They are terrorists. How the hell can they be offered amnesty?

I'm glad that you have so much strength in your lord.
However didn't YHWH tell us to also follow Man's law as well? Isn't it funny individuals believe it should only apply when it suits them. Sounds as if somebody needs to study a bit more. It is what it is.

Its clearly(as plain as day) in black and white that the supposed protests they had were IN FACT "Certified Acts of Terrorism." There's no denying it, and the proof is self evident.

Again, It is what it is.

I find it funny that the Immigration act of 1965 was another prodigy of Kennedy.

Or how about the fact NAFTA passed both in the house and senate in 1993. Who controlled them then?LOL. This is going to be one hell of a mess to to clean up after.

Now it makes sense why they wanted to destroy me so bad. I'm a threat.

Well first off I would like to say that I am of Hispanic heritage and am a 3rd generation American. I feel that Amnesty should be a BIG NO-NO. There are far too many illegal immigrants in this country and it would definitely make things worse than they are. I mean, if them being illegal still doesn't stop them from getting U.S. benefits. Then they would definitely be getting more and taking benefits from those of us who are here legally, and who were first to be here. Another factor is that how do they know who they are giving it to? How would they know it's not some kind of terrorist, drug smuggler or low-life scum who doesn't deserve it? In 1986 when Reagan gave amnesty I can just imagine the number of terrorists who were given legalization in this country. Back then there were far less illegal immigrants, but now there's is too many. So now we have to reward them with amnesty for taking our benefits, not trying to speak English, not finishing high school, came illegally and etc? I don't think so. Wow, they came fleeing from poverty, and that gives them the right to come illegally and take everything they can from us? Boo-Hoo, there are many poor countries around the world who dream on coming here, like the people in Ethiopia. I don't even want to think about all of the illegal gangsters/criminals who would become legalized and the women who think they are still in Mexico and having staircases of children, which taxpayers have to pay for. I mean if you ask me even those babies who are born here shouldn't even be considered citizens because they will continue doing the same as their ignorant parent's (Baby-making machines) which we pay for again. They do not deserve amnesty. However I do think there should be another form of possible legalization for illegal immigrants who have contributed to this country, not abused the benefits or taken any benefits of this country, learned English, got an education, learn American ways and traditions, have no criminal record, and etc. Otherwise sincerely I do not believe that amnesty is the solution. If I as a Hispanic American can see that, why can't Kennedy who is much more American than I? I know Hispanics may criticize me but I can see from both sides here, they only see theirs. If my mother took all of the steps to legalization, they can too. It would not be fair to those who took or are taking the steps the legal way. There are people who were sent back to their countries for a period of time to become legal. There are people in other countries right now waiting for approval. There are people who have been waiting for years to become legal. It would not be fair to them.


Funny that you say Amnesty is great for those who have contributed to this country. But didn't you read the whole thing? It clearly says " LEGALIZATION SHOULD BE GIVEN TO THOSE WHO HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO THIS COUNTRY, LEARN ENGLISH & ETC." Maybe you don't exactly understand the definition of amnesty: It grants pardon for ANY PAST OFFENSES; Overlooking and intentionally forgiving those who have done WRONG against the government . There is a BIG Difference in AMNESTY & LEGALIZATION. I believe that you meant to say LEGALIZATION is great for those who have contributed to this country. Amnesty & Legalization do not mean the same thing.

That's a good idea, the government has to fill all the areas we don't want to work at, thinking that the only good areas to work are behind the desk, we need people who aren't afraid to get some dirty to make money to help our economy to increase and because the locals aren't doing it the government will give the American dream opportunity to people who really want to work in this country, perhaps they already are doing so, but know the chance will be better, because we complaint too much, but we don't do anything about it, so because some body have to do it the government thought in this amnesty. So, What you gonna do about it? Will you start to work in the fields and in the farms and in the poultry industry and stop living from the welfare?

Was Timothy McVeigh Mexican or a foreigner? No, he was a blond white blued eyes guy who bombed away a federal building in Oklahoma killing many people. So your statement that they are terrorists is very wrong, the most dangerous terrorist still living among us and in the Middle East.

Stop crying and start to work and for those call Hispanic heritage stop been so hypocrite and start to think that these people have the same dreams your ascendants had when they arrived here, you should extend your hand to help them to achieve the same goals they did and to learn how to love this country without forgetting who they are.

Ted Kennedy is an idiot.
And this amnesty for criminals has got to be the dumbest thing I've ever heard..
Whats next amnesty for murderers,rapists and terrorists?

Correct me if I am wrong, but wasn't the last amnesty given to illegals suppose to be a one time deal. By introducing it into legislation again makes them liars and infact illegal. But then again we always knew our Govt. was up to dirty tricks.
Amnesty to criminals! You've got to love this Country!
What a joke!

guess what honey life isnt fair.. i find it funny how many ppl, especially hispanics, discriminate on other races. some say its not racism, many of them are the ones making the racist remarks. America has been a counrty known for its power. If most of u know about history you will find out that all great impires have gone to ruins. Like history tends to repeat itself. This will happen to the U.S. hopefully not anytime soon but it will. My religious beliefs are strong and being good to one another is always a good thing when it comes to our lord. Believing you are better than someone else is never good. In fact, you should be ashamed if u think that way. Most immigrant ppl i know are not on welfare, and do pay taxes. Its the 2nd generation that usually takes away from the government and about 75% of the time 2nd generation is more involved in gangs and other sorts of criminal activities. I have lived in ghettos for years so i should know. Amnesty is a great idea, but only for those who are willing to contribute to this country. I am sure ppl will be checked to see if they have any criminal background. And to all those ppl who claim this land is theirs, first think... how did u get here.. this whole land was first owned my indians which sum where mexican indians. therefore, anyone who came here second were also immigrants yet ppl tend to forget about that. anyways i can go on and on but my point is that amnesty is a great opportunity for many ppl who want to better their lifes. And lets be realistic, immigrants dont affect or impact ppls lifes as dramatic as most ppl make it out to be. Its mainly hate that drives a person to think negative towards another, in this case immigrants.. yes on amnesty!!!

"I mean if you ask me even those babies who are born here shouldn't even be considered citizens because they will continue doing the same as their ignorant parent's (Baby-making machines) which we pay for again." wouldnt that mean your family was those so called (baby making machines) and you were a result of that.

The Democrats sure like to pardon and then reward people who break our laws.

If you have children, you had better enroll them in a university now or else they get to get on a waiting list BEHIND illegals.

Nope, Ted Kennedy should've gone to jail for murder a long time ago, and shouldn't even be a Senator. He''s a scumbag.

Rewarding law breakers. What will the liberals think of next. Maybe, open borders. I can just see Kennedy, down at the border, next to a big open house sign. It might read, welcome, no fee, no paperwork, no waiting. Oh and free welfare.---------- Maybe he'll call it a one time fix all. Anyone remember that one.

I am pretty liberal & I am in no mood to grant amnesty to any illegal. Personally I'm for buiding the huge fence over Az & Tx but they'd just burrow under it.
