I think your situation is terrible, and hopefully Biden will fix it.

I have a question with regard to your parents.

I grew up in South Africa. People have been leaving the country foerver. It is the rape capital of tbe world, and before Mexico took the title, we were the murder capital of the world. We were known as the most violent country i. The world outside an active war zone.

Everybody wants to leave. There is very little future.

Here’s tbe thing. South Africans do not go into other countries illegally. If we can’t do it legally, we don’t do it.

I was, at one point, asked why I just didn’t take my daughter to America. I explained because I wouldn’t want either of us to live with the stress of being illegal, and when she grew up, it would be a problem for because she wouldn’t be legal. In those days, I knew nothing about America. I did, however, know that one didn’t enter countries illegally.

I did, eventually get into America. I won a green card in the gteen card lottery.

Here is my question for your patents. Did tbey not realize that once you reached a cerain age, you would be screwed?
