He started a business, paid taxes, contributed to his community, and achieve what used to be known as the American Dream?!
Uh oh! Bad HOMBRE!!!
Appeal to emotion.....
What about appealing to emotion on all those people denied legal immigration because we can't raise the limits due to the current influx of illegals?
It's been the Republican party that has blocked any common sense immigration reform for 10 to 15 years now.
Marco Rubio--a Republican had a plan 4 years ago that they refused to even listen too. So we must assume that this is the 2.0 extension to the Republican Party's Family values platform. Their Christian values at work again--LOL Split em up and move em out.
I wonder how much this is going to cost the taxpayers in welfare and other social services programs?
Like "common sense" gun control?
Any time those words appear before a subject, its code for "give us our way or we will whine like spoiled toddlers"
Build a wall, start deporting the bad ones, if we get a few of the "good ones", oh well.
Once this is done modify our laws to allow for more legal immigrants if we need them.
If WALLS & FENCES worked there wouldn't be anyone crossing the border today. And if you would have actually read the article this man came over on a Visa--and applied several times to renew his visa or get a green card and was denied several times. By an archaic--barbaric Federal immigration policy--that Republicans have refused to reform for the last 10-15 years.
Here is a great video on the WALL--watch to the end and you see how much money we have already WASTED on walls and fences, then this video will move into another video on the terrain and issues associated with structural security. The ONLY WAY to secure the border is with high tech motion detectors and more border patrol stations. Anything they can see can and will always be compromised. (Congress will not appropriate money for another worthless wall, and they have already stated that.)
A new wall would be better guarded, and have better technology behind it.
Again, fix illegal immigration first then fix legal immigration.
