Way to go, ICE


I am so grateful to the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents for protecting our community against illegal immigrants. Although they did come across as rude, we do have to stop and think what they do on a daily basis. Would you be in the best of moods trying to catch illegal immigrants, of which some might be sexual predators? If it were me I would act first and ask questions later.

Did you know that every year there are an estimated 300,000 new illegal immigrants entering America? "A nation penetrated every year by some 300,000 illegal aliens ... is not a nation experiencing 'immigration.' It is a nation experiencing invasion and conquest." (Sam Francis, 2002.)

I ask you one question: Why is it that illegal immigrants leave their country to come the United States and believe that they have an immediate right to be here and use what resources American citizens use? We as Americans work hard for our country and what we have here. Our soldiers risk their lives for America 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and we can not just take this for granted and let these illegal immigrants use what we fight for. They shouldn't have any rights at all, period. If they want rights then enter this country legally and pay taxes like the rest of us.

I do feel bad for the woman that was mistaken for an illegal immigrant. It was an honest mistake, and I'm sure they meant no harm. It has to be terribly hard trying to tell who is legal and who isn't. I hope that you will take it as that and take nothing personal from it.
