while I think this is a rather low level issue, the issue that has me really wondering and concerned about where this country is headed is not civil rights or the patriot act. Its the accumulative toll of tens of millions of illegal aliens roaming all over the countryside. In my view its not hard to imagine losing control of sectors of the country when you essemtially do not have control over the border. It's an issue with multi-faceted effects on the country from national security, cultural, and economic and on down the line.
anyway, that discussion is for another thread.

ArlJim 78,
I agree with you that it is nice to express differing opinions in a civilized manner.
I'm really not sure about your "take" on "illegal aliens". I chose to call them immigrants (it's less disparaging and not racist).
You're probably correct that this subject deserves its own thread.
In the meanwhile, please read Leviticus 19: 33+34, and also familiarize yourself with how indigenous people, such as the Cherokees, were dealt with
by immigrants (self appointed "legal") and th consequences.
See also: Trail of Tears, Andrew Jackson.
Also, do you think that the people of Iraq consider Americans to be illegal invaders? Just curious.
Thanks for your thoughts.
Let's keep it civil. Facts on topic, not personal "garbage".
