The question now is this, if the illegal immigrant doesn't meet half way regardless of the reason, should the government uphold any part of its end of the deal?
no.
but does the government really hold it's part? (strickly speeking for america ofcourse)
i mean, we have racist cops running around beating people for their skin color. we have fire fighters who say "if you're black, i wont do my job" (prior to the LA riots), we have judges who are OPENLY RACIST, and only get noted on their record, not fired.
what does the government really give you if you become a citizen? i dont really see any form of "protection" that isnt already offered to everybody.
the only thing i can think of, is you have the opportunity to get a better job. some jobs do require you to be a citizen, but other than that, basically nothign.
(i might be over simplifying, correct me if i'm wrong.)
in many cases, it doesnt matter if you're legal, citizen, or illegal, people are gonna treat you badly. and it isnt because you're a bad person, eigther. sometimes it is because of reasons beyond your control.
now, i'll ask a question:
do you not think it fare for the government to open its doors to immigrants, after doing so much bad things to them?
(killing of indians, stealing of land, wars, ect)
