Do you think that most of the people who are pro illegal immigration?

Question

Are from area(s) of the country that are not highly populated by illegal immigration? My theory is that most of those who are pushing for illegal immigration are from area's of the US that do not have illegal immigration to deal with. Whats your opinion, please let us all try to be respectful of one an other when answering.

Answer 1

Those who are pro illegal aliens are those that benefit from the illegal aliens being here!

Answer 2

Yes. I also can't believe that so many of your politicians are allowing this to happen. What is the point of immigration where people have to go though a tough process to get their green card and have all the right skills etc if the govenment justs lets millions of unskilled workers and even drug dealers through the back door, pointless, just pointless.
Also amazing is how when a local authority declares that it is against illegal immigration it is attacked as though it has just said it is against legal immigration.
What is it now, 3000 young healthy americans dead in Iraq and Afghanistan and countless more maimed for life while the USA is being diluted into oblivion by this southern invasion of illegals.
Or when Katrina hit and there weren't enough National Guardsmen available right away because so many were overseas.
Your politicians seem to hate you, they're more interesting in chasing the buck.

Answer 3

I think the group is made up from people not living in areas overrun with illegals (I don't see it so I don't care mentality), people benefiting from it (employers who knowingly hire illegals) and families/friends of the illegals (who are also usually aiding the illegals to be here illegally). I am sure they are not legal immigrants, their friends or families as these people understand and respect the need for the process and penalties for doing it any other way. I seriously doubt it is law abiding citizens living in areas the illegals view as havens and continue to flock to.

Answer 4

I agree with dude, I don't think many people at all are pro illegal immigration, they, like me just hate that illegal immigration causes a backlash against all immigrants, legal or not. However it is true I think that people who are not directly affected by the problem have a tendency to not oppose it, if you are a university professor, doctor, lawyer etc What do you care? all it means is you get your house cleaned cheaper and your lawn cut cheaper etc. If you are in construction or being paid minimum wage you are much more likely to have anti - illegal feelings as you are being affected directly.

Answer 5

Most of the people who are pro-illegal immigration are those who get a direct benefit from it, either economically or politically. I don't think you're going to find a lot of support for illegal immigrants in the Midwest and the Southeast, the areas least impacted by illegal immigration.

Answer 6

EVERYBODY IS AN IMMIGRANT. Unless you are a Navajo or something you are the direct descendant of an immigrant. So you would not exist to ask this snotty question if it was not for immigration.

I don't think anybody in the world is "pro-illegal immigration" except for big business. But becoming a U.S. cit zen is an extremely difficult process (especially if you are not white). This country is built on immigrants and always has been. My Grandmother came over from Italy and My Grandfather came over from Whales. Even further back on the other side of my family great, great something or other came from Germany and France. And in all of those mass immigrations people were just as scared and feeble as you are now. But you know, in the end those people are what has made this country. The only party at fault here is the U.S. government that can't figure out how to process these people so they can become citizens and receive the benefits of the tax dollars that nearly all of them pay for.

P.S. I worked in Northern V.A. housing market and I have a first hand view of how Hispanic workers are helping a struggling economy stay afloat. You should be thanking these people for their hard work.

Answer 7

I have to disagree with your theory. I believe that most of the support for Senator Kennedy's amnesty plan come from the southwestern states where most of the illegal immigrants live. CA and Texas have the most illegals in their states; southern CA is really Mexifornia now as there are millions of Mexicans living there.

People who live with large numbers of illegals become friends with them and develop sympathy for the illegal invaders, as demonstrated in the May 2007 National Geographic article about the border fence. Those people like me who have little contact with illegals have very little sympathy for these criminals. You can go to the sites below for more info about the problems created by illegal aliens.

Answer 8

There is only one reason to support illegal activities of any kind. Money Money Money. We are talking about cheap labor here. Its wrong but it is the truth. Many companies don't even look at illegal immigrants as people but economic factors in their bottom line sales, expenses, etc.

Now just imagine you are a corporation that hires illegal immigrants and pay them way below minimum and suddenly there is a call to pardon them all and make them legal. Then they would have the right to sue for not getting minimum wage as legal citizens in the US workforce. Guess who will be first in line to ship them all back home or fight to lower minimum wage?

Answer 9

For the most part yes, they have no concept of the down side of compassion, and the costs that go with it. They are more than likely professionals, with a maid or help, and they think that all illegals are as hardworking and dependable as their families hired help. Not to mention they enjoy the low cost of their hired them, and have no problem passing the hidden cost, health care, education and such, on the backs on the middle class tax payer

Answer 10

Well illeagles are everywhere, and the population is growing
i believe that unless we can get people to stop having babies
so much world wide we will have big problems!
Really colse the borders it is a useless battle!
We are almost facing hunger here in us no it or not!
One thing i can say about illeagles they are willing to work harder that most of the home breed people!

Answer 11

they probably get the sympathetic support from those areas but the main support comes from different segments of large industry like construction, meat processing and things of that nature. the reason is that greedy businessmen started using or abusing illegal help to make more money and now its a situation where in order to be competitive in business you have to do it also and the situation just compounds itself.

most areas are subjected to illegals these days, some much more than others. I think that those areas that aren't are probably more apathetic than supportive.
