#1 - You still haven't answered my question.
#2 - The same sentiments were expressed back then. People back then felt that the country had 'reached it's capacity'. They felt that the new immigrants just 'weren't like us'. And there were plenty of people coming over here illegally then as there are now. Of course, that is a moot point because I AM AGAINST THAT!!!
You keep avoiding the real point of the arguement, which is what is wrong with a limited amount of legal immigration and whether or not legal immigrants in this country for less than 10 yrs. should be deported or not.
Who cares what they said in 1902? They didn't have 298 million people in the country, and they didn't have millions pouring in illegally at will. What don't you get about this?
It's no longer 1902. Look around man.
Actually, you didn't answer my questions.
Are your schools not over crowded? Your cities? Highways? Hospitals? Are your land fills full? Do you have unlimited resources where you live? Is the medical care where you live adequate for millions pouring in legally and illegally? Are your jails and prisons full? Adequate housing?
