And excuse me for calling them immigrants because an immigrant wants to align themselves with the ideals of the country they are immigrating to and the larger percentage do not.

I am sick of seeing Mexico's flag flying around here!!!

I have no problem with calling these law breakers illegal aliens. that is an accurate discription.

you are right in part about some....but we have LEGAL immagrents from all over the world that do not want to be American... they just want the benifit...that isnt an illegal alien issue. that is an immagrent issue.

you are STILL suggesting we punish the innocent children of law breakers. that is a very bad idea.

Ferd,
If the parents are not obeying the law, than why should we reward the children for that. It just teaches them to be dishonest when they grow up.

If a 5 year old has a dad that robbed banks would you make the same arguement for sending that kid to jail?

PO, we do not punish children for the sins of their fathers....or mothers.


you are making a very good argument for slavery reperations....(I think that is a very bad idea too)

Ferd,
It isn't punishing the children, IMO. It is stopping the nonsense of Mexicans coming here, easily, to become American citizens for the wrong reasons. They don't give a hang about it. Yes, for food, but not for what we want them here for.

Don't move in here and hang your flag on the front porch.
