Questions
a. If our border is so pourous how can we be protected from the next 9/11?
b. I have heard on TV that it may take 1 to 3 years before these illegals will get a hearing (due process,) Who is going to foot the bill for this? What is the mechanizm for getting the funds for this?
c. We hear that there are 12 million undocumented persons in this country. How many American jobs are being lost to these illegals and how much crime is being commited by the illegals while they are in this country?
d. Those illegals that aren't working have to have some way to survive. Who is paying for their welfare?
e. We hear that we cannot send 12 million people back to their own country and then we hear that Obama has deported 2 million already. Why can't we just ramp up the program?
f. The media is pillorying the protestors that stopped the buses that were carrying the illegals and law enforcement is saying that the protestors will be arrested, etc. Aren't these people just protesting to demand that the laws of this country be enforced? Where is demanding enforcement of the law a crime?
g. Illegals crossing the southern border of Mexico can be legally shot by the government officials. Why then must we cloth, feed and house illegals for years before we provide luxery accomodations back to their own country (if we ever do send them back.)
h. There are very stiff penalties for hiring an illegal. Why aren't these laws enforced? It would seem to me that this would solve the problem immediately.

Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
Sorry, but that is not the law. That is from the "The New Colossus," written in 1883, and appears on the Statue of Liberty's pedestal. It does not mean that you must break the law and come here illegally and force our government to do what your government won't.
