One issue that the media has continued to fall in line with the democrats is illegal immigration. The democrats know they can bully people into silence by crying 'racism' every time they can't win an argument based on logic and merit. The democrats have painted the illegal immigration issue as one of racism and those against illegal immigration as 'anti-immigration'. There is a big difference between wanting the rule of law upheld and being 'anti-immigration'.
Many argue that illegal immigrants simply want a better life and therefore we shouldn't blame them for that. Where does it stop? The poor kid who breaks into a rich kid's home and steals some electronics may just want a better life, too, but there are laws in our society. Millions of people around the world live in refugee camps and most likely want a better life for themselves, too, but they have an ocean to cross in order to reach our borders. Is it fair that they don't have the same benefit as those who can just run across our border? And what about those that are actually following our laws and trying to come into the country legally? How do we explain to them that law-breakers are going to be rewarded? If you've ever watched a cheater or a rule-breaker advance unfairly while you're behind following the rules, you know the frustration. Those trying to enter the country legally must feel that same frustration.
It's very frustrating that Republicans are afraid to speak out logically about this issue, that they have been bullied into silence. Nobody should be afraid to stand up for the rule of law, but unfortunately, with our press wholly owned by the democratic party, there is now a silent majority that has been bullied into submission.
