This morning I heard on the radio a soundbite by a Mexican immigrant, "We didn't cross the border, the border crossed us, and this is OUR land."
My first thought was that this is just the kind of stuff that will turn off most Americans, and make them less sympathetic. The sense of entitlement to break the law and enter illegally was oozing from this person's pores.
So, following this idiot's logic, there has been no immigration from the south lately. They've all been here for centuries.
