Tens of thousands of "citizens" or "residents"?

There's an important distinction here.

Citizens. US citizens

First they came for the "residents", and I said nothing, because there were important distinctions to be made...

So in other words your claim that they are holding tens of thousands of "citizens" is fabricated. cool, thanks for clearing that up.

I'm not the person you think you're replying to.

However, since you're here: etymological arguments are really not the win you should be chasing.
