"We might as well set up a mercenary military with the price being citizenship. We don't need to use lawbreakers to serve inour armed forces. It is a privilege not a payoff to illegal aliens. As a veteran, I view such a solution as an insult.

Gotta disagree. Anyone who is willing to put his or her ass in the line of fire for this country deserves to be a citizen irrespective of their motivation. Of course, I also think that anybody who "conscientious objects" should lose theirs.

BS. It is a privilege and honor to serve in our armed forces. It is also a duty of citizenship. Are you suggesting that we should make a worldwide call and say that anyone willing to serve should be admitted into the US and given citizenship? What kind of country have we become when we allow people who broke our laws to enter this country to serve in our military.

This country is going to Hell. This is supposed to be a conservative website, but I guess the Ruke of Law no longer obtains. The inmates are in charge of the asylum.
