What turns me away from your argument is that the laws you care about have a certain convenience to them.

You'll vote for a guy that raped a 12 year old girl. You don't care.

You care about some schmucks papers when his skin color isn't to you liking as if that was akin to murder.

Where did I say this? Who is this "you" here? Why are you making accusations in bad faith trying to demonize people you don't know using words they haven't said and arguments they haven't made?

It's always the same thing with you types. Grasping at words like some kind of hyper-logical machine trying to find some magical logical fallacy that will somehow invalidate the speaker's entire argument.

Let's set facts here: you are arguing for a position held by the dictator in charge of the USA today, and it is plenty transparent that you voted for him and you love everything he's doing. Everything else is just misdirection so you can try and confuse any bystanders, abusing the very same 'niceness' and 'non-political' messaging you accuse others of breaking all the time.

Let's not mince words here anymore. Everyone can see through you. If you're doing it deliberately, congratulations.

And it's painfully obvious that he's got a lot of unresolved hatred and bigotry issues.
