Because I have enjoyed your posts over the years....

When the struggling Mexican and/or Central American hears and sees friends and relatives 'striking it rich' or enhancing their lives and those of his children by sneaking into the United States, what else would you expect them to do?

In their eyes they have seen overnite economic success and unlimited opportunity over and over again.

The fault squarely falls on the County and State governments that offer sanctuary...NOT with the peaceful immigrant.

Don't hate or despise the immigrant. Hate your elected government officials who actively encourage more of it.

Now lets back to zotting long-time regulars.

Cheers! ;^)

Equally, my friend, I’m sure you understand I mean no personal disrespect. Since you said “Cheers” I guess I won’t respond to your points.

Though disagreeing on most topics, we have co-existed peacefully; but, you know, I have to speak my piece from time to time...:-)

Okay, just one point... Of course, it is collusion between the federal governments and that is morally wrong, as well as the local designations of “sanctuary cities”...(glad you agree on that last one)...:-)

When a younger brother sees his older brother 'striking it rich' and associating with 'cool' friends while committing heinous crimes in an urban gang, what else would you expect him to do?

Same thing. Someone sees someone getting rich by committing crimes and they want to come and commit the same crimes. AND YOU'RE DEFENDING IT!!
