Would you be so kind as tell me were I offended you so that I can learn from my lesson and not repeat my abuse...

Here is my question...

My parents were illegal immigrants from ireland back in the late 70's, they went through hardships just to survive. They never committed a crime or got federal aid. That's why i'm not quick to blame illegals or become anti illegal. What i do not agree with is the way anti illegal people handle the issue. That's what it is people an issue and crime, poverty, unemployment, federal aid abuse are all different issues and should not be lumped in to the illegal immigration issue. Isn't it ignorant to lump them together when the majority of these issues except for illegal immigration are cause by mainly US citizens, or is it ok for citizens to do all this but if you're illgal it's not ok. Why focus an illegal immigrations plus all these issues lumped to it and not tackle the issues separately as to contain the number of people that commit the crime wether illegal or not? Or are we giving our citizens a free comit crime, and not work time while we deal with illegals?

What's my standpoint towards illegal immigrants, none yet, still doing research but i can tell there is a lot of hatred towards them and racial hatred too. I know not all illegals come from mexico, but i hear a lot of anti illegal people say send all illegals back to mexico. Well that seems racist. One thing i do hear is that illegals steal SSN and use them, but what about the other side of the coin? The thousands and thousands of citizens go get their identity stolen via internet and other scams committed by our own citizens, or are we to turn a blind eye to them and accuse illegals of being the only ones that steal? I gotta do more research but i won't take anyone's word for it since it seems people generalize and tag everything to illgals when in reality they are not the majority or the cause, just a small factor. Thanks for your answers. BTW i'm Irish American, my parents immigrated illegaly back in the 70's but me, i was born here, but proud of my culture.

We didn't steal indian land. We got it through trade and war, you make it sound like it happened in one day - it happened over about 400 years, and some argue it's still going on now.

Can someone show me a map of Mexico, USA, and Canada where the indians actually were in a country, keeping in mind at least in America, at no time were there every more than 9 million of them in a country that now has 300 million?

Not dissing heritage, but 9 million peoples could never have stood up to any major force at that time. If it wasn't the Europeans, it would have been Spain and Portugal at least and like the other peoples that became extinct in Mexico, the Indians would have gone the same way.

If I am not mistaken there's more indians in America now than their were then.

Do you need bank statements? My fiance is in the US airforce and will be for at least another 2 years. When a person in the military is married, then the money they are allocated by the airforce for food, rent (not sure what its called) etc is increased to help support the wife/husband. Do the immigrations know that this will happen or do you need proof? how can you get proof for this? I'm lucky in the fact that my fiance has been in the military for the last 6 years and worked his way up the ranks - will this help the fact that he will be able to support me?

P.S - i know i keep asking questions but wanna get as much info as poss :)

Though I agree that everyone should speak english, I don't believe the should only speak english wether at the store or at home. By everyone speaking english in the United States, life would be much more easier simply because we no longer would have a language barrier. That wouldn't be comfroming or assimilating to the lifestyle of others, not in my opinion, because you can keep your native language and speak it when you want, but you'll know english and you'd be able to use it when needed. What I don't agree with is people that want everyone to comform or assimilate to an "American" lifestyle. When you find out what an "American" lifestyle is please tell me, this country's roots and heritage are not of one country but many. All these cultures have fused together to create what we have now and will continue to fuse today, tomorrow and in the future. I will not comform to a certain persons lifestyle, where would it end? What happen to our freedoms then? What do you think?

He is in the US airforce and been here since October 2004 - we have known each other from the 1st day he arrived in England, been together since Feb 2005 and I have been living with him since Jan 2006. All the bills are in his name, only my cell phone bill and bank statements come to our address. He is returning to the states in November and we will apply for a fiancee visa. They will obviously need proof that our relationship is valid. We have 1000's photos in many different countries together, some emails that have been sent throughout the years, but i have thrown all the phone bills and not stored the online chats we've had. What kind of evidence is needed?

Why is it soo hard to appreciate the immigrant who work tireless on odd casual jobs that u the native of that country dont do. They make one see and appreciate the silver lining that u take for granted. Imagine they become the envy of their villages in Africa THE RICH. Will the native do these manual jobs? and if so would they earn as little as they do? Pliz be fair and appreciate them becoz u never know what u have until u loss it.

I mean, do you think that all immigrants should just round up all of the people who are against immigration and mercilessly slaughter them in the streets? Maybe parade around town with their heads on stakes? Personally, I don't think that. I think that would be a terribly nasty thing to do to those people. Of course, it's a big old world out there and a lot of people have different ideas. So the real question here is whether or not you've actually read the additional information to this question or not. If you have, please include a smiley-faced emoticon in your answer. Thank you very much.

In reality, racism is a form of jelousy, another way to hate and an inferior way to live. Xenophobic people(racist) are usually full of hate, jealousy, insecurity, envy, They do a lot of "patriotic screaming" as a form of hiding the reality the hide within themselves which is ignorance, self-pitty, low self- esteem, no values and unknown love for the others..All in all, now that you've read this, by your answer you'll discover how small or great of a person you really are.

Just picture yourself, in a third world country, where there is a lack of food, jobs, education, freedom, etc.
Your family is suffering and they work like a donkey, but still that is not enough.
You could ask for legal documents.......oh wait!... that cost more than what your whole family earns in a year, plus requirements such as owning a house, or any other assets.
Umm.....however one of the most richest countrys are right there.....what would you do then??

My fiance and I are from different countries. We are considering the option of getting married oversees (outside of the US where I live) and then I will get a spouse visa for him to come here. Is that legal? And what do you have to do to get a marriage license to get married in a country that is not your own?

In all the books i read about terrorists, and muslim extremists, they all go to school in American, ivy league colleges. How is it possible that we don't see this, and not let any more in? is it because they can afford it, and money is all that matters? or are they all liberal schools?
