| Message | We can support this. We certainly do need to secure our borders. |

| Message | If our allies truly believe illegal immigration is as much a problem than we'd support physically shoring up Aldegar's borders. By no means however can we support such a clearly xenophobic resolution as the first article of this bill. |

| Message | Article number 2 is good. But we are going to vote a no becouse Article 1. |

| Message | Xenophobic? Well, it's certainly better than being an anarchist. We aren't xenophobic. On the contrary, we welcome legal immigration. We don't, however, condone the blatant attacks on this nation's laws by providing amnesty to illegal aliens. Tell me, if you knew that you would be rewarded, instead of punished, for disobeying a law, would you do it? Of course you would. These proposals are by no means xenophobic. They are instead dutiful, as it is our duty as the government of the people to enforce the laws of this land. |
