I can't say I actually "support" them but I can tell you why my heart is kinda with them and I can't bring myself to get all fired up to kick them out...I am from the East Coast and when I came out West here are all these lazy West Coast Americans with no work ethic whatsoever, and that is what makes the market for the illegal mexicans: They work their butts off! It's really hard to resent some hard working guy out there trying to make a better life for his family, no matter which side of the border he was born on.

Illegal immigrants have helped serve the expediency of hiring for some businesses who've had hard times trying to get a regular and legal workforce, they've also served the needs of those seeking to 'make a little extra' by under-paying their illegal help and lying about how many employees they have. So, the business owners that like to do things that way are great fans of having illegals that they can hire, rather than getting to the bottom of their real problems. Other people feel sympathetic to them because they come from bad situations and/or poor countries.
And, some are illegal immigrants themselves, or those that otherwise profit from poor border enforcement in some other way. There's lots of different reasons, but the truth remains that the border, and the immigration laws, both need to be enforced.
Support the US Border Patrol!

Profiting of of so called cheap labor. It's only cheap for the crooks hiring them. "Everybody does it" kinda folks. Those employers support them and our government supports them. Hell they are even educating them all the way to the college level! I will have to put a lean on everything I own to put one of my three children through college. Basically our insane government thinks that educating them will keep them from being gangsters and whores and slumming up the country instead of spending that money sending them home were they belong. Why would you sharpen the enemy's sword? Are we that brainwashed as to think it is an immortal sin to suspect ones status because he fit's more than just color, the description of an illegal alien. Start with the obvious first. Every time we check papers and nab an illegal, place a law suite on Latino rights groups for harboring. It's time to cut the crap. They know it and ,we know it, I think the Mexicans are amazed at how long they have gotten away with this" free for all" as are we. I think most are amazed at the liberal panty waist government and how they are able to intimidate their own people.

I don't really support the immigrants coming here and breaking the law....But I do understand why they do it...Its a matter of survival and if you have ever been to the real Mexico, you would understand too. I think the immigration laws don't work and need to be tweaked to include those who want to come here for an honest living.

I know them as people, not as vermin ala Hitler as many of you feel about them. I know them in the US. I know them in Mexico. I know their families, their mothers; their sisters; their parents; back in Mexico.
Most of them that I know are hard working people, and if they could come in as legals, they would be glad to do so. If the 7 million illegals from Mexico here today had applied back in 1835 during the battle of the Alamo, most of them would still not be admitted legally.
As far as claims that illegals come in to get welfare, let me explain something. THOSE INDIVIDUALS ARE ALMOST ALL FEMALE. Down with political correctness; tell the truth.
I have observed immigrants, legal and illegal. if we allowed in a million Mexicans a year as legals, this country would be stronger, not weaker.
On one condition. we need to tell the president of Mexico that we will let in a million legals a year, but the first time one of them rapes or murders then runs into Mexico and they protect him, we are going to come in to get him, and we are going to make a mess going in and coming out.

Because we care about human beings and understand the need for the fight for a better life.
