A 5-year-old girl in a brilliantly colored dress and braids who was handed up to Pope Francis for a blessing during a parade in Washington on Wednesday morning urged the pontiff to give his blessing to immigration reform and push lawmakers to act.
Sophie Cruz, of South Gate, California, delivered a bright yellow T-shirt and a letter expressing wishes that her mother and father and millions of others who are in the U.S. illegally are allowed to remain in the country. Her trip was sponsored by an advocacy group.

I remember reading articles about naturalization ceremonies being given in other languages so apparently speaking English is no longer a requirement.

Yeb’s dwarf wife has been here 40 years and still speaks broken English. So much for assimilation.

Who cares what this little girl had to say? She's a little girl. Hey, we have an entire system of laws and government set up through careful consideration in order to maintain a functioning national and world order, but wait, let's flush it all down the toilet because some little girl with cute ribbons in her hair said something.
I dimly recall something from the Bible which says that the cursed nations shall have women and children rule over them. Sound familiar?

Swearing allegiance to & to bear arms to defend the US and other things are also optional now.
I’m surprised they aren’t required to swear to vote straight Democrat ticket.

Her trip was sponsored by an advocacy group. EVERYTHING in the USA, particularly on the Left, is sponsored by an advocacy group. Everyone paying money for that photo op, for that twitter statement, for that sound bite. Of course, if you can include a child, its even better. Its disgusting.

Sophie Cruz, of South Gate, California a Mexican anchor baby paid for by American tax dollars ... expressing wishes being exploited by her law-breaking mother and father and millions of other parasite law-breakers who are in the U.S. illegally... There. I fixed it.

It was shown on the news. I thought it looked staged, to get positive publicity for invaders.

Cute little girls with flowers in their hair. Ahhhhh.
How about the other face of illegal immigration. The rapey, murdery, car crashy, weed smoking, disease spreading face?

And the pope thinks the Koran and the bible are the same, he’s more worried about ‘climate change’ than anything else.
He wants US to change OUR WAYS and HE’S the one flying around the world in a JUMBO JET, which polluted more on this one trip, than I do driving my SUV in 10 YEARS.

Of course. What a sense of entitlement illegal aliens have, including being able to break our laws.
