Re: Virginian Citizens to Cross the Desert into the U.S. without Documentation

Mexican immigrants come to this country for the same reasons every other immigrant group throughout US history has. They want a better life. Wanting a better life however doesn't give them the right to break our laws and enter this country illegally. Entering illegally is also very dangerous and leaves them vulnerable to exploitation and violence. They need to enter legally, through the front door. This will give them the full protection of law at the very least. The answer is in immigration reform and some kind of guest worker program. Simply allowing them to keep crossing the board as they do will only add to the body count.

"Wanting a better life however doesn't give them the right to break our laws and enter this country illegally"
Why don't you tell that to the pilgrims and all of the other settlers that came onto Native American land (which did include those Mexican "immigrants") and then stole that land which didn't belong to you destroyed it set up an illegal government and now are whining and complaining about some people who probably had ancestors who were the people you drove from their land, coming back to their land and working really really hard for really really shitty pay. The answer here is too either stop whining and let them back onto their land or just get up and leave America and take your damn government with you!

OK, and while we're at it we'll figure out which tribe of natives killed off the other tribe who originally held the same land, and which one before that, so we can make sure it all goes back to the original owner, which was probably a badger.
