>>Here we go... When I am King, we will borrow from the wisdom of the old Chinese proverb, "a journey of a thousand leagues begins with a single footstep." So, we will secure our borders first. Next we will deport any illegals we find, including their families. If they want to come into this country - legally - they will have to go through the process. We would also repeal any law that gave illegals citizenship, just because their parents managed to break into our country. It would be akin to the "fruit of the poisonous tree" doctrine.

>You've got your steps out of order there, don't you? Wouldn't it be necessary to change the laws first, then throw out the children of illegals who are themselves living here legally? I assume you do still believe in the force of law, including those you may not agree with. If you don't like a law and want to work to change it, fine, but we can't simply disregard those laws. Not unless we want to embrace anarchy and a return to frontier justice.

Hmmm, you obviously didn't pick up on the key word "KING". That would imply dictator, benevolent, but still dictator. I could do this in any order I desired. And that includes dealing with surly oafs, knaves, and the like. Get my drift?<g>
