How can Americans possibly expect illegal immigrants
to follow our laws when our own government keeps breaking them and international laws? I'm sure some illegal immigrants like the idea of coming to a country where the most crooked and wicked among us can rise all the way to the top. Not the kind of person I want in my country, but this the most corrupt 'lead by scandal/example' Administration yet so why not.

1. So if your child tells you he shoplifted some candy
...because his friends told him they always do it without getting caught, that's okay with you? You'd give him an 'atta boy' and send him on his way?

2. Not the same situation, you oversimplify a complex issue.
So you compare illegal immigrants to children?

3. Yeah that's right
How dare you over simplify the over simplification of the Original Poster! Remember two oversimplifications don't make an undersimplification!

4. You stated the terms
But I'll give a better example. If your boss breaks the law by embezzling company money, do you feel you that gives you the right to break into a stranger's house and make yourself at home?

5. They are coming from a place that is even more corrupt than ours, believe
it or not.
