where there was no jobs and no way to support your family and the only option was to sneak into the US to provide for your family would you do it?

If the only way was to get a job in the US, I would apply for entry the legal way. I would certainly not try to sneak into the border. Crappy living conditions is no excuse to break laws. If you can't financially support your family, then maybe you shouldn't have started one to begin with.

Obviously most Americans and anti-illegals won't be able to understand this question. Americans, because they wouldn't really understand what life is outside the US (I kind of don't), and anti-illegals because they only believe and stick to the negativity of some illegals and use it against all. They would still say no.

But that's why people from around the world come here. They need to before it's too late. And if doing it the legal way is not an option, they will do whatever no matter the risks later on.

Maybe. If I did I would learn to speak the language and try to "blend in" with their society. I would work and keep my mouth shut so as not to draw attention to myself. I would NOT protest in their streets nor demand any rights from that country.

I think that if the illegals in this country would have done these things, most Americans are so busy with their own lives they would not have even noticed they were here. But they raised a lot of attention to themselves by protesting and chanting about being THE race. This kind of BS is what pissed the American people off.

If I did I'd expect to be deported if I were caught.

And frankly, I don't think so. As I understand it, most illegal immigrants had jobs back home, they just wanted 'more'. I think I'd have too much pride to break the law and take other people's education for my own children while ruining education for my host's children.

There are a lot of things I 'want' right now, but I don't break the law to get them.

IF other nations had social and economic opportunities in their rich resource of a nation, would you still sneak into the USA? Answer that one.

Final answer is No to your question. The USA has immigration policies in place that can be followed.

Well you are assuming alot there. A large percentage of the people who come to the USA illegally ( im sure margin of error here is a bit because you can only go by what they said )
had jobs they left south of the border to come here.

And no I would not. risk leaving my family with no source of food if I got caught? thats totally irresponsible and negligent.

I would follow the example of Pancho Villa. I would make my own government prvide for my family and myself.

Yes...I think most people would do whatever they have to in order to provide for their family...but !) I would respect the country I enter by doing it legally and NOT committing crimes while there 2) I would learn the language and not try to convert them to speak mine in THEIR country 3) I would not depend on tax payer money to support my drug habits, pay my legal fees, or provide me with money...I would work

No. I don't do well with lieing and stealing identities or living in the shadows. My conscience would not allow me to be an illegal.

they would cross and be in the same situation that illegals are in now...
if you deny it and give me this BS! that you would come in this country legally thats BULL!
of course not! if you have no jobs no food and can barely sustain your family that means your poor and if your poor you will NOT! be granted a visa or anything else that may help you immigrate legally!

i would and my parents did! over and over again would i immigrate even if i have to swallow my pride and be attacked constantly...to feed my family and have a better future.

i rest my case...
