Immigration - November 2007

Hi, everyone! I'm a french citizen who overstayed his tourist visa by 9 years. I'd like to go back to France but would also like to come back in the US knowing that I'm facing the 10 years ban. My question is, could I go to Canada by car then fly to France and do the same thing when I come back? I recently renewed my passport with the US french consulate which has my US address on it and I've never filed any immigration papers but I registered in the US french consulate as a french citizen leaving abroad. What should I do?

The law of this country says you have a right to due process no matter who you are or where you come from. And under these precepts each person is innocent until they are proven to be guilty. If you are so set to jump and complain that they've broken the law then you are standing directly against the Constitution of the United States.
If you are somebody that continually says "a crime's a crime" aren't you really stating your belief to be that you love America and the Constitution as long as it agrees with your own beliefs? Should we follow the constitution and give each and every one of these people of whatever race or origin their rights to due process under OUR constitution?
Or do your arguments have absolutely no solid grounding at all?

MEXICO CITY, Nov 19 (IPS) - Panic has taken hold of the six million Mexicans who live in the United States without residence permits, because of the ongoing crackdown on "illegal aliens", which has involved an increasing number of raids and deportations.

The Mexican government has announced measures in defence of its citizens across the border, and insists that immigration reform is urgently needed in the U.S. However, the indications are that there will be no reform until 2009 at the earliest.

"We are being harassed and persecuted, and I confess we are extremely nervous. We don’t feel that Mexico is helping us at all," Freddy Batista, a Mexican immigrant who has worked in building maintenance in Los Angeles, California for four years, told IPS. "I’ve thought about not taking my son (aged 12) to school anymore, because they might capture me, or him, and then we’d be separated, which would not be fair to him. But what can I do? He can’t stay home or go into hiding," said Batista in a telephone interview from Los Angeles.

We are all immigrants, many anti immigration organizations argue that immigrants "spread diseases and that they don't pay taxes." The truth is that 75% of the immigrants pay taxes.
They enrich our economy. CAN you imagine, the U.S with out immigrants? Who will pick our fruits and veggies? They just take the jobs that "American citizens, or residents don't want to take" because they claim to be civilized. However immigrants just come for a better life.! They work for so little money and yet don't complain.
these are some of the arguments i have heard so now you tell me.. what do you think?

While many, say "illegal immigrants" bring diseases and that they don't pay taxes, others say that illegal immigrants enrich our economy, such that 75% pay taxes. Really the truth is that, immigrants just come to the U.S FOR! a better life. I mean how would you feel if YOU! were an immigrant I'M SURE! that you would be seeking for a better life just like they immigrate from their countries to ours, "THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA." They take jobs that others can't take because they are too harsh.
a quick example: the fires that were happening in California, many immigrants homes were burned down, and they wanted to get aid from donations that others donated, and they couldn"t just because of their immigration status. BUT YET, when immigrants wanted to donate, they were permitted.!!!!
IT'S just so amazing how discrmination is increasing in this country.....
whats your opinion?.

You know what they say about learning from history? if you dont learn from it, your doomed to repeat it. Ignorance is bliss.

I mysely am proud to say i am mexican american born in waco ,texas. My mother was born in matamoros ,mex ironicly she has worked for sherrif's office,immigration(go figure) and as security for 20 years. she is not a us citizen yet. anyways
i see alot of hate towards mexican people as i see other races hate african american people and your being just like them. You might as well join the kkk. This is exactlly why iran and venenzuela laugh at us . It seems alot of you do not look and respect the ACTUAL people who are here illegally and working and minding their own business, you only see the label of illegal. So REally you wanna go work in the fields? Work in the hotels as a janitor? or cleaning lady for 5.75? or every other crappy job they do?? I know there is alot of crime but you dont even know that those criminals are from gangs that come from south am

A "coyote" is someone who runs illegal immigrants across the border between Mexico and the US for money.

Some coyotes do just that .. get people into the US for say $3,000 per person. There is no guarantee of success or even satety.

But some people Pretend to be coyotes and rob and sometimes rape and murder people who are trying to get in the US.

WICHITA, Kan. --Republican and Democratic lawmakers in Kansas are drafting separate bills targeting illegal immigration amid fears about a potential influx of illegal immigrants from neighboring states that have already started cracking down.

Across the nation, at least 127 cities and states have passed or are considering local laws aimed at curbing illegal immigration, according to a database compiled by the Fair Immigration Reform Movement, a project of the Center for Community Change, an immigrant advocacy group based in Washington, D.C.In Kansas, some people are concerned that illegal immigrants may move here from the neighboring states of Oklahoma, Colorado and Missouri, which have passed laws or instituted policies aimed at illegal immigration.

"I don't believe Kansas should become a sanctuary state as other states continue to pass legislation," said Rep. Brenda Landwehr, R-Wichita.

If the federal government is not going to solve the illegal immigration problem, she said, then states have to step in.

Her proposal, which is still being drafted, is based on laws in Oklahoma, Arizona and Colorado, Landwehr said. It would revoke business licenses and impose civil penalties on any Kansas business found to have employed an illegal immigrant, enforce federal law denying public benefits to illegal immigrants and strengthen local enforcement efforts.
