They also pay taxes, contribute to our GNP, do jobs that we don't want to do, provide the labor necessary to keep businesses from relocating or outsourcing, bring experience and skills in the trades occupations that our schools aren't teaching; and buy our lottery tickets. Reality is that we are dependent upon them now and will become more dependent upon them in the future.

So, you are pro-illegal immigration. Thank you for clearing that up.

Forest fires destroy homes, kill animals and humans, and generally cost lots of money.

They also help regenerate the forest by generating nutrients and clearing out the underbrush that chokes off new growth.

Flood destroy property, kill animals and people, and generate millions of dollars in personal and property damages, they also pull up nutrients that revitalize the land for harvesting.


Does the fact that I understand the positive aspects of forest fires and floods mean that I approve of forest fores and floods?

Does the ability to see both sides on an issue mean that you are in favor of one of those two sides?

Or does the inability (or unwillingness) to see all sides mean that you are prejudiced one way?

"So, you are pro-illegal immigration."

No, I'm stating the reality of the situation we are in. You can't oppose reality anymore than you can oppose gravity.
