The real issue with Illegal Aliens.

And I do NOT mean little green men! No really the issue that really becomes a problem with regards to illegal Aliens is that they are exploiting this nation without giving anything back. We are a nation of immigrants and most of us have somewhere in our past an ancestor or two who came to this country from another nation. For example one of my great Grandfathers came from the United Kingdom, My last name shows that I have some one in my history who is from Scotland and My Grandmother could easily trace her ancestry to Feudal Germany. Immigrants (also once “Aliens” to this land) make up the genetic ancestry almost all the population of this nation. The thing is that my ancestors came to this country L-E-G-A-L-L-Y they went through the processes that allowed them to become good citizens of this nation. At least in part because of that I LOVE the United States of America. I have served in our nations armed forces, I have obeyed her laws, I have voted my conscience and I have paid my taxes. In short I have contributed to my country and faithfully served her. I am proud to fly the Flag of this nation alongside the flag of my home state as well as next to the flag of my faith. I would stand to defend all the rights and privileges which are assured to those who are citizens of this nation and I would serve to protect people from tyranny because of the values that this country has given me. I have heard many people who support illegal aliens in our nation declare that “they all have the same rights we do.” Well that is not true. The rights we share are rights we receive because this nation guarantees them to her citizenry. We, as citizens, work and serve to have this nation grow stronger. No illegal alien does this. They do not join the military here, they do not pay the taxes… they are, supposedly, ineligible to vote. Many of them despise this nation. Think I am blowing smoke? I have heard illegal aliens declare exactly that! I even heard ONE guy declare that he came here on a student visa when it expired he just stayed (admitting that he is illegal) then he said straight up “I HATE this country.” (yes he did emphasize the HATE part). He went on to admit that he was getting paid better than he could “back home” and that he had better health care and benefits here than he could have where he came from. But then he followed by saying AGAIN that he absolutely, unequivocally HATES the U.S. he wishes that we would all die and go away. Even had I not met people like this guy, I would still be able to look at their actions and see it for myself. They do not honor this country in word or deed. They do not fight for this country and when push comes to shove they are the first to either abandon this country that has nurtured them or they are the first to whine and throw a hissy fit about what THEY are losing. In fact they keep showing their contempt for this nation by refusing to honor the American flag but insisting that they ought to be allowed to fly the flag of their “real” country. I can hear it now, “but shouldn’t they be proud of their heritage?” or “you are being so racist.” Really? I can be proud of my heritage and I am! I celebrate the holidays of my heritage. I have celebrated Oktoberfest AND Guy Fawkes day (look em up!), I have gone to Scottish Festivals and attended Robert Burn’s nights, I have stood in honor and respect for the anthem “God save the Queen”. I AM proud of my heritage. But I fly the flag of my nation. The United States of America! And I honor and support this nation because she is my homeland. Illegal aliens do not do these things they want to love their countries and that is fine but if they are going to do that then they ought to go back to the places that they love so much. I do not say this from malice or hate I am simply pointing out that if there is a place that I love and honor then I would want to be in that place. They refuse to do this though. They are more like parasites like mosquitoes or ticks, which feed off of the host animal and then move on. Some of those bugs leave behind disease like Lyme or Malaria. A lot of these illegal aliens are here with an agenda. That agenda is purely criminal. It is a disease! Their agenda is to bring in drugs or to kidnap people or even to kill people. They bring hurt and pain and suffering. And the worst part of it is there are people in this country who think we ought to let them have free reign to do what they want. Kind of like a doctor who, on finding out that the patient is covered with ticks, tells the patient “No Don’t remove the ticks… in fact you need to go strip naked and lie in a field FULL of ticks and let more attach themselves to you.” If he was a good doctor the first thing he would do is get rid of the ticks you have, then he would test you for Lyme Disease; then he would advise you to keep away from that field or at least wear proper clothing and bug repellent so they stay away from you. That is what our government is failing to do right now. It is the bad doctor in the scenario presented just now. We need a good doctor. One who will do what is needed to protect our nation from the onslaught of corruption and crime that is bringing us down. In fact what we need for this doctor to do is to allow the natural defenses of this nation to work as they are intended to. Let the laws that are in place do the job they were designed for don’t hinder them through suppression and opposition. Let the people have their will done, as long as it is within the constitutional boundaries. Those are like the immune system in our bodies and it can be quite effective when it is allowed to work. But he could do more by encouraging the system to work right, kind of like an inoculation. Unfortunately we have not got that happening and that is something that I feel we sorely need right now. Well, Until next time…
