So her entire family took part in this illegal, criminal act? Yet some still want us to feel sorry for their crimes?

If my Mom dropped me into the backyard of the royal family it doesn't make me royalty. No matter how long I managed to hide.

Are we supposed to feel sorry for this chick? Sorry,no. I wonder if that fake SS number she bought was stolen.

These articles and stories seem so common these days. I am a compassionate person, I love people, but I don't see the point anymore in these types of articles. We already know that there are people who will be victims to their parent's illegal immigration. What are we supposed to do? Excuse everyone that is here illegally because of these situations? Is there a cutoff point? Who gets pardoned, who doesn't? You know?

You gotta love the artistic offering of the U.S. flag on her nails. There's always some attempt to create the feel of patriotism by the "Unwelcomed Illegal Immigrant Who Just Wants a Better Life" in these stories. Sometimes it is the sad-looking illegal immigrant draped by a U.S. flag as he/she seems to plead to the camera: "Let me stay." Then you will see them two weeks later at the rally with the flag of their native country as they shout "Who is the real immigrant (in reference to European settlers)."

What sickens me even more is when they post pictures of their children draped in the flag, crying or some other sad forelorn look in their eyes like we are the big meanies. They use these kids to play on our sypathies. Sorry, it doesn't work on me.

I agree. There were so many assumptions in that article that are just wrong in so many ways that I could have quoted, but it becomes overwhelming when reading this BS sometimes.

It's funny how we never read about one of the "cast offs" doing something to right the situation besides trying to force an amnesty. Why not?

The slimiest lawyers of all lawyers nowdays are the immigration lawyers. They'll even lie to illegals about ways to get their papers without doing things the right way, suggest sham marriage - everything just to rake in money from this.

I tried to bleed from my heart, but the darn liquid just stays trapped inside the chambers and blood vessels
