An honest and original view of illegal immigration.

::::::::

Being passed around by email: 
 Let's say I break into your house

A lady wrote the best letter in the Editorials
in ages!!!  It explains things better than all
the baloney you hear on TV.


Her point:

Recently large demonstrations have taken place
across the country protesting the fact that Congress
is finally addressing the issue of illegal immigration.

Certain people are angry that the US might protect its own
borders, might make it harder to sneak into this country and,
once here, to stay indefinitely.

Let me see if I correctly understand the thinking behind these protests.
Let's say I break into your house.
Let's say that when you discover me in your house, you insist that I leave.

But I say, "I've made all the beds and washed the dishes and did the laundry
and swept the floors.  I've done all the things you don't like to do. 

I'm hard-working and honest
(except for when I broke into your house).

According to the protesters:

You are Required to let me stay in your house
You are Required to add me to your family's insurance plan
You are Required to Educate my kids
You are Required to Provide other benefits to me & to my family

(my husband will do all of your yard work because
he is also hard-working and honest, except for that
breaking in part).

If you try to call the police or force me out, I will call my friends

who will picket your house carrying signs that proclaim my
RIGHT to be there.


It's only fair, after all, because you have a nicer house than I do,

and I'm just trying to better myself.  I'm a hard-working and honest person, except for well, you know, I did break into your house.

And what a deal it is for me!!!

I live in your house, contributing only a fraction of the cost of my keep,

and there is nothing you can do about it without being accused

of being cold.


Oh yeah,
I DEMAND that you to learn MY LANGUAGE!!! so you can
communicate with me.

Why can't people see how ridiculous this is?!

Only in America !!
If you agree, pass it on (
in English).
Share it if you see the value of  it.

If not blow it off.........
along with your future Social Security
funds, and a lot of other things.
