Slavery is not a modern concept, but it still exists. A friend of mine is in jail right now because he is subjected to the whims of a person who can take advantage of his undocumented status. In fact, he is trying to adjust status, but does not have the same rights as I do. I only have the rights I do because I was lucky to have been born at an address in this country. It's not just that one person can be controlled/blackmailed by another because of something like this.
Nothing is cut and dry when it comes to immigration, but blackmail is cut and dry...it is not right. It's not right to manipulate another person because of the weaknesses they endure due to their color, religion, or status. In this case two out of three are bad...bad wrong. We may have all been created equally...but from that first breath, the inequality begins... "I am so sorry..."
