Its called assumption of risk. If you do something dangerous and get killed, it is nobody's fault but your own, no matter what idiot lawyers and "bleeding heart" traitors say. There is no obligation to help these people. They have no right to be here. It is in the interestes of our own national security to STOP these people. Get it?

Of course that's our interest, just as it's in their interest to risk their lives.

But people have this belief that somehow the illegal immigrants are coming over just to cause us problems. They are not. These aren't people wanting to bring down the U.S., these are people wanting a better life and risking everything for that. How do we stop it? Well, I have a few ideas that might work, but most anti-immigration people don't want to here of anything other than "keep those people out".

For those who do not deserve to be hit with such a broad brush, I apologize, but the racism built into the anti-immigrant movement is pretty hard to ignore after a while.

Good analogy...kinda like should we feel bad for Evil Knieval breaking bones or David Blaine starving himself?
