Let's say I break into your house. Let's say that when you discover me in your house, you insist that I leave. But I say, "I've made all the beds and washed the sidhes and did the laundry and swept the floors; I've done all the things you don't like to do. I'm hard-working and honest (except for when I broke into your house)
According to protesters supporting illegal immigrants, not only must you let me stay, you must add me to your family's insurance plan, educate my kids, and provide other benefits to me and to my family. If you try to call the police or force me out, I will call my friends who will picket your house carrying signs that proclaim my right to be there.
It's only fair, after all, because you have a nicer house than I do, and I'm just trying to better myself. I'm hard-working and honest, um, except for when I broke into your house.
And what a deal it is for me! I live in your house, contributing only a fraction of the cost of my keep, and there is nothingyou can do about it without being accused of selfishness, prejudice and being an anti-housebreaker. Oh yeah, and I want you to learn my language so you can communicate with me.
Why can’t people see how ridiculous this is?
