Do you believe it is unfair to grant rights to illegal immigrants while so many others wait to come to the US

Answer 1

I came from Peru, we (my mother, myself, and siblings,) waiting until my father was able to get visa for us all. We were apart for over a year until we were able to join my father. We follow the law.

I feel no one has the rights to demand a country the they have invaded, to accept them and make them citizens.

The problems with those that are coming here is, they fly their flags in the USA soil, demand services in their language, bad mouth the USA and THREATEN to take over the part of the USA and make it part of Mexico. Many of those from Mexico exploit all the social program the USA have to offer, send millions back to Mexico to buy property, built a home there, while contributing nothing to the USA.

As I see it, no one in its right mind would want people like this to be part of their country. I am sure if it was in reverse and the American was the invaders and did the same things as the Mexican does to the USA, I am positive the Mexican would react the very same way toward the USA, as the USA is reacting toward the Mexican!

Answer 2

Yes, it's unfair. Name five situations that aren't.

I don't understand why Chewbacca would have 4 thumbs down. I may not agree with the conclusions, but this is the most intelligent, articulate, informed answer given to the question so far. A thumbs up for that reason alone.

Answer 3

Oh God Yes!
Answer: In '65, when LBJ and that drunken murderer Ted sold out Ike's program to clear America of illegal criminal invading filth, Educated people that spoke American English were pushed to the back of the line.
Then Mexico declared an invasion on America...With the wishes of L.B.Traitor and his drunken fool Ted, who has proven time and time again, leave the girl in the water and walk ...works!
O,M.G.!Johnson had Kennedy murdered, and covered for Ted's intentional drowning of his mistresses

Answer 4

Why grant any rights? People from lawless countries would be hard-pressed to define such a word. They probably think "rights" means the freedom to moon law-enforcement officers and to machismo-fy all people under their dominion.

Enough is ENOUGH!!!!

Answer 5

Absolutely and it sends the wrong message that if you break the law in the US it's ok, we'll take care of you anyway.
It is rewarding criminal behaviour. Regardless of the reason for breaking the law, it is breaking the law. It's a,i'm speechless... word, that the VA can't even take care of our injured soldiers and our worthless !!!!! government is talking about granting citizenship to a bunch of criminals and giving them healthcare and instate tuition and unemployment, the works, while our heros are going without. Makes me sick. Really, and angry.
Illegals are not helping the economy. That is a fraudelant statement being made by people who have no idea about economy. It's a poor attempt to make light of a dire situation.
It's easy to get illegal immigrants out of the country. Take away their reason for being here, stop hiring them. They will leave voluntarily.

Answer 6

You know, everyone is going to disagree with me, but I think that while it is unfair, it needs to be done under certain circumstances:

1 - The United States beefs up almost ALL border security. The infrastructure to keep future illegal immigrants out of the country needs to be in place before we can actually do so. This means a firm presence along all borders (even to the north, as Canada is becoming a more popular entry for primarily non-Hispanic border crossings) and better port security - particularly close to our borderlines. An added benefit would be that port security would likely begin with screening more than 5% of the incoming boxes (as is the current practice).
2 - Strictly enforce laws focused on punishing employers of illegal immigrants. A few years ago, funding was cut to run a program sponsored by the IRS that checked all Social Security numbers submitted by employers - this program only required ten workers and cost about a million dollars a year. If we punish employers that hire illegal immigrants, the push for illegal immigrants to enter the country will dwindle and entering the country illegally would be less prosperous, and hence, less desirable than entering legally. A nice little benefit would be that people would no longer be able to complain that immigrants are coming into the country and stealing jobs - this would not mean that those jobs would be filled, because in truth, jobs wouldn't be stolen, as most people that use this argument are "above" those types of jobs, and America would actually lose a portion of it's workforce.
3 - The United States needs to make this beefed up border security permanent (or at least to last as long as is necessary to get people to immigrate legally as opposed to illegally).

I know, nearly everyone is about to complain about my initial argument that granting rights to illegal immigrants is necessary, but let's face it - how easy do you think it will be to round up more than 10 million people to ship out of our country? How do you think it could be done, and which government agencies would be responsible for tracking them all down? Who would ship them out, and how would it be done? It is simply more trouble than it is worth to deport all illegal immigrants as opposed to granting immunity to the ones that are already in the country and make it tougher for more to enter.

Answer 7

Yes, Legal-welcome
illegal-go home

Answer 8

Illegal aliens have no rights. Our guaranteed rights apply to citizens and certain categories of non-citizens. Technically we can pick them up in the middle of the night and dump them back over the border without a deportation hearing - believe it or not.

Answer 9

You're darn right, I do.Why should they sneak over and get rich while other people have to spend thousands of dollars doing it the right way,while waiting patiently ? It is so unfair.

Answer 10

Heck yeah it's unfair!
