It is also wrong to rely on slogans rather than thought.
We actually LIVE in a border state. We have the second highest number of illegals. (that, IMO, is debatable) We spend a lot of money and exhaust a lot of our teacher's time and patience dealing with the children of these illegals. Not to mention the billions doled out for public services, welfare and medical care.
We deal, firsthand, with the criminal enterprise, the kidnappings, the rapes, the drug dealing, child molesters and the DWI incidences.
We don't need no stinkin *slogans* to plead our case.
