These are bright kids with few resources, whose only "crime" is that their parents brought them across the border illegally. Why should their talents be wasted just because they were born in another country through no fault of their own? |
I watched my extended family slowly come here over 2 decades. I also watched other family members come on tourist visas and then stay and then demand services when they needed them. The people I have the most respect for are those that did it the proper way.
IMO there are plenty of legal ways to get here, otherwise why should people bother to "do the right thing" if other people can short circuit the process?
