Yeah, that'll get you tossed in to jail, too.
Serious question for you MsDemeanor,my posts are talking about protecting American borders.What do you suppose we do about illegals coming across into America and not getting themselves documented?.
Your posts aren't about protecting borders (and as I said, it's border, just the one), they're about people and papers. How does demanding papers from a US citizen with Hispanic features in Flagstaff protect our southern border? We're still wondering what you feel that we're protecting our border from.
What we do about the people already here is complex. Perhaps we could start by prosecuting the employers who give them jobs? There's a firm that handles mail-in rebates for companies, you know, send in three proofs of purchase for a five dollar check sort of thing. For years and years and years, I addressed those envelopes to Young America, MN. A few years ago the address changed - to El Paso, TX. Gee, I wonder who they hire now.
Industries in country it has been dependent upon these laborers for too many years to just tell them to all leave. And "getting themselves documented" isn't an easy process, especially since the government currently doesn't have a way for them to do that.
That's not too much to ask in my opinion.I mean,when I travel over to other countries I need to carry my 'papers' and show them on demand.When that happens,I don't feel like my civil liberties have been taken away.
This isn't showing your passport to the desk clerk at a hotel in Paris or the porter at a train station in Milan, this is showing a stack of immigration documents to every cop at the 7-11.
Do you suppose we do nothing,like maybe if we ignore all the drug killings,and rapes,kidnappings taking place it will just fix itself..go away perhaps.No,I feel we need to do something about it.
Wait, wait, wait, are we discussing people who come to this country and stay so that they can have jobs, or are we talking about drug runners and gun smugglers? Two different things. We could probably cut down quite a bit on the gun smuggling if we could get rid of all the damn gun shops along the border and enforce federal wait periods at gun shows, and we could cut down quite a bit on the smuggled drugs if we'd just drop the puritanical bullshit and legalize them.
Passing this law was a good start.
My eyes are tired,I am going to bed now y'all.
