Illegals leave on their own, Americans put the guns back in the gun cabinet, and please stop parking you're cars on your yard! And if it wouldn't be too much, do like me at the stop lights and turn down your stereo a little? Have some respect for others no matter what color. Don't be rude and for God sakes, stop being so vain with those old English letters on your back window because honestly...no one cares what your last name is unless it's Bush.

I agree. It seems like your average United States citizen (yes, I am an American, proud of it, and am currently working for the Executive Branch of the Government in foreign policy, specializing in military affairs) is so concerned about thier Rights that they forget that their Rights, if misused, abused, can and often does infringe on the Rights of the citizens around them.
I have no problem with Immigrants who come to the United States seeking refuge, opprotunity, and assylum from persecution. However, learn the national language which is English, or as the English would say good naturally, an abomination of the English Language. I have to ash though, why does the taxes that I pay have to go to Medicare and other benifits that should be souly for those of us who are American Citizens, go to Illegal Immigrants? This will be found to be offensive by some, but I think that the the protests and marchs would be a good time round up, sort out the illigal immigrants from the citizens, and send all of the illegal immigrants back to their respective countries that they're citizens of. We should not have to support Illegal Immigrants in the United States.
Currently, I own two large caliber rifles, a shotgun, and a handgun. I believe that it is a Right that a citizen should be allowed to own firearms and to protect themselves as they see fit. It is highly unfortunate that there are so many people in the United States who see the wrongfull uses of firearms in todays society. There should be restrictions on guns and ammo. You don't need assualt rifles with high capacity magazines with armor peircing bullets to hunt deer or other four legged game. And handguns are some of the most fun to shoot. I love shooting my M1911A1 .45 ACP. There should be no 'Saturday Night Specials' whose soul purpose in this world is to be concealed for illegal purposes. They should be banned. I dont want firearms to dissappear. I wish that there was more responsiblity and common sense used with firearms.
One thing that I have never personally figured out is why do some people feel the need to have car sound systems that will give back massages to the the people three cars in front of them? Can they even hear the music and the lyrics? I don't get it. Can you please stop infringing on my rights to NOT hear the music and get a back massage?
Maybe I am complaining, but it seems like there are too few people who are respectful in the United States today. You might consider that o be an Un-American statement, but having served in various embassies around the world and a year and half fighting for the freedom of the Iraqi People along the Syrian Border, I feel that I have a right to say that average American is rude and inconsiderate.

A good offense is the best defense.
Is this all you've got tonight? You ask for respect, and don't give it!
Speaking out of both sides of your mouth is asking politely for illegals to leave and in the next breath you continue your sarcasm. "Don't be rude," (I'm exempt is understood), and "stop being so vain with those old English letters on your back window(,) because honestly...no one cares what your last name is(,) unless it's Bush."
You don't begin to know what it takes to get along! Pay very close attention to the messages in the answers you have received here, and you will notice there is one common theme denominator. Respect is earned when given. "Reciprocity" by definition is not automatic!
The "new" tripledigit does not understand the basics of dealing with human beings, illegal and legal. But, this is better than the usual bully buttons you push...guess a start is better than nothing.

You are such an optomist tonight! Me, I'm just getting more bitter every day over this issue. And racisim is growing in me like a cancer where there once was none. Southern Cal is no place for those damn boom-boom stereos and the disregard that comes with them. My truck starts vibrating and I always think an earthquake has hit and my heart jumps, then I get pissed and yell out F'n illegal, take that crap back to Mexico, the border is just a few miles away afterall. Only 1 in 5 radio stations around here actually play American music to begin with, so I'm lucky to be listening to my country station when I'm at the stop light trying to hold my truck still and drown out that Mexican boom boom crap that I couldn't understand if someone paid me, dang it rakes my nerves. I wonder how many babies are growing up deaf around here because of that crap. Gees! What is happening to me? I'm getting to where every Mexican I see around here is automatically considered illegal in my mind. That's not fair, I know, but it's honest. And dang what is with those old english letters anyway? I don't get that at all, seems like an oxy-moron to me. These illegals and their disrespect for me and "We the People" are the root of the racism that is now growing inside me. It's their fault that my mind and heart are becoming bitter towards anyone who resembles a foreigner. I am adult enough to know that I have a choice, but hell, when everywhere I go around here I am treated like the outcast, I feel like the one who is out numbered and foreign to this land, I see that my skin color doesn't fit in, nor my language, or music, I stop for a Taco and a Beer and can't read the menu, I spend my lunch break alone because my Mexican co-workers have made it clear to me that I have nothing to offer their conversation, I can't tune in a radio station that plays music in English, I pay for cable channels I can't watch because they're all Mexican, I walk down the street and old Mexican men shout at me as if I were a common street hooker. RRRRR!!!!! Talk about rude....it's in their nature. And the one that gets me the most...I can't sit here on Yanswers and debate an adult conversation without being called a racist or an idiot or a gringo or......So ya my friend, tonight you are the optomist and I am just a bitter old racist ***** that can't stand anymore of the Mexican crap. They've even managed to cause me to forget that Mexicans are not the only illegals in this country, LOL. They demanded my attention be strictly on them and they got it!

More a homily than a question! But yes, people can all get along if they show the sort of consideration for others that you are advocating; though maybe "illegals" don't necessarily need to leave.

Is Yahoo answers the place to ask impossible questions? This question has undoubtedly been asked millions of times since human civilization began. Maybe a first place to start is to stop believing in God. Such a belief usually leads to believing God is on your side and you are good and they are evil. That's the source of not getting along. Recognize the worth of every person and don't project on an unreachable God and maybe people will get along. Maybe.

No, we can't get along. We're simply not compatible. I'm an atheist, and as far as my inference skills go, you're not. I consider UNDOCUMENTED (I refuse to believe a person can be "illegal;" people aren't illegal, but their ACTIONS can be) people essential to this nation whereas you want them to leave (unless you're just stating they leave of their own volition), and I don't care for Bush at all. In fact, I hate him (to put it MILDLY...). Oh, but don't worry! I promise not to park my car on your yard.

Wouldn't a perfect world be boring? Not that I don't agree with you about most of these things, but what would any of us have to do if it weren't for the worlds imperfections.

Well....
Sadly, American ignorance, arrogance, selfishness, and closed mindedness.
Blindly following Christian Ministers teachings to rally out and support for War on other Nations.
Expressing lack of respect to other races and other nations.
Living in isolation, and isolating ourselves from different races back home in order to protect a certain race.
Many Americans like us are superficial and full of hot air.
Many Americans believe that the world rotate around them.
Many Americans are cruel to many Nations and races and then Americans ask the most famous stupid question
"Why do they hate US"!
Americans Families & societies are based on hollow grounds with no morals and values exist. American People always have on their minds "sex+party+drugs (like alcohol and etc)", and behave worse than dogs. Many Americans are in love with dogs and cats more than trying to love neighbors and families.
Most Americans who came to America were criminals from other counteries and this criminal behavior transferred through their Blood. We like to continue to place our foot in people'.
We can never learn to get along, only if we learn to respect ourselves as Human beings and treat others as equal entity.
I hope we as we America could change ourselves, fight the demons inside us and better out selves.
