It serves no true good purpose. Unless of course you are an illegal immigrant.
That is not a reason to hate President Bush, or illegal immigrants.
I’ve read as much as I have had time to read, and I have perused this entire thread (almost 400 posts)as well as others.
I am confounded at just what part of the word “illegal” is not being comprehended here.
Where is the logic in ignoring Laws that were designed to protect us in so many diverse ways?
Radix: Thanks for your reply. I hope you read that part of my post that states my opposition to the bill. I also have been supporting Duncan Hunter from well before he announced his run for President.
I’m glad you stated that there’s no reason to hate anyone over this. Hate is dripping like molten venom from most threads now.
As to your simple point about what’s so hard to comprehend about the key word, ILLEGAL, I’ll say this. We need to get things in the right order. A border fence and other measures to secure what needs securing. After that, there’s a problem with what to do since untold millions of people are here who came illegally, originally. I think that’s the part that truly flummoxes those who have come up with this bill. There’s the additional need for some type of regulated work permits going forward, and what would the details of that be.
They can’t seem to grasp that no matter those connected, troubling issues, they need to do the enforcement until people can see with their own eyes that the government is trustworthy to do it. Until then, the rest of their talk and bill crafting is just pouring salt on a hemorraghing wound.
