Am I to assume, Hugz, that you are ok with someone coming here illegally and using your social security number then? I am sure you would have no problem explaining to the IRS why you owe thousands in back taxes because someone used your number. I assume you would have no problem spending weeks clearing up that mess when you tried to get a job. I also assume you would have no problem being arrested because somebody else was using your ID and had a warrant issued for them. These are real issues that happen to real people EVERYDAY. I know because I see it daily.

To be honest, i have had to already to that. As has my dad after he became a legal resident. So yes i know what a pain in the ass it actually is.

Then you above the rest of us should be more for legalized immigration, should you not?

And i wish to appologize if what i wrote earlier came across as judgemental, for I did not intend for it to be that way.

My last post concerning this topic. Questions that were directed at me, i tried to answer openly and honestly. When i saw this post, I answered it honestly. And trust me i have been on this board and other Dodge city boards for long enough to know what the consequences of posting my opinion would be. And it came out just as expected and i respect each and every opinion that is posted on this topic.

I can only speak for my own situation and that is it. And for those of you who are wondering and i know some are....Yes my entire family is here legally and have been so since the very early 80's during a time when illegal immigration did not cause such a firestorm in politics and personal opinions as it does today.

Hopefully one of these days legistlation will be such that everybody agrees with the policy concerning immigration, but as we all know we are dealing with the national government and sometimes these things take alot of time to get things right. And even then not everyone is happy.

I know i rambled a little but that is it for my take on this subject.

Thank you

Hugz
