CJ, just how low are you prepared to go in defending the rights of illegal immigrants to commit crimes

I wonder if the open-borders types like this one believe in open borders with Haiti --- let every last Haitian who wishes to move to the USA do so, deport no Haitian, or do they believe ever person from Red China who would prefer to live in the USA has a right to just come on over --- how ever many billions there are --- or is this actually a La Raza racist who thinks immigration policies should be enforced for all races except the mighty La Raza race?

I am not an advocate of open borders. Illegal immigration is a big problem, not as big as really important national issues, though, and I favor the use of laws to thwart illegal immigration where possible and practicable, as is the government so doing. But I am neither an advocate for violence or murder or inhospitality or anger or hatred or racism or calumny or cultural isolationism or anti-business protectionism and rhetoric.

Neither am I an advocate of pretending that stomping one's feet ever solved anything, at least ever since I outgrew infantilism. That is one reason why I support President Bush's bold initiative in creating a guest worker program, because the status quo is not really working well in securing a measure of justice, and laws were made for justice, not the other way around.

Speaking from a detached perspective, regardless of whether you or I like it or not, the land belongs to a people who will follow God's moral Law. If we allow ourselves to become corrupted by moral-liberalism, then we will become the illegal residents in accordance with the Landlord's edicts, which are always just.
