I did NOT marry a Citizen.
I came married and educated, my husband had to pass the same criteria that I did to come here, healthy and ready to contribute with USA spoending NOT one red cent for our education, upbringing, health care etc.

Obviously you came into the US on some sort of visa, whether it be education, work, marriage etc.
Makes no difference how someone comes to the US legally.
Education and work are not legal methods of immigration 
No, you are right since only asking to enter and receiving permission do.

Lotsa people are granted entrance and the Green Card on the bases of their education/proffession.
I was the one. I had NO sponsor.
An educational visa isnāt the same as merit based immigration based on education.
Was your education the only reason? You had no other status?

Legal immigrants are welcome ā¦ even from Central and South America. Unfortunately for them, they are being (understandably so) painted with the same brush as their illegal compadres.

Speaking as a black guy, that aspect sucks, but such stereotypes just didnāt appear out of nowhere. Thereās a reason for most of them.

Itās universal human nature. We do it to every sub-set. A few bad actors (or even just the perception of bad) within the set and their behavior gets applied to all.

All stereotypes for all groups are valid. They also make for some of the best humor.

Thankfully all the people acting like morons is still OK, otherwise there would be no humor left.

So after everybody called out for intolerance of Britains population after they went ballistic after the son of migrants killed three little girls at a Taylor swift event because well he wasnāt even Muslim right he was a Christian you bigotsā¦.
Letās fast forward to today ya as usual ,ā¦, er always wrong
āThe teenager accused of murdering three young girls in Southport has been charged with producing the poison ricin and possessing a military study of an al-Qaeda training manual.
Axel Rudakubana, 18, has been charged with production of a biological toxin contrary to Section 1 of the Biological Weapons Act 1974.
He has also been charged with possessing a PDF document of a kind likely to be useful to a person committing to or preparing an act of terrorism, contrary to Section 58 of the Terrorism Act 2000.ā

This, while awful is not a systemic problem like you have in the US, with school mass murders being committed by legal citizens.
Donāt believe everything that you read.
Actual school shooting in the way everyone thinks of them are terrible. BUT:
We skew the statistics of actual shootings so terribly for political gain by the anti gun folks.
If you remove all the random shootings that have nothing to do with it being a school, like 2 gang members shooting each other in a school zone in July (which IS counted currently), then actual school shootings where thereās an actual gunman inside a school becomes exceptionally rare.

And what happened in the UK was a one off and in no way an indication of anything else.
Well except that when you let a culture migrate into your country that hates your current cultureā¦ā¦ itās not rocket science.

That does not automatically make someone a murderer. Are you concerned about the crime or who committed it?
The UK has been multi cultural for decades.
Maybe but I remember the news going crazy about the fact that the protesters and rioters thought he was Muslim. You can scroll up at the very beginning of this thread the same things were being said that he was Christian he immigrated from a Christian country.
The media was all saying the same thing it turns out to be nope not Christian like the media said but jihadist making weapons of mass destruction, killing kids, and studying Al-Qaeda manuals.
I can pull up several news articles from it, but the media definitely were saying the boy was Christian. They are the ones that made the big deal out of that.
