Do you have a personal stake in this debate, if so, what's your supporting argument for letting illegals stay?

i gotta couple friends who r illegal. so i guess i do have a personal stake. the reason i want them to stay is cuz they grew their whole life up here in this country, since they were practically babies n then just for them to go back to where they were born would suck, they know nothing about that country or lifestyle or anything. all they know is this country n the way we live not anybody else.

I have in laws who are illegal. I see both sides of the debate, but if my family was hungry in Mexico, and I couldn't provide I would break the law and get a job and a new life. But on the other hand it is not our responsibility to supply the whole world with jobs. I don't blame the illegals but I do blame the government for not putting an end to the illegal crossings, and making it a more orderly process in becoming an American citizen so we can choose who we want in our country.

I work with some Illegals-nice people very helpful. They know how I feel---I will not break the law or lie for you or support the breaking of laws. And they were better than some of the supports here-they understood why I feel that way-and gave me credit. Some here have no morals-----and I don't care if they don't want to hear it.

YES, my husband. He has been here for 10 years and is a hard working man. The government , and his lawyers**** him over more then once and you people just think it's so easy to get visas, and everything else. None of you could live with the stupid comments that I hear on the news or on the Internet. All the Americans worry about is them selves. Since I have married my husband I have learned to look at things from both sides. Everyone else is just worried about what is best for them.

I have a brother-in-law who's Mexican. Of course, now he's a citizen, but the fact is that I can't imagine my sister without him. And just because you people believe that illegal immigrants should be deported, that doesn't mean that it will happen, and it most likely won't. Yall should go ahead and get used to the idea.

Who doesn't. My sister came into this country legally with a visa and decided to stay. Now she wants to file for a green card but she is still illegal. I feel for people who are trying to make a better life for themselves in this country, but I do agree that they should do it the legal way.

the stake most of the posters have on this site is that they themselves are of illegal alien extraction and support mecha and la raza....
the gov't gives la raza 30 million annually and they support their segregationist schools and programs with that money....our own government screwing us....

My parents weren't born in this country. They came over here, got a job, and became U.S. citizens.
