He is so concerned about the illegals coming into this country now, I wonder if all of his ancestors came in on the up and up...

3. Probably, illegal immigration is a recent phenomenon. |
|
Until we found that there was a glut of non-skilled labor, it was very easy to legally immigrate here.

5. I'm convinced if Lou Dobbs ran into a burning building to rescue |
|
people, he would ask questions about their legal status as he led them to safety.
Talk about a man with an obsession. :eyes:

7. People have this weird idea that illegals never came from the East Coast |

Illegal immigrant is synonymous with Mexican now...
There are illegals coming from all over the place...
