If two convicts escape prison and have a child on the outside, should the child prevent either parent from going back to prison?
Does the child have legal status?

You know, there are illegal immigrants that come from other countries besides Mexico. It just so happens that we get more from Mexico because its a lot closer.
Please try to answer the question without bringing race or specific countries into it.

I have been saying for years that we need to do a Constitutional amendment. We the People need to demand that a amendment to the Constitution states that if your here illegal, You or a born child on our soil can not become a citizen, you can receive no health care, medical supplies, welfare, or any other item that comes free to U.S. citizens, as well as stating that Illegals have no rights under the Constitution as to legal counsel, trail to stay here, or anything that can delay them in our country, just that they will be deported ASAP, to the farthest point in their own country, also in this amendment it will punish employers for hireling with harsh fines, putting owners and CEOs in jail for years requiring them to pay the lost taxes on illegals, lost SS, lost medical collected, lost school fees for teachers, etc., just keep piling on the fees and punishment.
If there are no jobs why would an illegal come here? If there are no jobs, free things for them to steal, no gift citizenship, no schools, no medical then they would go home.
We let in some 1 million legal aliens a year that take years to apply and come, why should We the People just give criminals (illegals) citizenship or any other thing we paid for all our life?

Here the sites you need as We the People to contact your Congressman and demand that this type law is done now, not years from now. Threaten to get this out in your area, to vote them out, etc…

First of all, any child born on USA soil is a USA citizen and has as many rights as you or I have. Doesn't matter if the parents are from Mars. Second, the convict comparison doesn't fit here. Is the ideal solution to illegal immigration to send everyone home, build a giant wall, and never let anyone in? Seems like we would make own country the prison in that case. Or is the solution to find a way to get the illegal population to become legal? I'm not saying there aren't issues created by illegal immigration. The solution won't come from automatically branding illegals as bad people and treating them like inferiors. It will come from an intellectual exercise to determine how best to make them legal. In your case above, the illegal parents now have a USA citizen on their hands. Would you support a program to offer them the choice of becoming legal immigrants or going back to their native country, with the choice being theirs?

No, the child should not be allowed to stay.
Good point about the question about convicts escaping prison, because that is pretty much what the illegals have done being here illegally in the US. They should be sent back to their country of origin. They will only continue to break the laws of these United States if they stay here.
ID theft, drug smuggling, un-humanitarian living conditions, stealing jobs, pushing THEIR lives and the way that they live them onto Americans are only to name a few.

Is that supposed to be a good comparison? I'm sure illegals are as dangerous as convicts right? Get a life!!!
