Resist Temptation to Lump all Immigrants into the same Basket

If you didn't sneak into America, you're welcome here no matter your race, ethnicity, or religion. Unfortunately, too many Americans seem unable to distinguish legitimate different-looking citizens from those who violated our laws to get here. That's how you can end up -- for example -- with a Kentucky woman berating a Latino about welfare even though she had no idea about that woman's background, life or how she arrived in America. Most who look different, come from different cultures or worship differently are NOT illegal. Don't lump them together with those who arrive here illegally.
