Are you trying to claim that the law's civil and human rights protections only apply to U.S. citizens? As if to say that illegal alien jaywalkers or those who are guilty of "walking while brown" are fair game to those who wish to swerve and run them down?

There you go again.

So, according to this logic, someone say, living in Ethiopia should be afforded the full rights and protections of our social welfare disaster, err...program, get to vote, get a US driver's license, etc.

That logic is as rediculous as your own. The poster did not say that that illegal aliens should be run down as jaywalkers. You are putting those words into his mouth (or in this case, onto his keyboard). What he clearly indicated was referencing the illegal alien (who is here illegally) being given a pass on his/her criminal activity and being made legal...talk about a magic wand!

Or, that same illegal, being able to disobey our laws and come here simply so that their child can be born here as a citizen thereby getting them legal residency too.

I do not believe our laws should be flaunted in this manner and am for, as I stated earlier on this thread, using the legal, electoral process to change the 14th amendment through another amendment if necessary, to disallow that provision for those illegally in this country.

Nothing fanatic or anti-immigration, or rascist about that whatsoever. Immigration is good for this country so long as it is legal and recognizes that people are coming here to add to America and become a part of it.

Now all of that is just my opinion as expressed on this forum. Nothing more or less.
