Jim, Give it a rest. It was a reasonable question.
Al,
As a Brit what I find difficult with your and your supporters stance, is the fact that your country was built on illegal immigrantion. The only reason they got away with it is that at the time there were no laws to declare it illegal; the law was they had guns whereas the indigenous population had bows and arrows.
I am not naive enough to suggest that illegal immigration is not a problem that needs to be addressed but have some empathy for those illegal immigrants, they are only doing what "your" ancestors did.
I have never properly read the whole of the following; they are very powerful words and up until now, to me are synonymous with the USA and what it stands for.
So at the risk of being sanctimonious, and with deepest sincerity that you never have to precede Give with Don’t :-
Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!” cries she
with silent lips. “Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!”
