  I'm a U.S. Citizen and my Wife Was Deported

  Making me the villian won't wash. Attacking me for standing up for my country's sovereignty, its Constitution, and the rule of law does make me the bad guy. People that have no respect for this country that subvert its laws undermine the very prize that glistens in their eyes; the American dream.

  
  

  Misapplying the 14th Amendment claiming these children are U.S. Citizens is a LIE. No matter how many times people tell that lie, it is still a lie.

  
  

  People certainly do take advantage of illegal alien foreign nationals. The grubby lawyers and churches that teach them how to avoid the rule of law are breaking the law themselves. Businesses that abuse illegal aliens and exploit them are scum. What would happen if the millions of Mexican citizens that illegally invaded the United States would have instead united to end the corruption in their home country instead fleeing it?

  
  

  Look at Cuba. Generations of Cubans continue to suffer under the repressive, abusive Castro regime because their parents failed to stand up against the tyrannt. They doom their children and grand children to more of the same. Mexican citizens are following that same failed model. Flee instead of fix. Ignore instead of admit. Flight over fight.

  
  

  It's easy to be brave looking down your noses at Americans. We won't whisk you off to a gulag for speaking your mind. We are a kind and generous people, but there are limits to that generosity.

  
  

  Cowards make all sorts of excuses for not doing what is right. Sob stories about the abuses of children initiated by their parents is an indictment of the parents' poor judgment, not a reflection of the citizens whose country they have invaded who want the rule of law to prevail.

  
  

  The United States does not have to spiral down the rabbit hole into a chaotic 3rd World has-been nation, unable to defend itself, let alone help anyone else.

  
  

  Were we just talking about a few people, Americans might look the other way, but we've been down that path again and again. At some point, unlike the foreign nationals flooding our shores, we will stand up to defend our borders, our sovereignty, and the rule of law.

  
  

  American citizens who believe in the Constitution and the rule of law know what the dream is, and it's no act.

  
  

  Trying to imply I'm a racist is a lame, absurd joke, but let's say for the sake of discussion that I was.

  
  

  Would I not still be justified in demanding the laws be enforced, or that the Constitution be upheld?

  
  

  You can't have my cake, and eat it too, and then blame me because you have no respect for what you're stealing, or who you stole it from.

  
  

  I don't have time to save Mexico. I'm rather busy trying to save my own country. My patriotism and loyalty to my country does not mean I agree with everything my government is doing. I most certainly do not. The more people ignore the corruption in our own government, the faster we sink into the same corrupt, chaotic nightmare that illegal alien foreign nationals claim they are fleeing from.

  
  

  I refuse to sit idly by why usurpers and thugs destroy the fabric of my country. It is naive to believe there are no consequencs to a reckless ideology that America should forget she is America. Freedom is not free, and those who suggest we should give citizenship away like mints at the bank are suggesting we give away our country to people who don't respect or understand what it represents.

  
  

  It's appropriate that the Dream Act is titled as such. It is a dream, and it is an act.

  
  

  The fruits of liberties labor are not a dream, and acting like you respect our country when you really don't is disgusting. Illegal means illegal. The Constitution still governs supreme over the United States, and will be restored.

  
  

  Many of us are working to restore our country. What are you illegal alien foreign nationals, and your sympathizers doing to restore your countries to safe and prosperous places to live?

  
  

  Stop making excuses for invading the United States and blaming it on its citizens. The king's new clothes are as ugly as they ever were. Go home. Organize there to end the corruption there. Mexico is a beautiful country. It is the richest 3rd World economy on the planet. You can't make ends meet? You can't turn things around? Not if you flee instead of fighting for your rights. Human rights should be at the forefront of everyone's thoughts and actions.

  
  

  Foreign nationals have civil rights in the country whose jurisdiction they are subject to as citizens. That is NOT the United States. Immigrants and illegal aliens are not the same demographic. Stop insulting legal immigrants by clumping them into a pile with illegal aliens. You should be ashamed.

  I'm a U.S. Citizen and my Wife Was Deported

  Citizenship matters. Anya's mother commited a crime and Anya's mother chose to burden her child with being stranded in a foreign country. Anya is apparently a citizen of the Ukraine, not a U.S. Citizen. If we ignore Anya's mother's crime, are we not rewarding criminal activity? Are we not then encouraging other foreigners to come to the United States illegally in the hopes of getting their children U.S. citizenship?

  
  

  At what point do the citizens of other countries assume some responsibility for the situation in their own country? If citizens of other countries like the freedoms and liberties that our Constitution guarantees, why don't they work towards establishing liberty and justice in their own countries?

  
  

  It is ridiculous to think the United States can accomodate everybody on the planet that wants to come live here. The United States already allows more "legal" immigration than the rest of the world combined!

  
  

  Look at the raw numbers and it becomes clear quickly that if the United States does not get control of its borders and start enforcing its immigration laws, that in just a few decades the United States will become a 3rd World country.

  
  

  Peoples of the world look to the United States and admire and lust after the opportunites here... opportunites that only exist because of the Constitution and the "rule of law," yet they rook-and-crook the system, subverting our laws, snubbing their nose at our Constitution, and ply on our sympathies for their own personal gain, with no consideration for what this mindset is doing to the country they lust after.

  
  

  Simply put: everybody on the planet can NOT migrate to the United States. The citizens of the United States are the most generous people the world has ever known, but there is a limit to that generosity. We MUST put our own families, communities, and country first.

  
  

  Anya's mother came here as a "guest," over-stayed her welcome, and gambled with her own child's future by keeping her in a foreign country in direct violation of the laws of that country. Anya's mother is the villian here, NOT the United States, NOT Immigration Customs Enforcement, and certainly NOT the Unites States citizens who rightfully expect the "rule of law" to prevail.

  
  

  Debra Hahn's son "chose" to marry an illegal alien foreign national. He also gambled with his own future and happiness. The United States is a sovereign, not governed by the "whims of men," but by the rule of law.

  
  

  Elected officials have a sworn obligation to uphold the Constitution, the rule of law, and to put the best interests of the citizens of the United States first and foremost.

  
  

  Much like the oath men and women take upon entering into marriage, there is a sacred pact and trust between "We the People" and the people we elect.

  
  

  Lawyers that attempt to subvert the rule of law by promoting sob stories from criminal foreign nationals who subverted our laws do a dis-service to their oath to uphold the rule of law.

  
  

  Do we allow criminals to simply go free because their children might be disadvantaged by enforcing the law? The laws apply to everyone, not just those without children.

  
  

  Parents who act irresponsibly are to blame for burdens imposed on their children. We simply cannot reward the illegal actions of Anya's mother by granting her amnesty. Call it what you will; that is what it would be.

  
  

  In the bigger scheme of things, what message are we sending future foreigners who cast a gleenful eye at the United States? If we do not enforce our immigration laws, we are sending a message to other irresponsible gamblers like Anya's mother that they too can come to America under false pretense, or over-stay their welcome here, and their children will get a 'free pass' because everyone knows we don't enforce our immigration laws.

  
  

  This behavior is irresponsible, and perpetuates more of the same. Anya should be mad at her mother, not the U.S. Debra should be mad at her son for setting himself up to be potentially separated from his illegal alien foreign national fiance/wife.

  
  

  The Dream Act is a "nightmare" for U.S. Citizens who are themselves trying to make a future for their own children. The Dream Act is a betrayal of the sworn obligations of elected officials to uphold the Constitution, to protect us against invasion as Article IV, Section 4 guarantees.

  
  

  In 1986, the U.S. granted amnesty for millions of illegal aliens and their families, and the flood of illegal aliens into our country increased.

  
  

  In 1996, the U.S. granted amnesty for millions of illegal aliens and their families, and the flood of illegal aliens into our country increased yet again, with the citizens of foreign countries believing they need only get their foot on U.S. soil before the next amnesty came around.

  
  

  Here we are 13 years later, and our short memories are setting us up for another amnesty. Each time we "supposedly" fixed the problem, we failed yet again to actually fund and enforce our laws.

  
  

  Now we have tens of millions of illegal alien foreign nationals and their children whining and pining for us to once again ignore the rule of law, and to ignore the Constitution.

  
  

  Enough is enough! We need to start enforcing our immigration laws, deporting illegal alien foreign nationals, securing our borders and ports of entry, and reducing legal immigration to levels that are in the best interest of the American people.

  
  

  We also need to start punishing insurrectionist lawyers who pervert the legal system and the rule of law by twisting the truth to suit their goals, filling their pockets with monies extorted from foreigners that are trying to subvert our legal system for personal gain.
