[QUOTE="undies, post: 1355975, member: 21622"] I find this new public health argument to be rather disturbing. These people are coming from a country where vaccinations are not even an option due to the extreme levels of poverty. On the other hand, we have people in this country who foolishly CHOOSE not to vaccinate and thus endanger the children of people who do, should we send those people away too? Maybe not, since their already citizens. This is a human rights issue to me, not about immigration. These people are facing very serious issue in their home countries that put their lives in danger. I feel that as a "christian" society it is our moral obligation to help those in need. I know people will argue that we need to help ourselves first, or that they need to follow the rules and try to enter legally...but how can they do that when our system of laws is so broken? How many people have to get raped, murdered or forced into gangs before we finally get our stuff together and make laws that work? [/QUOTE]
