Do you recognize the difference between Illegal Immigration & Legal Immigration?


Additional Details
I do. But so many here on this board keep lumping the two issues together.

Of course I do.

Illegal Aliens = Go home now!

Legal Immigrants = Welcome to America :-)

Mostly, it's the pro-illegals and the open border people who keep doing that.

unfortunately, that's because they don't think there is such a thing as illegal immigration.


Sweet Tea & Lemons
Yes there is a big difference. Many pros like to leave out the word "illegal" so that they can throw out lies and bring in the race card.
Legals= welcome
Illegals = deport


stung4ever
95% of people do.

The pros just like to act like the antis don't to make them look like idiots.

Anyone with a brain understands, clearly thought there are a lot of people here without one. Its so simple, illegal = criminal. Period.

Yes, and if here illegally, it is insulting to immigrants to give them that label. They are illegal aliens, period. Immigrants, by definition, are here legally.

Illegal=bad
legal=good
It's a very simple concept.

The mainstream media seems clueless but the overwhelming majority of Americans support protecting our borders and stopping the flood of illegals into our country. People overseas wait years to come to America and more years to earn US citizenship. I strongly support legal immigration and likewise strongly oppose illegal immigration.

It's a pretty straightforward difference. Legal immigration happens in compliance with the law - laws that, since 1965, have been so permisive, that legal immigrants since 1965 (and thier children) outnumber Americans born since 1965 (and thier kids).

Illegal immigration doesn't even bother to comply to those laws, and happens primarily because all laws passed to stop it are either struck down in the courts or left unenforced.

They keep TRYING to get us to believe they are the same because they want us to be BLIND to the fact that one is ILLEGAL and one is LEGAL. They are night and day.


Your name here, cheap.
I do.


GUARD DOG
Legal = immigrant

Illegal = alien


Lady Freyja
Yes I do
Illegals=get the hell out of our country.
legals=pull up a chair and have a beer.


joeandhisguitar
Yes


Peace
Yep and also recognize the need to control our borders and limits of people entering.

But...I also won't bad talk ANY group of people legal or illegal. Just send the illegals home without bashing their culture.

Yes, illegal immigrants are Illegal. I don't know how many times I need to type it here. They are not welcome.
Legal immigrants are welcome.

Yes, it is very easy.
Illegals have no papers, documents or right to be here. They sponge off of the wealthy and refuse to integrate into society. They make claims that we are racists while at the same time promoting, "La Raza" (the race).

Legals have papers, documents and a right to be here. They come here to work hard and make a better life for themselves. They integrate into society, learn the language and culture. While they do not ever forget where they come from they also never forget why they left.

Never mind don't use the N word, that's not nice. Then you just lower yourself to their level, kmid I thought you were better than that!
I agree with your answer kmid except for that N word just not acceptable.

yes...Legals enter, illegals break-in. I agree though that illegals are not immigrants they are aliens and as such should return to their own planet. People who wish to come to my country to work and pay taxes, to assimilate into my culture and not try to change it are very welcome. All the rest please stay away, thank you!


Ludd Zarko
I do, but for yanks there is no difference. They don't want any more immigrants, legal or illegal

To guard dog:
Of course, the alien should be illegal. After killing all those people in those movies, how can we declare that to be legal ?

If you mean ET, I am not so sure that he should be illegal

Yes, but since so many can't I propose a moratorium on both!

Do people realize the real reasons why they are against illegal immigration and how those reasons may be lessened by racial slurs such as ILLEGAL MEXICAN... ( that is a racial slur beecause last i checked it was not illegal to be mexican...ppl just sterorype and generalize)


oh.....and lets remember that if it werent for "illegal" activity alot of you would be NiGG3RS..... so PLEASE, be aware of WHY you think the way you do...social awareness is a great tool, however if in the arms of the ill-informed, racist ,or poeple who just failed to do the research, its dangerous.


gabrielv
Yes I come here legal, I stayed here 4 years legal and now I'm illegal.
You open the door, so now I'm sorry I'm going to stay here.

Yes I do. Than god you posted a question, it is you that I Wanted to ask, you are anti illegal/legal immigration,?
Well I am a 15 year old American citizen,but racism against illegals just kills me! we are alllll HUMANS so you argue that amensty in 1986 didn't work? well YOUR WRONG! because of that many illegal/legal immigrants are American citizens, or residents. Also Mr. Anti-illegal immigration sorry but have you ever imagined the U.S with out immigrants?
Who will work for cheap labor? who will pick our veggies and fruits? Are you willing to pay $15 for a box of strawberries?
I dont think so because I'm NOT! Many argue that illegals dont pay taxes. but the truth is that they do 75% of them do! AND unlike American citizens they don't get anything in return. REMBER we are all immigrants! with the exception of the American Indians. illegal/illegal immigrants take the jobs that "American citizens/ legal residents" don't want to take because they claim to be too civilized to be picking fruits in the fields in the hot SUN.
Therefore, illegals/legals come to the U.S for better lifes.!
how would you feel if you were an illegal? I'm sure that yoou would immigrate to a foreign country to to live a better life!
thats what illlegals/legals dO!
oo and by the way illegal is against the law while on the other hand legal is following all the laws and regulaitons of the United Stated of America.
illegals immigrate illegally because they ahve not other alternative, they have very if few money. and it is along process to get a visa, so thats why they immigrate illegally, they can't wait for a visa because they need to suceed now..
than you!
hope you understand this 15 year old.!






srry!
but your wrong! amensty in 1986 helped my father thanks to that is now a grateful and proud U.S citizen
