    I think that if any alien is in the military they should get immediate citizenship, regardless if they are a child arrival.

    I agree completely. I served with a bunch of guys from the Philippines. When they got into the military from the Philippines it was like hitting the lottery. Toughest hardest working guys you would ever meet. And back then they all got citizenship. Military should always be a path to citizenship if you are eligible to join and you serve honorably

    1983 to 1993. A guy in the Philippines could join directly from that country. And they only took the best

    Was this an arrangement only between the US and Philippines?

    I can't say. That was only my personal experience and did not come across service men from other countries. But the military used to be huge in the PI and I know they allowed recruits from there

    What assimilation programs are immigrants currently required to go through? I'd never heard of such a thing.

    I can only think of fraud laws from acquiring fake documents. What else?

    You didn't answer. What does Christianity have to do with what country someone belongs to?

    They must pass a American history test. Most Americans can't pass it

    Haha. Oh right. So hardly an 'assimilation program' then. And they have to pass this in order to get citizenship?

    How so? I think the plan is move
    More accurately one party worked to create. The purpose of open borders to the democrats is the hope of future votes.

    Hasn't DACA defined it? It is ages 10-36 as it stands. Although a year from now the 10 year olds will be 11 and the 36 year old will be 37. 36 is an old kid.

    How do we know all of this?

    Yes. The republican party doesn't want illegal immigrants because the potential future votes are most likely to favor the democrats.

    By placing many more border patrol agents, electronics, goon squads patrolling inside our borders, creating a fear of getting caught,
    and the understanding that they are not welcome. Oh, I am wrong. Trump waved a wand and they went away.
