I'm in college and my teacher is a self proclaimed know it all and sure there are lots of facts that I know he misconstrues because I'm an avid reader and I refused to be swayed by someone else's claim to knowledge. Like Mary Shelley died in childbirth and was an avid feminist(that was her mom) and that Gene Stanley was a part of Kiss(that was Gene Simmons and Paul Stanley..and I'm not even a rocker!). Anyway, yesterday he made the comment that Puerto Rico is a commonwealth(common knowledge), but that it wants to become a state. This is recent news to me. As the fiancee of a Puerto Rican, I was pretty sure that Puerto Rico is fine with being a territory and DOES not want to become a state. But what do I know? Is this true?

Do the newcomers have a choice? What might aid immigrants to accomplish either goal?

IS ANYONE ELSE DISGUSTED BY THE AMOUNT OF TIME, MONEY AND ENERGY BEING SPENT ON TRYING TO GET ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION TO NOT BE ILLEGAL ANYMORE? MY HARD EARNED, AND YOURS, TAX DOLLARS BEING SPENT ON TRYING TO FORGIVE ILLEGAL ACTS AND NOT TO MENTION ALL THE FREEBIES GIVEN OUT WHEN OUR SCHOOLS ARE I TURMOIL, OUR HEALTHCARE SYSTEM STINKS, OUR ROADS ARE OVERCROWDED - CHILD PREDATORS ARE WALKING THE STREETS - THERE'S GOT TO BE SOMETHING ELSE THEY CAN WORK HARD FOR OTHER THAN ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION.

Once complete, the new road will allow containers from the Far East to enter the United States through the Mexican port of Lazaro Cardenas, bypassing the Longshoreman’s Union in the process. The Mexican trucks, without the involvement of the Teamsters Union, will drive on what will be the nation’s most modern highway straight into the heart of America. The Mexican trucks will cross border in FAST lanes, checked only electronically by the new “SENTRI” system. The first customs stop will be a Mexican customs office in Kansas City, their new Smart Port complex, a facility being built for Mexico at a cost of $3 million to the U.S. taxpayers in Kansas City.

I predict that we will see new legislation in the coming years. There may be several bills that will fail before they come up with something that works. Also, I think you will see new technologies used to screen for illegal immigrants, as well as to keep them from crossing the border. There may be very large fences built in the coming years, but then there will also be virtual and electronic walls between the USA and Mexico. It will be monitored through means that are not available to us right now. But future innovations will make the fence impossible to get by without being detected.

At this moment there are legistlators that are trying to pass laws that would require police officers to inquire about suspects (and perhaps other citizen's) immigration status. They want to make other professionals, such as medical service providers, do the same thing.

Some of these things are a bit scarry, and there will certainly be no end to the contraversy.

What do you think?

With all the thousands of OTMs we catch and release inside our borders could it be that Al Quida is slowly massing an Army within our borders they are not stupid they know the failed immigration system here and that even if they are caught sneaking in they will be released into the US I hope I am only being paranoid but I also have a gut feeling just like Michael Jerkoff does.

Since when did standing up for your own countries laws become racist?

I am against ALL ACTS ILLEGAL in my country - why does that make me a racist?

If someone in Niger stands up for the laws of their country, are they racist too? What about Germany? Or Finland? Mexico or Brazil? Phillipines or South Korea? Are they all racists for standing up for the laws in their countries?

I want to know what peole really think about this.
Good or bad?
Why and how?
Stuff like that

Don't bother posting imature stuff because
if you do, you must not know how to express yourself correctly.
But yeh what do you guys think about illegal imagration

My Opinion;
BY ALL MEANS I THINK ITS FINE, as long as they have a working permit then you know what the hell. Understand that life in El Salvador,Mexico,Guatemala,Costa Rica,Puerto Rico,ect ect is hard. People don't live the way we do here. And theres hardly any jobs. If they want to come here for a better life for their family why try to stop them? Makes no sense.
I think that America is what it is today beacause of us "aliens". We do jobs you don't see others doing. Please note that i am not trying to offend anyone in anyway. Just stating what i feel.....

Mr. Carreon is a good man, all except for the flies a'swarming. Lordy but now they are back with the snapping and I'm scared for Mr. Carreons possible deportation. So my question is will they deport him if they find evidence of him selling the cocaine? And how can I get him back to Arizona if they do?

Ms Doris Meissner , as a White House fellow and assistant to the Attorney Generall Hon. Levy was directing an inter-cabinet task force on undocumented workers issue in l975 . She asked me via the Assistant Secretary of Labor Hon. Abraham Weiss , to write a couple of articles/ papers regarding the impact of undocumented worket on the US Labor market and the Bracero program which were published in a report to President Ford. However, she omitted my name as the author of the articles in the report while someone from the US Department of lLAbor who did not write anything was cited as a participant to the task force. That is if you read the report , it is as I never existed when in fact i spent months on that task force.. My direct supervisors were very upset at the time. I ignored the lady and went on with my life. Now retired 15 years from the US Department of Labor I can be objective bout Ms. Meissner. Has she ever written anything on her own?

Man accused of rape hours after he left jail
COLUMBIA, Tenn. - Maury County deputies and federal agents are looking for a man who is accused of raping a 15-year-old girl only hours after being released from jail.
Juan Villa, 24, has been in the Maury County Jail 11 times since 2001 on charges of assault, public intoxication, driving without a license and contempt of court.
He was released from jail on $1,000 bail on Friday at about 9:45 p.m. and is suspected of raping the 15-year-old shortly after midnight. During the investigation, a 13-year-old girl also told deputies she was raped by Villa, Sheriff Enoch George said.
Detective Jerry Williams said Villa knew the 15-year-old but the two were not close.
Villa is suspected of being in the country illegally and George said the department had contacted Immigration and Customs Enforcement about him before he was released from jail but the federal agents said they would deal with him later.

Any comment?

I am sorry I forgot to mention that I worked in a law firm as a PARALEGAL not as an Attorney CLARIFICATION
Immigrants are already here. We are more than 12 millions of immigrants that clean your house, fix your garden, build and fix your house, serve your food and even help you in your legal needs.
I am a Mexican attorney, and I am part of those 12 millions of immigrants living in USA illigally. I would be more than willing to go to my country, but US CITIZENS need me here. I help them with their divorse cases. 90% of the people I help are white, 10% are latinos. I don't understand why some people are so afraid of giving us legal status when we are already here

Boycotts by Hispanics
Some Hispanic groups, meanwhile, are trying another tactic aimed at curtailing talk radio's role in shaping the immigration debate.

They are threatening to launch local and national boycotts against businesses that advertise on conservative talk radio programs.

"If we take away the sponsors, then we will greatly diminish the impact of conservative talk radio," said Jon Garrido, who runs the Phoenix-based Web site, Hispanic News, and is organizing a boycott.

The boycott is supported by Phoenix-based Imimgrants Without Borders and San Diego-based Border Angels.

Garrido said he will call for a boycott of Bashas' and Food City unless the Arizona grocery-store chain stops purchasing ads on KFYI. Nationally, calls are being made for boycotts of Wells Fargo Bank and Home Depot.

Why limit Freedom of Speech with boycotts. I plan on going to these stores if that happens.

Ilegal lovers tend to make you belive that we white people get lower costs of goods and services. Hum..let me see..my house is three times as expensive as I bought it..my car costs 5 times more then my first car...macdonalds big macs cost twice what they did in high school..gas is 325 a gallon vs 55 Cents in 1980. You have china labor making 30 cents a day but my BBQ I bought last week (made in China) costs 3oo dollars. My friends in illegal lobby, you have NO facts.

Okay, say there's a pregnant Mexican woman on her way to cross the US border illegally. On the way through the desert, she gives birth in Mexico. When she gets to the first possible town in the US, she goes to the police station (or wherever one might go in this situation) and tells them she had given birth to this baby in the US. Would they take her word for it and give the baby US citizenship?

If thats their reason, then if there are 7 billion people on earth, who decides who is welcome into America? Also if 7 billion people came in what would the standard of living be?

So if you the argument that all are welcome we need to make room for 7 billion people in our cities and towns. Its not possible, therefore is there argument is moot?
