an analogy of immigration?

Question

An underage patron or group of patrons enter a bar serving alcohol, they either showed false identification or they were able to get passed the guy at the door. They are caught and ejected possibly they charged criminally for the false identification. If the Bar owner does not to the best of his ability enforce the legal age laws his licenses is revoked he is fined and he may also face criminal charges. Everyone agrees that this is just, even Bushes daughters.

An illegal immigrant or group of immigrants enter the country and seek employment, they either show false identification or slip past the guy at the door. They are caught and deported possibly they charged criminally for the false identification. If the employer does not to the best of his ability enforce the legal immigration laws his licenses to do business is revoked and he may also face criminal charges. 12 million plus illegal immigrants have entered our country and many may be illegally employed as well. Someone is not watching the door or is ignoring the laws.

Why would anyone think that there is anyway to justify the illegal actions of any of these parties?

Mr. Taco.....it is that simple! Any reason for complications at this time is due to the fact that corrective action was not taken in a timely manner.

Answer 1

So true! Enforce our immigration laws just like any other law.

Answer 2

Good analogy.
SECURE THE BORDERS TODAY.
If Congress would just secure the borders, and prove that they have done it, then maybe some of us would be open to considerations for the illegals already here. After securing the borders, send the criminal element home, empty those prisons.
Then offer the current illegals, an accelerated path to citizenship which would include requirements to prove employment-and should include all of the other requirements to become a citizen, including taking the oath, learning United Statesian History, learning English as the primary language. I am opposed to Illegal Immigration and Amnesty, but if Congress would SECURE THE BORDERS TODAY, I might be open to a compromise TOMORROW. Promises of money to secure the borders is not enough. They must secure them, and make it widely publicized that the borders are secure.

Answer 3

yeah. we really need to inforce that more!!
heres another analogy...
vvvv

Recently large demonstrations have taken place across the country protesting the fact that Congress is finally addressing the issue of illegal immigration. Certain people are angry that the US might protect its own borders, might make it harder to sneak into this country and, once here, to stay indefinitely. Let me see if I correctly understand the thinking behind these protests.

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 dishes 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 the protesters, 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 (my husband will do your yard work because he too is hard-working and honest, {except for that breaking in part}. 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 well, you know.

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 nothing you 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 ??

Answer 4

I don't think you can answer the immigration issue using cheap analogies that oversimplify the problem and ignore many of the circumstances and costs that are involved. This problem is simply not this simple. Your analogy is a completely different thing. I am not necessarily saying you are wrong, but your analogy oversimplifies this problem and does really provide a solution that resolves all the many facets of this issue.

Answer 5

The supposed justification is based on pure emotion, mainly pity.

Answer 6

You forgot the part where the underage drinkers demand their drinks for free....
