protect them and to act on the front lines against crime with them, not against them. you just brought up a major point, congressman, that i think has not been emphasized here. ultimately what do you think the point is of this law? is it really just about immigration and a porous border or is there something in here about wearing out latinos who want to live there, particularly those who want to go vote there? you know, i think they understand that the latino community isn t going anywhere. those that have come under desperate straits are probably going to say, what you re going to do is push them further underground and allow them to be further exploited in the condition that they re in. but i think what it really is, it s the easy out, right? it s like, let s blame someone. you know, we have a failing foreclosure system with homes going in foreclosure. we have a high unemployment. the educational system really isn t serving our children well. you know what? why don t we just go a
