>>>We definitely view this differently. You are focused on obeying the letter of the law. (Do you run red lights when they turn red just before you get there?) I have always obeyed the law. I have never committed a crime and never will. But if my kids were growing up poor and uneducated in Mexico and all I had to do was cross the border into Texas or Arizona, yes, I would.

>>>The thing about it IMO is that the limits on immigration from Mexico are artificial. This is a huge country and we have room for lots more people. The border between us is invented, not geographical. China is roughly our size and has many times our population. India is smaller and has many times our population. No, I don't want us to become a festering hellhole of urban population, but we can get creative about it. Mexican-Americans are already all over the U.S. Why don't we say here are the places you are welcome to immigrate legally? They don't all have to live in Los Angeles. (A city founded and named by Mexicans, I mention only in passing).

For being a public sloppy drunk, you sure are critical of other people.
