The borders should be secured and then all of this nations federal and state laws against illegal aliens,and their employer's must be enforced with zero tolerance.Deport all illegal aliens.
America must be for legal Americans not illegal trespassers. We can not feed and house all the worlds poor or this nation will become just another starving third world country. Make the nations that theses people come from support and care for their own citizens. They need to rise up and show their governments that they want a better life in their home country's and now demand it from the USA.
This nation was first populated by immigrants not illegal aliens. That's the difference. I don't even know of anyone in my family since 1702 that wasn't born in this nation.Americans made this nation great and bountiful ,not illegal aliens.

Absolutely we should have a closed border. We should know who is entering our country and why. I am all in favor of immigration and those that go through the proper procedure and are here legally, welcome, however those here illegally should be apprehended, prosecuted and deported. What can we do to make illegal immigration better. Well the first thing you've already said, secure our borders and ports of entry. Secondly we need to find and prosecute the employers that are using illegal laborers. I know every job I've had in the last twenty years, I had to fill out an I-9 and give a copy of photo ID, Military Discharge, Social Security etc. to prove I was legal. INS should have the authority to enter any place of business and demand to see the I-9 and photo copies of the documents used to very work authorization status. This shouldn't be that hard as most illegal aliens are unskilled labor working construction, agriculture, service jobs like bus boy, wait staff etc... Make severe penalties to those employers who knowingly employ illegal aliens, and for repeat offenders give them some time in a federal prison to think about the American economy and National Security.

1. US Gov't: LIMIT and Enforce IMMIGRATION to acceptable numbers: Like 170,000 per year, instead of the current 1,000, 000 + that is cascading into our country right now!
2. The Mexican government, or what passes for it, should take charge of their political and economic situation. By that I mean they should try to get their people jobs in Mexico; instead of passing the buck (or peso) and encouraging their people to invade our United States of America. America is a somewhat convenient place for people south of the border to slide across, guided by American business's promise of jobs.
3. Make American companies accountable for their crimes of hiring illegal aliens. American companies are thriving from the low wages they pay to the immigrants (and real American's), this increases their profit margin. Construction, fast food and other service industries love the illegal immigrants, and in most cases, look the other way.
4. Closing the borders is possible, but you will still find that smugglers and individuals will always find ways to break our laws. I believe that securing the Northern and southern borders is essential to keeping American from becoming a "THIRD WORLD" country. OUR United States Government has the ability to enforce standing immigration laws, but they allow the invasion to continue.

What the United States government is literally doing is REPOPULATING the good ole US Of A to keep the economy viable and competitive, at the cost of the native population. If we "legal" Americans do not take a stand, and soon, then we may not be able to in the near future, and the only people we will be able to blame is our lazy selves.

Mexico will never start to get its act together until we get a functional fence put in between the U.S. and Mexico.

That is just a first step, but a necessary one.

When it comes to Mexico, "Tough Love" should be practiced by the president and our state department.

We should ask these questions loudly and continuously:

If Mexico is a republic only 45 years younger than the U.S. republic, why is Mexico still a third-world country and the U.S. is an unrivaled economic superpower?

What the hell happened?

If Mexico has more natural resources and natural wealth than most of the developed countries in the world, why does its people remain so poor?

Why hasn't it developed a modern technological economy like
the other developed countries only half its age?

John F. Kennedy had a special development project for all of the Americas that he gave top priority to.

It was called THE ALLIANCE FOR PROGRESS

The United States needs to resurrect this visionary project and to invest in Mexico POLITICALLY first and ECONOMICALLY secondly.

All of the undeveloped countries of Latin America must have their feet held to the fire until they begin to catch up to the rest of the developed world.

Mexico produces a lot of babies.

Mexico needs to produce enough HOMEGROWN HOPE and HOMEGROWN OPPORTUNITY to go along with all of those babies !!!!!

Simple fix, what do you think?

Try this experiment.

Put a bird feeder in your yard and fill it with bird seed.

It doesn't take long before the birds learn that a free meal is in the offing. They come by the hundreds.

Now, empty the feeder. What happens? No more birds.

Take away the free medical care. Take away the free schooling. Take away the free welfare. Take away the jobs. What happens? No more illegals. WOW!! What a simple solution!

No need for a border fence at the cost of hundreds of millions of tax dollars.

Do you think this could work? Let's pass these thoughts around.

1. Secure the borders.
2. Everyone get off their high horses thinking they are right and the other side is dumb or sheep.
3. Teach our kids morals like picking on the odd kid is wrong.
4. Destroy this myth we need 2 incomes to make a family work. How about 1 income and live without all the toys.
5. Take better care of the most important thing in this country our future and that is our kids to discipline them and instill moral fibers that can bind this nation together again.

6. Trash moral relativism and set up moral codes like blowing up buildings and killing Americans with planes and bombs is wrong and punish them rather than send happy thoughts.

7. Provide more safe places to drop off newborns like nation wide hosiptals or fire stations without question.

8. Start treating others like we want to be treated no matter what you are or what you believe in.

That would be a good start.

Personally, I think giving people a firm grounding on the basics of the Constitution would be a good start. Once we reached a "critical mass" of the populace realizing that spinach subsidies are beyond the authority of the federal government, we might just start electing people of integrity and re-establish the USA as a free country. It's probably not too late.

US didn't do any flawed - from a couple of replays. If there used to be a bad to take delivery of it used to be towards Slovenia for containing and grabbing Bradley within the penalty discipline. Ref goof up that is all I can say. hmmm....at the lighter aspect - I beg to invite this - used to be the ref biased towards US or did he see anything that we didn't or the cameras didn't trap. Only he is aware of higher.

I don't think i'd use the word closed, but control of our borders and ports would be nice. Along with that enforcement of all immigration laws.
