Reagan made a major mistake in 1986 and started chain migration en masse. He screwed up big time. It's too late to argue about that. These people are criminals and they need to be removed... whatever it takes. This incessant belaying of government responsibility is completely intolerable. They need to go. Now. Period. So many otherwise reasonable individuals seem to have such difficulty comprehending the simple word, "illegal".

Reagan started it. Get it? He did many good things, but this deplorable single snafu negated all of them in spades a million times over. It is hard to believe that in this time of utter meltdown we are still bickering over this.

you're about as ignorant as they come. You said that Reagan started illegal immigration. Illegal immigration was flowing strong before Reagan was elected. Reagan, unlike tancredo, pushed a bill which would stop it. As I explained to you earlier. The only way to stop illegal immigration is to require the employers to validate the credibility of documents via modem when they hire a person. Congress passed Reagan's law, but they eliminated that one provision along the way. Reagan merely signed the legislation. He put in good effort to solve the problem unlike Tancredo.

If Tancredo wants to solve the illegal immigratin problems, then he should support similar legislation. I have never heard him doing that. He should have fashioned such legislation and tried to get it on the agenda. He should talk about such legislation before his fans. This grandstanding where he focuses in on one family in a petty manner does nothing at all except get a few nuts to support him while he offends the majority of people. It actually squanders our opportunity to do something real.
