I am a hard working American with a small family who can support my family without any Govt assistance. I am finding out that because I am not a Millionair, Doctor, etc I have no chance of getting a visa. But it seams that if I were a citizen in a third world country with absolutely no way of supporting myself or my family, was from a group of people that are causing crime and distress in your land, that if I could hardly speak English, that if I was someone you would rather stay away from instead of having a pint with them, if I were someone who you would not like your children to be around, if I were scum that I could come to the UK? What is wrong? I know I would be a good law obiding citizen that could contribute something to the country even if it were just the taxes I would have to pay. Who in the heck is running this, who comes up with these laws. Would you rather the immigration dept., keep me out and let in scum, or keep scum out and let me in? Who is running the immigration

I have been living in Prague for past year. Every 90 days I leave so my stay here is legal.

I have applied for the Czech visa twice, and both times been rejected. I have been told this is "payback" because the U.S. government makes it so hard for Czechs to get U.S. visas.

They couldn't find fault with my application or supporting documents. I complied meticulously with the list of requirements they sent me. This time the excuse was that the Czech Police (they give the ultimate yes or no) doubted I was a real student because of my age (47). Hmmm... 150 lessons and I'm not a "real" student? Then they said a language school does not qualify as really going to school.

Obviously, this is just B.S., and you can't fight idiot bureaucrats. Should I just hire a lawyer to push this through? (At the language school, one of the teachers used a lawyer to get the visa)

Any tips you can give?

If yes, do you think Europeans should have learned Native American languages?

Also, if you are in support of preserving English, should we preserve true English, or the neo-English that Americans invented. For example "colour" and "color". (Yahoo! Answers doesn't even recognize colour as a word)

For the record, I want everyone to have to learn English, and I don't want to learn any new languages, because I am selfish.

An illegal immigrant raped and killed two teenage girls in Texas. He's on death row, and International Law is telling Texas that they can't execute him. Bush, OF COURSE, says to follow International Law (protecting the illegal). Texas argued that the international court ruling has no weight in Texas and that Bush has no power to order its enforcement. What will happen to OUR OWN laws if Texas gives in?

Also do you think this Illegal should face the Death Penalty?

Isn't it unfair for us to want them to leave since all of california nevada arizona utah newmexico and a good chunk of texas was land of mexico's UNTIL us AMericans came and STOLE IT FROM MEXICO.... STOLE!? Life over there isn't that great, why else would they want to come over here where they have a CHANCE to live freely and with food in thier bellies.

COULD ANY OF YOU honestly say after looking into the eyes of your hungry children (with no hope for a better life in mexico) that you wouldn't do whatever in the world it took, to give them a life where they don't go to bed starving and they don't wake up each morning with out a future?... I would just like any DECENT parent hopefully would. I know we have a problem with taxes, jobs and money and all of that...but there has to be another way... they are not all bad criminals who smuggle drugs in... there are genuinely great people who want a better life... just like any one else....

What do you think will happen if the majority of people (let's say for the sake of argument 80%) do not want amnesty and it is still given?

Do you think Americans will simply accept it and b*tch about it?

Will they attempt to impeach individuals?

Will they take the matter into their own hands (violence)?

What is your opinion?

I remember the last times I have been to the UK, the times I entered Heathrow airport and Gatwick, the people who stamped your passport would just ask all sorts of questions and one time I was afraid they were going to deny me even!

But I went to Dublin (which is still the UK) and they didnt even look at me or my passport, I dont think, just stamped it.

And then I caught a ferry over to England from there and they didnt even really bother looking at it then either.

what is up with this?

well, I want to know where all this "Americans" are, looking for a job. I work for a staffing service and we have an add in the newspaper, so they know. The pay is decent and these are temp-to-hire positions with a very reputable company and great benefits. It is a manucfacturing job, light assembly, but americans don't want the job or they are felons. Therefore it is not that illegals are taking our jobs, is that most americans are lazy and don't want to stand for 8 hours, or actually work. I also know for a fact that illegals are not the only ones not filing their taxes, americans do it all the time. In addition, ilegals are not the only ones committing identity theft, americans do it also, you know why? so that they don't have to pay child support. So if in your little mind some of you think, that AMERICA would be a perfect world if all the ilegals left, think again.

instead of sending all those greenbacks to mexcio why cannot the illegals start a fund to help us anglos and black taxpayers out that are being squeezed to pay for them living here. You can see them lined up at wire transfer centers all over the southwest wiring money back home. I wish i had some spare cash to send home to mom but I am paying for illegal mexicans.

If some of them (not all!) weren't so audacious?

Imagine if they laid low, didn't play their music so loud and didn't have their flag all over there cars, and at least tried to learn some English and fit in, would Americans be somewhat more sympathetic to their plight?

Cause the way it is now, they want to have their country in ours. They want to have their cake and eat it, too. I think that is really what is pissing Americans off.

Would I be able to still visit the U.S. or U.S. territories? Canada takes better care of its citizens health wise, legally, etc. I would hold a steady job in Canada and contribute to society. I wouldn't just take advantage of their benefits without doing my part in society.

On the O'Reilly Factor, he said illegal Mexicans should build the wall to block them from entering again, and then Americans force them over the wall back to Mexico. Do you agree with Dennis Miller. By the way, O'Reilly got a good laugh out of it, like I did. It makes total sense to me!
