Lovely.

An illegal immigrant who stayed in a Chicago church for a year to avoid separation from her 8-year-old son, a U.S. citizen, was arrested Sunday and being processed for deportation.



I think I just felt a position on immigration solidifying. I haven't really had one before. Maybe some reform is needed, but I don't know a lot about the issue, and I try not to have opinions on things that I don't know about.

Plus, in the past I've tended to see it as an issue that the GOP wants to beat Democrats over the head with, a la gay marriage. By entering into a debate with them about it, we give up a point.

But is there any way in which to read the above story that makes a goddamn lick of sense?
