Doesn't it bother any of you that in Hollywood most of the actors casted as Americans are Austrailian or British? Look at that movie All the King's Men. Three of the 4 lead characters were British. Why are they getting into the U.S. and getting work over American actors? It isn't like there is a shortage of American actors.

The issue is why are the British and Australians being let into this country so easily if they don't have a skill that is really in demand?

So the real issue is race, class and assimilation.

It's because they see latinos as a threat. While the British are a lot like us Americans, Latinos are different and are therefore a lot scarier. I'm not saying I agree- that's bulls***

Are you like OK in the though process department,do you have fever and chills as well, immigration as a issue really has very little to do with Hollywood, until Hollywood chooses to make a issue out of immigration,maybe if you wait long enough, they will make a movie about the real life of Latinos and then i promise you will not have too many things to say at all, until then, buy a rabbit ear antenna so you can get better reception on whats going on, have a nice day.((((( AND- by the way if you have a tan, immigration will not give service to you, and some people simply will not put their families in the recycle bin or on hold, make it a fair system for everyone, and their will be no more problems.

THESE bRITS ARE RAISING THE BAR NOT LOWERING IT. tHESE ACTORS DO FAIR WORK FOR GREAT WAGES. mEXICANS DO GOOD AND DIFFICULT WORK FOR LESS THAN THAT WORK IS WORTH. tHUS BOTH LEGAL AND ILLEGALS DUE TO THEIR NUMBERS LOWER THE BAR. i HAVE NO PROBLEM WITH THE LEGAL, THEY HAVE A RIGHT AS DO i TO DONATE TO THE CAUSE OF MAKING THE RICH GET RICHER WHILE THE STANDARD OF LIVING TAKES A DIVE, STILL i WISH THEY WOULD DEMAND HIGHER WAGES, BUT THE ILLEGALS ARE IN FACT STEALING FROM aMERICA.. sOME SAY THAT aMERICANS WILL NOT DO THE WORK. i WILL TELL YOU WHAT aMERICANS WOULD BE DOING opps if there were no illegals working fro table scrapps they would be making and maintain machines to do that work. When it was necessary to dificlt work in hard circumstances Americans did it and for a fair wage. Now that work can be done by the next great invention and progrees would be made and standard of living would rise paying people good wages to make and operatate those machines in a comfortable environment. They need not be done forever under poor conditions. Cotton used to be picked like that now it is done in and airconditioned cabs and these machines are manitained or can be in airconditioned buildings.
Mexicans have great family values for today but what about tomorrow can you see you do not want your kidz picking grapes in a field on a hot day. Do you want forever to be serving tables to the elite and being looked down on so you can go home to be loved by your extended family.
Please do not ruin a good thing, cuz of lack of vision into the future where you might be wishing you had thought ahead.
Wrog the issue is too many, too little illegal
Brits are temporary and do indeed have a wanted skill, they can act and speak english learn those needed skills and you too will be welcome, the acting part comes in when you say I am not worken for peanuts and walk away, when you really would.

Huh? I would bet a hamburger that all of those actors you refered to didn't sneak into the country illegally. As far as those actors, do I detect that you are questioning their ability to act? (lol). The point is, people are concerned about people pouring in over the border illegally. It gets even more of a concern when they demand medical treatment and other benefits. But certainly, if these people can freely come in, so can enemies who want to kill. And those people don't care if any or all of the people they kill are illegal Latinos either.

WOW 3 out of 4 Gee thats sure makes 20 Million PLUS look like a TINY Number. Heck since you put it that way we better open the Border WIDE open since 3 out of 4 actors in a movie were from other country's.

First, you're an idiot. Second, we aren't concerned with brittish actors, because they are most often not immigrants. They are still brittish. They make a movie and go home. The latins-more specifically the mexicans- are the biggest problem right now. So many are here illegally, and so many send money home. They are economic vampires. Plus they're annoying. The music-the language--soooo irritating.

We're not focused on Latino, we're focused on illegal. The actors you mention worked legally. Criminals should be prosecuted because that is the law. The law doesn't care of the background. The question you need to ask yourself is why are so many criminals Latino?

Actors are not coming here by the milions in open defiance of our laws. Have you ever heard this word before?
"I L L E G A L!"
"I L L E G A L!"
"I L L E G A L!"
Do you know what it means?

What does that have to do with Latinos and why is this in the immigration section?
