| 29. Well, if they enter the country illegally |
|
to begin with, how is that "trying to abide by our laws"?
Don't you think that the first requirement for a good potential citizen (or a well-behaved visitor) should be that they respect the laws of the country they're visiting or living in? And shouldn't that apply even to the laws that they don't understand, think are silly, think shouldn't apply to them, or are inconvenient to obey?
