Why do so many people talk so many bad things? Illegal immigrants don't hurt anyone only those racist people are the ones hurting this country. They are very beneficial to this country, only those ignorant racists people won't open their eyes and see the great contributions they have done to this great country. This site is filled with many racist people, that say so many bad things about immigrants; however, they only say this online and would not dare to say anything in front people. Say what you want to say, your hatred will keep you from accepting the truth.

I have the same oppinion on here as I do in the "real" world... Illegal Immigrants are Illegal! I happen to live in a community that is receving a slight influx of illegal mexicans and they are causing alot of pain in the area. Police are having a hard time pulling them over or giving them direction because of the language barrier. It is not right to have so many people in this country that are ILLEGAL! If these people who are illegal, whatever country they are from, if they are illegal they need to go back and do it the right way or be charged with being an illegal alien in this country.

I am a Mexican American who does NOT believe that people should be here illegally! So go ahead and call me a rasist all you want...because it won't make any sense! You say they're not hurting anyone? How about my husband's family's landscaping business that after 30 years of working in this city, they're losing customers to illegal aliens who will do the same job for dirt cheap...? What about all the drugs that get smuggled accross the border through some of those illegals that aren't hurting anyone? What about all the crimes that are happening in border towns that are being committed by illegals?
My grandparents came here LEGALLY and worked their butts off to make a better life for their families. They came here, learned English, and they were DIRT POOR when they did it! Why should it be different for anyone else? The problem is...people want something for nothing.
The other problem is all you people that seem to think that just because others want the law to be obeyed, you automatically point and call "rasist". You're judgemental and ignorant and have no clue at what the REAL issues are. Come down to my town for a couple days and see up front what these "poor immigrants" are doing to our country!

Race has nothing to do with it.
If a person commits a crime then they are a criminal. If a person comes to this country illegally then they are criminals. Maybe the way they live here is clean but they have still committed a CRIME and should be deported immediately. Whoever hires a personn who is an illegal immigrant should be fined big time!
My descendants came over legally from EUROPE>. As did the descendants of millions of others in this country. Why does our government want the people who have come ILLEGALLY be treated with special favors.
I would welcome a limited number of immigrants who come LEGALLY initially and who are not GIVEN legal status because they were lucky not to get caught crossing the border.
We have too many other issues in this country like a WAR in IRAQ starving American citizen children, elderly, health care etc.! Illegals should be returned and then follow procedure to come to this country LEGALLY.

I don't have a problem with immigration. Pro-illegals seems to like to play that card, though, when they don't have a snowball's chance in hell of proving themselves right. They say, "Oh, wait. I don't have a valid point on this, so, I'm just going to cry racism."
So, dear, what race is it that we "racists" are against? I, personally, couldn't care less WHAT color you are. If you are taking welfare off of MY tax dollars, and I can't get assistance from the government if *I* ever need it (because they are supporting illegals who don't pay into the system, but take out of it), YOU are a problem, race aside. I want EVERYONE to follow the laws, and for some reason, you people think that's a problem and that we are being racist. Obviously, you are not paying taxes.
Illegal immigrants exploit the system. They do not embrace it. There is room for only ONE flag in this country, and it's the American flag.

My father's family immigrated here in the 1700s. They did this legally. My Mother's ancestors came in the 1800s - legally. My wife is a now resident alien, but when her visa expired years ago, she went back to her home country, because that's the law. She returned legally. We all pay our fair share of taxes (begrudgingly) and respect the laws of this country.
People who come here illegally don't pay their fare share, they become a burden to this country because they come from an entitlement culture, they continue to break our laws because they never respected them in the first place. Honestly, if these things were not observed facts, no American would care about illegal immigrants because we are a very compassionate and welcoming country. But we can no longer tolerate this growing disrespect for the law. Why? Because it is hurting people.
Our prisons have an inordinate number of illegal immigrants in them. They're not in there because they are undocumented but because they have committed violent crimes like rape and murder. Illegal immigrants often smuggle narcotics into this country with them. I'm not talking about harmless stuff, I'm talking seriously harmful drugs.
Those are the facts. That's why Americans are asking our government to enforce the law. Nobody has said - he lets change the law to get rid of all of the Mexicans! We just want the laws enforced because we have seen lives ruined due to a lack of enforcement.

What planet do you live on? All that is occurring is a transfer of burden from a third world country who can't invest in their own citizens who encourage immigration to the US. Also, 84 hospitals in CA have closed because of the increased costs of illegals who go to the ER to get primary care. Now US citizens in these communities have less health care choices.
Its not a matter of racism. This is a standard argument by liberals when subject debate occurs. The evidence is too strong against wide spread support for illegal immigration. Legal immigration is fine. It needs improved controls and enforcement to help it along but we need to control the US boarders.

Great Contributions? Please tell me your not serious...very beneficial, ok this has to be a joke. Remember what the word ILLEGAL means when you go defending these people. We arent racist, just thinking rational. Accepting what truth? You make absolutely no sense. You should accept the truth that those you are defending are making demands on the US and taking advantage of the welfare system and getting free healthcare while there are citizens that are being denied. Please tell me how this is fair. Your subject sais WHY ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS? Because they are breaking the law thats why. The rest of your statement should just be disregarded.

here we go again, illegal immigrants do hurt more than just racist people, obviously you live in a cave or somewhere in this country that is not yet touched by this immigration problem, i live near our nations capitol where there are so many illegal immigrants that its not funny. Finding a job around here that pays enough to live off of is un-real, and that is mainly because these illegal immigrants that take the jobs dont pay taxes and there are three to six families sharing one 3 bedroom apartment so it cost them next to nothing to live here. At one time i worked with someone who came to this country illegally he obtained a work visa and sent all of the money he didnt need to live on back home to mexico. When I asked him if he liked it here and wanted to become a citizen he told me no he just wanted to work her get his family here and once they were here he would save his money and return to mexico to retirewhen he was about 35. Now lets analyze this, he doesnt want to be a citizen he just wants to make american money then go back to mexico with what he has saved to life nicely for the rest of his life.now i am not racist but becuase of certain thing i am prejudice, and this instance is one of the things that made me that way. Like I have said beforeif you want to be HERE...BE HERE, dont make our money and take jobs from the people who are here correctly and then go back.

DUH! If you break the law to come here you have done something wrong. When work is done "under the table" It is illegal. When benefits available to tax payers and citizens are given to someone who is neither it is immoral. We are not racist. I would love to see the people in Mexico fight their corrupt government. I don't want an invasion. I am tired of our classes in my hometown being filled with children whose parents do not speak English on a functional level. I am tired of watching babies pop out like an assembly line so that benefits are earned. If you are here illegally, you are nurting many people. This in not hatred. Mexico's immigration policy is much stricter than ours. Mexico requires people to speak their language and assimilate.

People move to US now for the very same reasons that they did 3 hundred years ago (they can not make it in their own country, for whatever the reason). I can guarantee that even legal immigrants that have been living here for 10 -15 years would probably consider returning to their country if the situation there changes.
Many people who were born here and hate immigrants forget that their families are immigrants as well, they just happened to come here earlier, in fact America IS THE COUNTRY OF IMMIGRANTS, unfortuently a lot of people forget it. Illegal alients stay illegal not because they are bad people, but because they do not want to be send back and believe it or not, for some the living conditions are not much better then in their home country.
