True.
But a hijacked thread is one where the debate is fueled by emotion---not reason and facts.
You mean like, "most illegals immigrants are honest hard working people"?
Or how illegal immigrants have been the backbone of our country?
Like that?
I think years ago many freepers could have debated immigration nicely. However, that got us nowhere.
Now you have the recent protests by illegal aliens, and that has many of us furious with politicians for doing nothing.
