What to do about illegal Aliens

First, the debate is not about immigrants or immigration. It is about illegal aliens and illegal immigration. The distinction is important.

News outlets are under extreme pressure from activist groups to use terms such as "undocumented worker." That would be like calling a drug dealer an "unlicensed pharmacist." It is intentionally misleading. People that have intentionally broken our laws are not immigrants at all. They are criminals and should be treated as such.

Let us have a quick look at the differences

Legal Immigrants

1. They applied for Visas

2. They waited until they were eligible

3. They learned to speak English

4. They learned about American History

5. They had someone here sponsoring them

6. They had jobs lined up and waiting for them

7. They respected the laws of the U.S.A.

8. They respected the American way of life

9. They were thankful for the chance to become an American.

What the Crimminal Illegal Aliens want:

1. Instant citizenship

2. Full medical coverage without paying

3. To have Anchor Babies who become citizens

4. To bring as many of their relatives as possible to this country illegally

5. To demand all rights Americans have worked for.

6. To be given free schooling for children

7. To demand that teachers be bi-lingual

8. Demanding, not asking to be allowed to stay

9. To receive benefits they have not earned

10.To be a further drag on American resources.

Which bunch should be welcomed to the United States of America - the ones that applied and waited for a quota number or the ones that sneak in through holes in the fences and immediately demand every benefit that true Americans have worked for?

Legal immigrants followed procedures, filed the proper paperwork and adhered to the laws in order to arrive in this country. Illegal immigrants did not. Calling everyone an "immigrant" diminishes the debate to xenophobia. Manipulation of language to change the perception is crucial in diminishing the issue to one of inconsequential differences or elevating it to racism, depending on the tactic.

It can never be called racism to enforce existing laws. Refusing to enforce certain laws because of the color of one's skin or ethnicity would be racism. Not extending equal treatment under the law would be racism.

Enforcing existing laws is not racism. Seeking to stop the flow of millions of illegal aliens into this country is not in and of itself racist.

To stop illegal immigration the government needs to secure the borders make it a felony to hire anyone without proper documentation and deny housing, education and public aid to anyone who cannot prove citizenship or legal residency. The benefits of being here illegally will in fact, vanish.
