Agreed, it's a crap analogy in the first place. Also a racist one, I like how the "burglars" did all the housework. There's no assumptions being made their at all!
I agree that illegal immigration is wrong, but it's a case where punishing the immigrants isn't actually going to solve anything and we need to make systemic changes instead. And a wall is sooo not the answer.

Just wondering.
While the cut and paste may be too long, if it's something that came to a mailbox, you can't leave a link to it, right?
Or does everyone object to the subject, too?
Seems like some would like to discuss it.

A) it's posted multiple places online
B)You're not discussing it either, you've made it into a meta discussion of why we're not discussing the topic.
C) It's crap logic and not worth the time, in my opinion. I'd discuss immigration, but not in that context. Start from any sort of logical place and we'll see.
