BTW, the primary difference between the millions of immigrant who came over primarily from 1850 to 1950 and those crossing the U.S. Mexican border now is that the previous immigrants wanted to become Americans - while the majority of Mexican immigrants now want to retain their Mexican citizenship. Totally different. Permanent legal immigration should be a privilege reserved for those who want to come here and become part of America - not for those who want to just earn money to send back to their family in Mexico and/or extend Mexico into the U.S. For those who want to come over here legally, become patriotic Americans, and pay taxes, I have no problem welcoming them, but that's not the case with most of them.

Nicely stated Hawk. Nicely stated
