What's amazing to me is how complicated the government and some people want to make it seem when in actuality it's a very simple concept.

They also want to paint those against illegal immigration as racist and anti immigration then bring up that this is a country of immigrants. Well basically every country is a country is a country of immigrants.

Immigration is great and many of my friends are immigrants. They did it the correct and legal way while also supporter the US and not staying beholden to their own country of origin.

The other argument is the one how the illegals do the jobs that US citizens won't do. This is one of the biggest lies there is. Many will do the jobs but cannot afford to work for the wages that illegals do. When the illegals keep all of their income plus the hand outs they get from the government compared to a citizen who pays 25% in taxes and must cover their own food and medical costs, it doesn't even compare.

You take a guy that makes 30k per year, then take out 6k for medical, 7.5k for taxes, 12k for rent/mortgage, another 3k for food, then the other miscellaneous expense he has nothing left.

Well take an illegal, they may make 20k in cash, 0k to taxes, 0k to health care, 0k to food (food stamps/welfare covers this) then add in subsidized housing, they still end up with at least 15k a year for whatever while the citizen who supposedly makes more ends up with zero.

Proponents of amnesty want to make things more complicated when in reality it's simple math and economics. Just like figuring debt and budgets. Many in the government would try to convince you that government debt is somehow healthy and/or different from personal debt. It's BS, debt is debt and the borrower is ALWAYS slave to the lender. Not too mention the government is creating the same scenario that caused Enron and many others to collapse and the government can and will collapse. If the numbers don't add up at the end of the day you have a problem.

Then get down to profiling. Profiling is a key law enforcement tool and it's absolutely naive to see it any other way. Take me for example:

If the cops get a report that a 30-40 year old Caucasian male with a bald head and goatee approximately 5'10" to 6'10" just robbed a convenience store and was seen going south or north street in a black SUV, I can find it reasonable that the police would pull me over in my black 4runner if I was anywhere in the area. Would I like it, no. Would I understand it, yes. Would I complain and whine because it happened, no. I would be happy the police were doing their jobs well.

Same goes with border protection. If your on the southern border you will be looking more at people of Latin and Middle Eastern descent. If you are on the northern border you will look more at people of European/Caucasian as well as other descent.

If you are in the airport you sure as heck should not be wasting time looking at little old ladies in wheel chairs.

Again, profiling is just one of many tools in the law enforcement arsenal used to fight crime.
