'Ignore,' 'accept' are not real solutions

I am dumbfounded at what may have come out of Alfred Kirkland's education. What does he call an act which breaks or ignores the law? Why, of course, it is an illegal or criminal act.

So what is wrong with characterizing people who have chosen to ignore our laws as acting illegally?

So what should the people entering our country be called by those they disenfranchise? Since Kirkland feels it is such vilification, what should they be called?

We could call them "those poor people whose government would not do anything to help them and thought it would be better if their problems were another country's problems."

Would this be a good title? We all get it, but it does not mean it should now be our problem.

If someone steals to feed their family, we empathize with them, but does our legal system turn its back?

No. Why? Because it is not the shopkeeper's fault that the family was hungry.

Isn't this what it is about? It is a yes or a no. Is what they have done right or wrong?

Kirkland has tried to discredit Association for Legal Americans, but he has offered no solutions except to ignore and accept.
