[QUOTE="rawhide, post: 3075544, member: 3448"] My initial reaction to the status of illegal immigrants has always been similar to some posted here. But, as Dave has pointed out, I think it's more complicated than "send them back" regardless of how they got here and I'm undecided what the best course going forward should be. Some questions to add to the discussion: What should happen to a "Dreamer" that came to this country as a minor at no choice of their own, is now an adult and has dependent children that are citizens by birth? Or, is married to a citizen? Gainfully employed and no criminal record? Has a history as a minor and as an adult that they are a positive asset to their community? I not ready to ignore their illegal status and grant them the ability to vote and serve on a jury. But, I'm also not ready to put them into the same boat and ship them out without regard for their actions as an adult. [/QUOTE]
