I couldn't really care, but perhaps if you are being reported then it is for a reason?
One thing I would like to know is that if you lived in somewhere like Zimbabwe, facing the wrath of Mugabe (sorry if that is spelt wrong) then I would bet my life that you would do anything to get to the UK, or another safe haven.
Illegal immigrants are stealing our jobs? Well perhaps true, but only because we don't want them. Many illegal immigrants are not allowed to work.
One thing that gets me over and over again, is that I find it so hard to understand that where you are born on the earth, remember just a tiny planet in the midst of the universe, should determine your whole life and why people should be persecuted for no reason whatsoever. Please do not get me wrong, I totally understand what you are angry about and believe me I sometimes feel the same. Every time you get angry about illegal immigrants try and think about the hardships that you have not suffered, cannot even contemplate and will never have to suffer, because you live in a free country.
I would also imagine that not too many illegal immigrants would use this website, though I might be wrong, would be hard to find out I guess, but perhaps that tells you that maybe it is not them that are reporting you!
Would also like to point out that I am a UK citizen, and all my family and everyone I know is a citizen of a western democratic country.

My guess would be 5,057! And, you wouldn't know the truth if it hit you square between the eyes.
Do you even realize that you're double posting just about every question you ask?
By the way, in response to the vulgar spam you sent, don't bother sending any more...I have set the message filters to be sure and place your tripe where it belongs: in the TRASH folder.
Secondly, your lineage is hardly impressive. Your family came to America before the Civil War? BIG DEAL. So did mine. At least I don't have a big chip on my shoulder about it like you apparently do. We all come from immigrants and the chief reason why our ancestors weren't "illegal" was because immigration was encouraged by our country...remember the the old thing about "give me your tired, your poor, your huddled masses yearning to be free"? Of course, you probably haven't had a chance to check out the Statue of Liberty, eh?
Everytime a new group starts to arrive in the US, the people already here complain about them. This present wave of immigration isn't nearly the threat you so nervously spend your nights sweating about.

Why is this issue even an issue? The fact is that uncontrolled immigration of any kind, leads to chaos. Why do we even have a government if we don't need control over social and geographical issues, including our borders?
The American public voted in the current laws that regulate immigration. There are controls and quotas in place for every ethnic group from every country in the world. If these quotas are wrong than adjust them. do not be tempted to overlook breaking the laws in order to get here before anyone who has applied within the laws and quotas. By placing quotas on all other cultures and ignoring the ones who come here illegally we are discriminating against the law abiders. If that isn't more odious then being racist, then we are making ourselves look like fools to the rest of the world.
If the laws are wrong change them. Don't make the first act of 75% of new Americans a crime, because then they disregard all of our other laws (or haven't you noticed?).

I am not sure how abuse works on yahoo and if they actually review the statements themselves, but there is a difference between fact and opinion. Disrespectful comments should be reported but facts such as the hospitals going bankrupt, welfare fraud, etc.. and other issues should not be an issue if reported.
Then that means that the comments/questions every supporter of immigration can as well be reported by clicking the little flag no matter the content.
Bottom line yahoo should be reviewing the statements.

There is no way for you to know that the people reporting you are illegal immigrants. There is nothing to suggest that you are in possesion of the "truth" about the illegal immigration issue. I can therefore conclude that you don't know what the hell you're talking about.
I have no desire to immigrate to whatever country it is that spawned you. No offense to your more informed countrymen.

im not an illegal immigrant, but hunny, you must realize this:
most of those immigrants only want one thing: to feed their family. if you lived in a very poor place that had little or no opportunity and you had a wife and children, wouldnt you want to give them a better life if you could? sure, there are some that come here and comment crimes, but not many. its just that a few bad apples will spoil the whole bunch. most are law abiding. they are hard workers who only want to see their kids eat and grow up a better life than they did.
