Do you think America's immigration laws are offensive or mean?

GOPneedsarealconservative

Who cares if someone is offended. We must have law and order. We cannot have people come here from Mexico and other South American countries just because they want to, not pay taxes that legal immigrants and Americans pay, not learn the language, and not assimilate.

We must have standards and enforce them.

hayleylov

no i do not !

jake

Our laws are good, and very fair.

commonsense

If we had immigration laws, there wouldn't be 13-20 million illegals in this country.

samunition

No way!! They are way to lax on these criminals. We should pass legislation calling for mass deportations ASAP.

the laws are not mean or offensive - they are not enforced. In order to maintain our growing greatness we need to control the flow of new arrivals and allow them to assimilate into our culture. Flooding are country has created bi-lingual necessities that just breed hatred and ostracism.

Blue Steel & Lace

Let them be offended, just as long as they leave our country.

cyclops

No they are not, other countries, have laws that are far harsher,
the law in Mexico, against illegals, is severe. We should use the
same standard they use against illegals !

Illegal means against the law. I am oppose anything illegal including illegal immigration. And I am a liberal and proud of it.

fearslady

You mean the ones on the books that no one is bothering to enforce or the actual immigration policies which have left our country open to invasion by God knows who?

joeandhisguitar

America's immigration laws are the most liberal in the world. This should be highly apparent when compared to the immigration laws of it's neighbor to the south (mexico). Being that so many people in the world wish to come to America and all cannot, America has a quota system to ensure the diversity that makes America the envy of the planet. no other country has the diversity that America has.

A law can not be offensive. Only people can be offensive.

The laws have been good enough for the other immigrants who come into the USA. OH, but they are immigrants, meaning they came here LEGALLY. I think the laws should be enforced heavily on the illegal Latino population because they seem to think they are immune to them. They are racists and think they are too good to have to abide by our laws. They think because they are "Latino" they are special, their $h!t don't stink (LOL) and their As$eS are made out of platinum, they can do as they please. They are wrong and they will be deported. Americans are preparing to rise up against them with our own form of justice. They better be prepared for the worst. NO MERCY!!

Ray- Wrong. We reached our 300 millionth PERSON in our total population. Ironically the honor was given to a Mexican-American baby. Immigrants are people who came here from another country. OUR ancestors came here as immigrants and by being BORN here we are not immigrants, we are natural born citizens.

nope

charles o

they are sissy, they cannot even build an effn fence

why not just say "Come on in, we will all learn spanish, educate your kids, give you social services, and the taxpayers will pay for you"

akablackbetty

what laws? i dont think they are doing enough to protect this country.

Daisy

Not at all!

Migra

No!!! What is offensive is that the Border Patrol is not permitted to enforce the laws that are already on the books. Call your congressman and senetars and tell them that you want the existing laws enforced. And while your at it Call the Office of Border Patrol in D.C. and tell Chief David V. Aguilar that you want him to back his people up and allow them to do their jobs. He can be reached at 202-344-2050

I don't know how anyone can find anything offensive about laws that aren't being enforced!

betterdeadthansorry

Well honestly I think the only thing anyone would find annoying is the time it takes to get something done (waiting years before your citizenship or visa to be granted and all...).

But then again laws are not meant to give an EASY or POLITICALLY CORRECT way to something, they are meant to provide an ORDERLY and BALANCED way to that something.

And these people (the supporters of illegals) should also know that ALL countries have immigration laws, and some of them are far more cruel than the Yank's laws (I refer you to a certain country south of the US border).

Erika H

Certainly not. Have you read those of Mexico? They're harsh!

dosmachetes

They have historical been very racial prejudicial and have reflected a part of the American populations racial hatreds and discrimination toward certain groups.

WHITE GIRL

Yeah I'm with akablackbetty on this one. What laws?

Princess_29_71

No, neither since they are rarely, if ever enforced. That would make them more of a joke, right? Or could we put that label on the government?

ray

According to the US Census Bureau on October 17 the United States reach 300 Million IMMIGRANTS
Yes lelani and the people you are calling Latino are native American we are descendant of Aztec, Maya, Inca etc. we did not come in no PINTA, NINA, SANTA MARIA OR MAYFLOWER
You came to us not us to you thank you
The problem is is the you see the Mexican peasant as immigrant and they they see them self as native they been traveling this land from north to south way before European had the notion that the world was round and is funny every time poor people stand up for there rights all you can do is call them communist,
I thought expressing your opinion was more Democratic than
communist.

America's immigration laws are strict usually unfavorable to illegal immgrants and visa applicants.

REnate

I live in Texas. Half the people here originally came as illegals. I don't understand all the sudden furor over immigration unless it was a smoke screen thrown up by the current administration to take people's minds off the war in Iraq.

Bush is the worst for kissing the Mexican's bottoms because he knows the economy of Texas would fail if they deported all the low payed illegals back to country of origin.

I know plenty of illegals and they are better citizens than most of the US citizens I know. I think they need another amnesty and then tighten up the border control but a fence is going to do NOTHING and cost a lot of money. They need more border agents.

Luis
