Answer 1

*I agree with the point you're trying to make but I think you are wasting your time. A lot of these certain Americans have already made up their minds. Most of them are not looking at this on a political basis but on a racial basis. It's not only that some Americans just don't like illegal Mexicans..they just pure and simply don't like Mexicans period. Most think that they actually own the US but of course they don't..We are all merely visitors here as we won't live forever. This fight of illegals should stay in the hands of the government not for the citizens to take in their own hands. When the US gets blown off the map then who the hell will care anyways. It is really sad to see that this nation is more held together by HATRED than by banning together by love and respect for one another. But of course by the time they learn this it will probably be too late. Have a good day Kobra.

Answer 2

True and I understand where you are coming from BUT.... It doesn`t need to be people flooding here in drones !! We the tax payers are supporting not all but alot of these people and it is keeping are min wages down to WAY below poverty level. No matter how you look at it they are taking are jobs not paying taxes (like we HAVE to) not to mention the medical costs we are endouring having free babies and emergency room visits not paid for because they have no ins . I think for the money we are spending on this problem to keep immagrants out why don`t we (lets tell the truth we are talking mostley about Mexicans) Help make Mexico a better place to live. If they could make a good living there they would`t want or have to leave their families and take the risks that they do. It would cost no more to do this than what we are or will have to spend to keep them out. Eventually even maybe if we get the ball rolling the Mex gov would help seeing their country is prospering from this. That`s the only way all countries will learn to live together in peace is to HELP each other and learn from each other what works and what doesn`t. Of course you will always have the barbaric Iranians and their alies that their ignorance and arrogance will never let them learn anything because they are all mentally retarded !!!

Answer 3

So all are homeless can move into your yard to go to your school rather than slums. And if the schools can't bear it--so what-who cares if your children don't get the education they need, You do know on a world wide scale--we have dropped to one of the 10 lowest. And all our homeless (we have thousands and thousands) can move and cause a burden to any city or town--hospitals can close (it is only the sick and elderly who can be hurt.) And if some are sick and can pass that on to your kids and your neighbors-that is OK because many will not. And if some are dangerous that is OK too--because they are poor and uneducated.
So order shouldn't mean anything-it doesn't matter if others get hurt because some are helped. After all they need it. Who cares about laws-it's who can be helped not hurt.
Who cares if it hurts our children. They don't count. What counts is that we help others.
Who cares if it is unfair to others who are working to do it right.
As far as Jesus--he would never approve of law breaking or disorder. He never said to the people of his time(who had great burden and where oppressed by the government)--break the law and you will have what you need-that is what counts. No-he said follow the laws and put your affairs in my hand. Wait and endure till I come. Not surprised many don't know the whole book-they just like parts which are meaningless without the whole.


Add on: Dar brings up a good point--if you break a law-don't expect that you don't have to pay the consequents. They are from the choices you made.

Answer 4

Yes, I would enter into this country illegally. However, when I got here I wouldn't be protesting to get rights that I knew from the jump I didn't deserve as a non American Citizen anyway. Illegals aren't stupid. They know that crossing the border w/o a Visa is illegal, and they do it anyway for the reasons you have outlined. But that doesn't mean that just because they are poor and hungry they shouldn't be prosecuted for breaking the law.

It burns me up even more when illegals from Mexico and Central America make this argument. Yes, more of them are able to cross the border because of the close proximity. But for instance Haitians, other immigrants are booted back to their countries real fast. And I don't see the Latino immigrant organizers of protest supporting them. And in Haiti they are so poor and hungry people are literally no joke eating mud pies.

And I'm sure Jesus would make it so Mexicans, Haitians, Asians, etc. wouldn't have to leave their countries illegally. Because they would already have a stable govt. to live in.

Answer 5

The problem i see is that Mexico could be a great country if the effort used to cross the U.S. border were put into changeing there way of life . We had to fight to change America to make it a better nation for our people . So they need to make a voice in there country . If there hear, they make a voice in our country . They want the easy way to a better life . And i have been to Mexico and would have to say the conditions there are sad to see . I would love for Mexico to become a great nation for the people . I love many things about Mexico , the culture is so rich . I cant blame them for wanting a better way of life for there family . But i am not Pro illegal

Answer 6

Your bleeding heart is dripping all over your question.I'm way past feeling any compassion for law breakers..First ,I would not have a family I could not feed.I would have not brought children into that type of situation.I would have used my big head and not my little head .It is the fault of the Mexican people that they in this modern day live in poverty.The corruption of the Mexican government is not a new thing ,its always been that way.By not marching in their own streets demanding change they have allowed this to continue for years.It is not this nations job or responsibility to take care of Mexico's problems.Mexico is a very rich country.The people must work to fix Mexico instead of trying to change America into Mexico..I am agnostic but all Gods demand that one helps ones self,and a crime is a crime no matter what you chose to call it .Thus the name ILLEGAL .I don't believe you anyway .I think you are not from anywhere other than California and /or Mexico.

Answer 7

Hmmm...know what a shovel is? You dig this thing called a 'hole', and plant 'seeds', and 'grow stuff'. How well you eat without money is kind of based on how effective a farmer you are...

My question of you is, 'what happens when America goes broke'?
How long after that do you think it would take for Mexico to follow?
I give Mexico a month, at the outside, on its' own.

Support the US Border Patrol! End the drug and human smuggling from Mexico, get Mexico's politicians OUT of our government, and support full public transparency on the US/Mexico border issue! NO voting rights for Mexico on America's domestic policies!

Answer 8

Since Mexico is a very rich country, I would march in the streets of Mexico and demand that we have a government that works for it's citizens and not expect to dump all their poor on another country and cause them to become a third world country. Mexicans have no problem speaking up when they get in this country. Does any country have the right to export it's poor and drugs into another country, instead of facing it's problems and correcting them? Jesus would tell the Mexicans, "Thou shalt not covet".

Answer 9

could desire to you quote me financial disaster and verse on that please. If it quite is not too lots to ask might you keep your language first rate additionally. There are some who are available in right here who're women and don't in all risk want to hearken to cursing and others who locate it offensive era. Jesus on no account pronounced that we could continually stay in poverty. you are able to't prepare it in case you researched the Bible from Matthew by Revelation. He purely taught that we are to be content textile with notwithstanding we've - that could desire to be riches or poverty. He additionally taught that those with greater could help those with much less. as a consequence, riches are sturdy to have by way of fact the greater we've the greater we can grant. He additionally pronounced it is way less complicated for a camel to flow for the time of the attention of a needle than for a rich guy to income the dominion of Heaven. Translation: it quite is not impossible, yet riches tend to make many forget approximately that God gave all of them they have in the 1st place. The Bible additionally says; "Godliness with contentment is large income." and "What shall it income a guy if he income the finished international and lose his soul or what shall he supply in exhcange for his soul."

Answer 10

I am all of those things and I LIVE IN THE US! Where are the poor of this country supposed to run to, huh? Not only are most of the citizens of the US "lower-middle class" aka. "poverty level citizens" but we are burndened with higher rates for everything including taxes and public services. We are also living with a lowered job standard. No...I do not agree that they are stealing our jobs but I do agree that they are lowering the standard. Now they can pay EVERYONE less. Thanks illegal immigrants!

Answer 11

If my children were starving and some horrible but difficult to believe situation kept me from providing for my children and my neighbor were rich and I knew where he kept his money for his own children's education fund, and his own retirement fund, conceivably I might steal it. If I got caught, I would expect to go to jail.

That is exactly what they are doing.

Angela, Jesus didn't say to theives 'go and steal some more, it's ok'. He said 'I forgive you, now stop'.
