I don't want to get into this much other than to say this. We don't owe anyone anything anymore. What happened 100 to 300 years ago has nothing to do with the people livng here now. If certain groups of people do not wish to join the population and adhear to the laws and regulations that have been set down then, that is their choice and not a just cause to give them a break in the rules. I was born here and I had no choice as to where I was born. That doesn't entitle me to anything more than to claim the benefits of being a american citizen. I don't care who is offended by this as it is my opinion and as a american that is my right. The whole concept that this group of people owe this group because of what has happened in the past is insane.
