You made your bed. Now enjoy it.

Who is "you"? Only white Protestants and Mormons are overwhelmingly Republican. Other than those white Catholics lean Republican, but Hispanic Catholics (you know, the people being targeted in these raids) are more than a little Democrat-leaning.

Point being: The people who made the bed and the people who are laying in it are two completely different groups, and there is no logical reason to group them together.
