So "amnesty and enforcement" will, again, become just "amnesty." And we repeat the cycle as we spin to lower and lower standards of living for the hardest hit of our citizenry.

I didn't breed them. Maybe the parents should have thought about the consequences of their crime instead of expecting "The State" to bail them out. Yet another expense of illegal immigration we all bear unfairly. Using their own kids as a "human shield" to justify breaking the law is despicable. Get real folks... the logical endpoint of open borders is equalization of the standard of living. Do you really want to live to the average north American standard? There would be civil war long before the average US citizen were reduced to that level of poverty. By adding yet another cycle of amnesty and future illegal immigration, we take another giant leap toward that end game. Examine the numbers of theat future state and think ahrd about whether you reallty want to go there. It makes the current recession look like boomtown, folks. Does no one pay attention in economics and government classes in school any more? “And who will be taking care of their children who are citizens, spine?”

While this may be true, consider this: According to the Public Policy Institute of California, 29% of the population is African American and only 7% of the population in California is African American. There clearly is a bigger crime threat here. Should we not allow African Americans into the state? (I'm just saying this for effect and dont mean this in one bit.) I dont buy the claim that illegal immigrants is a source for out-of-control crime. Maybe we should be looking at our own citizens to prevent crime.
