Me too. I like this guy.

Going against Mexican children because the US government deliberately failed to enforce the border laws, in order to woo their parents (set them up, really) for cheap labor, smacks more of prejudice and gotcha power.

We deserve to pay a price for this debacle. We made this bed. The children committed no crime.

I differ with him on offering legalization to illegals who were brought here as minors, however. They should be shipped back to their home countries with their parents and other family members.

I agree. It's as if a bank robber brings his kid to the heist and, when they're pinched, the kid gets to keep the money. The kid may be innocent but he shouldn't benefit from the crime.
