deguello,

Please provide a quote or link where Reuben tells us he favors amnesty for certain races only.

If illegal immigrants come voluntarily it means they’re better off here, otherwise they wouldn’t be here. If they enter into labor contracts with employers voluntarily, it means they’re better off under those agreed terms than not. So I don’t see where they’re being exploited, if employers don’t renege on the terms. It’s important that we give them amnesty to keep employers more honest. I’m guessing you’re using the “exploitation” card to hide your contempt for these people.
