Is anyone else getting really fed-up with Illegal Immigrants protesting our Immigration Laws in our country?

Question

...and being called a racist or a nazi if you have a problem with it?

Should I start breaking laws and then protesting the possible enforcement of them? WTF?

listen here, tootsie roll... I wouldn't have any problem with them protesting for their rights in their country, but this is not their country and they do not have the same rights as U.S. citizens in the U.S. It doesn't matter what they do or who's job they are stealing that is the issue. My grandparents were migrant workers, worked for sh*tty pay, but they came here legally... I think the problem is that they feel that they've got the right to protest laws in a country that they snuck into illegally? Do you see the irony?

I'm narrow minded? Did I say one thing about skin color, Jr.? Read thoroughly, buddy... Let's straighten a few things out: you think that I'm uneducated and narrow minded? I am actually well educated and open minded. You're the one who has trouble reading, not I...
I have no problem whatsoever with people wanting to do good thing for themselves (if you read back, I made no mention of this). My problem is that people who are in this country illegally, are protesting our laws. DO YOU UNDERSTAND?

It doesn't matter what they believe in. I don't think that you get it. They're standing up and opposing the immigration laws in a country they they are in illegally. They snuck in here and are now protesting the United States right to enforce its own laws because... Its also funny how so many pro-immigration people are so quick to draw the race card. That's your number one defence, to insinuate that someone is a racist, a bigott, and that they have problems with peole with darker skin than they have. Don't tell me what I believe when you don't know me. Does this mean that we can start choosing which laws to obey and which to break because we believe in something?

Answer 1

They can call me whatever they like but when someone is here illegally it means they're here ILLEGALLY....not legally.


If they want to be here they need to go through the legalization process.

I lay partial (if not full) blame on their government for not making their homeland a place where they want to live and can prosper.




Actually no mkia....I didn't give you a thumbs down, but I will now.

Answer 2

I am native American, It was our country long before it was anybody Else's. Just like the Mexicans we had our country ripped away from us. English was not the first language here, we were forced to learn it. I think if anybody should be complaining about immigrants it should be us. What if Americans had to learn how to speak native American. The illegal immigrant thing is stupid, You all are immigrants to me except for the Mexicans maybe were related more then people might think. It was our country first then the immigrants took over, and killed half our people then stuck us on little plots of land. Maybe history is repeating itself. How would you Americans like it if immigrants came here took over your homes, raped and killed your women. Then stuck you on little reservations and told you this is how its going to be. This country started out as a free country for immigrants, so if it was good enough then. It should be good enough know. We had to deal with so can you. Research has shown that Mexicans make up more of the population then any other ethnic group, so maybe we should be learning Spanish. That's the way it has always been before so why change it. Native Americans had to learn English just because that is what everybody else used, So know you know how we feel. I guess what goes around comes around.

Answer 3

I can't believe I am answering this specially coming from an narrow minded, uneducated, selfish, every thing's been handed to you grand son of an immigrant. If your grand or great grand parents came to this country legally is because the laws were different back then, even though that was the case they struggled just as much and I am sure you were not there to know if they protested something they believed in, witch every one with balls should.
You have the life you have because you were born to it, how lucky can you get. Some people don't have this luxury and they decide to come to this country and make a better life like your grand parents did and mine did also.
I have the life I have now because of what my grand parents believed was worth fighting for.
You wipe your a** with one hand just like every one else, what makes you better then these people who are trying to fight for what they believe in. For every one who says "Go back to your country" typical. Is this your country? And if it is do something good for it, go to Iraq and fight for it, yeah, I didn't think so...
Don't criticize people for trying to do something good for them selves... Just because your skin color is lighter or were born in a certain place doesn't make you better, every race has good people and also losers...
~~~~~-----~~~~~~~---------~~~~~~~
What they are protesting is something they believe in, there is nothing wrong with that... Why get your panties in a bunch. Like I said before what ever my grand parents felt was worth fighting for helped make my life what it is today, whether they were here legally or not. If you are educated like you say you are you should have not problem, what is there to get fed up about? People trying to get a few laws on their side, please...
Who wouldn't want that?

Answer 4

Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
"Keep ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,
Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"



This is written on the Statue of Liberty. America is a country that was formed by Immigrants. People who wanted a better life for thier families. I was born in America so I don't know what it's like to try to become a citizen but I do know that I welcome anyone who wants to be one. Just because something is illegal doesn't mean it's bad. If something bad happened to America and had to sneak into another country inorder to protect my family, I would do it in a heartbeat.

Answer 5

i agree with you
and to the people about the farm workers Americans would do that work we might have to pay more for the food, also those aren't the only jobs illegals work there are many of them in the construction trades taking skilled work from us and lowering the pay scale

Answer 6

i don't know about that but i do feel our government is taking the wrong approach. we are all decendants of immigrants. i feel we need a process to screen them and a time table for them to be productive citizens of the u.s. i can't blame them for wanting out of their dictatorship poverished countries. my grand parents came through ELLIS ISLAND and were documented, i looked it up on Ellis ISLAND .com, it was quite interesting, anyway they worked hard and were successful and respected business people and built the foundation for my generation. fences and deportation does not work. what happened to our statue of liberty with open arms welcoming them, did she fold them when i wasn't looking.

Answer 7

Yes , in the UK we're treated like 2nd class citizens in our own country .

Answer 8

*rolls eyes*

Yes and I'm tired of them hooting and hollering at me when I'm out with my husband and children.

Answer 9

tell me about it

if me and a bunch of my pals were to march down the street waving British and Irish flags, they'd think we were neo-nazis and try to kill us

Answer 10

Yes, I am fed up with it. You will find this very interesting:
