Senate Democrats Adjust Scope of DREAM Act - Page 9

At 30 I feel as young and dumb as you at times. I can tell from they way you type this is a joke to you or either your too immature or just arrogant to life and it's challenges..and for thatI feel sorry for you. You think your comments are cute cause you made the "cut" . I got news for you the work will have just began hun. Without saying too much I work with and make sure we adhere to contracts.
If Dream doesn't work out for me... Something will and no matter what happens..NOONE can take away my knowledge and the FIGHT that resides in me ALWAYS!!!!!

yea i also wish all the dreamers would benefit from this...but the reality is that the GOP will fight to get the least ppl legalized.

I will try to do this without being snark. Some at 30 already have a bachelors and working on Masters and have jobs. They also have more experience in surviving an unjust system.
Question is what will You do if dream does not pass?? You are now entering the age where most of your friends are driving and taking trips overseas and have SS numbers. So if it doest pass and the next time it is brought up(in 2016 lol) oops you are too old for the new age cap of 18?? oops.

See I have a SS, License and BS and pursuing my MS. Even if dream act fails, I will still be able to drive, still be able to go to USCIS and ask them if they would like some doughnuts or coffee. I just won't be able to go to my birth country (eventhough there is a bill that has been introduced to give those with TPS a greencard from my country. So I could say screw the DREAM act and focus on the TPS bill but that wouldn't be fair now would it? Point is your "status" should enable you to think selflessly but hey thats just the way it is right??

No i just wanted to know if I am wrong for thinking that way, and he did nothing to change my opinion. It's not fortunate, it's a choice that everyone had when they turned 18, everyone basically had to choice to stay or go. The last time they voted on the bill was like in 2007, so really even then they made the choice to stay. Being illegal, for the most part is a choice because even if your originally country is horrible, no one is forcing you to stay here. lol yes because going home some how erases all my experiences here Duke? Did i not go through the same things everyone went through now that i have a plane ticket with my name on it? Nothing will erase my experiences and memories from here, and either way I am still here and still illegal.

Not so funny now huh BabysaDreamer???

lol Well Im leaving on Dec 4th. so chances are I won't be here even if it does pass. Sorry to ruin your fun hahaha. I would never stay here pass 25 let alone 30, nothing is worth my chance to live life to the fullest. I could also say screw the DA I'm going home, but thats not something i would do because i have friends here who need the DA. The possible age limit change is something that i could see happening because i think that 31-35 is a bit to old.

At 30 you feel "young and dumb" as me sometimes and the statement that follows shows it. I don't care if i made the "cut" because sitting around the table with my mother yesterday i talked to her about going back even if DA some how happens. For those of you on skype i told Rose this, so trust me im not pulling this out all of a sudden.

As hard as it is to acknowledge, the truth is that by lowering the age by about 5 years it would get more republican support. We dont want that to happen, but if it does, than lets be grateful that at least it will pass. Instead of arguing about what should and shouldnt be on the bill, we should just focus on making those calls!

Why are we even criticizing and making fun of each other when most of us here went through the same trials and mistakes in life? Not everybody was fortunate enough to have left at 18. Heck most dreamers spent more than half of their life in this country, they grew up and adopted the culture, the food, the lifestyle, etc, or maybe they don't have ANYTHING to go back to. Questioning "older" dreamers about what they have done in their 30's is just plain ignorance, we all have different choices according to certain circumstances GIVEN to us (not by choice) , I'm sorry not everyone is like you...
