You keep doing that, the is more to this country than Texas and Arizona, lots of anchor babies here (Oregon, Washington, ect) are voting democrat but you don't see me saying all anchor kids vote because of course there is going to be a number of them who don't but that doesn't mean all of them.
If this is what you and a few other people think of this matter, imagine how the GOP and its followers think about us
"these damn DACA ADULTS, brought here through no fault of their own, that is priceless, they turned 18 and they had the option to make it RIGHT and come here the RIGHT WAY but nooo they chose to stay here and call their own HOME , all of them are nothing but drug smuggling MS13 gangsters making the lives of hard working citizens difficult!"
Imagine if they said that from a few bad experiences, but somehow that makes it acceptable for you to follow in?
Where does this guy get these stats? Or where do you get your stats Iamaman? Out of thin air too as King here?

The difference is unlike us, anchor(people) have full citizenship rights. Yeah I'm sure there are some who are really active and helping their parents, but the fact is, Texas and Arizona who have very large Hispanic populations don't just elect Republicans, but elect them in landslides. Maybe I can give a pass to 2nd and 3rd generation Hispanics because they are so far removed that they don't see themselves as Hispanics, but the anchor people see their parents cleaning toilets and building houses and it's amazing to me that they aren't more active.
My point is that I can't feel sorry for that group because their birth certificates got delayed a few months. Let them get angry about it. Why is this news for us?
