Letter: Illegal immigrants should be deported
Tuesday, March 9, 1999 | 11:51 a.m.
All of them broke the laws of the United States when they entered illegally and most of them knowingly broke the law a second time when they knowingly filed false residency documents in the giant Velez/LULAC immigration fraud. They really are not good citizen material.
Quite correctly Miss Liberty is shown weeping in the picture on Ms. Burnett's office wall. Weep she should when millions await -- many of them genuine political refugees -- to enter the United States legally, abiding by the rules and being checked for past criminal activity. Yet, cheaters who sneak across the border or hire immigrant smugglers can command front-page media attention.
With the possible exception of a few late filers who will be given a chance to appeal, these people should go now.
