a person could feel like they get no where.. every time you refute one misguied fool, more pop up.
ok lets see...
Bokwrm - "alot of them pay taxes to. also alot of them become get thier green cards once they get here"
The only ones that do pay taxes ( which is very very few ) pay a very minimal amount due to the fact that their wage is low and they will certainly claim as many dependants/exemptions as they can. Also the only illegals paying taxes are ones with stolen identies or fake identities.
And no they do NOT get their green cards after they get here. You cannot be converted from crimial to legal status. In other words if you come here illegally you cannot be made legal ( the only exception is political asylum ).
Hammurabi - "They do pay taxes, like you woud know, and that sex offender deal is crap"
I covered the tax issue. Of the hispanic population in the USA in general legal and illegal ( and we all know most of the illegals are hispanic ) we find that they have .. more sex partners, more lack of contraception use, more unwed mothers, more often get an STD, have a much higher per capita rate of rape and sexual assault.
Mendi8a - again tax issue covered. you can only pay taxes if you arent getting paid under the table and have an SS number. Once again if your illegal you only have one of those if you stole it or forged it.
keengrrl7 - I doubt that Italy has to pay out for millions of people at the cost of their taxpayers like what is going on in the USA.

Paying taxes - those who have a job with a stolen or fake SS number have taxes taken out of their paycheck, which they don't get to file exemptions on because they don't file tax returns. Anyone who shops in a store in 48 of the 50 states is paying sales tax. Anyone who pays for electricity pays a tax. Anyone who buys cigarettes pays a tax. All of these taxes go to fund government programs which most illegal immigrants don't use because they are afraid of being deported.
Sex offenders - Please show me where you found this statistic, I have strong doubts that this is true. However, I also think that you will find that as a general rule groups living in poverty tend to have higher sex crime rates. For example if you check the Bureau of Justice Statistics website listed below you will find that of those jailed for sex crimes 40% are African American and only 19% are Hispanic while 14 percent of the population is Hispanic (according to the US census bureau) and just under 13% are African American. This is not to say anything against African Americans but to point out that many groups are over-represented as criminals and in jails, and we don't sit around and say we should expel them all. By the way, the group that is most over-represented as criminals in relation to their demographic weight is men.

Aside from the fact that that is not a question, I think the consensus among thinking Americans is that Illegal immigration is economic terrorism. Also, the sex offender crap is true. The occupy more than their share of our prisons, and there are more coming every day. Dums say America can't afford a tax cut. I say we can't afford another illegal immigrant.

Anyway you look at it, they are criminals they have broken a federal law, they need to be jailed in their own country. People who sympathize with illegals make me sick!

Some of them actually have no criminal intentions and simply sneak over here for a better life. I still don't excuse all of them though. If they come ove here, they should atleast be willing to learn English and apply for citizenship.

Ridiculous assertions that seem to be based on foundation-less bias rather than actual fact.

Foreign nationals pay taxes from their paycheck that they NEVER see in the form of a tax return - all that goes to our system. Does it kill you to see a sick child be given medicine??? Does it harm you to feed someone who is hungry? I don't understand how you would deny basic necessities to any human being.
*FYI - my cousin (who is an American citizen who did not have insurance here) was in an accident in Italy, and the Italian hospitals took him in until he was better. They didn't deny him healthcare because he wasn't Italian, or because he didn't have insurance... It's called socialized medicine, and it shows a country's priorities.

seriously, do you believe that? They work 2 or 3 jobs, pay their bills, taxes are taken out of their paychecks, they pay for everything they buy, and Im not sure I buy your figures on sex offenders. Get to know someone whos illegal, you'll quickly learn the truth about things.

Legal immigrants and citizens are just as bad as illegal immigrants.

We don't have to,, but if we as Americans don't let our government know that we are against it, then the government will keep on doing what they are doing, nothing..
