I don't think we should grant amnesty to illegals because it sends the message that we are not interested in actually enforceing our laws. Just think about it, if people who cross illegally are given amnesty, and people who are waiting in their country for legal rights to enter, for years at a time I might add, what does that tell them? I tells tham that it is stupid to obey our laws. I applaud any imigrant who chooses to come here pay our taxes and try to be productive citizens, but not those who thumb their noses at our established policies and then expect legal residents to support them. Support our existing laws, not lawbreakers. If it is too hard to imigrate legally, perhaps that should be looked at instead of just saying we should have no process of evaluating who we want in our country, so that if you can just hide out long enough, you should be rewarded for breaking the law in the first place.
