The victims of Harvey didn't choose to be victims.

Flooding, property loss, and death. How can you compare that with people who choose to remain in the country illegally? I support your cause but you gotta put things in their proper perspective.

If you support our cause then thank you. However, I don't get how you can say you don't support a bill like the DREAM act. Where is the harm in the DREAM act?

Dreamers have no other places to go, besides America. We can only choose when we have choices. In fact, we don't . We didn't choose to come here; and ironically, we can't even choose to leave because we know no other country than America.

Rescinding DACA means property loss, job loss, and family disruption. The magnitude of this is on the same scale of Harvey. Houston's population is about 2mil. DACA beneficiary is about 800k people, plus their family members, bringing the total to 2mil people.
