I can help my country? Yeah!!! Right!!! I can.
I can help my country by not supporting bigoted, racist movements as yours is. Personally I would like to have the foreigners here illegaly to do the jobs that most people refuse to do. They work hard, most of them, and stay below the radar (not commit crimes) so as not to be "picked up" by la migra. They are doing the best to feed their children and survive.
Your tax dollars, contrary to popular belief, are being squandered in a war where we do not belong. The immigration problems "costs" compared to this fiasco which you probably support is in the neighborhood of 1 : 100,000. I think that if I were you I'd be thinking of the 100,000 being squandered versus the 1 that is going toward the heath costs, education costs and other assorted costs with the illegal immigrant "problem". BTW I live in San Diego. I am a minority. I am white.

Flooding a country with people is always a problem because it upsets the economy and security of the country.
Immigration problems include matching the incoming people to the death rate-birth rate of the natives plus an adjusted percentage to provide for expanding economy.
Every country concerns itself with these factors.
Illegal flooding a country, with immigrants, upsets everything since most of the problems of a country include the number of people who need to be considered when plans are made.
Since the number who want to come into America is so much greater than the number who want to leave, we have a large problem and we need to take strong measures to correct it.

There shouldn't be any borders. This country was inhabited long before any Euros came. Who do you think lived in California and Mexico before the west was "won". You don't have to get a visa to go to Canada or Mexico.

i was just on my way to buy some shoes earlier this day, and let me just say this, today on the exit to tha store there was this lady, caucasian, i'm sure she has legal papers and could get a job anywhere if she cared, she looked just fine but no she had to be asking for money with a lil sign pretending to be the victim, and there was another lady who was selling roses, latin, with no legal documents probably, working for her money and working for a living, illegals come here to work, this may not be the total population of them but tha majority u can be sure of that, this is where i stand, this is what most people don't see or notice, tha caucasian lady would be accepted anywhere because she has citizenship, but the lady who was selling roses, if she doesn't have legal papers would be rejected from most jobs, now u tell me where u stand

Uhmmm what is the purpose of going to the border? Seems like this type of rally only encourages misunderstandings, accusations of racism, and possible breakouts of violence a la Kent University.

I think it is time that we DEMAND our politicians do something to stop it and not just some junk like sending 2k National Guard troops to just go stand there.
As far as any type of militia, I do not support that.

Immigration must be regulated in order to protect citizens for employment opportunities and prevent occurrence of crimes.
