I'm against amnesty.

Still, I would like ask a question about the pro-amnesty people and their push to pass immigration reform that would give 11 million illegals a path to citizenship.

Here's my thinking: If the federal government cannot handle and process the 50 thousand to 200 thousand illegals flooding our southern border like in Texas, then how in the world is our government going to process 11 million illegals if the Senate immigration bill is ever passed?

Myself, I say that it would be an impossible task for our government to process smoothly all those 11,000,000 illegals already in this country.

So passing the Senate immigration bill giving 11 million illegals instant amnesty is wrong. It is not workable and would be a nightmare for years and years.

I suspect that the 11 million number is WAAAAAAAAAAAAAY low if it was given out by the govt. At one time all we heard about was 40 million then the immigration ‘reform’ bill started making its way around DC and suddenly it’s 11 million.

I absolutely agree with you except I would say the number of illegals in this country is far more than 11 million and probably closer to 20 million, which is a number I have heard a lot.

But you are correct. If they cannot process the flood at the border, how can they ever hope to get through the millions upon millions in this country already?
