The “no holds barred”, draconian “reform” that some people are talking about means splitting up families and destroying the lives of many people whose only crime was coming here outside the process. The majority of illegal aliens in this country are otherwise law abiding and productive.

The borders have to be protected against enemies and more numbers then we can sustain but the idea of hunting down those who are here now, except felons, is unduly hurtful and unnecessary.

Given the grevious economic conditions and lack of opportunity in Mexico, a young father would be evil to allow a shallow river and paperwork keep him from feeding his family.

You certainly have all the ACLU/NGO talking points down pat.

Say, you wouldn’t be a retread or sleeper account of Dane, would you?

“The “no holds barred”, draconian “reform” that some people are talking about means splitting up families and destroying the lives of many people whose only crime was coming here outside the process.”

That’s what the law requires. No “reform” required.

“The majority of illegal aliens in this country are otherwise law abiding and productive.”

Apart from the identity theft and fraud and a disproportionate committing of other crimes....

“Given the grevious economic conditions and lack of opportunity in Mexico, a young father would be evil to allow a shallow river and paperwork keep him from feeding his family.”

Not my problem and I damn well am tired of paying for it. Mexico is the 5th wealthiest country on Earth.

In other words, if a young father does NOT jump the border, he is evil............

I smell troll......

“splitting up families and destroying the lives of many people whose only crime was coming here outside the process.”

Nobody is splitting up families... why would a mother desert her children and leave them behind in the US?

At least you admit that a crime is committed when an illegal alien enters the US without prior permission..

“The majority of illegal aliens in this country are otherwise law abiding and productive”

No, they continue to be criminals who are not law abiding because they have not answered for their crimes...

And, no, they are no productive, but a drain on the US economy, demanding and receiving social services and free government handouts which are denied to the American citizens; the same American citizens who struggle to pay the large tax bill the illegal aliens cost...

“the idea of hunting down those who are here now, except felons, is unduly hurtful and unnecessary”

It is indeed hurtful, and unnecessary, but only to the American citizens who are struggling, and who are denied the same social services and free government handouts that are given to lazy criminal illegal aliens..

As to the hunting down... that’s what happens to you when you break the laws of a sovereign nations of laws...

“Given the grevious economic conditions”

NO Mexico is one of the richest countries in the world...

“lack of opportunity in Mexico”

How do you know there isnt? The Mexicans should riot in the streets and demand opportunies and “fair wages” and “good medical plans” They know how to do that quite well...They have had several dry runs and lots of practice in our country...

“a young father would be evil to allow a shallow river and paperwork keep him from feeding his family”

A young father is evil to break into another country and steal the bread from the mouths of another young father’s family...Why do you bleeding hearts never pity the children of Americans?

Why doesnt the same father protest his own Mexican government for the chance to feed those starving children?.....What’s stopping that brave desparate man?

Perhaps they should direct that dedication to doing good towards fixing their country rather than bailing on it at the first opportunity that arises.

And why on Earth would any decent person knowingly have children when he or she well knows that they won’t be able to support them unless they illegally enter into and work in another country? Is that commendable behavior?
