10. We have no right to deport...
anybody for that matter....

We are all immigrants or decendants of immigrants. I am Italian, French, Spanish, Norweigen, and Dutch. So I consider myself European Latina/Germanic....

Although I do think that we do need to control our borders a bit, I do think that people entering this country illegally should be given a chance to live here and set up roots. We should allow them time to apply for naturalization instead of just yanking them up and deporting them.

My family has had many Hispanic friends in the past, and I enjoyed being with them. I enjoy sharing and learning in others' cultures and I think that people benefit in learning and being multicultural. I personally think that those in office are xenophobic and isolationist, after all what better way to feed false information about the world than to keep all that are different out.

Sorry, I am having a hard time articulating tonight, bleh..
