Write your Representative and tell him no way on this amnesty bill the Senate passed...
Subject: *Let's say I break into your house


A lady wrote the best letter in the Editorials in ages!!! It explains things better than all the baloney you hear on TV.

Her point:

Recently large demonstrations have taken place across the country protesting the fact that Congress is finally addressing the issue of illegal immigration.




Certain people are angry that the US might protect its own borders, might make it harder to sneak into this country and, once here, to stay indefinitely.



Let me see if I correctly understand the thinking behind these protests. Let's say I break into your house.

Let's say that when you discover me in your house, you insist that I leave.


But I say, "I've made all the beds and washed the dishes and did the laundry and swept the floors. I've done all the things you don't like to do.I'm hard-working and honest
(except for when I broke into your house)..

According to the protesters:


You are Required to let me stay in your house
You are Required to add me to your family's insurance plan
You are Required to Educate my kids
You are Required to Provide other benefits to me & to my family

(my husband will do all of your yard work because he is also hard-working and honest, except for that breaking in part).

If you try to call the police or force me out, I will call my friends who will picket your house carrying signs that proclaim my RIGHT to be there.



It's only fair, after all, because you have a nicer house than I do, and I'm just trying to better myself. I'm a hard-working and honest, person, except for well, you know, I did break into your house.


And what a deal it is for me!!!

I live in your house, contributing only a fraction of the cost of my keep, and there is nothing you can do about it.
Without being accused of cold, being uncaring, selfish, prejudiced, with bigoted behavior.

Oh yeah, I DEMAND that you to learn MY LANGUAGE!!! so you can communicate with me.

Why can't people see how ridiculous this is?! Only in America ..if you agree, pass it on(in English).
Share it if you see the value of it.

If not blow it off.........
along with your future Social Security
funds, and a lot of other things.

Ok, here is the problem with the argument. First of all I have to say I agree totally.

I still to this day don't understand why the protest. I mean, if you are illegal, you are illegal.....period. You have no rights. What are you protesting? What makes it even worse for those of you who don't know or are unaware, most of these protests took place May 1st. May 1st is the official "labor" day worldwide for socialist and communist countries. Whoever staged these protests had to know this and think about it, what kind of message are you sending to the rest of the world about the U.S.?! Just horrible.

However, since they will not inforce the law, what makes anyone think they will enforce this bill? Secondly, we can't be stupid about this, we have to be practical. They are not going to deport twelve million people. It's just not practical. Not to mention that legally, they didn't break any criminal laws. They have only broken civil laws which makes the situation all that much more complicated. Technically speaking, a cop could only issue a ticket for them being illegal. What good is that? I would much rather NOT pull our police resources to hunt down illegals who have no felonies, when there are perfectly good rapists, murderers and child molestors out there who need to be in jail.

I think there is honestly no real solution to this in the immediate future, but I am for building the wall. I think it would be a good start to at least slow down the bleeding. I think the biggest problem is the language thing. I bet if the majority bothered to learn the language and didn't make their situation worse with the ridiculous protests, then few of us would actually care too much about the whole thing. Just my :twocents:
