Don't weaken our system to accommodate illegals


Observer forum: Letters to editor

As an American born of Hispanic heritage, I'm in no way offended by the efforts of Rep. Myrick and Sen. Dole to fight illegal immigration.

Far too many Americans have been victimized by violent illegal aliens. We must make it harder for illegal aliens to reside in the United States.

In our country, law and order is still something to cherish. Why should we change our rules for a segment of the Hispanic population that seeks to violate them?
