read today: Illegal Immigration in the US
I just watched an episode of Morgan Spurlock's show, 30 Days, where a guy from the Minute Men lived 30 days with a family of illegal immigrants in LA. Now that show got me thinking and it occurs to me that it's rather strange how opposed that some Americans are to illegal immigration.
I mean it strikes me that the United States is founded upon illegal immigration.I mean, it's not like the folks on the Mayflower submitted to interviews by the INS or Homeland Security. They didn't fill out the proper forms and wait for approval from the Americans of that time.
They just hopped on a boat and sailed over. I mean they were the original boat people and they didn't just take away jobs from the Americans that were already here. They killed them.
Really, I think most Americans should appreciate illegal immigration and what it has done for them. I mean without it they'd probably be still be in Britain getting persecuted for their religious views.
