Targeting Latino Christians

The Arizona Republic's editorial (1/15) on Latin American immigrants does not raise the question of why Latino Christian refugees are being treated differently than Syrian refugees.   Our government welcomes Syrian refugees even as it deports Latinos.  Moreover, the editorial fails to address this  issue in its context.   America, more than any country, has been very welcoming to immigrants and refugees from all over the world, to the tune of at least a million a year (the most intellectually corrupt aspect of the immigration debate is the failure to acknowledge the immense number of immigrants America welcomes every year).  Enforcement of U.S. laws against illegal immigration are in fact quite lax, especially in the area of visa fraud committed by Asians, Europeans and Africans.  What we need to answer is why what immigration law enforcement action the U.S. does take primarily targets Latino Christians.
