I have a hard time with this, because whenever I talk about it, I feel as though I'm coming across as some big racist a$$hole. But I have such a major problem with illegal people in our country. I completely understand the need to get out of where they are, but to do it illegally, IMO, is just wrong. (irishgrl- you have given me SO much reading material- which I thank you for- I'm still recovering from my surgery).
I guess I have a crappy attitude, but I think if you want to live in this country, you need to do so legally, learn our language, and pay taxes. I do not think it makes sense to legalize the ones who are already here, just because they're already here. That's like saying that since they got away with it already- it's okay. But then what happens to the American born children of the illegal citizens?
