Immigration is a hot potato these days. Moreover, some cities have enacted a return to the third world program, with the illusion of deporting illegal immigrants by voluntary means. Will any illegal immigrant find this lunatic program attractive? Not even the most ignorant. Who wants to go back to the third world? Not even the prisoners of Guantanamo.
It is obvious that this policy targets the Hispanic community, which is the biggest minority of the nation, with over 39 million people. Nevertheless it is difficult to judge the overall contribution of Hispanics to this great nation; some are highly educated, while others can’t read or write. In other words, some are brilliant and some are just criminals. But it is not the US fault, but our own. Why do we let brainless figures like Chavez, illiterates like Evo, morons like Correa, and sexually abusers like Ortega rule the destiny of our countries? Blame it on us, or better off blame it on the Spaniards who colonized Latin America.
There is a big misconception among pro immigrants however. The US was not built by immigrants, but by settles who came with their families escaping, not the ignorance and poverty of the third world, but from religion persecution. Americans, like any other country, have the right to choose who comes and who goes. But it must be a fair game, and not roulette where the mood of an immigration officer dictates the faith of a human being and his family.
The immigration system has collapsed. People who deserved to be here, thanks to their skills and education, are being forced to leave. On the other hand, some lucky immigrants get green cards just by stepping their ignorant feet on American soil.
Good Lord, please forbid the wet feet, dry feet law.
