i'm curious goose... which loop holes do you refer to? marriage loop-hole? adoption loop-hole? or are those not loop holes? those are fine? just the other ones... like petitioning immediate family?

btw, goose, where was your great grandfather originally from? lol. damn loop-holes!

Those are all loop holes Pal.
And who the hell is CREAM? Aren't 'Ethnic American Minorities' people like the Arapahoe, Iroquois, Colorado, Seminole and Carolinian? What about these folks' immigration issues? Who's giving them free legal advice?

Like it or not this is the locals' land. Introducing a bunch of foreignors, then calling them 'Ethnic Minorities' and supplying them with free legal advice on how to make it THEIR land is unethical at best, invasion and occupation by proxy at worst. Every single person who attended that workshop has a home country, and the bleeding heart 'they're searching for a better life' mantra just doesn't wash. If we cared so much about needy foreignors we'd be letting Burmese, Rwandans and Somalis in by droves.
