Tom Brokow scolds those who question illegal immigrants who become dead U.S. Marines
NBC News | 3-24-03 | eBay Artist

Posted on 03/24/2003 5:06:52 PM PST by eBay Artist

NBC News ran a background story about Jose Guiterrez, killed U.S. Marine. He came to the country illegally from Guatemala in a freight train. Lived in a foster home, became a U.S. Marine and died in the last few days in Iraq. Brokow follows up with: "Think about that before you rail against illegal immigrants again!"

Ditto. Nevertheless, our great sorrow that this kid died serving his adopted country and came here for the dream of America, not to just suck out benefits. He is a hero who certainly deserves our respect and gratitude.

Hmmm? I'd say the difference is this guy came from Guatamala NOT MEXICO!! Different culture than Mexico.

Any soldier that dies in the service of America is a hero. I agree with that.

Having said as much, Tom Brokaw's comment was a gratuitas swipe at every one of us who is outraged at illegal immigration. Like I said Doug-

Hey Tommy-boy, I got yur story right here!

All illegal aliens are lawbreakers and I like to slander lawbreakers. I admire the fact that Gutierrez sacrificed his life in fighting for the U.S., but what he did was a rare exception to the rule among illegal aliens in the U.S.

If all illegal aliens were like Guierrez, we would roll out the red carpet for them. Unfortunately, he was an exception.

Prayers for him and for his family.
