Not to stereotype or anything (but wait--didn't you?).......
A high percentage of illegal immigrants are younger and so, yes, their physical health and strength is an assest for what they are about to attempt.....which is a dangerous and difficult border crossing.
Am I up to the task? Well I'm in pretty darn good shape for a 48 year old woman (better than most).....but I don't know if I am, and I don't want to find out.
But if you are trying to make some "survival of the fittest"..."stronger, natural selection of the fittest" argument--its darn weak.
And racist. ANd stereotypical too.
Its a matter of their youth and health--which is a characteristic that is comparable across all ethnicities.

So what if they crossed a desert and made it? They are still breaking our laws!!!!!No, I couldn't and wouldn't cross into another country illegally. I'd say the sample of Mexican society that we're seeing are the ones who would stop at nothing to get what they want, including breaking laws and becoming burdens on the taxpalyers of another country. They made the choice to illegally immigrate and to raise cain about their kids getting a good American education in Spanish! Their mental mindset is not one I'd want to have as a neighbor and I don't believe most Americans would!

If I loved my country and considered myself a good citizen of that country , but wasn't happy where it was headed .
Then I would do all I could to change the Government to help the residents of that country .
If you love your nation then why give up on it and leave , unless you want to become a citizen of another country .
If your going to go through all the hard ship of leaving , why not put it to better use and put the physical work into your own country ?

I have not spoken to a single US citizen that opposes legal immigration. We have a legal right to control who enters and what they do here. It is the wholesale ignoring of our law that infuriates us.
It is like having an unwanted guest in your house who plunders the pantry, demands medical care from you and spending money and like some bacterial infection, becomes irate when you object when they bring their entire extended family in to help them plunder your house.
We have had just about enough. If you have problems in your own country, solve them. Don't bring them to us, you just create more more us and we do have ways of solving the situation that will not sit well you or your countrymen. Bear in mind it is not the first time Mexico has created problems and we've had to go down their an kick some butt to get it straighten out.

The want to make money, the greed of stealing from another country, and the degeneration of a people so you can get your "so called land" back.
No thanks. If something was wrong with my country, I would protest and get it changed the legal way....much like many Americans are starting to do.
And the only reason you get hired is not because your mentally fit...because your not - many illegals don't know English...you resort to assimilation.
Your not more healthy then Americans, if you were, then why are you so "hungry"? Americans are strong and can do our own work.
And as for your education...don't do it at the cost of innocent people who have to feed and take care of there own children!!! SHAME to illegals!
The reason you get hired...because you will work for 2.00 a hour. Woop wah, big accomplishment.

Anyone from anywhere who comes to America illegally is a criminal. We do not want them here. There is not a single country on earth that will tolerate illegal immigration. Mexico among them.
There are jobs and opportunities here in America. We accept more legal immigrants than any other country in the world. Mexicans lives suck because their government sucks. That is not our fault and we refuse to be blamed for any hardships Mexicans may be experiencing.
There are uneducated, unskilled and poverty stricken people in many, many countries. Many would love to be able to come to America. They are not given the opportunity because there are anywhere from 8 to 12 million illegal Mexicans in America. That is simply not fair and is intolerable.
By sending it's unwanted unemployed to America Mexico is causing problems for America and all the rest of the world that wants to be allowed their chance.

Are you saying we should gover by the stongest should rule . And the weaker should just die off. We are a country with laws in place that need to be enforced. Your logic is way off so if terrorist are the strongest and cross are borders we should welcome them with open arms. There are legal ways to gain citizenship in this country, and everyone should have to go through same process. If you disagree with the way this country is run go find a better one

I think that Mexican ILLEGAL immigrants have already proven one thing by their self-selection to cross the border in violation of the law: That they have and show a total disregard for our laws from the beginning.
Why would we want to encourage the lawless to make the US their home?

You do realize you are just opening yourself up to a 'then why didn't you just build a better country than ours for yourself south of the border' response, don't you?
You assume we don't have a right to keep what we and our families created, and that you should be able to take it, just by showing up. I disagree.

Immigration has existed since the dawn of time! In order for immigration to be as through and to make a positive change in American{U.S.}lives; they have to reflect world or regional economic needs by providing unbiased laws!
