We welcome those that want to come our shores. We simply ask that you do it within the confines of the laws of the nation you are coming to, and that you are coming from.
Why is this so hard? The leftists, Antifa, liberals, progressives, and Democrats refuse to use “illegal” in the discussion about the immigration debate. Instead, they would rather call conservatives and Republicans racist and not hear any debate on the matter.
If this country is so horrible to immigrants, then why are they 3 times more likely to become a millionaire? Twice as likely to start a business? Why do they wish to come here in droves?
I have a friend who is a naturalized citizen (he’s from Africa) and he is married but cannot get his wife into our nation legally. Some kid – or even an adult – waltzes across our border, overstays a visa, or flies in illegally can get all the benefits under DACA. In Massachusetts and California they get in state tuition.
All many of the conservatives and Republicans are asking is that immigrants follow the law to get here.
We have had amnesty in 1965 and 1986. Nothing changed. ILLEGAL immigration has not changed until President Trump has said this needs to actually stop. Like him or hate him, no one should be surprised – he said he was going to do this. Unlike most politicians, he is actually doing what he said he would do.
“I believe in the idea of amnesty for those who have put down roots and lived here, even though sometime back they may have entered illegally,” -- Ronald Reagan said in 1984.
If there were no way for an illegal immigrant to earn a living or receive benefits would they be here?
Wouldn’t we be more secure if we had a positive, paperless, bio-metric, photographic authentication system that would not allow illegals to have forged papers?
If you were from Nicaragua or other central American nations, who have been over run by vicious gangs that force your sons and daughters to join where they may be killed, wouldn’t you do about anything to keep your kids safe, wouldn’t you do it? Learn about what these gangs are like. Put yourselves in their place, before rushing to judge. What is “Legal” and what is Morally right, so often different.

Don’t “true leaders” typically attract people?

Border security is not a wall.
