I'd be willing to bet that in your book that would include especially the illegals as well wouldn't it.
I'm for giving everyone the same respect as they show our citizens.
Calling for the dist ruction of the USA isn't being respectful of our country or it citizens.
Just as entering this country illegally and milking the system is also not being respectful of this country or its citizens.
In my book "respect" isn't automatic. Respect is earned and not just given outright "because".
Neither has earned respect.
Thus neither is entitled to it
And from me. Neither will ever get it.
Nor will I be in support of this country giving it to them
