That sounds like an illegal (pale) Irishman to me.

I do not want to start a 'border war' here, but-

One bothersome facet of the conversation, across the land is the idea that we do and will harbor lawbreakers living amongst us.

I have no qualms about people coming to the States and being part of the pretty good deal we have here.

I just am appalled by the idea that we turn a blind eye towards parts of the problem.


As I suggested before-regarding the nitwits in Guantanamo Bay-people's hearts bleed for the group that want to do harm to us.

So, if you really care about terrorists we have in locked up in jail?

Sponsor one and have them come live in your home. Seriously.

Show them your hospitality by letting them experience all the things they hate about us-they just might change their minds about how we live.

Sponsor an Illegal Alien.

Bring them into your home/garage and let them live off of your good nature and spoils.

Pay for their insurance, allow them to drive your cars with no license, insurance or knowledge of the laws.

Pay for their medical costs, welfare and give them food from your kitchen.

We already do-inviting them into our REAL homes will let you get a first hand experience with their plight.

No, I am not being mean. I just want to illustrate a point-we just make it worse for them and us by allowing this farce to go on.

When you see a debate regarding this topic be very wary of who is on the panel.

There will always be the professor/teacher with the 'latin' last name that makes it sound like the U.S. government routinely tortures the illegals by uprooting them and sending them back to their countries. These are the morons who have worked THEIR way into positions by taking advantage of the rules and laws that allowed them to jump ahead in the "line/queue of life".
Their a-holery allows them to become activists for the cause and they gain a bloated and misplaced admiration from the people they defend.

The Mexican government officials refuse to enforce the US/Mex border because they do not want the people who have moved up thru the country to clog up their northern borders. They show up at the table with they sad eyes and say that they also suffer from the influx of illegals into their country.

It's way better to let them percolate up into the US, they become our problem.


And, while I admire the people who look at it more as a human rights issue?

It rankles my rear that it's solely looked at in that light. It's way more involved than uprooting people who are here in the states illegally.

I was watching a Nat Geo program about the AZ border.

The drug cartels and THEIR contributions to the problems are just bringing more problems to an already over taxed Border Patrol.
