Here's a post just for my "liberal", "conservative", and lunatic libertarian illegal immigration apologist and supporter readers! Please consider this fun quote:

"We're in a state [Kentucky] where there's nothing but Americans. The police control the streets. It's clean, no gangs. California now resembles Mexico - everyone thinks like in Mexico. California's broken."

Oh, by the way, the speaker is a former illegal alien who moved from Los Angeles to KY:

They went to night school to learn English because few people in Lexington speak Spanish... [the same person says] "at the school there are just people who speak English. It's helped my children a lot."

The quotes are from the Los Angeles Times article "6 + 4 = 1 Tenuous Existence", which tells the tale of several sisters, one of whom stayed in Los Angeles and the rest who left. Much more could be said about the article, such as what they're trying to get at and whether it's to a tiny extent an indictment of the LAT's outright support for massive illegal immigration.

Some comments on this article are here; at the DailyDross, the response is a bit mixed, with some rational posts and a couple noisemakers race-baiting. A few others accuse the Los Angeles Times of doing Rove's work for him: "Articles like this are designed to inflame. They're using the same playbook they used for the Welfare Queen and Johnny Can't Read panics." That's refering to the Los Angeles Times.

And, here's a discussion question just for my "liberal", "conservative", and lunatic libertarian illegal immigration apologist and supporter readers:

How much has the family featured in the article cost the U.S. over the years, and who's benefited from their presence in the U.S.?
