"Hitler killed his unwanted population - should we do that too?"

What did I post to lead you to ask me such a dumb stupid question. And to use "Hitler's " name directed to me is insulting.   Of course we don't kill our unwanted population. First, illegal aliens are not our population, or don't you understand that. Second, we control how they sneak under the fence or make them get in line to be tested for infectious diseases like every other legal immigrant.

What don't you understand about a nation that does not control it's borders. The answer is very simple, it ceases to be a sovereign nation, or a nation at all.

I take from your question, you're for uncontrolled borders?

If you have a Thomas Sowell ping list, please put me on it. Sowell is one of our clearest thinkers/journalists. I do wish he would go ahead and call this 'movement' what it really is, an INVASION. Too many running the 'movement' want to carve out a piece of America for their Mexicanization, without having to confront the feudal state of Vincente Fox. THAT's what makes this an invasion.

once you get into Sowell's columns in archives on his various web published sites, be sure and pick up some of his books. Start with The Vision of the Annointed

ENFORCEMENT FIRST. No need to discuss anything else until our borders are sealed and our current laws are ENFORCED.

Hallelujah

I dont think Sowell believes that Hispanics in the past were not among the most patriotic and loyal Americans. (a good percentage anyway)

He is saying that the immigrants of today, most of them illegal, are NOT the same as the immigrants of old. Re-read his column.

THAT's what I got out of it.

The more pressure we keep on Mexico, immigration-wise, the more reformers
inside of Mexico can be emboldened and empowered to scale back monopolists'
abuses down there which keep our own country flooded with economic refugees.
Here's an interesting new thread on new legal reform progress that finally
emerged in Mexico I think as a result of immigration reform's failure:

We can make a difference for our sake, and their's as well. Isn't it the
neighborly thing to do?
