when i walked to work this morning i passed through a demostration and i'm sure i ended up on the morning news as i walked by, about 400 people showed up and that was early in the morning. i imagine that at least a thousand were going to show up and thats just one fairly small location around the country. this is gonna get huge. at least they are not burning out cars..... yet?

Re: immigrant rallies across US

its kinda a no win situation. the areas where we are dependent on the cheap labor provided are also some of the worst areas when it comes to number of students in a classroom, amount of hospitals, etc. even if we grandfather everyone in then there is an immediate population boost that current infrastructure cannot handle.

then once everyone is grandfathered in they will be allowed to bring their families up under visas to reunify the family. even more people show up creating more problems in already troubled areas.

not to mention it's not fair to the legal immigrants who have had to deal with incredible hardships to leave their home countries to get here legally. just because you can simply cross a boarder doesn't mean you should be able to become a citizen. yet, at the same time i think that stricter boarder control will not solve much of the problem. more focus should be put on the employers who hire illegal aliens. fine those guys big time, they created most of this mess, and made it so that we are at a point of no return and dependent on their cheap labor. if the people come here to find jobs we have to cut back the jobs.

No shit! They replaced him with a bleeding heart liberal.

As far as the issue, I'm going to stay out of this one. I can see valid points on each side which keep me sitting on the fence.
