I do not support giving them welfare and that must end. If they’re coming here for hand outs then they should be told NO and put to work instead.

There is plenty of room in America, the country is huge and can still develop further with more immigrants. The more the merrier I say. This has happened all throughout history... now you want to pull up the draw bridge? It does not make sense.

As I said before, circumstances were different.

There was no welfare state, there was a frontier to populate, and an expanding need for labor. All of things have changed. There is a welfare state (and, by Supreme Court decision, you can't cut them off from welfare), there is no frontier, there is no expanding demand for labor, and illegal aliens are a threat to national security (read the history of the Roman Empire).

So darn straight I want the drawbridge pulled up, the walls manned, the pots of oil heated, the catapults, trebuchets, and ballistas loaded, and certain death to await any would-be invaders.
