Time to piss people off
I've been watching the ongoing debates/protests of the "immigration crackdown" and I'm just marveling at how moronic this all is. Why should any government have to justify itself for cracking down on something that is by very definition, illegal. There are some legal issues that are highly debatable but illegal immigration is ILLEGAL immigration. Look at any other government in the world and you'll see that there is no question in their mind where illegal immigrants belong.... outside their borders, and often times treat those that enter far worse than even our most deserving criminals. Look at Mexico's southern border for example, where the Mexican government holds illegal immigrants from Guatemala in (from what I have heard) very inhumane "concentration camps" for days or weeks before forcefully returning them to their country.
What frustrates me is that people fail to see that it is because of illegal immigrants that the legal avenues for entering this country are so screwed up. This is as ridiculous to me as having a nation wide protest about making car theft a crime. However, to me the protesters are not just protesting something that should have been done long ago, they are protesting the existence of America, whether they know it or not. Perhaps it is simply because Vicente Fox does not feel like he can take care of his own people that he has encouraged illegal immigration to this country, but the small, usually wrong, conspiracist side of my brain jumps to the idea that it is a very well thought out plan to overrun and eventually capture this country... a Trojan horse if you will. Not that I believe in any way, shape, or form that it is the intent of Mexican citizens entering this country illegally to eventually take it over. I just don't see how a Mexican citizen flying a Mexican flag flying where an American one should be will support us if ever a war did spark between the United States and Mexico. Even if such a war never happens, a ship can only hold so many people before it sinks.
