Reporting illegals is a very good idea — assuming it actually would result in deportations.

What is wrong with this clown? Too many bong hits?

He is confused. What does he and others not understand about the illegality involved in sneaking into a country without papers? Sometimes the left is so easy to dislike. They discard rational thinking as if it is merely an obstacle to their desires. It isn’t about sympathizing with the poor people of Mexico. I also have respect for the hard working poor Hispanics, I’ve personally hung sheet rock with them so I’m not some outsider looking in, which is why I will not let them become the slaves of rich white farmers and contracting companies. Does Rivera not understand that when illegal aliens get hurt on the job they are left with little recourse. What is ironic is that legal aliens from Mexico are often forced to return to Mexico for medical care because of the expense and contracting companies not offering them medical insurance and paying them low wages because they are Mexican.

He and others are doing poor Mexicans no favor in their misguided defense of illegal immigration. Just as the left is consistent in harming almost every group they attempt help by misunderstanding and misdiagnosing the problems involved and providing monetary and bureaucratic solutions which only cause the problems to grow even bigger while producing a permanent underclass trapped in the ghettos of cities and with few options but a lifetime of menial labor with children growing up being taught to rely on their skin color and ethnic background as a bargaining chip.

I think the lady is very well spoken, but sometimes she gets a little carried away. I think it was really rude though of Geraldo to say that. I think he is being a little racist because he is Hispanic, and I notice that some (I'm being polite when I say "some") of the people in his community have a blind spot about this issue and so tend to become overly defensive, to the point where they are actually not even interested in what's best for this country. And I don't think that is right, because we all know how corruption reigns in most of these third world countries. So I think it is really disingenuous when there is such a lack of regard for what's best for the good of this country, when obviously many people of Hispanic origin who are citizens are able to enjoy the blessings. And it strikes me as arrogant when people don't recognize blessings.
