I too am shocked how HN is taking a hard turn to the authoritarian side. "lega" "legal" "legal" "is it legal" "but they're illegal" geeze. I live in a country where it used to be illegal to know how to tune your radio to western frequencies and emigrating could get your familly sent to a workcamp. Now the west is talking about legality as if it were the holy grail. WTF?

If you think HN is racist or authoritarian, the real life must be difficult to you.

There is nothing wrong with having rules who can live in your country. I'm not an American and live in poor country, but I totally support common sense what nowadays is considered xenophobic.
