If he is not legal, quick fix - just ship them back to where they came from. Quit using up our tax dollars paying for them to be here illegally. Make them build the "fence" they want built. Feed them bologna sandwiches and dress them in pink:)

My first question...IS HE LEGAL! If not, another reason to vote for Gatewood for Governor.
