Balkanization of America

It is hard to put into words in a few sentences the situation we have in America regarding the illegal alien problem. It may not be a problem to the chronically politically correct and Democrats who want to somehow make the 15 million illegals American citizens who, presumably, will vote Democrat. These people even refuse to use the term "illegal alien." They insist upon referring to people who broke U.S. law by sneaking across our border as undocumented immigrants or migrants or just plain immigrants. They also seek to blur the distinction between illegal and legal immigrants, because, and who could object, immigration is a healthy thing for our country because of the vague benefit of diversity. This cliché is, of course, pure bunk because diversity never caused anything but balkanization of ethnic groups that do not assimilate nor participate in civic functions. A subject for another blog. However, the illegal problem is our most serious threat. The state of Arizona has been asking the Federal Government to enforce the law and do something about the horrendous problem of violence, crime, and law enforcement problems that illegals are causing. The Feds have ignored their responsibility so Arizona passed their own immigration law that actually just mirrors the federal law. The feds filed a lawsuit claiming Arizona was preempting the fed law. That is, we won't enforce the law but we will not allow you to do so.
