I think the support for the AZ law in polls , this flag issue, shows how tired people are getting of the illegals situation. It is like when you let a friend come stay with you and at first you really get along, but the longer they stay the more they start to feel like it is their home now and they start eating all the food, and start disrespecting you and your home . The USA has done that with the illegals situation. We let a few come, then a few more, we added support for spanish speaking people to most things like packaging, government agencies, stores, etc to make them more comfortable about being here. We supported their mothers and children with medical,food, housing.
It has reached the point where our generosity has been abused and it is time to tell that friend to get out and get their own place.
