If they have to leave for economic reasons maybe they should go back and change the governments in their own countries. Instead of trying to destroy our country by trying to make it like the failed countries they flee from maybe they could try learning why we’ve been more successful and take it back home with them. How about that for understanding?

>>Gallagher said that many immigrants do not understand that if their spouse is a U.S. citizen, they might be able to acquire legal status or citizenship for themselves.<<

Please! They know how the system works. I suppose they want taxpayers to hire lawyers for them too?

Ivette Luna, of Ocean State Action, said Rhode Island “is filled with fear and anti-immigrant ideas.” She said “statements of hate” are frequently expressed on talk radio shows.

“The people on the hill,” she said, referring to the state government, “are feeding into anti-immigrant statements. The key is education. We need the true facts. It’s all about human. We all are people. We are all immigrants. An injustice to one is an injustice to all.”


First, she talks about need education and then says 'We are all immigrants'. Who needs some educating here? Her ignorance is showing.
