Reading through a friend's Federal Government book this afternoon, I realized something. Our Nation's Constitution was written for the legal citizens of this country. Right to a speedy trial, the right not to be tried for the same crime twice (Double Jeopardy). The right to a trial by jury, right to fair punishment, etcetera ad nauseum. So, why are we hearing about all of the illegal immigrants, whether they be natives of Mexico, or wherever, being bound over for trial, or simply released? Technically, shouldn't they have no rights at all? Made me stop and think.
