"Illegal immigrants "are not free-loaders" but hard-working people who are seeking better lives for their families because social and economic improvements are not readily available to the Latin American poor, said a Guatemalan bishop."

Be that as it may it does not give them the right to be here illegally. It is called "The American Dream" for a reason. Americans hold the keys that access that dream. If, as the most fortunate of the world's inheritors, we decide not to fling wide open the doors to anyone who can get a foot on our soil then that is our choice, and our choice alone. If you are here illegally then you are stealing our birthright. A birthright purchased with the blood, sweat, and tears of our ancestors. Illegal invaders have NO right whatsoever to steal that birthright from any American. If they want to come to America then let them abide by the rules that have been set worth. In doing so America will give them their own key or at least an opportunity to earn one.

And not only that, after they are here long enough and are granted amnesty, they are then elligible for all of the affirmative action programs that give them preference over native born white Americans and even veterans like me. This actually makes me sick to my stomach to know that somebody that actually broke they law can get preferential treatment just by doing so. This illegal invasion WILL stop.
