Answer 1

For the guy in the first answer: WHO THE HELL SAID SHE WAS ILLEGAL?????????? YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE ILLEGAL TO SUPPORT AN AMNESTY AND FAIR (DID YOU HEAR? FFFFFFAAAAAAAIIIIIIIRRRRRRRRRR) REFORMATION, ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS HAVE A LITTLE COMMON SENSE AND NOT BELIEVE EVERYTHING STUPID LOU DOBBS TELLS YOU!

Answer 2

This subject is too contraversial...

I can feel a lot of anger within these answers.


But i say everyone deserves chance. If they are barely surviving its because they have come here with nothing more than the clothes they had on. Try picking up from that.

If you argue that they are taking jobs that belong to citizens then answer this... would YOU work in a cotton or fruit field for 12-14 hours a day and get paid only about 50 to 60 dollars?

no one wants to do that... and those are the only jobs that they are taking... If an illegal alien is taking the job that you think YOU deserve... then you DON't deserve it. Because i highly doubt that an illegal alien with not much more than a sixth grade education and poor english can really take someone's job.

They SETTLE for less.... Americans (including me) Don't ...

I think the American people just want illegal immigrants to get legal before they come in and start working and buying homes , instead of coming in and applying for aide from any organization they can and refusing to speak English or acting as if they can't.I don't think Mexico would allow Americans to go into there country with out the proper papers or any where else for that matter. There not exempt from the law simply because they come from a poor country.And i don't think any one is happy about the money that our leaders are spending.

You talk about morality and integrity in the same sentence as ILLEGAL ALIEN? Are you nuts! It is immoral to break the law! It shows absolutely no INTEGRITY to invade someone else's country and steal from them. They take jobs like construction, jobs that we Americans need! They vote when they are not citizens. They use up our social services and because of our own laws regarding foreigners, they push our own citizens to the end of the line.I know, it happened to my son. It is the problem of the corrupt Mexican government! It is their responsibility. As far as I am concerned, we should have invaded them instead of Iraq! The steps they have taken against the US are grounds for us to declare war! If I were president of the US I would have given them one chance to get things corrected and then declared war on them! Hell, we finace them more than they do themselves. All it would take to colapse their economy is for us to stop all American spending in Mexico. And I say, let's do exactly that! Fox can kiss my A** !.
I do however agree that our politicians are just as bad these days.

Answer 5

Tens of billions of dollars are alot to fret about. Waste elsewhere does not justify more waste. Enforcement of the law would be a good first step to stemming the flow of individuals who feel comfortable taking advantage of our weak political leaders. If you want to come here, you should begin by respecting U.S. law and applying for citizenship through legal channels. Cutting the line and using our services is no way to introduce yourself to the country. One should expect less than a greeting with open arms. Spend your energy reforming and building your own country as we have done throughout recent history.

Answer 6

First of all, illegal aliens have nothing to do with politicians. Illegal aliens have broken the law and they're not supposed to be here.

So they work hard, and really do want a better life for themselves? Personally, I don't give two sh*ts because even though they are a good worker it doesn't excuse the fact that they have come here illegally, disrespected the law of our land and policy of our nation.

Illegal aliens are just trying to survive? Well, because there are over 20 million illegals in this country more Americans are trying to survive because they are taking jobs that were meant for REAL AMERICAN CITIZENS - - and those of us who have jobs - - we have MANY dollars taken out of OUR OWN HARD WORK to support them!

Where is our sense of justice? Well, real Americans are going to decide on their fate here, and trust me - - it doesn't look good.. Considering you've raped our citizens, demanded we give you everything and when we do you still call us greedy, you shoot our law enforcement officers when they're just trying to "survive" and keep this country safe.

Integrity? You've got to be kidding me. You should be asking them where their integrity is. WE STAND UP FOR EVERYTHING WE BELIEVE IN, AND WE HELP THOSE IN NEED! They're the ones running away from the real problem and putting the load on OUR SHOULDERS. They're the ones in denial - - thinking we owe them.

Tell me, what has Mexico done for us lately?? Other than.. drain our economy, rape our citizens, bring in loads of drugs, shoot our officials, and create havoc? OH RIGHT!! I almost forgot!! They "help" our economy by sending all of their EARNINGS BACK TO THEIR FAMILIES IN MEXICO!!! [You do know that their earnings they send back is just "another" loss of money going into our own economy..]

Answer 7

How many times you going to ask this lame question? Why do yo people keep trying to divert attention away from the fact that the illegal aliens commited a crime, and they need to be punished. The correct punishment is deportation.....

Answer 8

Justice, integrity, morality??? Illegals? Ahhh,,,, yeah, those words fit along the lines of the illegal aliens that are here. Send them all back to where ever they came from.

Answer 9

Because the huge level of illegal immigration of poor people is ruining our children's schools and closing our emergency rooms. It is draining funds for services our most vulnerable population needs.

What about OUR better life....particularly since WE are the ones who have to pay for it!

Answer 10

Those are two completely separate issues. No one is saying that one or the other isn't happening, we are just discussing the immigration issue here because **gasp** this is the immigration forum.
