People who want to enter the U.S. should live up to our laws

Dear editor:

If you're somewhat of a history buff, you know history has a way of repeating itself. What is happening now on our Mexican and Canadian borders has happened before. The China Wall is a great example of that. It is now a tourist attraction.

We have to maintain secure borders and enforce all laws regarding them. People that want to migrate to the United States must live up to our laws, learn English and obtain citizenship the proper way. Fencing and armed patrols will be a necessity. A guest worker program has to be regulated and enforced. Violators, be they the guest workers or the employers, must be fined severely or even jailed if they continue to break the law.

If you remember the League of Nations, you'll remember how it failed, just like the United Nations is failing now. It did, however, develop one of the greatest attempts to have a universal language that all nations could speak and understand. It was called "Esperanto." This universal language would have been required to be taught in all schools from grammar school to high school. It was well accepted and being taught until it began to fail because of the disputes between different countries and the League of Nations did not have the ability, the manpower or the money to enforce the law. It is unfortunate this didn't succeed.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out in less than 20 years the Asians, Mexicans, and African Americans will be the majority race and the Anglo-Saxons will be the minority race and on food stamps, receive free medical care and all the rest of the government programs. This is my opinion and as long as we have the right to free speech, I have the right to my opinion. Whether you agree with me or not is your right and I respect that.

We may have no worries at all if a meteorite half the size of Texas can't be pushed out of the earth's orbit. It will hit our solar system with such force the earth will be destroyed. The government is well aware of this and they are doing everything they can to change the course of this meteorite to prevent it from happening. It is expected to arrive around 2648.
