Crying wolf

I just don't get it.

"I don't agree with this," she said. "This wasn't right. I think it is just discrimination."

IT is a law in Waukegan Illinois that will turn illegal immigrants that have been arrested for breaking other laws to ICE for deportation. The law does not specify that it is going after Hispanics or Asians or any other nationality of people - it simply says that if you are an illegal immigrant and you break the laws in the city of Waukegan, you will be sent back to your home country.

The illegal immigration problem is not strictly a "Hispanic" problem. There are Irish and German illegals too - people who came on a visa and over stayed. Illegal immigrantes come from every nation, but I will admit that "Hispanics" have become the face of the problem because there are so many that come here from Central and South America.

Come to think of it, there are people who are making this a race issue, but they are not the people who are trying to enforce the laws in Waukegan.....it is the people who are fighting this law.
