According to some from other nations(no not Mexico) they do not and Americans expect them to know English.
Is there any TRUTH behind that?

that after 15 million illegal mexicans crossed the border, that the count ended there. Do they know how long 15 million has been used. The numbers change fast. Just like electronics get old after a week, so do the stats. The numbers are constantly changing. Take a look... The truth hurts doesn't it...

Why are people always referring to the white guests on the Maury Show as white trash, trailer park trash, Hillbillies, imbreds, etc. but never say a word about the black guests?

Why are they considered normal and cool when in the same circumstances as the white guests? Is it hillbilly-ish for a white girl to have 5 possible baby daddies but not hillbilly-ish for a black girl to have 5 possible baby daddies? If so PLEASE explain to me why. I mean really what IS the difference?

If you look at the statistics of those who are on welfare and receive government benefits over 3/4ths of them are natural born Americans who's families have been here at least 2 generations. Yet people want to blame immigration on the problems with our society.

Today's immigrants contribute WHAT? America would have never become a great nation with the immigrants who enter today....PERIOD. They may cut grass, pick fruit, bring you a meal,etc. ( and not even well) but they are not the immigrants who advanced science, engineering,etc. of years ago. Those immigrants stay home in Holland, Germany, etc. today. Today's immigrant doesn't want to speak English and waves the flag of the dump they left for America.

Foreigners with fake papers, or who enter the country under false pretenses, may be imprisoned: (Article 116)
Foreigners who are deported from Mexico and attempt to re-enter the country without authorization can be imprisoned for 10 years. (Article 118)
A penalty of up to two years in prison and a fine of three hundred to five thousand pesos will be imposed on the foreigner who enters illegally. (Article 123)
Foreigners may be barred from the country if their presence upsets the equilibrium of the national demographics (basically legal racial discrimination). Article 37)
When you want to acquire permanent residency AND you want to work:
You will need to satisfy requirements for entry (e.g. professional, sponsored by a company, etc), or be able and prepared to invest at least 40,000 times the minimum wage in Mexico City.

Would pro-illegal immigration people have a problem with us adopting the same laws as Mexico?

1. They came here illegally with a sick child for medical care (at US taxpayers expense)...ok I can buy that...don't want to see your child die...

2. Child died...they stayed and had THREE MORE (at US taxpayers expense) while on Medi-Cal

3. He used a fake green card and a fake social security card...isn't that FRAUD?)

4. He was working as an electrician (WITHOUT A LICENSE) making $1000 a week (wow...now there's a job an American just WILL NOT do) while his wife gets to play stay at home mom (how sweet...must be nice)

5. While doing this job "an American will not do" they manage to buy a 4 bedroom home for $300,000.00 all the while they are still receiving Medi-Cal...and NOT paying for their own insurance (that too must be nice)

6. They had plans to defy deportation orders but got busted before they had the chance...awwwwwwwwwwww

Now tell me again...who's not a criminal??????

i know someones gonna say...quit hiring them or renting to them and they'll leave...but we truly should be able to close our border...competely and deport each and every one of them. i am all for that tax increase...e temporary tax increase...heck, i'd probably be saving money in the deal compaired to what they siphon off of us currently. and no matter what you say about them paying into our system,it has been a well known fact that they use more services than they'll ever pay for. they are a drain on society and their own government and senor bush owes me bigtime

Everyday that I get on here there is a question about Mexicans and/or immagrants and everyday the answers to it are so incredibly rude. I'm Mexican and I'll have you know that I am 18 and a virgin, I speak English, I have a 3.5 GPA, I take showers everyday, I work hard to get my money, and I'm NOT illegal. Don't judge everyone because of what a few do.

I hear people wanting him to end the war. I hear people counting the days until his term is over. I hear people saying that voting for him was the worst mistake they have ever done. But here on Yahoo Answers people stand by their man! Bush is down in the popularity polls. But not here on Yahoo Answers. I wonder why? Is this really how they truly feel?

The government is not aware of any specific, credible threat against Obama, according to a law enforcement source familiar with the decision. But the campaign has received hate mail and calls and other "threatening materials" in the past and during his campaign, the source said.
Three Obama campaign officials who discussed the issue on condition of anonymity also said there was no specific threat against the candidate. They said the request stemmed from what one called the "cumulative effect" of a heavier campaign schedule, larger crowds and "just the growing perception internally" it was time to take additional security precautions that are best suited for the Secret Service.
A Department of Homeland Security spokesperson also tells CNN there is no known specific or credible threat.

Who pays for this protection ?
A real threat ?
Or great extra news coverage by the media ?
What do you think ?
Answer any or all.

In a sense, isn't it the other way around? I mean, illegal immigrants march through the streets demanding equal rights, claiming that they've been "promised" to them. However, is it not true that these rights are granted to American citizens? I have absolutely nothing against anyone's race or ethnic background, but the idea of ANYONE immigrating illegally to America makes me quite angry. Also, why is it fair that illegal immigrants should just be granted equal rights when African Americans had to struggle and work so hard for SO many years?

If you lived in a poverty stricken area, where there are no jobs, no food, your family is hungry, the cubbards are empty, Your childrens feet are barefooted, their clothes are worn out, the government over you could not care about your plight, there are no government services and there are only 2 choices.
You either starve and watch your children starve as well.
OR
You can feed your family by illegaly entering into another country and working, taking a small part of the abundance that others have?
I am only looking for the answers that answer my question. Don't give me a long rundown about the law. Because if a law were made that would make it illegal for you to eat. You would break that law.
Just answer the immediate question.

OK, I have found it! The problem I have been having is how to punish those who are in our country illegally, but not spend BILLIONS deporting them or detaining them in our prison system. So, here it goes:

1. We make it easier for them to get work visas. The only stipulation is: they have to learn English. They get their work visas, learn English, pay their taxes, etc.

2. Anyone (after a certain period) caught in this country illegally is given jail time. Not deportation, jail time. Anyone employing or renting to an illegal immigrant gets jail time, unless the illegal had fake documentation, and then the illegal gets MORE jail time.

3. Now for the genius part. Anyone who is now in this country illegally CAN get a work visa, but... they are put on lifetime probation. If they ever commit a crime, EVER, they get a much more severe punishment for the crime than usual, and deportation, or they are released, or whatever..

So, will it work?
