IMMIGRATION: Immigrants want jobs
Published on Dec 11, 2007
I couldn't help but be upset about Daren Longo's December 5 letter. The "illegal aliens" want to play by the rules and become citizens, learn the language, and pay their taxes in the county that gives them a job, a home, and food for them and their families.
They don't do it because they can't: the current laws don't let them. Give them the choice, and most of them happily would do as your fine ancestors did.
And don't even mention that some of them even defend and die for the country (your country) they live in. How's that for a freeload? Pretty unfortunate comment.
