It is something that is long overdue. However, we shall see just how far Richardson goes with it.

Never said it did, but it doesnt make your comment about us all being immigrants right either.
there's nothing wrong with saying we're all immigrants. in a sense, it's true. if you cant's see that that than..  he didnt say we're all illegal immigrants. there is a difference ya know.

Then get out...
I'm an American citizen, born and raised here. My parents didn't immigrate here, my grandparents didn't immigrate here, nor did my great-grandparents. As for my past family immigrating here, it was a LONG FREAKIN TIME AGO, and I had nothing to do with it. As for the American Indian stuff, they are actually "immigrants" to. They didn't just POP onto American soil.
As for 'illegal' immigrants, they certainly don't need to be used for Sniper Practice, but they certainly do not need to be given rights and privileges granted to American citizens. They need to be arrested like the criminals they are and deported back to their country of origin. If they want to cross the border, do it legally. I see no reason to put to shame all the efforts made by millions of legal immigrants to become full and proper standing citizens of this great country.

Did you immigrate here from somewhere else? I know I didnt. So how does that make me an immigrant? And yes I know whtere is a difference between legal and illegal immigrants. I am neither. I'm an American. Born and rasied here. Thanks.

Alot of the now legal immigrants were once illegal immigrants, it just takes many many years and some luck to become legal. But i see your point.

I doubt he meant it literally, hence: "in a sense". Being American has nothing to do with the fact that pretty much everyone, or their descendants, migrated over here at one time or another.

Which still means they broke the law and they should be PUNISHED for it, not rewarded with citizenship.

Way to take the topic off topic...If being a proponent of a nations' laws is Biblical, which it is, then reevaluate your statement. I believe that we are to uphold the laws of the land, including those that govern who comes into our country. We have laws designed to make passage into our country safe and legal. But this topic was not brought up to discuss the Biblical principles founded in watching our borders and making decisions about who can come in and who can't, this topic was designed to speak about illegal immigration and Fox's decision. If you want to speak about the Biblical principles that could apply to this, start another topic...
