"We already have this (H-2A Visa Program). It's uncapped seasonal and temporary. It works perfectly fine so of course no one knows about it. The various pro-illegal lobbies don't like it because it isn't open borders.

"Because "guy who goes around harassing and attacking the cops while armed is eventually shot by them after one of many altercations escalates" is pretty reasonable. The expectation that leftist mobs can do anything and cops just have to stand there and take it is evil.
