I am not against immigration as long as it is done in a LEGAL manner. Yes laws have changed over the years. It is not the easiest thing to stay within the law and come to the US on the cheap anymore. There is a sense of entitlement by the Mexican nationals to a right to invade the north in search of a better life Yes I know many good decent Mexican Americans that find their illeagal brethren and cousins from further south a bad deal. It depresses their wages as first and second generation citizens.

When my ancestors came over as immigrants from Germany, France, Holland, and the British Isles they came with the desire to live and worship in peace without having to answer to the crown or the Vatican. They all assimilated and learned a common language even the ones that were here long before the European onslaught I am a true American a mixture of the best sort, one that gives a little thought to my Native ancestors both tribes as well as the ones that arrived by boat to become farmers, lawyers, merchants, moonshining hillbilly's and above all Americans not hyphenated jerks.

Those here in violation of Federal statute should be expelled and placed at the bottom of any new Guest worker program. Anyone that wants a better life and has the skills needed and a desire to assimilate should be welcomed as our brothers, those that are trouble makers criminals should be turned away. May God bless the UNITED States of America, and have pity on the souls of those that would do her harm.

Immigration is necessary to fill certain jobs but the need of immigration is not a right to come here and be a divisive influence nor to make a new copy of what did not work in your old country.
