Subject: RE: BS: Joining the Immigration Rights Marches?
Last night, CNN re-ran a program from 2 years ago with a number of stories of just how complex and polarizing this issue is.
The stories of good, honest people desperate to find a better life, mixed with stories of OTHER good, honest people worried about the increase of crime and tax burden in their communities.
They focused on Georgia, where communities that 10 years ago had almost no Hispanics, now have entire areas and are using 10-20% of the school budget (as US law says that kids MUST be allowed to go to school, no matter what their parents status).
Janie has it right...there are so many gray areas.
