Illegal Immigration: Babies, Burglars and Accomplices.
By G.D. Pennington

Immigrants made this country great. Invaders are trying to steal it, and believe it or not, there are citizens that would help them.

Bringing a baby home is an immigration process of sorts. There is some pain associated with the process; the baby comes with limited communication skills, but with a tremendous capacity to learn. A civilized society has also developed a set of rules and a path for integration. Babies turn into children and children go to school. They learn the language; get the required vaccinations, etc. They learn how to become productive people in a productive society. They learn to help those who cannot help themselves.

Invaders are thieves. It isn’t complicated. Invaders are criminals. Invaders are not “undocumented” or “guest workers.” Above all, invaders are not immigrants. Invaders are every citizen’s enemy. The invader in 2005 is not wielding a sword or bringing cannon to our borders, but they are invading. They are stealing our healthcare. They are educating their children at our expense and depriving our children of the education we could be providing were it not for the invaders. They are criminally trespassing. They are driving unlicensed, uninsured, unregistered vehicles and are unable to read simple traffic signs. The invaders have false identification, false Social Security documents and free access to our public transportation, not to mention the public water supply. They learn to become more effective thieves as they find the programs in our society designed to assist those who cannot help themselves. Invaders are the enemy.

The immigrant population is likely one of the hardest hit by the invading enemy. While the invaders clearly do the most damage to people who are unable to help themselves, i.e. the mentally and/or physically impaired, the immigrants are next highest on the list of victims. The people who come to America as welcome visitors and decide to stay without following the rules are criminals. The people who sneak like thieves in the night across the borders are the same criminals. America is a nation of immigrants, but not a nation of criminals. If people are looking twice at your documents and impatient with your English skills and looking at you like they want you to get the heck out of our country, it is because of the invaders. People who are being robbed don’t care where you came from or what you look like; they just want you to stop stealing from them. Make no mistake; America has no lack of domestic leaches. Anyone advocating the importation of more criminal leaches should have to directly feed, clothe and shelter a domestic leach for a minimum of ten years, before advocating the importation of criminal leaches aloud and in public.

There is a segment of the American citizenry more damaging to the country than the invading population of so-called illegal immigrants. They are more dangerous, too. They welcome anarchy under the guise of tolerance. With no tolerance of dissenting opinion they wave the flag of tolerance in defense of anarchy. No rules. We should give invading hoards driver’s licenses and college tuition. No kidding. Ignore our laws, sneak into our country, and win a prize. Not jail-time or exportation, but the tax dollars of the citizens and legal immigrants of this still-free society.

It is every parents’ responsibility to raise their children to know right from wrong; rewarding merit and punishing unacceptable behavior. Those who would reward invaders with a stolen education for the children of invaders, teach all children to steal. Those who would reward invaders with free healthcare are not only teaching children to steal, but they put everyone’s healthcare at risk. Those who would welcome criminal invaders into our society teach the children that our laws are unimportant and that there is no value in being a citizen of the United States of America. Before we teach our children that citizenship is valueless, let’s vote on it.
