I'm fed up with the feds treating law-abiding, U.S. citizens like
criminals while letting the real criminals come and go at will across
our borders.


I'm fed up that I need to lock my doors against the criminals.

truth be told, we only lock our doors when we're away for 24 hours and
only because my wife is nervous.

Our neighbors know us well, they've a good idea of most of our friends,
and it's okay for them to ask questions of possible intruders, and okay
that they call the cops if they're nervous. They will (have) call us if
they have any question, will (have) call the police if we we don't
respond directly.

I agree that foreigners in the US without the relatively minimal
paperwork required should be returned while they get their act together.

Much as I feel for the Cubans and other protected illegals, I far would
prefer allowing educated and intelligent migrants into the US without
documentation.
