#nohumanisillegal

Serious discussion here, with some food for thought.

Scenario 1:
You are sleeping late at late with your spouse. Your children are in their rooms. You hear a noise, and jump out bed. You run around trying to locate the source of the noise. You discover a woman standing in your living room. She has broken the lock on the back door and entered your house. She is a homeless woman, who left her previous city looking for a better place to live. She asks you, Can you please hire me to be a nanny for your children? Or can she be your cleaning woman?  It's 2am.

>Do you call the cops because this woman broke into your house?
>Do you give her a room to sleep in, a change of clothes, some food to eat, and immediately hire her to watch your children?

Scenario 2:
You own a business and are looking for a new employee. A husky man walks in and says, I WANT THE JOB.  He has no resume, no id, no nothing.

>Do you politely tell him that you can't hire someone with no resume or any information.
>Do you hire him because he he needs a job and he is willing work?

Scenario 3:
You are driving along a deserted highway. Suddenly, you notice a family, a father, a son, and and probably an uncle or something. It's 3 guys. They are hoping you will give them a ride to the next town, which is at least 50 miles away with nothing on the road.

>You don't even stop because you don't pick up hitchhikers.
>You stopped, got their story, and offer them a ride. Actually, they want you turn around and go back the way you were going because they aren't going to THAT city, they are going to the one you just came from. Sure, no problem.

I see these signs all the time -- No Human is Illegal.  Yeah, right. I would love to show up in their house one night, except I really don't want to get arrested. I have a feeling that even those people won't be too happy with a stranger showing up in the middle of night.

Do you lock your doors at night, or when you go away? If you believe in "no borders" and "no human is illegal", then you should NOT be locking your doors. You should be willing to let anyone who wants to walk into your house come in.

And if anyone knows of a decent job where you can be hired just on your desire to work, let me know.  (I'm not talking about picking strawberries or cleaning hotel rooms; I'm talking about a real job, like one in a bank or a supermarket cashier or an accounting firm, etc)  I seriously doubt anyone would hire someone with no resume and no references, especially in one involving children, like a care-giver, nanny, or nursery assistant.

In my opinion, if we aren't comfortable with strangers walking into our homes and making themselves part of the family (think squatters!), then why in the world should we let people into our country who want to do the same thing? America is our HOME. It should have the same rules we put up on our own personal houses.

So if you believe in no borders and no one is illegal, yet you lock your car or home, you, my dear, are a hypocrite!  If you vet the person you hire to watch your children, but think we should let anyone into the country w/o any vetting, again, you are fooling yourself.
