I think this is a good example of the illegal immigration issue and worth
passing on.

>>
>>
>>             Certain people are angry that
>>             the US might protect its own
>>             borders, might make it harder
>>             to sneak into this country and,
>>             once here, to stay indefinitely.
>>
>>             Let me see if I correctly understand
>>             the thinking behind these protests.
>>              Let's say I break into your house.
>>             Let's say that when you discover
>>             me in your house, you insist that I leave.
>>
>>             But I say, "I've made all
>>             the beds and washed the
>>             dishes and did the laundry
>>             and swept the floors.  I've
>>             done all the things you don't
>>             like to do.  I'm hard-working
>>              and honest
>>             (except for when I broke into your house).
>>
>>             According to the protesters:
>>
>>             You are Required to let me stay in your house
>>             You are Required to add me to your family's insurance plan
>>             You are Required to Educate my kids
>>             You are Required to Provide other benefits to me & to my
family
>>
>>             (my husband will do all of your yard work because
>>             he is also hard-working and honest, except for that
>>             breaking in part).
>>
>>             If you try to call the police or force me out,
>>             I will call my friends who will picket your
>>             house carrying signs that proclaim my
>>             RIGHT to be there.
>>
>>
>>             It's only fair, after all, because you have
>>             a nicer house than I do, and I'm just
>>             trying to better myself.  I'm a hard-working
>>             and honest, person, except for well,
>>             you know, I did break into your house
>>
>>             And what a deal it is for me!!!
>>
>>             I live in your house, contributing only a
>>             fraction of the cost of my keep, and
>>             there is nothing you can do about it
>>             without being accused of cold,
>>             uncaring, selfish, prejudiced, and
>>             bigoted behavior.
>>
>>             Oh yeah, I DEMAND that you to learn
>>             MY LANGUAGE!!! so you can
>>             communicate with me.
