Class Discussion- Immigration

Today in class we had our class discussion on immigration, it was interesting to see where people stood. I really am not choosing sides, because I don't fully agree with everything one side has to say about the topic. I just wish we could find some type of solution, I liked the fact that Xavier pointed out that there were programs were immigrants can join in order to come to the United States legally and work. That to me seems like a great solution, why come illegally when you can come without haveing the fear of being deported. I  also think that we need to focus on the immigrants that are causing trouble and help those that are really here to work, learn and support those they love. I can see both sides and understand why the government is frusterated and I understand that immigrants are being treated unfair. I wish I would have spoken up more because I had some questions and things to point out, and I do feel bad for using the word "colored people" it just came up for lack of a better word and I always get nervous I completely take that back because I didn't agree with the person who used it. Overall nice points were made, too bad we don't have another day to discuss because this topic is a big one.
