Re: your Aug. 30 article, “Aid for illegal students backed�:
One of our country’s current major problems is the lack of controlling the entry of illegals into this country.
I checked the dictionary, and its definition of illegals is, “forbidden by law or statute.� If it’s illegal, then it obviously must be against the law.
Doesn’t our law currently state that illegals should be returned to the country of their origin? Therefore, when I saw The Star’s headline and I realized that our Legislature in Sacramento had passed the bill, I became incensed. Isn’t this like pouring salt on an open wound? They shouldn’t even be permitted to remain in this country. If people are illegal, they should be deported and most certainly shouldn’t be subsidized. There are too many legal residents who need help. Why aren’t we helping them instead?
