Support NeoGAF

[Novel Mike]

Saw this on MSNBC live a bit ago and was fairly surprised.

A vocal group of undocumented youths and their supporters drowned out Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi Monday at an event where she was calling on the Trump Administration to immediately pass the DREAM Act.

The news conference began calmly with a smiling Pelosi at the podium surrounded by Congresswoman Barbara Lee and Congressman Jared Huffman, community leaders and other Dreamers.

But then the group stormed in carrying a banner, signs and chanting — ”We undocumented youth demand a clean bill ... We undocumented youth demand that you do not sell out our community and our values ...We undocumented youth will not be a bargaining chip for Trump."

Many of the demonstrators were carrying signs reading ”Democrats are Deporters."

Am I missing something or are they attacking the wrong people here? Why attack Pelosi and Dems who are trying to get something done when its Trump and the Republicans who really want to deport everyone?

Edit: Toss me in the trash if old.

What the fuck is wrong with these people?! I'm no Pelosi fan, but I'm sure she supports DACA. Cmon people.

Edit: as for their signs, yes, Obama deported people. But he signed DACA. There's a big difference there

You aren't really missing anything. Obama was called the deporter in chief for a reason. That said, the dems and moderate repub are trying to solve the situation.
