[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Because everyone deserves a shot at a better life, especially those fleeing violence. You are not more deserving of freedom and opportunity and safety just because you had the good luck to be born north of an arbitrary, man-made boundary rather than south of it.

And of course, just because something is illegal doesn’t make it immoral, and in fact, sometimes doing what is right requires breaking the law. Did you not learn about the Underground Railroad in school? [/quote]

While it would be nice if it could be, the US can not be the battered shelter of the world.  [b]Our economy can't handle everyone that's in a bad place. So the best solution is to be able to take a look at those who want to enter the US and help those most in need who will simultaneously be of the most benefit to the US.[/b]  Illegal immigration works against that and supports criminals who take advantage of people in bad situations at the same time.  It's not helping the overall problem what so ever.  It's making it worse.[/quote]

We seem to be doing just fine. If you want to decide who will live and who will die based on their utility, if you want to fight with your fellow man over scraps while the rich and powerful enjoy their banquets, go ahead. Those just aren’t my values, but you do you. [/quote]

DP. So to be clear: You believe that every human being who isn’t happy with the country in which they live should be able to move here and become an American citizen, enjoying all the rights and benefits that status affords?

Because that sounds like a recipe for success!  :lol: [/quote]

DP. I believe this. Why not? I truly dont understand why this is not the case. Why cant we do this for any country?

Democrats have truly lost their way. There are so many Americans in this country who are impoverished and suffering right now. Why don’t we help them first?[/quote]
