Burning Atlanta

You gotta be kidding?

FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. - A group of lawyers and immigrant advocates Wednesday sued the federal government, seeking to stop immigration officials from deporting undocumented parents of U.S.-born children.

The suit, filed in U.S. District Court in Miami, seeks class action status for 60 families in South Florida. Officials from Honduran Unity, Nicaraguan Fraternity and the Peruvian-American Coalition asked the court for an emergency injunction to halt deportations they say trample the civil rights of American children.

*Advocates of stricter immigration enforcement laws, however, argue parenthood should not give undocumented immigrants special status.

"These parents have made breathtakingly bad decisions," said John Keeley of the Center for Immigration Studies. "Nobody forced them to come here illegally. This is their burden. If they have a duty to care for their children, they must do so in their home countries."

This is exactly what everybody knew was going to happen. Illegals come here with total disregards for our laws, except the laws that benefit them including the one that grants citizenship to any child born here. Then they try to hide behind those children and use them as an excuse to stay. OUTRAGEOUS!! Take your little snot-nosed brats with you or find somebody to raise them, you jerks.
