Mexican Indigenous mother loses child because she can't speak english?

This is so outrageous. Some social services somewhere in Mississippi took a woman's baby away because she can only speak an indigenous tongue (not much Spanish and no English). Is this what immigration law has come to? Oh! you don't speak english, we'll take your kids now. Thank You! Have a nice day!

This is crap. If this woman loses her baby then I'll lose my faith in democracy. Let me explain. Democracy has produced one of the most confusing, intricate and absolutely impossible immigration systems in the whole world. It doesn't even make sense to the people who enforce it.

Check this and this out. It's more confusing than the Bible. It's impossible to get here unless you're a billionaire or whatever.
Let's remember that there are desperate humans all over the world who look to the United States as a symbol of hope to change their miserable lives, but when they apply, it ends up taking twenty years to become a citizen. Can you imagine if you had to wait twenty years for anything. That's about as slow as dial-up. We need to take some responsibility and change this legislation.

I have a friend who recently told me about his family's immigration story. His dad applied 3 years before my friend was even born, and didn't hear back from the U.S. till my friend was 12. That means he waited fifteen years to get in. I spoke with his dad who said that coming to the U.S. was the most difficult thing that ever happened to him because he had to come first, then his sons, then his wife, then his daughters. He told me that they came in four stages like that. They are completely legal, which is entirely rare because of the insane process and expense.

If we want people to come here legally, let's make it a little easier on them.

that's all.
