>Did the Italians and Irish come in through Ellis Island or did they just stroll across the border in the middle of the night, violating all kinds of immigration and labor laws?
I agree with you, Reaganwuzthebest.
But let us not forget that this nation was founded by Europeans for their progeny, not for someone else's progeny.
Beware of the brainwashed little minds who say that they're against illegal immigration but in favor of legal immigration. That is exactly what the enemy wants us to say. So, what's the difference if the invaders come in legally or illegally? Legally or illegally they still end up being on American soil. Legal immigration is as much a problem as illegal immigration, if not a bigger problem. The quesion is now HOW (legally or illegally), the question is WHOM.
I'd be happy if they just brought legal immigration numbers down to what they were in the 80s, which was about 500,000 a year. We could probably use a 10 year moratorium at this point but politically I don't ever see that happening.
I don't think we have too many "brainwashed little minds" on Freerepublic.
