I found this in the paper this morning and just had to post it. Although it`s the opinion of a student who has yet to learn responsibilities.
It shows the lack of reality some people have.



Unfair to students

In regard to illegal immigration, it is wrong that Mexicans, or any other race of foreign people, should be sent to prison or back to their country. They work so hard to get here, only to be deported.
There have been many cases where young, smart students graduate from high school and are ready to go to college to better themselves but are arrested because they are in this country illegally.

Some people think the worst of Mexicans, and believe that we only come here to start problems. But what they don't see is that all of us Mexicans are here to get a better job and start a new life.

Mexicans are not really bothersome, because they are taking the jobs most Americans don't want.

All I want is for the citizens of this country to make fair laws that respect the hard work and dreams of Mexicans and other immigrants who come to the United States. So, please don't let something stupid like being in this country illegally result in sending innocent people to prison.
