  DREAMer Guest Post: Piash

  I am American - Cherokee on one side, and naturalized Croation on the other side. I do resent being portrayed as xenophobic and "nativist" simply because I believe in the sovereignty of the US, and it's borders, just a strongly as any other country believes in protecting their sovereignty and borders. I wouldn't be able to go to another country and essentially "squat" there and demand people speak my language, provide assistance to me, in my language, and keep me healthy, etc.- and yet this is the continued demand of undocumented peoples from all over the world. My great grand parents came here in 1912, and went through the proper channels, wading through the period government red tape with no more than a grade school education. Somehow - and against much fiercer bigotry than is even allowed in todays PC society- they prevailed; learned english, worked, retired from Ford motor company in Detroit - they assimilated. I just can't relate to todays "gimme" culture especially coming from people who are not citizens of the country from which they are demanding services and rights. So...I guess not the comment you wanted, but there it is.

  The Criminal Justice System's Continued Failure to Handle Mental Illness

  I hate to say this, but the criminal justice system shouldn't have to deal with mental illness - that's the job of social services. If S.S. did their job then law enforcement and criminal justice wouldn't be burdened trying to deal with something it wasn't designed to handle.
