Hello Sean,

 WD>> I would love it when people would start using "undocumented" instead
 WD>> of "illegal". The latter pushes them immediately into the criminal
 WD>> bracket while they're just looking for a better life ...

 SD> That's because in the US, Ward, sneaking in over the border is breaking
the
 SD> law, so yes, it is an illegal act.

Like jaywalking, it is nothing but a misdemeanor.

 SD> I'm not one to sugarcoat things to assuage people's political leanings.

Nobody ever went to prison for jaywalking or any other
misdemeanor of that nature.  So why are you getting yourself
all worked up?

 SD> Breaking the law is breaking the law whether you're supposedly looking for
 a
 SD> better life or not.

If we locked up everybody who committed a misdemeanor we would
not have anybody living at home.

 WD>> I've experienced the northern border in winter conditions and I fully
 WD>> concur. In the "sawth" they'll die of thirst, in the "nawth" they'll
 WD>> freeze their nuts off.

 SD> I had a friend who owns land along the Arizona/Mexico border.  He's had
 SD> several illegals die on his land from thirst and starvation.  He finally
 SD> broke down and had to put up an electrified fence to keep border jumpers
 SD> from trespassing on his land.

Your friend better hope and pray PETA never finds out about this.
Coyotes and possum and roadrunners and other critters have RIGHTS!
