No. Wanting a better life for their families is NOT a reason to come here.
Coming here to be American with our English and flag, etc is.
Coming here for a better life for thier families and turning their communities into Mexico is INEXCUSABLE.

No. The harm which undocumented workers cause is far greater than you might imagine.
My brother was hit my an "undocumented worker". His car was destroyed, but at least he survived. The "undocumented worker" was arrested for having NO LICENSE and NO INSURANCE and DRIVING RECKLESSLY. Aside from that, the accident was entirely the fault of the "undocumented worker". The end result? The "undocumented worker" made bail and skipped town, probably moving thirty miles away to do the same thing. And because they are "undocumented", there was no recourse, no way to track them down, and no one to cover the damages.
And that is -mild- compared to the overall harm of "undocumented workers". That phrase itself is a lie. Undocumented workers. Like somebody forgot to fill something out. They are illegally in another country. Not just working without proper paperwork filled out.
Illegal aliens have the highest crime rate of any demographic group. Illegal aliens have a very high incidence of traffic accidents. Illegal aliens drive down wages anywhere they go because they will work for less. Why will they work for less? Because often they are paying little or no taxes. The current best-estimate is that over 60% do not pay taxes on their wages. Which means that honest people can't compete.
Your so-called 'undocumented workers' cost the people of this country a terrible price. But perhaps their worst sin is failing to work to make their country of origin a better place. If we didn't accept the flood of illegal immigrants, a lot of experts believe that the conditions of their home countries would improve because of the increased pressure from lower classes.
Ask yourself this, if a flood of a million Americans illegally went to Mexico City and began demanding rights, what would happen? How about a million Polish people illegally showing up in Moscow? A million Japanese showing up in Beijing? Can you think of any other country that would be as tolerant of this violation of the rule of law?

Even if they want a better life for their family, which I can understand. How can they think they are giving their family a better life when the first thing they do is ILLEGAL. That is not the way to teach your kids. Then the kids will grow up thinking its ok to do things the wrong way. If course the way our gov/t sees it, they can just come on over and the USA will take care of them and pay their bills. They can just sit back and have kids or steal identities etc. I know they are not all bad and their are some honest, hard working people just like any race but they must enter legally. Their is a right and wrong way to do things. No in between. Take care.

"undocumented worker" LMAO honey you mean ILLEGAL ALIEN!!! And to answer the question it's not a sin, but is it too much to ask these border jumpers to do it legally??? All illegals need to be deported!! They are ruining this country, economically, socially and ecologically. (think about it, it's all a domino effect) We have immigration laws/ policies for a reason, this country can only take in so much before we are overloaded (like we are now) this will reek havoc on us in the long run..environmentally speaking.

Jessica is stupid... but to answer your question:
yes.... of course they want a better life-
most who come over are poor and will never be able to afford the price of becoming a legal citizen in the united states and when you don't have enough money to feed your kids and support your family yet you are working 60 hours per week making almost nothing..... you tend to look at any viable options unfortunately..... that includes leave all the you know and risking your life to try to make a livable wage in the u.s.a. they don't care about respecting the laws of this country..... not because they are sinners but because if you had to choose between feeding your children or watching them die..... the decision would be quite simple wouldn't it????

No they came into a sovereign nation without permission, and that is illegal in every country, and they are costing the American tax payer billions. This is a nation of laws and the laws have to be enforced, just like Mexico enforces the laws. They need to apply and come legal like every immigrant, what gives them the right to break the law. Just type in ( the high cost of illegal immigration) and you will find dozens of web sites.
PS. they also have a responsibility when they come (legally) to assimulate into our society and be an American if they don't want to learn English and fly our flag then stay home.

Wanting a better life for their families is not a sin. Their sin is going about it illegally. If they took the appropriate legal steps, their being here wouldn't be a problem.

Do it in their own country. Their SIN is breaking the laws of MY country. They may be bettering the life of their family, but they are doing it at MY families expense. I'm not liking that so much.......
Good try though......
