We have 11 million people living in the shadows, which leaves this nation vulnerable to a myriad of threats. That is all the more reason why comprehensive immigration reform is so essential.
Both of the bombers were here legally, fully out of the shadows. Once was a naturalized citizen. So I guess we know how immigration strengthen our nation's security.
Illegal aliens are not in the shadows, they march in the streets demanding “rights”. They scream in a foreign language at the Capitol. They make us press 1 for English.
Deport on contact with police. Control the borders. When they show up in the ER arrest them.
