I'm all for immigration, it keeps us fresh with new hungry blood. But I'm also for the "American Melting Pot" as opposed to the "American Stew". I believe in diversity within a culture, not diversity of cultures. So I am for legal immigration, against illegal immigration, and am opposed to the extremists on both sides.
"Yeah, I think if you read some of the threads about immigration here you will see that there is a fringe portion of people who would shoot to kill anyone illegally entering the country. Scary but true."
"""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""
I think people talk "big" all the time.....Many couldn't, nor wouldn't "walk that talk".
Now I also think if you choose to break up the argument in the way that you did...you end up instantly polarizing the anti's. And that was the basis of my reply to you.

Basically I agree..........although I think that our naturalization and immigration laws are badly in need of reform. For instance..there is NO WAY in the world that we should allow that a baby born here is automatically a U.S. citizen.
Fwiw-

Just perfect. Do you happen to author those 'Ad Council' commercials we see on the tube?
I see in your Kumbaya world, no one's "right" or "wrong" except those nuts on the "fringe," OR folks who stand on principle
BTW, I'll bet your personal vehicle must be the color gray.
