There has been, even on this blog, a lot of argument about illegal immigration with points raised about whether illegal immigration is good or bad for the economy; whether it is fair to stop people entering the country illegally; whether or not we should expel those here illegally, etc.
None of this matters. It is completely irrelevant.
There is only one valid point to this debate. What is the law?
If you come across the border without the proper permission, is that against the law? If you take a job without the proper permission, is it against the law? If you drive without the proper permission, is it against the law? If you use someone else’s identity to establish tax records, bank accounts, rental agreements, is it against the law?
If the answer to any of the above questions is YES, there lies the only relevant point in the debate.
If you don’t like the law, work hard to get it changed. However, you cannot claim to embody justice and fairness while disregarding the very essence of justice and fairness - our laws.

Yes, laws are important. But laws do not put food on my table. When illegals coming to Minnesota start taking away jobs I have had access to for my whole life then it’s time to haul them back home, laws or no laws.
Surprise. I’m a bleeding-heart liberal.
Two econmists and one philsopher staed: As long as the Congress is controlled by DEMO’s , there will never be anyone to stop these illegals,
because to many illegals are proteced by DEMO’s…..dont believe it….?
Read all the REPUB. bills brought up in the House to curb illegals firmly, and change the entry law to a Felony from only a misdeamnor….start with HR Bill 1940 to do away with anchor-babies,etc. but her highness Pelosi, a bitch of a DEMO, will NOT let these BILLS come to the floor….?????
p.s. I was a DEMO, but now am an independant…
but will vote Republican all the way down to the last DEMO to be ousted from their Congressional job ,,,,,McCain is still the best out of the three , so whats the problem ?
