excellent locations to live in.

It's not a death sentence and it's certainly not a poverty stricken third world country like Haiti or El Salvador. Still, I'd pick living in Uruguay anyday over Mexico though.

Re: People Protest Arkansas Attorney General’s Decision To End DACA
 

Chill out.. nobody is getting deported lol

Re: People Protest Arkansas Attorney General’s Decision To End DACA
 

I hope we are, by the way, I am not a trump supporter.

I am liberal at heart but I am just tired and disolusioned. I am fine, but I have younger brothers and what happens to them affects me even more.

I don't know where you read I am a Trump supporter, I don't have an IQ of 75... If I have said anything is that Trump is all we have right now... And if we have DACA, it will be because of him.
