If I open up a Yahoo group for all of us who want change concerning the porus border situation, would you sign up? Step up and be counted. If there are enough of you, then I will create one. If so, come here tomorrow to find the link. I see that there are lots of people who are pouring out their fustratin concerning illegals and the border situation, but nobody seems to want or know how to do anything much else.

I'm a member of several groups and I would be interested. People are upset over the illegals that are dying fleeing across our borders. Do these citizens stop to think that they are the ones helping to get them killed, along with President Bush and his amnesty program? (This program that is the antithesis of our terrorists program.) These people wouldn’t be in these deserts if they weren’t assured of jobs and government intervention. They are not stupid people, contrary to popular belief. They know there are people that will help them evade the law by calling it their “Christian Duty.” They know they will receive welfare, WIC, housing, medical care, and other government subsidies upon entry. They know someone will hire them since the employers won’t pay a living wage to the American people. They know that they will be protected by the government when they say, “I’m pregnant” because their child is now a US citizen. Now what do our older and less affluent US citizens know? They know that they will be turned down for health care unless they are dying. They know that preventative care won’t happen for them. They know that our social security is in trouble yet the government is willing to give it to illegals. They know they have been turned down for SS even when they have needed it most due to medical conditions that make it just about impossible to work. They know they are stuck in dead end, low paying jobs because they can’t pass physicals and the government says, “You have a job so you don’t need help.” Both sides know a lot and it’s causing hard feelings that at some point will cause deaths in the streets and not just during crossings. Feelings will intensify when the old and needy have had just one too many deaths of their friends because they couldn’t get help before a crisis took them. We haven’t properly screened illegals for diseases. We now have diseases coming back into the schools that we had thought eradicated. Our children are in danger since several of these diseases are antibiotic resistant. We haven’t run background checks to see if we have felons crossing. Many of the illegals in our prison systems were violent from the start. People want to give them a chance without thinking of US citizens’ safety. Now we’ve had another terrorist threat that could have happened on our borders instead of coming out of the U.K. toward the U.S. borders. If this had happened on our borders, someone would have given the terrorist water, food, and directed them to the nearest government agency to get their SS and housing. I have friends from other countries. I love them all. They care enough for themselves and us to go through legal channels. They know that it is in the best interest of this country, its citizens, and themselves to stop disease, violence, and bigotry at the border. My foreign friends will tell you, “Show your respect for this country, its citizens, and us, its new found friends.”

Not only would I sign up..I'd die to defend the right for you to start this group. That's what makes this country what it is..and that's GREAT. We as a people need to see whats going on,not only are the illegals from Mexico coming here through those porous borders,don't you think the rag-heads are too. how many of us will die before the bleeding heart left figures this out.

It would be nice to be able to discuss the situation intelligently without all the name calling, irrelevant issues, and totally getting off track. All these imposters, the harrassment and childish pranks are making this category ridiculous. Would any of that change? Would it be any different? I'm willing to try it out.
I would hope those who are serious would be doing more than just voicing their opinions on Y!A, though. I, and I hope many others, are joining in anti-illegal protests, letting their senators and congressmen know how they feel, support the minutemen, sign petitions, talk to people, do polls, and will VOTE!

Our president has handed America over to Mexico. What do you think you will be able to do with a web site. If we don't vote all the bums out, all is lost.

Look at the new map on my Avatar. This is the "Elite's" plan and destroys our citizenship rights in USA - our rights already went byby - welcome to the NEW WORLD, learn to adapt to it, or make a stand for your beliefs.
