Why can't people admit that the only reason to restrict immigration is xenophobia?

Question

Because whenever I mention this fact, my question or answer gets pulled for "insulting the other participants"??????????????? I don't get it?

Most economists say the way to go is free trade. Also, It's condradictory to allow free migration internally but not internationally. Just be honest for a change. Even liberals don't want so much immigration that they lose their language, so just admit you want immigration restricted to 1) protect your language and 2) to stop the face and character of your country from changing too fast.

Answer 1

Because they are xenophobic probably. Too scared to admit their bigotry.

The Minuteman Project = KKK

Answer 2

decrease than the ols scriptural defintions, a individual is in simple terms to undergo witness to what they in my view have seen and experienced, to declare something could be bearing fake witness. What a individual sees and reports of their existence is the only actual quaifier. nevertheless in many cutting-edge christian sects, this style of evidence is eradicated in choose of the 'faith'. techniques like 'faith' in simple terms make it actual. Which if 'faith' on my own makes something actual, the 'heavens' could fairly be crowded with each and all of the gods and goddesses of each and every of different peoples around the worldwide that folk have had 'faith' in as a results of fact the break of day of time. in my view, i've got consistently like 'Elijah's' very final attempt to the clergymen of ba'al Baal in a million Kings financial ruin 18. in certainty, asserting in the journey that your god is actual, then summon him. real right here, real now, and end the debate. i could advise which you study your bible alittle closer besides related to the character of the christian god. Isa 40 5:7 I style gentle and create darkness, I make weal (wellbeing) and create woe (misery/sin), i'm the Lord, who do countless those issues. Amos 3:6 Does evil befall a city until the Lord has finished it? Ecc 7:14 while situations are solid, be satisfied; yet while situations are undesirable, evaluate: God has made the single besides as a results of fact the different. consequently, a guy won't be able to detect something approximately his destiny Jud 9:23 and God despatched an evil spirit... EXO 32:14 And the Lord repented of the evil that he thought to do to his human beings Deut 2:30/Eze 3:8 God hardens hearts Deut 32:39 "See now that i myself am He! there is no god as properly me. I positioned to dying and that i convey to existence, I even have wounded and that i visit heal, and no person grants out of my hand.

Answer 3

Restrict immigration to those that can provide a service we need, similar to that of Australia.

I don't confess to knowing the laws associated with immigration. But when someone can immigrate and immediately qualify and be placed on federal assistance (social security, medicare, etc...) without having contributed one penny, something is seriously wrong. If I want to donate money...fine, but the government should not be able to donate my taxes to pay for these individuals.

Answer 4

You say the following:

so just admit you want immigration restricted to
1) protect your language and 2) to stop the face and character of your country from changing too fast.

But, based on your phrasing, if I admit to those things, you will declare that I am a xenophobe.

My take is that there is nothing wrong with wanting to protect the very society and structure that allows us to be successful.

So many people want us to be isolationist when it comes to us meddling in foreign affairs, then why it is wrong to be isolationist in regards to immigration? And I'm not talking about completely cutting off immigration, just maintaining a structured, orderly process of acquiring access.

So, I am not afraid of the strange or unknown, I am simply concerned about what I do know. Left unchecked, illegal immigration will negatively impact the future of this country. Why should we waive our rights to screen and approve all immigrants and limit the overall numbers just like every other country already does?

So, if what I've said makes me a xenophobe in your eyes, then you have used a different definition for the word than I would.

Answer 5

I assume you are speaking about the U.S. since I read some of your other posts, though you don't mention it by name here.
Not all legal immigrants speak a language other than the common language here (English).
Not all illegal aliens speak a language other than the common language here (English).
You are merely wording it different to try to make it a racial issue. It has nothing to do with language or race.
Immigration #s are set with no regard to "language spoken by immigrants".
The U.S. accepts more legal immigrants into the U.S. than all other countries combined.
NO COUNTRY IN THE WORLD allows "free" immigration, nor should they.

Answer 6

Admit? Only Reason?!

Okay, Captain Canada.

First, I’ve never complained about your questions (never seen one), and second, rather than feeling you’ve insulted me, I think you’ve insulted others (yourself, maybe?). Free trade? What’s “free” about permitting all money we’ve spent in good faith for our own to be diverted to lawless invaders (would you sit silent if your police took your parents' money and gave it to the Irish Republican Army?)

So, on that note, I’ll keep this simple. Provided no child of an illegal is granted citizenship, no invader is permitted to steal the money my elderly parents paid for their own security, provided we can live with the certainty that all these “decent” invaders are accountable and will leave once they’ve lived out their value to themselves and us…once all that is done, then come back and ask this question again. Perhaps I’ll be moved with sufficient respect to answer with less bias.

Period. End of (a prison) sentence.

Answer 7

Xenophobic, another way of saying racist. Yawn.

Too bad that I am also Native American, or else you would be using the 'Natives were in America first card' too. While you are applying the xenophobic label, why don't you add---territorial, apathetic, patriotic, "Get your illegal butt off of my property or I'll shoot." labels too.

I have pis--d off more illegals by having them deported out of Arizona than the KKK, and I STILL don't qualify for membership.

You need to admit that you want America to become a third world.

Answer 8

We have illegal immigration in the southern California area that has runined California. The taxpayers are over burdened by paying for these children going to school, free housing, free hospital care, free foodstamps. And I pay for it. I have paid taxes all my life and have never collected a nickle from the govt. but I am required to pay for the illegals who decide to get on the dole. I am assuming that you live in a northern state since you have no idea what you are talking about and are not affected.

Answer 9

Other reasons to restrict immigration are to control who is in your country...not because of language or race but because of things like serious criminal records. Some of the things they check for in an immigration application are criminal records, serious health issues (HIV/AIDS or untreated STDs) and associations with groups that are a threat to our society. It is possible discovery of some of these could be cause for denial of an application. These are all legitimate reasons to reject someone and they have nothing to do with xenophobia. Some people are xenophobic, but not the vast majority. I have no problems with immigration as long as it is done responsibly and legally.

Answer 10

I also live in California and the public schools have been ruined by illegals. We are now paying for our kids to attend private school. Why the hell should I pay for their health care. Illegal aliens also get in-state tuition at colleges while a kid from AZ has to pay higher fees even though he is a legal citizen!

Answer 11

I want immigration limited to people who won't come here to rape our women and little girls,and kill them and sell dope!
