They need to come here LEGALLY that is the point. At least that is what most of us are saying. I am sure there are those here with a hatred for certain ethnic groups who don't want them here at all, but that is not the majority.

I agree that they need to come here legally, but perhaps the current laws or the way the laws are structured and inforced do not accomodate solving the current problem. Perhaps in order to solve the problem we need to first deal with those who are here. We have choices; shoot them their criminals, arrest them, incarcerate them, and deport them, or make them a part of the solution which they can become some type of legal participant in the current system... that doesn't necessarily mean amnesty, citizenship, and all of the welfare and ss beni's that current Americans are entitled too. Next, we need to think about how we deal with those who come both legally and illegally in the future. It is this effort and the future enforcement of this effort that will determine the success of the future. What that entails I can not say....we must all debate on the merits of the issues. However, solve not this problem and it will only continue to grow exponentially.

Thanks for the post!
