why do so many people think that illegals are the cause of gangs, drugs, english not being used, n all that...

Question

other crap?? why duz everyone feel they gotta blame all their problems on them? i dont get it.

and the whole english thing is annoying. even if all the illegals were deported, theres still gonna be people who speak spanish, or watever language in public, cuz some legals dont speak english.

Answer 1

It basically boils down to american bullies.Ya know how a bully always picks on the weaker ones?Well,thats how some americans behave.They need to blame every problem on somebody,God forbid not them,so they pick the weaker population.They know illegals can't legally do anything to protest nor can they fight back b/c they are here illegally.If you notice,before the illegal immigration thing ,most everything else was blamed on the black race.They started gangs and dealed drugs and were drunken crack heads.So,I'm sure they are kinda happy not to be getting picked on as bad as the illegals now are.But the thing is,alot of people aren't even picking on just illegals,it's the whole spanish population thats getting a bad name from it all.People automatically assume all hispanics are illegal mexicans who start gang wars and have no respect for the USA.That is definitly racism,in the most unfairest way.We all know that the gangs and drugs were here way before this fuss of illegal immigrants came about.And it was every race,color,sex and creed who partaked in this.And nothing has changed,american ppl are still to blame as much as illegal immigrants,probably more.They are just being bullied and it's not fair.

Answer 2

Not all of them are, but there are a large amount that are responsible for those things!! HELLO MS 13, that gang is from El Salvador,,,,,,,the majority of the gang members are illegal, was even started by illegals!!! Drugs you ask?? hmmm evidently you don't realize that the vast majority of narcotics being sold in the US comes from south of the border, and usually brought to you by an illegal. And there are cases of people living here for over 20 years and still can't speak English.....what purpose does it serve to practically refuse to speak English??
And I don't blame all problems on them, but I'm not so naive that I don't recognize that they do create problems.......
1 million sex crimes committed by illegals, where I come from that's 1 million too many. If they weren't here, we wouldn't have 1 million victims!!

Answer 3

we all know if the immigrants were sent back to there country there will still be crime violence and gangs. we have gangs ran by every very race in America.

and we are at some point all immigrants. who really was here first??? the Europeans or the Natives we all know that answer? Well way the Mexicans can't stay they are the cousins of natives it in the blood line, so, why can't all Europeans go, I know that does not sound right. but it is a though. if all have to go back some will be going to different counties and some will be confused because they don't know with county they wold like in move back to Israel or Russia, France or Africa, South America or Germany every one is not a pure breed and and AR least 5% of them is an immigrant.

Answer 4

Cause... one the national language of Mexico isn't english... two nobody blames them for any gangs except for those gangs that are comprised almost exclusively of Mexicans... three well einstein where do the drugs come from (rhetorical question)... we do know that alot of drugs come from south america, central america, and mexico... they all use the mexican-american border to transport drugs into america... some do come by the way of latino mules across the canadian-american border... to most people Mexicans are considered latino... yet maybe there something entirely different....

Answer 5

The whole English thing is a distraction, in my point of view. There is a lot of evidence on gangs and drugs, however. Illegal immigrants make up about 4% of the population and about 25 - 30 % of the prison population, nationally, according to statistics I have seen. Meth labs are one of the things particularly associated with illegal aliens.

My biggest problem is the degredation in education and other services caused by the sheer number of them.

However, for those who are seeing their culture impacted by mass immigration of poverty, the fact is that slower immigration does lend itself better to assimilation. Also, non Latin-American countries send people who believe as our prevailing culture does, that those who move to a different country should become part of that country, learn its language, and join society in that country. Latin Americans have a much lower rate of people who believe this. There have been studies done on it.

Answer 6

My grandparents Immigrated from Mexico in the 1920's and taught their children and grandchildren to love THIS country, to be loyal to THIS country, and to respect the law, Officers, Government and citizens of THIS contry. Now, what I'm seeing and many other people are noticing as well, is that many of the Immigrants from all latin countries are very disrespectful and disloyal to this GREAT country, they come now to see how they can take advantage of this great country of ours. I work in law enforcement, so I speak through experience. You would not believe what I see and hear everyday. I wish the hispanic politicians would spend a day with me and just see and hear all the negative things they have to say about the USA.

Answer 7

They are not exclusively the cause of these problems, but they do contribute to it disproportionately.

The only reason people bring these things up is to counter the picture that pro-illegals are trying to paint, that these are poor but proud people who are just here to make a better life for themselves...which is true for some, but not all...they are bringing a lot of problems into this country...or at least exacerbating the problems we already have.

Answer 8

Yes I love the fact that everyone says that the illegals are the reason for drugs. It's the Americans with the money that keep the drugs coming in. Final destination for the drugs?America off planes,trains.and automobiles.

Answer 9

The all people who come to US illegally or legally they don't come for to create or join the gangs or do drug business. There are lot of people came for their dream of future. Not all aliens are gangs members. Actually The gang members are citizen of US who run these gangs. Who ever do drug business they couldn't find any way to pass their life. Who ever like to earn money lot in short period they do this kind of illegal business. If you see widely lot of Mexicans work hard even they get paid under minimum wage . They don't join in gangs or drug business. So we shouldn't come a conclusion all illegal immigrant will be in gang or do illegal business. The people who are criminals or who like to do crime (They can be legal citizen or legal immigrant or illegal immigrant) will run their life illegally!

Answer 10

because since they already break the law by entering america illegally, they think that immigrants are going to break more laws. I think the matter is kind of dumb. they could be saving money from this controversy but instead , they refuse to save money for the also dumb war and we dont have to be paying taxes!!!!!!!!!! id like to add that immigrants are suffering from there home country (cause were like rich). point is if u let immigrants stay, we could be getting more employers to work for us an stuff.



i like the way u think, im with u on this 1!!!!!!!!
