If Selena was US born and had to learn to sing in Spanish, why is she associated with Sanctuary.

Keep it legal, please.

So now there are so many illegal immigrants that they are lobbying for more illegal immigration and amnesties. US immigration policy should be designed to benefit US citizens, not illegals. We are long overdue for a points-based system like Canada and other sane countries, and long overdue for a serious crackdown on border jumpers and birth tourism.

Oh Mon Ray the US does not have open borders but is in desperate need of a coherent fair immigration policy.
The US can’t support its hungry and sick because it spends gobs of our money on a wasteful military and never ending wars built on lies. And of course welfare in the form of tax cuts for the very wealthy.

Reputable sources estimate that there are 10-22 MILLION illegal immigrants in the US.
I believe most Americans welcome LEGAL immigrants, but do not want ILLEGAL immigrants. They recognize that the US cannot afford (or choose not) to support our own citizens: the poor, the ill, elderly, disabled, veterans, et al., and that they and other US taxpayers cannot possibly support the hundreds of millions of foreigners who would like to come here, especially if they are likely to be dependent on taxpayer support (i.e., to become public charges).
US laws allow foreigners to seek entry and citizenship. Those who do not follow these laws are in this country illegally and should be detained and deported; this is policy in other countries, too.
The cruelty lies not in limiting legal immigration, or detaining and deporting illegal immigrants, or forcing those who wish to enter the US to wait for processing. What is cruel, unethical and probably illegal is encouraging parents to bring their children on the dangerous trek to US borders and teaching the parents how to game the system to enter the US by falsely claiming asylum, persecution, etc. Indeed, many believe bringing children on such perilous journeys constitutes child abuse.
No other nation has open borders, nor should the US.
