non-citizens weren't the ones voting. the ones voting are naturalized and believe because they have done it the "right way", that they're fine with the ones who haven't being deported. most of the people who voted for it are probably fine with this.

it'll be interesting to see what happens if Miller follows through on his denaturalization promise tho

Too many people don’t understand this. Hispanics that have legally immigrated know what they voted for and more often than not, can’t stand illegals. Lots of hidden anger in that community.

Really? You mean the Cubans that have the privilege of being American pawns as long as they have assimilated for decades?

What are they angry about? I'm asking as a Northeast Cuban.

Cubans had the privilege of just setting foot on US soil to be allowed to stay, never mind decades of assimilation. 

Something decidedly not extended to just about everyone else.
