"ILLEGAL, then you are fair game"

What did the courts decide about Elians' legal status?

Morality and legallity aren't always the same for me, especially when the laws are constantly changing.

I learned right from wrong from my parents and my church, not from law school.

As a libertarian, I support open borders & free labor mobililty.

HOWEVER,

I also support
1. full 2nd amendment rights
2. right of private property owners, including ranchers & farmers, to use LAND MINES to stop illegal tresspassing, esp. if they are near the borders
3. elimination-privatization of welfare & charity
4. privatization & defunding of public education

The problem seems to be "freely-moving" but very low skill laborers, who come in & then IMMEDIATELY sponge up tax monies (in emergency rooms, classrooms, etc).
Not-so "cheap" labor, after all - is it.

If they just came in but stayed OFF the welfare/public subsidies, I'd be a happy libertarian. That goes for AMERICAN ("legals") too, BTW.
