News Leader wants to give them all a big hug

Re: Revoking birthright citizenship is not a solution
I really believe the News Leader staff missed the point on this one. How can we as a country continue to allow the wave of illegals to poor in on a daily basis. Mr. Tancredo is doing us all a huge favor if he gets this billed passed. The key to the whole thing is "if your parents are here illegally, then the welcome mat is pulled out". Legal immigrants is what this country is about. Not midnight dashes across the border to take American jobs and to drain American resources like healthcare and welfare. It cost taxpayers an estimated 75 billion dollars a year for free education, medical cost, and incarceration of illegals. Not for legal but illegal immigrants. Nearly 30% of those in our federal prison system are illegals. In Missouri alone it cost us 1.4 million to incarcerate these illegal immigirants. This law would curb this cancerous trend and keep America safe and jobs secure.

As for the Constitution argument well if your staff had did some more research you’d find that the 14th amendment was never leagally ratified and thus should not even be considered valid by real American’s. As to the Supreme Court case in 1898 that was a specific case and court opinions are not meant to be law but merely a judgement for the parties in the case. So the News Leader’s View is not and should not be seen as a good idea. What America needs now is to stop being the police for the world and start providing a good life to its citizens at home.
