To me it is more like this person you made up was a cop who served for years, risking his life to make ours better, then retired... And instead of just getting to carry with his retired ID and badge being told he has to go take a CHL class. Just my opinion of course.

I don't think they should just open the flood gates and let everyone in but if you fight to defend our rights by god I think you deserve them. When I lived in the keys cubans would float over to my beach in freaking vw's they turned into a boat or intertubes or whatever they could find. I cannot imagine 90 miles of hell in open ocean just to get the freedom we take for granted. Then when they get here Us coast guard and ICE is wading in the water to keep them from touching our precious soil. I would set up a lawn chair and cheer them on as their feet touched sand and hand out gatoraide and crackers to them when they made it.

I think if you want to be here bad enough to die for it or you risk your life for this great country we have room for you. I am glad that we don't just let everyone in but we are talking about Vets of 2 of the bloodiest wars we have had.

If you risk your life for my freedom you deserve yours. Just my humble opinion.
