Complain and start petition drives and force local law enforcemnt to enfore the exsisting laws and take America back town by town City by city!

Answer 2

I'm against illegal immigration, too, but it is not practical or realistic to move every illegal out of the country.

So, for the children who are here, what, realistically, would happen if they didn't get any schooling. They would become thugs. So, while I acknowledge they have no right to take my tax money to educate their kids, I also recognize that it is in OUR best interest to educate them.

I don't know what to say about the other issues (hospital costs, & other programs)

I will likely check out the details of the petition later. I have seen to many bigots latching onto the immigration issue. I would not support petitions that were like that. But if the petition was supporting real solutions, I'd be for it!

Answer 3

No, I won't sign your petition. Because the issue of illegal immigration isn't up to us.

Have you ever heard of the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Plyler v. Doe, 457 U.S. 202 (1982)?

The state of Texas had created a law (May 1975) requiring that all children enrolled in the public schools be either U.S. citizens or legal immigrants -- prohibiting illegals. A little more than two years later a lawsuit was filed in Tyler, TX challenging the law as a violation of the 14th Amendment's guarantee of the equal protection of the laws. All three levels of the federal courts came to the same basic conclusion -- the law is unconstitutionally discriminatory. The U.S. Supreme Court's ruling was by a narrow margin, 5 to 4, with Justice Brennan writing the majority opinion, for himself and Justices Blackmun, Marshall, Powell, and Stevens. (In previous cases, Justices Blackmun and Powell had taken the view that the state may constitutionally ban legal immigrants from jobs as police officers (Foley v. Connelie, 435 U.S. 291 (1978)) and that getting an education is not a constitutionally guaranteed fundamental right (San Antonio Independent School District v. Rodriguez, 411 U.S. 1 (1973)).) My "favorite" (note the sarcasm) part of Brennan's opinion for the Court is, "It is difficult to understand precisely what the State hopes to achieve by promoting the creation and perpetuation of a subclass of illiterates within our boundaries, surely adding to the problems and costs of unemployment, welfare, and crime." What a swell job of understanding the motives of the Texas legislature.

Six years after the Plyler decision, Professor David P. Currie, writing a two-volume text called "The Constitution in the Supreme Court," had harsh words for this particular decision. He wrote, "With all due respect, this is carrying solicitude a little far. Public resources are scarce and those who have no business being here can have poor claim on them. I may have a right to keep a burglar out of my house, the Court appears to be saying, but once he is there I must invite him to dinner."

Answer 4

No but I'd be all for your support to a true end to the problem by ENFORCING the freaking law and making employers pay hefty fines for hiring and using the stupid fence money for this increased enforcement, if employer knew we meant it when we say no hiring Illegals not only wouldn't they be motivated to come here but all that money you're worrying about in benefits to illegals could be used to pay a living wage to American workers, don't trim weed pull it out by it's ROOTS

Answer 5

I'm sure that you have proof of these charges. Would you be so kind as to post it?

Even without trumped up issues, we need to control our borders. I'm for more legal immigration, but stopping illegal immigration. I won't sign your petition without proff of your charges.
