I totally understand but what if that happened to you and your parents were french and you were 1 year old. They died so you are sent to France.....how would you survive now at age 18? I am against illegal immigration but there are some interesting concerns to be looked at.
You would survive by learning French with the assistance of the French government. Actually, that is an easy case.
This issue has to do with the survival of our country, our liberty, and our culture. Sentimentalism has no place in the discussion.
