I agree with Lilo and Ivy (and who ever thought those two guys would be on the same page? ).

I support the right for those who were brought here illegally as children to stay here, providing that they lead non-criminal lives as adults. But the minute one of the illegals commits a violent felony, to paraphrase that asshole Al Gore: It's time for them to go.

As for legal immigration: Come here the right way, like my grandparents did. And don't tell me about how poor Mexico is, because I'm fully aware. I truly feel for those people. But by the same token, Southern Italy was no financial nirvana during the 1920s, either.

The European immigrants of the 19th and 20th centuries had to come here though channels. The "new" immigrants should do likewise. It's not "come-one-come-all," and it never has been.
