CNN Half Truths – US Illegal Immigration

It never ceases to amaze me on CNN’s reporting on their website. The latest article to get me riled up, talks about a Mexican illegal in Kansas.

What is wrong with these people? If you enter the country illegally, you face the consequences of your actions. Period. In the story, the illegal’s wife knew that he was in the country illegally, but decided to make a life with him and marry him. I am not condemning their relationship, but there is one thing I will condemn…when the wife pleads “racism”, and charges that the US government is anti-Hispanic. What a joke. What gives people the right to bypass the legal process for any procedure, whether it be for citizenship or any other presumed “right” of existence in the US?

Get over it, Kecia Marquez…either play by the rules, or go to Mexico and be with him. There is no in-between or special circumstance I see, that allows you or your illegal husband to bypass the system. He entered illegally, and you are both suffering the consequences.

And CNN, show a little more discretion on how the article is written…I expect your journalism to be unbiased, and report facts only…not tearjerkers supporting undeserving whiners.
