What's your suggestion. Oh, that's right, the problem is too complicated
for you to comprehend or address.

If you are not willing to participate then go watch TV.

Become a citizen and then get the law changed.

Where do you "b) drive them out of the area" to? Aren't you just making
them someone else's problem rather than actually fixing the problem?

The newsreader I use has a habit of only grabbing part of the previous
content when I click on follow up so I choose to only include the most
recent information. If you want to follow the entire thread then you can
refer to the headers to get the information that you so desperately
seek.

The issue is what is your solution to the illegal immigration problem.
You failure to propose a solution is telling of your desire to not
address the problem. My solution is just a starting point, a point from
one perspective to start the discussion. You fail to participate in the
discussion.

Propose a solution. Saying the problem is too big and too complicated is
a cop out.

> You're a cretin and a fool.

At leat I am willing to do something about problems.

You don't know if there is a simple answer. You reject all possibilities
except open borders.
