Weighing in on Illegal Immigration


Everyone else Is doing it today, so I might as well bandwagon. How about a photoessay to start with.




Picture Courtesy of MichelleMalkin.Com She's got good coverage of the LA Pro-Illegal Immigration protests.





That third pictures only there cause the chick in the white was kinda cute. The LA Times by the way says there were more American flags at the protest than other flags. Course it failed to mention that they were on fire.

The only issue at stake here is the enforcement of the law. It is not economic. It is not racial or cultural. Those truly done a disservice are those who go out of there way to apply for legal immigration, who come here because they want to be Americans, want to take part in our great social experiment of freedom and opportunity. But that means responsibility too. Responsibility to pay taxes, to have documentation, to come here legally. Are there too many hoops to jump through to come through legally. Yes. Should that be streamlined Yes. Does that make it right to come illegally? No.
