Take a look at your future, America. Better have a smaller family or no kids at all, to make room for all the law breaker immigrants who want in. They are not criminals, they just break the laws with which they disagree. Like Al Capone.

And all this so Barack Obama can hoodwink the Latinos to vote for him again, in spite of his horrible record on the economy.
