No, they have every right to their opinion -- even if I consider it ignorant and ill-informed.
What I am concerned about, given the rapidly deteriorating economic situation, is vilifying and demonizing any group of people (on any basis) and denying them equal protection under the law. This is a seriously slippery slope -- one that Germany slid down in the 1920-30s.
If you want freedom, you'd better be prepared to defend that of the most helpless and repugnant among us.
The simple fact is that these illegal aliens, these people, live here. That there are corporations who benefit ($$) from their being here illegally. That the US government has turned a blind eye to illegal immigration for a very long time because of these corporations' political contributions.
