16. I don't think it's Lou with the problem
I think it's you.

I like Lou and agree with him on illegal immigration. I also agree with Edward Abbey who said the best thing we could do for the illegals is meet each one at the border, give them a rifle and a case of ammunition and send them back home. The Mexicans need to fix whatever is wrong with their country not abandon it.

If they want to come here there's a legal way to do it, period. The law should apply equally to all regardless of skin color. If you don't believe that then you're the racist not the people advocating controlling our borders.

Last night on the UPN Channel 30 news here in Memphis there was a story about an illegal that'd been arrested for DUI. When he was stopped by police he gave them a fake international driver's license he'd bought. Is the media upset because this guy has fostered crime by purchasing a fake ID? No. Are they upset because this guy was in possession of a fake ID? No. Are they upset because when a police officer ask this guy who he was he gave the cop a fake ID? No. Are they upset because this guy was driving drunk and could have killed somebody? No. The reporter was upset because not the illegal is out $120, the amount he claims he paid for the fake ID.

Now honestly, do you think if this guy had been black or white this story would have made the news?
No way.

In my opinion this guy belongs in jail and when he gets out he should be shipped back to Mexico since he has no respect for our laws.
