I don't expect you folks to post this...but"HOW DARE YOU"!! The LEGAL immigrants (from WHEREVER), I personally WELCOME you!! But you/the ILLEGALS, y'all remind me of the references in the bible to "the Locusts" !!
YOU actually expect a "path to citizenship" when your first "act " on this soil ..is an ILLEGAL one...Yeah, you will make wonderful citizens....We NEED more folks to become citizens that pick and choose which of our laws to break and or ignore!! Well,HECK,each of you should "go back and bring another back with you...(Oh, you've already done that....)
Why don't you stay in your own country and fix it and make it a decent place for folks to live!!Are you too ignorant to see that you're being used by the rich/ruling class of your own country (historically ,business as usual!)They are USING your uneducated selves to try and "get the land back that was "taken" by military conquest by US (A) and an added plus for your rich/ruling class is that they don't have to provide services for the masses in your own country!! Y'all are CANNON FODDER and too uneducated to realize it !!
