“I think they should deport the Jews. They’re turning our country into a non-English-speaking country and spreading dangerous diseases around and stealing your stuff. “
That is exactly what people said a century ago. As a result, the Johnson-Reed Act was passed in 1924 which slammed the door on Jewish immigration from Eastern Europe. Six million had nowhere to go.
Sam is either not Jewish, or so assimilated that he has lost any connection to our history. Open borders have been essential to Jewish survival. English was not a language spoken by many Jews until about a century ago. And hostility toward immigrants is Midot Sedom.
(Sam’s stats are also completely misleading. The incarcerated illegal immigrants are mostly awaiting deportation, not criminals. It is not a crime to simply be in the US without a proper visa, it is a violation, like a parking ticket. Furthermore, border cities such as El Paso, San Diego, and McAllen have some of the lowest rates of violent crime in the US even though the Mexican cities directly across the border are among the most dangerous in the world.)
