The dilemma that has beset me is that there is no way for me to guarantee that the feral cat I have been feeding twice a day will get his unless I allow that raccoon to eat too. In fact, I think the raccoon watches the cat because she knows I'm feeding him. That is a parable for illegal immigration. The feral cat is a peaceful, well-kept immigrant that has come to join our nation after the fashion of Gus and the raccoon sees the generosity as an opportunity to take and exploit that spirit of kindness.
