Originally posted by Saxman "Give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to breathe free."Can we PLEASE get a moderate voice of reason before the bleeding hearts and ultra right strip this nation of its last bit of sanity and run the country COMPLETELY into the ground? Frell, how the hell does anyone expect us to be able to rebuild someone ELSE'S nation when we can't even straighten out our own.

Originally posted by lazs2 When the french gave us the statue of liberty... I don't think we had welfare or free medical paid for by the citizens that were already there nor did we have to teach the immigrants in our schools for free in their language and most of all...They were legal. they came here legally and they worked and they didn't demand to have services and have their language become as important as english in America.The border guard thing simply proves that with more guards and more enforcement their will be more accidents..The only real solution is the simple one... arrest the criminal and traitorous employers. arrest enough of em and you won't even need a fence at the border.lazs
