Wild how sum folks bash protesters—after benefiting from immigration laws that exist bcuz of protests. If it weren’t for the brave people who used their #1stAmendment rights to demand change, many of us wouldn’t have the chance to be here today. The arrogance & ignorance are unreal. #ImmigrantRights
