The Mexicans come here as migrant workers, not slave refugees waiting to return to their homeland.
Some are bold enough to claim this land as "theirs" and to harass the white population decended from Europeans, declaring they are invaders who should "return" to Europe.
Of course Hillary invoked the Bible. She wrote it.
< P >....is ur friend
Her understanding of the scriptures is about as valid as what the meaning of is, is!
The D.O.T. workers seem to be hearing the message...
Get real. Christ and his apostles said to obey the laws of the land. That includes, most fundamentally, national sovereignty. If the Left wants to cherry-pick scriptures, how about Leviticus where the Lord instructs the Jews to wipe out the Canaanites among them?
You know . . . I think she is just plain stupid.
Hillary was asked if it was true that she was born in a log cabin. She replied, "A log cabin? It wasn't a log cabin - it was a manger."
The Egyptians eventually turned the Jews into slaves during their stay in Egypt. Is that was Hillary is suggesting the US do to illegal aliens?!
Guess she was accusing the wrong party of being the party of slavery.
I thought that Borders stopped selling Bibles and cartoons of Mohammed a while ago.
NEW YORK _ Taking her hardest line yet against illegal immigrants, Sen. Hillary Clinton told the New York Daily News she wants U.S. borders secured with a wall or fence, possibly surveillance drones and infrared cameras.
Clinton's proposal which came just weeks after she blasted Republican crackdowns on illegal immigrants as un-Christian raised the ire of activists.
But she tempered her remarks by saying that, while she supports a barrier to stem new illegal immigrants, she favors a legalization process for the 11 million undocumented aliens already here.
Clinton envisions a two-stage plan in which border security is beefed up, followed by legalization efforts in a year or two.
"A physical structure is obviously important," the New York Democrat and possible presidential contender said. "A wall in certain areas would be appropriate," she said, endorsing a high-tech "smart fence" that could spot people approaching from 200 or 300 yards.
Embracing both conservative and liberal goals, Clinton said she backs citizenship rather than amnesty for illegal immigrants, as long as it's "earned."
At the same time, she welcomed tougher enforcement of federal laws punishing employers who hire illegal immigrants. Clinton also does not support a work and school boycott by advocacy groups set for May 1.
At a planning meeting Saturday for a human chain demonstration in the five New York City boroughs that day, immigrant advocates booed Clinton's get-tough stance.
"To see the senator from New York, which is clearly an immigrant state, take a position that harsh is not the real solution," said Gouri Sadhwani, executive director of the New York Civic Participation Project and La Fuente. "The flow of undocumented immigrants into our country will not be stopped by putting up a fence along the Mexican border."
Saul Campoverde, 35, a construction worker from Brooklyn, who came to the U.S. illegally from Ecuador 10 years ago, also ripped the fence plan.
"That would be like clipping the wings off a bird that would kill many people's dreams of having a better opportunity, future for their families," he said.
Activists were happier with what Clinton had to say last month when she lambasted GOP moves to brand undocumented immigrants as felons.
"It is certainly not in keeping with my understanding of the Scriptures," she said then. "This bill would literally criminalize the good Samaritan and probably even Jesus himself."
