This is very straight forward question. I just want to know why you personally think that the undocumented people originally came here. Not what they do when they are here, but, I am wondering why you think they made that decision to leave their family, friends, culture, and, language and venture into the great unknown.....

And, I am sure a lot of you will say "don't care", but, with all due respect, please try and come up with an answer?

Do you think that if illegal immigrants were forced to pay taxes like the average american citizen/residents do.. they would still want to stay?

No offense meant to anyone.

Hi there.

If a 19 year old female Jamaican overstayed their visa permit by around 3 years in the UK, got caught and sent (NOT deported) back to Jamaica, what is the chance they could get a visa to study in America.

The overstay wasent all this persons fault as they were underage for some of it. Got decent grades in college/high school with very good recomendations etc.

Thanks ells

Basically we have only two choices:
1. Don't let them earn citizenship-they stay here like theyv'e been doing and wasting our taxes.
2. Let them earn their citizenship and pay a fine, learn Eng...... Then they pay taxes.

Which one sounds better and are there any more choices you can think of?

Does this mean I can go to the homes of rich employers who employ illegal immigrants and raid their refrig and sleep in their beds? Can I take their ID and their children's college fund that their children didn't want anyway?

Shouldn't Americans be allowed to buy land in Mexico and drive up the cost of land?

If your ancestors came from a non-English speaking country, did they learn English before they arrived? Did they speak primarily English by the time they died? In what generation in your family did the "old language" die out?

I would volunteer to build a section of the wall. Don't you think there will be many other Americans who wouldn't mind doing it too.

Hopefully they will jail all of the management and owners of this business.

Although I believe that illegal immigrants should be deported and jailed if they ever re-enter this country for any reason I feel that they are far less culpable then companies that hire them. These companies are the reason that we pay such high taxes educating, medicating, feeding, jailing, pressing one for english and just the pain in the rear that all of these illegals place on this country.

Do you feel the employers should face LONG sentences?

Our country is not being flooded with immigrants, global warming is not caused by them and neither are housing shortages. Look at the facts before you allow the media to tell you what to think please. I dont know how many times this will have to be said before someone believes it, but the colour of you skin or any other aspect of your looks, does not determine your personality or beliefs. You could try and understand and accept people before you judge them.
Please think before you mindlessley accept.

CINCINNATI (Reuters) - U.S. immigration officials raided the Koch Foods Inc. chicken plant in Fairfield, Ohio, and expect to arrest more than 100 employees as part of a criminal operation against illegal immigrants, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) said on Tuesday.

"We're anticipating more than 100 (arrests) but the numbers have not been confirmed," said ICE spokesman Greg Palmore. "Simultaneous search warrants were executed at Koch Foods in Cincinnati and at the Koch headquarters in Chicago."

"This was a targeted work site enforcement operation involving criminal search warrants," Palmore said.

Palmore said the raid, which began at 10 a.m. EDT, was the culmination of a two-year investigation of Koch Foods, which produces chicken for export, food service and retail markets.

Calls to Koch Foods, headquartered in the Chicago suburb of Park Ridge, Illinois, were unanswered.

Tim Bachman, development services director for the city of Fairfield, said the plant near Cincinnati employs about 500 workers.

The raid on Koch was the latest in a series of immigration raids targeting businesses employing illegal workers across the United States. Many U.S. meat industry workers are immigrants, mainly Hispanics.

In December 2006, hundreds of employees were detained in raids at Swift & Co. meat plants in six states, part of a probe into identity theft involving illegal immigrants.

Deputies in the Butler County, Ohio sheriff's office were assisting federal immigration agents with the Koch raid and may provide detention facilities if required, a sheriff's office spokesman said. http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070828/ts_nm/immigration_koch_dc_6

But immigration advocates in Cincinnati said the force used during the raids was terrifying the local community, including U.S.-born children of immigrants who are afraid their parents will be taken away.
Here we go again, using the poor anchor babies as a shield for their criminal behavior.

"The new immigration as a class is far less intelligent than the old...Generally speaking they are actuated in coming by different ideals, for the old immigration came to be part of the country, while the new, in a large measure, comes with the intention of profiting, in a pecuniary way, by the superior advantages of the new world and then returning to the old country."
The Dillingham Report
1911
The report goes on to fault the new immigrants (from southern and eastern Europe) for lack of assimilation and English skills and urges a clampdown on immigration.

How long can the USA keep letting 3rd world poor people in? Are millions of unskilled, unschooled foreigners, most of who don't speak English, really helping this country? Have you considered the long term ramifications? Los Angeles is already half hispanic. Crime is very high. Why is it that crime is so high in every single hispanic neighborhood? I live in Los Angeles. All you have to do is drive through a hispanic neighborhood and you will see grafitti and gang members. You don't see that in white neighborhoods.
