Fabs,

Sorry but I have to disagree. The illegal problem is just that...a black and white issue.. OK if you want to give the "good" illegals some points for being good..fine. BUT send them home and make 'em apply for LEGAL immigration. Or let them come here, acquire a green card and them come work....and pay taxes and abide by our laws. Too many don't abide by our laws...and we as tax paying citizens pay for them. BUT to give them a free pass just because they are good people is wrong. How about all the ones who did it legally. Your parents came here legally.. So did my great grandparents on my fathers side. They learned the language and assimilated themselves into society. That is NOT what is happening here. These people are coming here at the behest of their OWN governmentin many cases. It is not just about a better place to live. It is about money and control..power if you will. Sure some come to make a better life for themselves...but wayyy too many send most of that good ol US currency out of this country. What would happen to... say... Mexico... if the flow of cash stopped?? Think of it. Giving a pass to US citizens on tax filing is one thing... Giving anything to ILLEGAL aliens is not right! Look at so many that drive an illegally tagged car..no insurance..no license and have killed citizens with those cars. What do they do to them?? The driver may go to jail..or maybe get deported. The passengers get ...released
