What does illegal REALLY mean?

Question

Why is everyone so mad about immigration? Look at it this way.Most of the US from europe origins,from families who wanted a better life all those years ago.The way travel was,it has only made it possible in the last century.Most of the UK origins from the rest of europe too.
Nowadays people earn more money and want a better life for themselves and for their families and if that means relocating to another country,so be it.Put it this way,if I lived in a third world country,I would want to move.And with so many people also on poor wages too they will risk their life to seek a new life.
I think it is a compliment that so many people want to move to the west (or far east/oz).Where the problem lies is policing/educating these people when they get here.

I would like to point out here that it isnt just america that has this problem.The UK/rest of europe has has it too with asians.Maybe problem isnt the right word.You should have the right as a human being to live where you want.Isnt it ironic that all the "American" people (from euroland) are all now saying "go home".If every one had to do that,the US and Australia would be empty.

Answer 1

Do I have the right to live in your house? In your car?
Anywhere? You know are poor are hurting? Or don't you care? Should I feed my neighbors kids and let my starve? The poor here are not getting their cost of living raises because You feel others should get it. Take a walk in a VA hospital-tell the disable men who served our country-you want to take a little more out of their disability check so others may have a better live. Tell the old lady on SS you don't care that she can't keep her house anymore because you need more of her check to help others have a better life--she is already is giving up her medical. Oh you don't think it works that way? Well where do you think the money is coming from? The money tree? Look on web how much it is costing in benefits. And it is spread too thin now.
You want to help-go there quit taking from our poor.You heartless thing. Are we not noble you want to help--who is paying for it? I hope your not an accident and have to live off benefits--because they won't be there and you can beg off the streets so some one else can have a better life!
The problem is people who don't understand the whole scoop on things.
You want to hurt others so you can help some-my are you not the sweet one. How about when that happens we dump all the disable -old and poor at your house and you tell them how sweet you are!

Answer 2

The problem with the illegal part is there are laws against it.

The problem with the immigrants themselves are they are uneducated and there kids sometimes turn out the same way they are. I think if they're just open more schools in central America the conditions will improve. There Governments are so corrupt the people need to rebel. That's where the education comes in, they'll know better than to get exploited.

Answer 3

No one is angry about immigration, they are angry about citizens from foreign countries who sneak over the border, coming into our country illegally.

I live in a border state. I see what damage these people cause to the property of legal citizens as they are cross their land illegally. They litter, steal and destroy gates and fences that belong to farmers who live on the border.

They come into our cities and steal identification so they can work. They take jobs that our youth would gladly take for after school or summer.

Your idealism is ignorant and you need to take a look at the facts.

Also, these people don't even try to learn our language. This is because they want to take America back and make it their country. They want to bring their culture here and dambed be America.

Answer 4

What if one said I can't go home? I can't ! I speak English and 5 dialects of Spanish I have a collage education and score extremely high on tests. I'm here illegally because it's impossible to get a green card. Visas are also hard for those without the money. I could marry but would that be fair to her or me? Still no guarantee. The likelihood of me going home and living are very slim. I know you don't care maybe because you can't or don't want to believe we try to make it where we come from.

Answer 5

Yes, and when our ancestors came here there weren't immigration laws. They are in place now to help protect this country from many things, such as terrorism, over population,etc. Also, our ancestors adopted the English language in order for all to communicate. No other country besides Mexico has asked us to change to accommodate them as they have. Look around you, I'm sure you can see for yourself if you are even a little bit informed.

Answer 6

America is a soveriegn country. It doesn't matter where you came from or where your going. Soveriegn countries like Mexico make their own immigration laws not subject to review by foreign nations.

If you enter a country illegally, you are an illegal. You can't read anything else into the statutes that aren't there.

Answer 7

Get your head out of the dirt. You're missing the entire point. No one, or very few oppose immigration. It's uncontrolled immigration thats the problem. No control and in 20 years you won't be able to tell the difference in the US and Mexico. Poverty and crime will be rampant in the US. Open your eyes buddy.

Answer 8

It means you broke the laws of the United States to either get here and or remain here. It is illegal. The immigrants you refer to came here legally. If you follow the rules, the laws, and come here legally no one should have a problem. If you are here illegally then you are breaking the law and we don't need MORE criminals here...we have enough of our own already. If you break the immigration law you obviously don't respect laws and will break more laws. GO HOME.

Answer 9

Against the law
