The Fall of America - Immigration Raids

Cruelty to families knows no bounds in the Bush Administration, apparently. Why deport working aliens who have been here for many, many years, often with an established family? This only causes hardship for the kind, hard-working immigrants who really want to benefit America as future citizens. The government needs to acknowledge that they collect plenty of tax monies from illegal aliens. These people often contribute their taxes just like the rest of us, often at the cost of their own future economic stability, because they are unlikely to ever collect on the social security benefits they have earned.

Of course, violent criminal aliens don't belong here. But how can the government justify sending away 120+ men who were not here because of ignored visas and "attempted murder" charges. Isn't a sudden deportation of a person to another country (where many aliens have lived fewer years, at this point) a bit criminal? Isn't that a form of attempted murder of another human being? Does that not damage a family?

When did America become a nation of assholes? Because humane individuals don't goad on such disgusting, political antics. Only a nation of sociopaths could be so brutal to women and children.

The name of the linked article is "Scores arrested in California immigration raids". I would change the title to: "175 people arrested in California immigration kidnappings".
