If mexicans can come ito this country illegally and be allowed to stay why can't my eastern europeans friends

Question

Why should only certain illegals have more rights than others. I have many eastern european friends who would love to be able to stay in the US and work and send money to their familes back home.

In response to robtheman: They are not in the European Union and therefore do not use the EURO. I'm talking about very poor countries such as Ukraine, Moldovia, Romania etc.

Answer 1

Because they're not Mexicans and/or they're not entering via the Mexican/U.S. border. Our stupid politicians, both Republican and Democatric, have let over 11 or 12 million illegal immigrants invade our country. Democrats are worse, letting anyone come in as long as they can get their vote, but Republicans aren't much better, finally agreeing to build (but not fund) a 700 mile border.fence. If the Chinese could build a 5000 mile wall around their country with their own hands, I think we could throw up something pretty decent in the next 9 months. Got plenty of illegal immigrants looking for work, they could build it. We can put a man on the moon, but can't build a frickin fence. Gutless politicians.

Answer 2

David-T hit the answer on the nose.

Additionally, there is a lot of concern regarding Eastern Europe because it is percieved that many young women seem willing to marry a man for a green card, only to divorce him 2 years later and live on the government.

My wife would come here in a minute (we've been married for 1 year now), but the Embassy in the Ukraine says we do not have a real relationship, and we married only to get her a visa. That's our government politics working.

Some Eastern Europeans come here illegally via Canada, where it is much easier to get a visa. But again, the ease of coming here is only because they can sneak across the border, rather than having to enter via an airport, where there is no chance to sneak in.

Go figure. It's why I live in Ukraine 9 months out of the year.

Answer 3

Come to NYC. There are a lot of almost all cultures and races living illegally here (including Eastern Europeans. Brighton Beach, Brooklyn is known for it.).

Answer 4

while you're already right here then they decide to deliver you returned so the logical answer on your question regrettably, is not any united states. in case you dont have the criminal genuine and proper documentation to commute and overstay your 6 month shrink, then you definitely are considered an alien. each and every united states extraordinarily those with the suitable minority inhabitants is being bashed for coming to u.s. and taking on jobs etc. study the information for further documents.

Answer 5

Illegals coming into the U.S. consist of mostly mexican and south american peoples coming in through the mex/u.s. border. Also lots of chinese getting here however they must. We ARE a land of plenty. but this is getting plenty tiresome, frustrating and plenty old. Our government needs to get real tough and fast. Realistic #s are in the range of 20 to 30 million illegals in the U.S. Make em legal or send them home. too bad soo sad. If illegals work so hard they should work harder at coming in legally. VIVA LA UNITED STATES. You all know you love it or you would go back home.

Answer 6

Because your friends wont work for a dollar a day and share a house with 40 people and the US government knows it

They want jobs that amreicans would take, so they make it harder

Answer 7

It's all about politics! Your friends probably could do the same thing if they came to this country the same way.... through Mexico.

Answer 8

My best friend's family is from the Ukraine. Good people.

It isn't fair, that is part of the problem.

Answer 9

They're not allowed to stay, they're just not caught.
Tell your friends to either come in legally, or be a little more clever.

Answer 10

They can just get a ticket to Mexico and run across the border, funny isn't it you can't fly in but you can walk in.
