Actually, this is a positive step, you can't crush the beast unless it sticks it's ugly head out of the hole.

I think it's already too late for these guys to slip their legislative amnesty crap through, I think this really is throwing gas on the fire. I am fine with the legal Hispanic community, even helped start a Spanish language TV station, but the illegals are a BIG problem (you just have to watch the nightly news here in Vegas to see the crimes being committed).

Illegality begats illegality, and once you start debating the amnesty stuff this becomes pretty clear, it's the same as throwing most of our workplace and identification laws out the window.

In principle, you are correct. That's what's depressing. We pretty much have to accept the situation. 8 to 10 million people are just too many to punish or deport. The only thing we can do in the long run is legalize them. We need to do it wisely, though, not another blanket amnesty like we've had in the past with no change in the current situation of lax border enforcement.

There are too damned many Spanish radio and TV stations as it is. Just exactly how does this facilitate assimilation? They don't, because they appeal to illegals who do not assimilate, have little interest in learning english, and prefer to live with other illegals.
