Those who oppose amnesty for illegals are not "over-reactionary hysterics"; they are patriots who actually believe in our laws being respected and enforced.
No, all they really want to do is have a job to make a living.
Not all of them by a long shot. There is a very sizable criminal element amongst them. There are millions of felons even amongst the ones who are "just working". They stole an American Citizen's valid SSN to obtain employment. That is identity theft and a Federal Felony. Those illegals and other non-citizens who are voting in our elections are also committing a Felony.
As far as getting a job, we are not the world's employment agency. If they want to legally live here and legally work here, then they can wait their turn in line in their own countries with those who choose to respect our laws and wait their turn.
I said THEY ARE.
Don't contradict me.
Yes there is and it's quite easy to demonstrate. One third of our Federal Prison inmates are illegal aliens. That is 100,000 inmates coming from 11 million illegal aliens. The other two thirds, 200,000 inmates, come from the legal population of 295 million. The discrepancy in those ratios is obvious and astounding.
