“We” meaning Americans, created this mess with illegals on our Southern border. Our federal and state governments for years looked the other way with a wink and a nod. In many cases encouraged workers to pour into this counrty to take jobs we didn’t want. Businesses and agriculture were happily their willing accomplices.
The “illegals” responded and eventually brought their families and planted roots here. That trickle of workers quickly turned into a flood.
Now, we want them out..... Arrest them, lose the home they bought, leave their possession and everything they worked for, have their kids ripped out of school and deport the bunch....
We clearly have the legal right, they are here illegally, right? We didn’t make them come, they snuck here in the middle of the night, in many cases paid a bounty to a smuggler, risked their life in the desert to be here.
So great PooBah of pure conservative values, now that you have the power and the law on your side, what would you do to solve the issue? You’ve got the guy’s with the guns, tell them what to do.....
Tell me what solution would allow you to look in the mirror each morning, look your children in their eyes, remain a follower of Christ and uphold the constitution.
The issue must be addressed, it’s outcome and resolution has huge political implications for the USA.
Rubio is just showing leadership by tackling the issue. Unfortunately, he teamed with a RINO hack, McLame.....But reality is that a junior senator has to team with a senior senator. I’m sure, most of the senators ran and hid from Rubio when they saw him tackling this issue. Bunch of pansies.....
Jim, I do not have the right to butt in, thus my apology to you.
I Like IKE Thank God, America won that War!
Look, we are not going to award amnesty and citizenship and voting rights to their estimated 12 million aliens (actually 25 million or more aliens) who are in our country illegally, thereby slitting our own throats. America will be doomed!! I’m sorry if they chose to come here illegally but we must enforce our borders and our laws!!
McCain Graham, Rubio, Hatch, et al, are INSANE!!
Very simple....legalization by permanent registry with NO citizenship option for those who came here illegally. For their minor children, permanent residency with an option to apply for citizenship on reaching 21, dependent on having a clean legal record and completing available schooling OR serving a term in one of the branches of the US military and being discharged honorably.
This means they can do anything and everything a citizen does EXCEPT influence the passage of laws by voting. An option they have already proven they don't deserve by their manner of entry.
“registry” should be “residency”......arrrgghh!
Hey, I want to know what laws I can break, that not only will I NOT be punished for breaking, but will be rewarded for breaking. Why should the illegals get all the breaks?
