Reply #3: Is there a reason why those who want to come to this fine Nation can't become legal via the course o [View All]

Because the legal course for citizenship is long, and bureaucratic, and inefficent, and there's a good chance they won't get in regardless of how good they are and meanwhile their kids are going hungry?

"Why is it so difficult to acknowledge that American citizens are feeling as though their country is being stolen, sold, and given away?"

Because I'm an American citizen, and I don't feel that way at all.

"This whole "equal rights for non-citizens' makes me want to weep, truely, for my America."

As an American, I think equal rights are human rights, and inalienable. Not some kind of weird reward I get for being bored here.

"Is there an understanding of 'honor' among the non-citizens, in being called an American?"

I find illegal immigrants are just as American as legal citizens. Usually moreso because of the struggles they went through to get here, they're realizing the American dream. And more honorable, for the same reason.

"No pride and no honor spoken of in the words of those who come here illegally. "

More pride and honor than among the people who tell them to go home.

"I do, hear, however a lot of demands without any show of respect for what my America is."

You know, that's exactly what I think of the anti-immigrant people.
