The below exchange is posted on Sam Zamarripa & Jerry Gonzalez’s GALEO Website. A letter from an American to Jerry and Jerry’s reply.

If any body out there can make some logical sense of Jerry’s response…PLEASE clue me in?

As we have said many times before…Jerry isn’t too smart, they have given him some talking points and a lot of money and turned him loose on Georgia. Yikes.

Scott,

We recognize that our immigration system is broken and we need to fix it. In order for us to address the distinctions you allude to would be for us to have comprehensive immigration reform.

The lack of progress and the U.S. Congress’ failure to act has lead to what John McCain calls “Silent Amnesty”. It perpetuates the status quo of a broken system.

Have a good day.

Executive Director

Hello:

Maybe some of us non-latino citizens would take you more seriously if you distinguished between “legal” and “Illegal” immigrants. As long as you insist upon ignoring the difference, you can pretty well assume that some of us will be less than sympathetic to your concerns and comments.
