"I don't know what's wrong with these people, why they're so afraid of people like me," said Rico, who has lived in the U.S. since he was 13. "It's so frustrating. I passed a federal background check, done everything right by the book. I'm paying taxes. I mean, we're just kids trying to go to school."
Imagine a legal resident saying that to a judge, if charged with breaking any law of this land. "Judge why are you so afraid of me? I just trying to _____."
Is there a parallel?
A few years or so back, homose@uals began to emerge from the closets where they were hiding their sin. At first tentatively testing the waters, so to speak. Finding "lukewarm" waters gave them enouragement. Fast forward. Today, not only are they out of hiding, they are demanding that Bible believing Christians condone their sin. And asking why we are "afraid" of them?
Gay Pride demonstrations and marches. Aren't we seeing the same thing with an equivalent "Illegal Pride" emerging because there is no fear that current law will be enforced? What's the next segment of society to do the same thing? Welfare cheats? Bank robbers? Wife beaters?
