So illegal immigrants are not breaking the law? Did I get that right?Of course that's not what I'm saying. In the particular phrase to which you responded I'm suggesting that some people focus anger on perceived bad behavior by one group while apparently ignoring worse behavior by another- in fact, it just happened again.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
