"There are many people who came here with good intentions,have worked hard and broken no laws other than overstaying their Visas."

Greed is a 'good intention'?

Huh? According to your logic anybody who attempts to better themselves or advance their career is just an evil "greedy" person?
Give me a major break.

No. According to my logic, anybody who is so greedy as your friend to take the selfish act of cutting in the immigration line is an evil "greedy" person.

Greed is what motivated him. The pursuit of the almighty dollar.

He is stealing from people who have waited to immigate for years that could be here now working.

He is no different than a bank robber.

I am going to bed now Jorge but I will leave you with one thought.

I wonder how your friend would feel if he was still waiting to immigrate from his country of origin and watched as his fellow countrymen took the easy way and just overstayed their Visas?

For some reason I don't think he would be cheering them on as you seem to be.

Why don't we just advertise in all 3rd world counties to come to the USA? Why just Mexico. shouldn't we include them all? After all, we offer free health care, free education, free welfare ect. All you have to do is come illegally. What do you think the final total would be?

No, his logic is that anyone who attempts to better themselves or advance their career ILLEGALLY is just an evil greedy person. I tend to agree.

Would you support amnesty for all the American citizens committing tax evasion?

Do illegals only get a pass just because your friend is one?

Do the benefits of people like your friend outweigh the risks of the violent gangs in my town that are 90% illegal aliens? (we have atleast 6 or 7 of those gangs in my 100,000 population town and they have a tendency to shoot people and get away with it)
