I think we need to look at why you consider this so offensive in the first place.

If a law enforcement officer in the midst of an operation to remove criminal aliens from my country were to ask me to identify myself -- I would gladly cooperate. That's because I know that removing these drug dealers, serial rapists, etc. is being done for the benefit of everyone who lives in this country -- including me and mine.

I'm not a prima donna. My ego -- well, I don't consider myself so darn important that my need to feel "offended" is more important than everybody else's need to feel safe.

But this point of view -- the willingness to let go of your own needs to support the needs of others usually begins to increase as you get older. So I am not going to fault you for your point of view because I don't know how many spins around the sun you've taken.

But consider this -- the inconvenience of flashing a piece of paper is really miniscule when matched against the safety and security of everyday people.

We're talking everybody -- from toddlers to grannies will be that much safer the quicker these law enforcement officers get these people out of the country.

I encourage you to do some research in regard to the citizens who have been killed by these illegal migrants and you may understand why we feel they should be returned to their own countries. The families of their victims -- well, there is really nothing we can do to fill the void in their hearts. But we can make sure that no other family members join their ranks by losing a loved one.

Believe me. Supporting this cause is unworthy of your passion. The handicapped need a champion. BE THEIRS.
