Does anyone come here via Ellis Island any more? I don’t think so. There are people who come here on a student visa and never leave. I wonder how many are here on expired visas.

I don’t see our elected officials making any efforts to stop this influx of illegals. This makes for a slim chance of getting our financial mess cleaned up.

Our immigration laws are arbitrarily enforced. Remember Elian Gonzalez? I guess it depends upon who you are and from which country you are fleeing, doesn't it? Even a very real case for political asylum couldn't keep that little five year old Cuban boy here with his uncle, while hundreds of thousands of people have illegally entered the U.S. from Mexico without consequence.
