"Uncle Ben" Roll Eyes

It's amazing to me that this is a controversy.  Are "immigrants" only those who decide of their own volition to move somewhere because they think it would be neat?   What do we call those English convicts or street urchins who were forced by law to come to Virginia or Australia?  What do we call people who were victims of forced depopulations in the aftermaths of wars and made to settle somewhere else?  Please tell me what is the politically correct term for someone who comes from another country that won't offend our delicate sensibilities?   Maybe the offensive thing is the idea that slaves were human beings who had hopes and dreams for their children and grandchildren?

It's amazing to me the bizarre lengths apologists for Pussygrabber will go to justify anything he or his regime says or does, no matter how stupid.

Carson claims that slaves were "dreaming of better futures for their descendants"  in the nation that was enslaving them even as they were dying locked in lightless holds, and someone deflects with pedantry about the exact meaning of immigration. Deplorable.
