as I said above - have the MSM run a loop of a SWAT team busting into a church to pull out a bunch of illegals - and you'll have 60% of the americans supporting amnesty in about 5 minutes.

your intentions are good, but you need to think ahead a couple of moves.

You are relying upon short-term political motivations to undermine an entire legal system nearly 300 years in the making. Consider, if you will, what your probable reaction would be if a Hillary Clinton administration were to utilize the same approach you are advocating. No thank you.

There was a movie with a similar theme a number of years back, which you might find interesting. It is called "A Man for All Seasons" Check it out.

Principle is worth fighting for. Expediency, which is what you are advocating, is an incredibly slippery slope.
