Legals vs Illegals

This letter is in response to Nancy Street’s letter found in the August 1, 2024 edition of the Gazette. Growing up, and even now, I know of no illegal immigrant offspring. My grandpa came from Ireland to find work and we, his descendants, were fortunate enough to be born American. All I ever knew until politics got in the way a few years ago was immigrant because all those who came this way obeyed U.S. laws, studied and took the test, and became Americans.

In your naming of several prominent Republicans their immigrant wives, the you ask, “Who have I missed?”. Well you missed the Democrats who I’m sure have a few immigrant spouses and what’s wrong with that? They are all legal immigrants who I’m sure, if they haven’t yet, will soon become Americans.

I won’t question your statistics because I want to get to the group of immigrants who, for the last four years, have poured over our borders with no intention of following any of our laws to become American citizens. Therefore they are invaders who are supported by the Democratic Administration of Obama (Joe has been incapacitated since before he was elected and Obama wants them here to help vote-in the next Democrat for President he can run her also). I recorded the National Republican Convention and the mass deportation signs and anti-immigrant speech tones were all about the invaders, not the immigrants.
