“The DREAM act envisions allowing illegals to serve and afterwards be awarded citizenship”
And why is this a bad idea? An “illegal” serving in the military has more social utility than a “citizen” living on welfare. This pathological bile spewing toward illegals is lunacy. Should a child brought illegally into this country @ 5 be judged by his status or his value to this country? It’s one thing to rail against deadbeats, quite another to lump those with negative social utility with those whose social contribution exceeds that of native born. Pathetic
And why is this a bad idea? Yeah it is a bad idea. Illegal aliens have no allegiance to this nation. They have nothing but contempt for our culture, soverignty and the rule of law. These people are criminals and you do not reward criminals.
What’s the problem, you afraid they’re going to deport you?
You are evidence that this country is almost finished.
The rule of law is the reason. The exceptions and nuances you argue for are just that, exceptions and nuances. Are you one of those elites that suggest the exceptions define the norm?
The only thing pathetic is your lack of understanding as to what the rule of law is and why it is not defined by the exceptions.
Illegal is illegal -period. Maybe the exceptions you champion could go to the head of the illegal line petitioning within the law for citizenship, but that is as far as they should go. They sure as hell should not bump any that follow the law.
