Immigrant's Rights continued

From another letter in this morning's newspaper with which I agree:
---------------
"I just don't get it. People come to the United States illegally, then demand equal rights? How can they be in a position to demand anything? If you want to be an American, assimilate into our culture, go about it legally and stop demanding special treatment. Play by the rules. While you're at it, make an effort to learn our language."
---------------
No, I am not for increasing any penalties on illegals but this country needs to enforce laws already on the books as well as figure out a humane way to handle the millions of people here already. One important thing here however: STOP DEMANDING RIGHTS YOU DON'T HAVE AS NON-CITIZENS. I certainly can't go to France or Thailand or wherever and demand or request services granted to citizens of those countries. Why the hell should people coming here illegally demand and expect things from this government if they aren't going to follow the rules?
