it seems that every Tom, Dick & Jane r using this illegal issue as an excuse to blame everything wrong in the US on the Illegals. is this an easy out, instead of taking responsibility for our own lack of attention towards everything thats wrong in our country from our education system, welfare, Iraq war, economy,corruption, etc?

You know,this immigration phenomenon didn't happen overnight,so why this revelation and illumination all of a sudden
I don't think that the cyber display of hatred and ignorance is that relevant though...

I think it's pretty obvious the burden that illegals are creating in this country. Is it our only problem...definitely not. But is that a good excuse to turn our heads and let the illegals in?...of course not.
They overpopulate to the extent that our schools and health care can't keep up...scary. The main stream media still hasn't reported the extreme violence they create in our society. The truth of the matter is that we have a great education system except in the big cities where the minority violence overwhelms it.
I have a problem with people that think "hugs" are going to cure our woes. Those are nice between friends and family but are not going to solve any issues. It's time to say enough is enough and enforce the laws we have in place. No illegals!
Do you ever wonder why some foreign countries are in such disrepair? We always want to blame it on "the Man" or the government. It's actually the people. It's how their own people treat themselves and personally I don't want those kind of people here.
Instead of thinking about short term relief so you can sleep better tonight, think about what is going to happen to your offspring if illegals are able to overrun this country. That is what keeps me up at night.

The lack of attention we have given our borders are the reason for the illegal problems.Your ignorant if you feel that the people of this country blame illegals for any and all problems in this country.But why don't you see that illegals are part of the problem and admit that and accept its a fact .
Immigration and Poverty
Because U.S. immigration policy slants toward admitting relatives rather than immigrants with needed workplace skills, our immigration system is importing poverty--a time when America is still working to meet the challenge of assisting our own poor and disadvantaged.
Immigration and Income Inequality
The number of undereducated immigrants in our society is rising, as is their share of the poor population.
Immigration and Welfare
Immigrant use of welfare programs is 43 percent higher than non-immigrants' use.
How Mass Immigration Affects American Minorities
Job competition by waves of new immigrants depresses the wages and salaries of American workers and hits hardest at minority workers and those without high school degrees.
Criminal Aliens
Non-citizens who commit crimes are a growing threat to public safety and national security, as well as a drain on our scarce criminal justice resources.
I blame most of this country's problems on Bush and people like him,we are in an uncalled for and unattainable victory war,that is costing billions ,The past presidents didn't do anything to help the issues either.I feel that it is more than time for personal responsibility .I am only responsible for my own actions or non actions.I don't blame illegals for most of the problems but they do have to shoulder their own responsibility too ,they are not victims in this scenario.Here in AZ they are a major player in this states problems.

The illegal immigrant issue is a more of a nuissance than a problem. I live in Northwest Arkansas and see it everyday. My girlfriend teaches a new Pre K program at a local school designed for poor children. Most of those kids end up being Illigel immigrants. The people are just coming here to work and provide for their children. But are countries problems are mostly from our current administration. That dipstick president and all his dealings have created most of our current turmoil. So if you are an illegal just keep living youor life. But the current Americans would like to see the people that come here be loyal to this country instead of there homeland.

I only blame the illegal Mexican border crossers for the drugs they smuggle, the money they steal, the gangs they bring, and the crimes they commit. I don't blame them for something they don't have a hand in. Why do so many people like you, turn your head so easily to what they have brought, and try to make excuses for them. Maybe you came illegally who knows. Either way there are plenty who have come here LEGALLY who have made a genuine contribution to this country and those people I commend. If you are here illegally than except the fact you are breaking the law the minute you cross the border. I will not take sympathy for them.

I think a lot of people are, yes. But there are also some of us who know where to place the blame. I don't blame immigrants for our problems. I think they should go about getting into the country a different way... it's not like we're denying them entry or anything... We just want them to do it the legal way. But I personally have nothing against immigrants, illegal or otherwise. Have an awesome day :)

I think we look for reasons to blame other people for every thing that go's wrong. It's human nature. I think that the USA needs to be more careful about illegal immigrants because if Juan (looking for a better life) can get in undetected than so can Oman (I hate America and want to blow it up) I think that we should open our doors to Mexico they are our neighbors and deserve better than what they are getting from their country. But we also have to think about being able to Financially support our population.
I Digress! The USA has it's problems and it can not be blamed on one issue it is many issues that are to blame. people that blame everything on one issue are ignorant and need to inform them self's about the "issues" In our great country before they open their mouth.

Absolutely not. There are plenty of legitimate problems that are rightly blamed on illegal immigration, but there are plenty of holes in our government and problems in our country that have their own sources. I don't think that everyone is blaming illegals for everything.
