America is a sovereign nation that is entitled to protect its borders. The overwhelming number of Americans want our immigration laws respected and enforced. As recent as 2007 both sides of the political aisle tried to push “Comprehensive Immigration Reform” (Amnesty) on the American people. In the 70 percentile, the American people responded that they would not accept Amnesty in any form.
Unfortunately, there seems to be a cult like movement in America, that will keep pushing America’s politicians to continue to supplant the will of the people.
I’m sure that many of the illegal aliens in the United States are nice folks, and I’m just as sure they can continue to be nice folks in their own country. We certainly don’t need to create a legal population, that numbers in the millions, out of illegal aliens.
We tried Amnesty in the late 80s, and that did not cure anything, because here we are again, trying for another. America simply can’t serve as the care giver, employer, educater for all of the countries that fail to take care of their own people.
Many of those in American law enforcement come from diverse cultural backgrounds, including the Latino culture. We do not hide or feel fear while we are off duty, nor do our children. If you feel this fear, it is probably because you are illegal or you support someone that is illegal. If the illegals would simply return to their countries, perhaps they would be less fearful.

Illegal aliens are criminals and parasites, one and all. Their very presence here and practically everything they do on U. S. soil is illegal. They need to be ferreted out, rounded up like cattle, punished for their numerous crimes, then booted back to whence they snuck in from with such extreme prejudice that they will never, ever think of violating our sovereignty again. Enough is enough.

Andrew , This is just another poor Jaun and Maria story that we are bombarded with time and tme again . We keep reelceting OUR Sheriff BECAUSE WE WANT HIM TO ENFORCE OUR IMMIGRATION LAWS ! What is so hard to understand about that?
First of all my family is Mexican /American and 48 % of us voted for prop 200 here in Az. . 90% of Americans as a whole want this immigration problem stopped !! The people of this country have spoken time and time and time again , but people like you will not let our will be done . First of all by your title of this article “Selma and immigration ” is a farce , and you should know better , how dare you relate the two issues as one . YOU havve no right . Our black struggle in this country is not the same as the illegal immigration problem so DON"T try to make americans out to be stupid or like this issue of illegal immigration is about human rights , it is about illegal entry and a country going broke supporting third worlds peoples , read the research. This issue is not going away , this country is economically on its knees and bringing the entire third world is not helping things regardless of the globalist thinking they can shove this down our throats , it isn’t working in tibet , it didn’t work in Bolivia by bringing froeign workers to take jobs and it isn’t going to work here , NOW you undertand that , or there wiil be no choice but to have a revolution in this country . We love this country it is our country , not the politicians who are selling it down the drain.
