LA SHAWN BARBER COMMENTARY: A Nation Of Outlaws

The conservative blogger argues that America has been invaded by an army of illegal immigrants, who have more rights than American citizens: "Illegal immigration costs American taxpayers billions of dollars each year. In California alone the cost is $10.5 billion annually. The price tag for the rest of the country, especially border states, is incomprehensible. Illegal immigration is also a public safety risk because aliens do not undergo a medical screening before entering the United States. As a result, diseases once eradicated or virtually eradicated have resurfaced in America. Where is the so-called protection we’re entitled to as American citizens?....What would the American founders say about the state of our country? One of them, President John Adams, made a prediction about the collapse of democracy. 'It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet that did not commit suicide.' Illegal immigration has burdened America and changed our culture for the worse, and our own government refuses to do anything about it. We are no longer a nation ruled by the people and for the people. We are a nation of outlaws."
