Andres,
Colorado Springs, CO
As a second generation Mexican, with 2 parents that at one point came here illegally. I vote republican, I am a Republican. I voted for Trump, I support ICE. These things get me labeled a traitor, a bigot, or a brain washed conservative. My father came here illegally, but gained his citizenship under the Ronald Reagan administration’s Amnesty. My mother came over smuggled in the back of a Uhaul but gained her residency and proudly achieved US Citizenship this past December. I do not agree with handouts or weekly payouts for those coming here to abuse our system. I do not support our veterans, as a United States Marine Corps veteran, living on the streets while those that have given nothing for our nation are being fed with a sliver spoon. I agree with deportation and cleaning up our communities in such a way that our own citizens are provided for versus strangers. I am tired of being labeled things, or being grouped with racists for feeling that we need to get back to our core. My roots are Red White and Green, but I bleed Red White and Blue. I have this nation to thank for all the things that my family and I are blessed for, I can appreciate my heritage but recognize my present.
