Actor and former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger joined ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel to promote season two of Netflix’s FUBAR, but the duo could not resist talking about the LA riots. Both men insisted everything has been blown way out of proportion, but Schwarzenegger also claimed the violence has been the result of politicians not passing “comprehensive immigration reform,” which he partly defined as giving citizenship to illegal immigrants.

A few moments later, Kimmel again sought to clarify what Schwarzenegger meant by comprehensive immigration reform, asking, “But you know, but seriously, of course, there truly are families that are worried they're going to be deported. Do you think that people who have been in this country for 25 years and who have had no criminal activity whatsoever should be granted the rights of U.S. citizenship?”
Schwarzenegger affirmed it would, “Yes, and also we'd then be able to hand out more visas, temporary working permits, permanent working permits, the green card, citizenship, and all of those things. And we would know who comes into the United States rather than not knowing and having so many people here that they don't even know who they are, and what kind of criminal activities they're participating in, and all this.”
