ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION
So you are upset about illegal immigration? Which part is upsetting you, since there are many facets to this problem? Mexican laborers coming over; terrorists invading the country; armies of dope gangsters and their cargo; criminals returning to kill, rob and molest after they have been deported; women to give birth to American babies; Chinese, African, Asian and Arab groups paying high smuggling costs; and the list goes on. You are right. We should stop them at the border. All of them, or perhaps not the workers we need?
Short of restarting the draft we could not protect our border with sufficient military or border guard personnel. Our military was crippled during the last Administration. You approve of the draft? You are willing to have your children serve a few years in the service of their country? Good for you. No current politician would ever propose to do so and stay in office or get re-elected. Do you think any army would be able to stop the dope traffic? Just remember the rumrunners of the Prohibition and the fortunes they built. We even had a president who was elected through the rum-running fortune of his family.
Now for the rest of the problem. What do we do with 8-10 million illegals now in the country?
How do we identify them? How do we take their properties away and deprive their American citizen children from support? Could the State take over supporting them while you forcibly march the parents to the border Nazi style or fly them back to Mexico? Assuming Mexico would allow the planes to land and we could manage 1000 jumbo jet flights per month taking them back, it would take more than 3 years. Do you think the ACLU and the trial lawyers and the Mexican Government and the UN and the Latino community and all the bleeding hearts would idly stand by and watch such a totalitarian act? Would you?
If you are TV or radio host you can mouth off all day about the problem and never face the consequences of your wild suggestions.
Perhaps we should invade and occupy Mexico and make it into Puerto Rico #2? Why wait until there are enough illegals here that are allowed to vote due to the Clinton Motor Voter scam and let them take over the government by abusing the democratic process we so nobly advocate throughout the world?
If you did not get the point by now it is this: You are entitled to your opinion but you are not entitled to ignore the facts when forming your opinion. The worst of the facts is that you have no idea of the scope of the problem; neither have you slightest idea of a solution.
I hear so many solutions that are bordering wishful thinking at best and idiocy at worst. National ID Cards, punishing employers, or other scam would do so much more damage than good and would not stop the illegal immigration or solve the problem of those who are here. Our problem is much bigger than the illegal worker from Mexico.
We are at war and the enemy is among us waiting to strike. Solve that problem and many of the above issues will fade away. Let us reason together and find something we could try. We have a cancer that has spread and seems unstoppable. Howling at the moon won’t help.
