A pastor once asked me what does immigration status have to do with that when I complained about how U.S. citizens would look bad if immigrants are doing more of God's works, seminary studies, etc. in this country. At that time I was a bit flabbergasted by the stupidity of the question to respond.
Now upon reflection, a quick and easy soundbite response would be:
Let me ask you something, between the children of a house owner and the house guests, who are more responsible for the house's cleanliness?
