Yes. The passage of this thing is just more hypnosis.

Even if they get everything they want in this act, all that is necessary is to break the intense focus on it by explaining what it really is.

Remember, "amnesty" is just that, it is immunity from prosecution for commiting some crime. The crime still exists. Illegal immigration still exists and the people seeking amnesty will be admited criminals. This lets them stay in the country legally, that's all. It doesn't make them US citizens. It doesn't make them immune to deportation.

This amnesty is going to exist for only some finite number of individuals but we are never, not even for a second, removed from the basic problem. We still have to confront illegals in the US and it will be inevitable that there is only one real solution: Hunting them down and throwing them out.

Amnesty is not going to stop illegal immigration, and in fact, right now, it will stimulate more illegal immigration as more outside the country struggle to get in and take advantage of it. Now is a good time to break focus on this act and focus instead on enforcement. Amnesty for most illegals will be just more unwanted attention. They have already got all the amnesty they want and this act might just slow things down for them.

And also, since this many admited criminals will now be here legally, just like their great-great-great-grandparents under Reagan, then we really need to come to terms with the reality that the problem is not illegals alone anymore, but anyone residing in the US who is not a citizen.

If you are not a citizen in the US, then you need to get out. The US is for its citizens only, nobody else. Everyone else is a guest and mostly they are overstaying their welcome.
