David: I am an immigrant at age 12 (now 78). Came here by request and subsequent invitation. Filled out the paperwork, were updated medically and we arrived here receiving nothing. Let me repeat, nothing. What we did get......OPPORTUNITY. We embraced that opportunity. There are now some 12 Batchelor's and masters' degrees, one Phd. an Air Force Academy graduate, a Coast guard Academy graduate and many of us served. That my friend is immigration with the intent to serve, give back, pay it forward and assimilate. Opening the border and saying it's secure is B.S. at the highest level. Semper Fi.
