A dangerous shift

According to Janet Napolitano of Homeland Security, "crossing our borders is not a crime, per se."

That's news to the thousands of border security officers who put their lives on the line each day to prevent illegal aliens from crossing our borders and breaking our laws. It's also news to American citizens.

Try it in any other country and see what happens.

This fragments our nation into those who would defend our country from any invasion and those who have ulterior purposes not to defend us. This is a dangerous and radical shift in our nation's immigration policy.
