America is a country of immigrants. Whether from the Mayflower, from Ellis Island or across a border adjoining the U.S.
All of us came to America for a better life. I believe that the Mexicans crossing the border come for the same reason. It takes generations for a country-specific influx to be absorbed into the culture. The Irish were hated, the Italians, the Germans... all immigrants have their turn at being the 'bad guys' and the reason things are 'bad'. The truth is that all of us make up America.
The root cause of an immigration problem is that employers are hiring these people.

My husband use to be with the FBI, and really isn't into the "conspiracy theory" stuff...until May 1, when we attended an illegal rally in Utah.
We came home and spent hours researching a word we heard chanted over and over AZTLAN
We were horrified.
Apparently there is a mindset out there to totally erase the borders, blend all the countries and become a bigger 'superpower'.
The question remains, if this happens, who rules? Will Chavez, who hates America...take the lead? Will Mexico, with it's badly displaced but vastly rich resources...take over? Will we simply run ourselves into the ground and become a massive "another" third world country.
What is apparent is that Mexico is actively funneling millions of it's loyal citizenry here. The conclusion must be that they wish to overthrow, seize, and conquer the USA from within.
They are where they need to be to destroy the America we know.

Good question! But that would make too much sense and they wouldn´t be able to play the victims anymore. Plus, "fixing" Mexico would be a bite too big to chew for anyone. It will take decades of political, legal reform and restructuring. Most pro-illegals wouldn´t be able to survive a week in Mexico before screaming to get out.

Fixing Mexico is not their goal, destroying the United States is. Study US history, it's not that long. This issue is almost identical to an issue that faced the US 160+ years ago. There are subtle differences, but the political parties view/stance remains the same now as it did then. Back then, it was about Right & Wrong. Today, it's about Right & Wrong. Both involve the treatment and equality of people. Both involve people here to work. Both involve people coming from another country. However in one issue, the people wanted to come and chose to come on their own, the other issue involved people who didn't have a choice and were forced to come.
One issue involved people who believed in equality, regardless of ethnicity/race and fought for it. The other involves people who don't believe in/want equality, use ethnicity/race to divide people, complain about unequal treatment while demanding they be allowed to have different processes.
Some people were forced here, fought for freedom and equality by wanting to be a part of the process/system. Some people are tunneling/forcing their way in, fighting for inequality and don't want to be a part of the process/system.
It's not coinsidence that in both issues, some people spoke/speak English and some Spanish. In both issues, there's been a great divide among English speakers, while Spanish speakers for the most part, remain/agree on one side.
Again, it's about what's Right and what's Wrong. There's People of all colors, on both sides. Forget what they look like, figure out what are they saying? The information is out there, people have to want to figure it out for themselves and stop relying on others to tell them how it is.
Thanks.

Lets face it, everything about illegal and even legal immigration screams TAX HIKE! This is good for the government. Its obviously not good for us as citizens but then again, like I said before, immigration is not here to benefit us.
And yes...it is in my opinion that immigrants are, for the most part, leaving their country for the wrong reasons. They should be trying to make something of their home land instead of running away. The bleeding hearts can help them with this by traveling to their country (illegally if they like, haha) and help them rebuild and restore.

Because they are lazy, uneducated, low life scumbags. Would rather get it for free than work for it. Besides, if they tried this in mexico they would either be shot or imprisoned.
