Your argument is well thought out and beautifully written. Well done. Illegal aliens.....A growing problem around the world. Its in a lot of countries but its always fun to bash the USA, especially in some parts of Europe, and then keep quiet on how you deal with your own problems.

Re: Amen! Excellent
Manda Lee thank you for your comment. Something has to be done or a lot of politicians who think they know what is going to happen will be in for great surprises.

Re: Gramsci
I believe Jesus has spoken for himself. I believe you probably know less about Him than you do America (USA). We are more respectful of you we do not down Austrilia or Cambodia why don't you allow the citizens of USA to attend their own issues?

Re: Enigmatic68
Thank you so much for your comment. I do not understand why people think it is their right to have anything the way they want it. They should March in Mexico for change.

Re: illegal
Nothing slow about you. Some people choose to do as they choose regardless of the law and get away with it.

But then Jesus also said render under Ceasar what is Ceasars.
I understood this to mean obeying the laws of the land. From my softhearted point of view I would take in the illegals if they are going to work and contribute to the country as good people. But I understand that if everyone was too soft and flexible about the laws in the country there would be chaos. There have to be laws and they have to be enforced and respected. A very good piece of writing Justi.

The problem is that what's 'illegal' just reflects the values of America's elites - not what is inherently good or fair. I mean, it would be easy to conclude that a hard working Mexican man is just as entitled to the good life as a lazy American youth. In such a case I'm pretty sure that Jesus wouldn't care where the border had fallen.
And, of course, Jesus was a prodigious breaker of laws...

Justi...
il-le-gal (i le'gel) adj. prohibited by laws; against the law
I looked it up in Webster's New World Dictionary just to make sure you knew what you were talking about. 
By golly, you DO know what you're talking about.
A.) We need to go after the business owners who employ and accomodate the illegal immigrants.
B.) If they're here illegally ship them back until they can arrive legally.
In the long run, wouldn't it be cheaper to pay the fair for their return than to continue support illegal behavior? Just my 2.7 cents worth!

I think you have explained 'illegal' very well! I find it hard to understand that it needs to be explained
at all, but then, maybe I'm a bit slow...

This was very well-written and I can hear your passion. Your country has a real situation on its' hands with this difficulty. When I was in Florida it was talked about constantly. You do live in a great country and I understand you're wanting to keep it that way.
