Does anyone remember a certain event during WWII called the extermination of the Jews? What happened was that the Germans outlawed all persons who considered themselves Jewish, and these people were to be treated as criminals whose only crime was living on Nazi-controlled land. These people were deported to concentration camps, and we all know what happened from there.

Now, we may not be as bad as the Nazis, and the illegal immigrants may not suffer as horrible a fate as the Jews. However, most of our current policies are leading down that same line, where people are considered criminals simply because they walked into another country without telling anybody.

I may have misphrased what I said earlier, so let me ask again: is what the US doing just?
