    Duh!!!
    Is this even a serious consideration? I am tired to death of hearing about the rights of Illegals. They have NO rights in these, our United States. Send them back where they came from!
    We Americans are the ones who have paid into our so-called \”Benefits\” since we starting work at age 15 or 16.
    SICK TO DEATH OF THE GOVERNMENT!!!!

    A man struggles to your door and knocks. You look out and see a dark face thats obviously in pain. Cracking your door you check to see if your about to be attacked. Your realize your safe and turn your attention to the man bleeding on your front porch. You grab your cell phone to call 911 as he cries \”Help, please help. I\’m suffering and need medical attention\”. You realize the language is in broken english.

    Wait a minute. This is likely an illegal. You scream \”Get off my porch and go back to where you come from.\” I\’ll not help you because you drain our society. I don\’t believe in helping my fellow man.

    However, If he\’d been a man you consider to be here legal \”based off your snap judgement\”, I guess you\’d be considered a \”hero\” for helping.

    Teresa, I hope you never have to make that decision or that someone makes that decision for you or your family member. We must never forget that illegal aliens are human beings.

    A problem is never solved by hatred and greed.

    We as Americans should have a better plan. As human beings we should never turn our back on a suffering soul.

    Jack,

    You know what opinions are, don\’t you??????
    Everybody has one!
    I don\’t really care what you think about that \”situation\” you put out there. Illegals DO NOT have the right to come into our Country and reap the benefits from our society.

    I believe God judges us for our good deeds upon this earth. A person is judged upon their own merits.

    I understand your anger and frustration with the situation and apologize for the angst you must be feeling after reading my response.

    Its easier to call names and toss innunedos at others than to look for a solution. I believe a solution exists for human beings to co-exist on earth.

    Jack,

    I am a God-fearing woman and I do plenty of good. I don\’t however, feel obligated to sit back and let others come in and try to change our country, our values, our language, etc. We are in America – we speak English. I believe a solution exists as well – more Border Patrol!!!

    I have been hit (in my vehicle) by an Illegal with no insurance, I have to press 1 for English (excuse me??), IN GOD WE TRUST, whether it is their (illegals) belief or not. Again, this is America and we Trust in God, not the God they worship. To accommodate the illegals\’ complaints, we keep changing OUR ways. It is NOT RIGHT.
    Our views on this subject are very different and no matter what you say or how much you try to make me feel guilty, it is what it is!! However, you seem to be a very sweet man Jack even if you are trying to make me feel guilty for my feelings!!!! Are you an illegal Jack?

    No, thankfully I\’m not illegal. My great great great great grandfather was a stow away on a ship from England. I\’m not sure who gave him the right to live here. Possibly, The American Indian. One of my great grandmothers was an Indian from Arkansas. She was paid with 160 acres of land. I know a Mexican woman whose family occupied Texas before it was a State.

    I\’ve seen the face of hunger and pain of real human beings. Good decent people. I would never advocate allowing others to overtake our country or even our Medicaid program. But I promise you that it\’s not easy to turn and look the other way when you see human beings suffering.
