15. Wah!

:cry: That one is not mine. :( :D

But it IS really great! ;)

Just think, I was about to do something just like it, but ran across that one when I was looking for Mt. Rushmore photos in order to begin my work. I was initially disappointed, but I really like it anyway. I just wish the artist had signed it. :)

3. The reason I ask

For a long time it was stated as "10 Million"

then earlier this year it became "10 to 14 Million"

Driving home from work I tuned into local talk radio for the first time in a long time and the local moron said that there "could be as many as 30 Million"

Now I see this Tom Tancredo ad that says "20 Million"

5. About 300,000,000 committ crimes on a regular basis.

Speeding, jay-walking, murder, tax fraud, removing tags from mattresses...

Not to be confused with "illegal" immigration.

That's a civil issue, not a criminal one.

6. I hate to sound like "PC Police" but...

Could you just change the word "Illegals" to something else to convey the people you mean?

8. I voted Choice 6

or in other words, "People are not illegal. The question should be, 'How many undocumented immigrants are in the U.S.?', or 'How many immigrants are in the U.S. illegally?'".
