Then explain to me why you're kicking out people 11 years after they've been in your country?

Then explain to me why you're kicking out people 11 years after they've been in your country? Same reason as why convicted mass murderers condemned to death are still alive 20 years after being convicted in our own country. Touchy-feelie politics, political correctness and stupidity.

"Then explain to me why you're kicking out people 11 years after they've been in your country?"I'd say they have come to a point where they realize there are some people that are just freeloaders on whomever they can freeload off of.
We in America would like to be able to follow through with our "oppressed, tired, poor .. " etc. reception, but that sentiment was when there was only one way in (by boat into Ellis Island) and was not abused to any great extent.
Today, there are people from all over the planet that can't or won't do anything for themselves and go to a country that makes an attempt to be humanitarian. Unfortunately, the goodness of a nation is being destroyed by the badness of some people(s).
I haven't gone to Capt. Tom's link, but I would hope there is a breakdown of the nationalities involved. It would be enlightening to know that data.
