Illegal, uncontrolled immigration. The noun in those three words is a good thing – immigration is a very good thing that has made our country the great melting pot of diverse talents, abilities, grit, determination, desire for freedom, and opportunity.
But the adjectives…“illegal, uncontrolled”…well, that’s a problem. A very big problem. We’ll discuss how much of a problem, with stories, but also actual numbers. Numbers such as convicted felons, gang members, and even those on the terrorist watch list have entered our country recently. And those are just the ones we know about!
We’ll also share some historical context on immigration from our recent trip to San Antonio, Texas, and our visit to the Alamo. Yes, the Alamo, where Texas even had immigration limits! History is a wonderful thing, and those who don’t learn from it are doomed to repeat it. On TWIRL, we’re on the “learn from it” side.
