He was pretty rude after that but I didnt really care. (And he's white!!)
Hope he didn't mess up my fingerprints though cuz it's still says appointment is scheduled after a month now.
They're not all bad. The first person to collect my fingerprints back in 2012 was so nice. She even told me that she was so happy that DACA was being implemented and that we could now receive work permits. I was so scared at the time, but her kind words really made me feel comfortable.

Seriously. I've been trying to explain this to you all repeatedly. This is how activist organizations and political negotiation works. You present a hard liners facade such as "Clean DA Only" in public, but internal strategy is and has always been willing to compromise certain border security measures. It would be foolish to lay all your cards on the table immediately, especially in negotiations. If you let those with anti-immigrant sentimens/views know how much you're willing to compromise upfront then they will keep pushing and asking for more. You won't have any leverage for when formal negotiations begins. So internally you know how far you're willing to compromise or how much you're willing to concede, but until formal negotiations begin you're best strategy is to draw a line and proclaim you won't cross it.. so to speak.

Trump needs a lot of support right now. Hannity , Laura Ingram and breibart are all going crazy and putting a lot of pressure on him right now.

True that, there are a lot of DACA supporters out there.
Hope it was just me being too sensitive.
