Unless you're an American Indian, you're only here because of immigrants. My mom's parents came here from Italy and landed at Ellis Island. My dad's side came to American before the Revolutionary War.<br /><br />But here's the rub: They all came here LEGALLY. Particularly in the case of my maternal grandparents, it was important to do things legally, to be sure you had contacts here, jobs lined up, some clue of the language, and, get this, you had to be healthy. My grandmother's family almost turned away because her sister had a COLD!<br /><br />What's going on today isn't "immigration", it's invasion. I'm all for anyone coming to the US legally. But if you you're very first act in coming to this country is to break the law, then you clearly aren't the sort of people that deserve to share in what this great country offers.<br /><br />Gleno, AKA<br />-=Wolfgaar=-Glenohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00136566571723615119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268468693840523552.post-64953934987713836342010-08-05T13:34:56.018-07:002010-08-05T13:34:56.018-07:00Wolf,

Our Declaration of Independance, states that all men have the right to life, liberty, (property) and the pursuit of happiness. These are not the rights of Americans, but the right due to ALL humans. I know I am late to post, but just read this, and have to say, i cannot disagree with you more.<br /><br />-RinbarAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268468693840523552.post-85425844707276073022010-07-23T21:44:19.478-07:002010-07-23T21:44:19.478-07:00Here's the point that people seem to want to o...Here's the point that people seem to want to overlook: No one is trying to absolutely keep people out of the country. What we want is to ensure that people come in legally so that it's fair to everyone who comes in. Why should one family wait in line for a long time to get their chance to come in, do everything right and then we allow others to just crawl over the border like cockroaches?Glenohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00136566571723615119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268468693840523552.post-84345122427599976112010-07-23T15:57:24.256-07:002010-07-23T15:57:24.256-07:00I totally agree that if we have laws regulating im...I totally agree that if we have laws regulating immigration, they aught to be enforced. I also think that there is a need for a huge overhaul about how people get here. And what we do with the many here already. Kids that were raised here by illegal parents, I don't see that you can just throw them out. They are in all but name American. Fines, military service, some way to pay back for their parents indiscretion. Also we obviously need some immigrants to do the dirty jobs we Americans wont. Lets figure out how that can happen. <br />And as a side note to Glenn's comment. I was thinking, WWJD. I guess as a Christian, you shouldn't have a lock on your door to begin with. Just a thought. <br />CCAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268468693840523552.post-57386007873929228812010-07-23T13:54:05.930-07:002010-07-23T13:54:05.930-07:00Can you explain to me how you can disagree with th...Can you explain to me how you can disagree with the enforcement of laws designed to protect law abiding citizens?Glenohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00136566571723615119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268468693840523552.post-9780405668310476242010-07-23T13:30:09.519-07:002010-07-23T13:30:09.519-07:00I disagree in a strong fashion... surprised? -Jae...I disagree in a strong fashion... surprised? -JaeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268468693840523552.post-61754283320425726672010-07-23T12:33:19.516-07:002010-07-23T12:33:19.516-07:00Take the analogy a step further.

If I called the police to help me evict them, what should my response be if the police started talking about their "right" to be there and took steps to stop me from securing my land and home against this unwanted intruder?Glenohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00136566571723615119noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268468693840523552.post-43367647060476195872010-07-23T11:46:06.189-07:002010-07-23T11:46:06.189-07:00If a homeless person broke into your house and dec...If a homeless person broke into your house and decided to start living there, then would you not both take exception to this happening and not allow them to make household decisions? I'm not saying that the homeless person is evil, but the fact that they are willing to take out your trash does not mean I should be glad they are there. In addition, you would not let them decide what the family was going to watch on TV let alone help decide how you spend your money. <br />Living in your house would be a significant improvement in their quality of life. But would it not be strange to punish your children if they said that they did not want this person to live in their room.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03961752499758336371noreply@blogger.com
