thank you, thank you, thank you! finally someone gets it!
seriously, it is such crap that illegal immigrants are allowed to stay while people who are struggling to come here legally are not even allowed in sometimes. i personally know several families from china where, the wives and children were allowed over but the fathers have been waiting over TEN YEARS to be able to join their families.
wow... armed with what cell phones and binoculars? or are you talking about the armed drug smugglers and sometimes even Mexican troops who violate our borders?
honestly i don't have a problem with the individuals who come here illegally, i understand they are trying to create a better life for themselves and their families, and honestly if i were in their shoes i would probably do the same. however we have immigration regulations set up for a reason, those rules need to be followed.
also: there is some relevancy to this guys immigration status in what happened. you have a guy who is over here away from his family, his life basically consists of working, often hard manual labor. and getting together with a few friends and drinking. not to mention he is coming from a culture where a big measure of manhood is how much you can drink.
I'm not saying legal citizens don't kill anyone driving drunk. however the guys circumstances and the culture he is coming from to make a difference when taken into account. also simply put, he was not supposed to be here, if he was not here this would not have happened. period.
