Exactly. Republicans didn't really like DACA to start with but they couldn't just go out and say "we hate kids". I'll even admit that putting the age limit on it might have been a logical idea to keep it about "the kids" to keep the uproar down, but they could have easily removed the age cap a year later and extended the renewal period.

Instead, we got greedy. By we, I mean all those idiots protesting Obama's speeches and calling him the deporter in chief when at that point it was out of his hands. If he would have just extended DACA, that idiot in Univision would have said it wasn't enough and anchor kids would have cried and said "what about my parents!? You did it for those DACA kids, so why can't you do it for them??"

There is a big difference in doing something "for the innocent kids" than willful lawbreakers and now we all have to pay for it. I'm as much disgusted by so called immigration activists as I am with Republicans. With Republicans I know what I get - racists who have no intention of ever passing immigration reform unless they absolutely have no choice, but the activists are willing to ruin the lives of those of us who have a chance if they don't get everything they want.
