What about the JUSTICE required with respect for the law.
What about the government's compassion, the nation's compassion to the communities who are seeing their tax dollars drained in health and educations services to illegal immigrants who cannot adequately, or legally, contribute to the financial health of the communities they overwhelm.
What about the moral compassion to the millions of legal immigrants who struggled and endured the legal and bureaucratic hurdles to live here legally, and who often have relatives in the lands of their birth continuing in that respectful, legal tradition and now, hoping to legally join their families here.
The obsession of compassion for illegal immigrants misses the moral compassion and respect that legal immigrants deserve and tells all pending legal immigrants to leave the legal process and just come. No one will stop you. The obsession of compassion for the illegal immigrant is morally disrespectful to the legal immigrant

The obsession of compassion for the illegal immigrant is morally disrespectful to the legal immigrant and undermines the mandate for legal immigration.
With amnesty for illegal immigrants there is no justice to legal immigrants; amnesty for illegal immigrants simply signores legal immigrants and calls them fools for respecting the law.

It is illegal for non-profit and religious organizations to knowingly assist an employer to violate employment sanctions, regardless of claims that their convictions require them to assist aliens.Harboring or aiding illegal aliens is not protected by the First Amendment.
Encouraging and Harboring Illegal Aliens
It is a violation of law for any person to conceal, harbor, or shield from detection in any place, including any building or means of transportation, any alien who is in the United States in violation of law. Harboring means any conduct that tends to substantially facilitate an alien to remain in the U.S. illegally. The sheltering need not be clandestine, and harboring covers aliens arrested outdoors, as well as in a building. This provision includes harboring an alien who entered the U.S. legally, but has since lost his legal status.
The laws couldn't get any clearer. Its against the law for religious groups or any none profit group to aid,abet shelter an illegal alien.The churches should be charged with the federal felony it is and its members arrested. YOU can not pick and choose what laws you as an American will or will not obey.

In general it's too easy to make the whole illegal immigration issue into a racist thing. Basically, if you want to throw out the illegal immigrants or/and secure the border, then you're a racist. But I've never seen anyone state that they're against all immigration, only illegal immigration. Which is fair enough, isn't it?
The inescapable fact is that illegal immigration on a large scale will destroy American wages even more than they already have been. Nothing nationalistic about that, it's simply just ridiculous that USofA shouldn't secure her borders against illegal immigration, if nothing else to protect against black market labor. Every nation that tries to maintain a decent standard of living does this.
But again this is all just a part of a bigger agenda, the North American Union and more corporate control of America. Low wages are good for the corporations, and lots of new citizens of Mexican decent will help propel the North American Union forward. Actually, I'm not sure if the North American Union evens needs public support, because it's happening right now and nobody seems to know about it.
But all that aside, I guess amnesty could work, if it means that they'll be entitled to at least minimum wage. Doesn't matter though, as long as the borders aren't being secured.

There was a prior sanctuary movement which ended abruptly when a number of priests and ministers were arrested on criminal charges.
I think that is clear law, and they should start with the church where Elvira Arellano is holed up.

I'll pay more attention when the churches provide "sanctuary" for people tired of paying taxes to pay for the services illegal aliens take from us.

tell it like it is, bush will find out he has screwed up majorly when a war breaks out between Americans and Mexico. if he's so worried about the welfare of Mexico he should take some of that 4 hundred thousand we pay him and give it to Mexico to build.
