How do you think the U.S. should handle the illegal immigration problem?

dipstick

Enforce the current laws.

Dirty Martini

DEPORT, Deport, deport.

Clark Kent

I think that they should all be put on a bus and took back over the boarder. Because if you arrest them put them in prison they become a liability.
But your new presidential hopeful wants to give them free health care and a place to stay on your tax dollars.

Crack down on companies that hire illegals and include individuals that hire them for services such as maids, lawn work and handy man work. If there are no jobs for illegals, then they won't come to the country illegally.

If illegals think it's so bad in their own country, revolt and make their country what America is.

We are enforcing the new immigration law. I think that what we are doing is excellent. Why change anything until we see how this law is working?

happygael

Illegals should be deported. if they reenter they should be jailed and made to do hard labor

First close the dam border then pack um up and send them back, they did it in the fifties they can do it again. It was call operation w*tback, in the fifties.

most of the illegals and immigrants from Mexico are highly racist to the point of being the most racist people in the U.S. today, I say close the borders until they can grow up and stop being so racist.

The US wears blinders when it comes to illegal immigration. If the US wanted to, it would have curbed illegal immigration a long time ago.

PS.....for the person who read that by the year 2016 that 1 in 3 persons living in the US would be Mexican; please learn the difference between Hispanic and Mexican. By 2016, 1 in 3 persons living in the US will be "Hispanic", not Mexican.

FYI....Hispanics are persons who are from countries that speak spanish, and Mexico is just one of several.

moofah boom boom

Insist they leave in 30 days if not they should be rounded up and turned into biofuel for our vehicles

Brendon Urie <3ER

Craig's response succinctly says it all. Any other response is merely verbiage...................

Close our southern border completely, let them get in line line everyone else wants to immigrate. You should need a sponsor to get into the country, and will need to check in monthly electronically with a tamper proof card. If you don't check or disappear your sponsor will take up residency in cell until you are found. As for jails, any illegal felon should be immediately deported to a jail in their home country. Even if we pay for their housing at the home country I am sure it would be cheaper in a 3RD world country versus our expensive system and not as cozy. Multiply that by a few million criminals, quite a bit of taxpayer money to house and feed them in the US. When your time is up on the Visa renew it legally or go home, enforce the laws on the books and no tax dollars to cities who knowingly harbor illegal immigrants.

bittermeds

A double fence several hundred yards apart, electronically surveillance, homeland security and coast gaurd or other military (gee- where are they now?) surveillance until the problem subsides sufficiently. Make employers accountable-for once! And the problem would all but disappear. I mean if at least some of them had advanced degrees I could understand but the last thing we need are uneducated masses unwilling to learn our language while far more likely to create criminal and gang violence!

Republicans wear flip-flops

The government has failed miserably and betrayed the American public with this issue. All illegals, no matter what country they are from should be immediately deported and Americans need to say so with a louder voice.

Kabu

Deport all illegals. Let in immigrants who are hardworking. Then, give everyone who is here legally an id card.

vlee1415

Just give them work visas to do jobs that no Americans want, like picking crops in a field.

lil wade

one of the main reason people like to come into the country illegally is because the process takes up to like 5yrs..teach the fit ones english and if the want to become a citizen they should have to serve at least four years in the military as infantry

Missi pryanka

they shud be welcome to visit but not to live

biscottiiii

Well i wouldn't call it a problem, but i think we should have more security around the boarder.

airjordanx510x

Let them have their cake.

My intelligence > yours

Set up motion sensors that automatically deploy hydrogen bombs when set off.

Ignore it? The world is for all of us? Sure, but you need to respect international borders. Apparently you're not very familiar with government?

Why don't you ship out to make some room.

Der Schreckliche

With logic and compassion. Two elements that don't exist in the usa

prettyleah15

i think they should let all the mexicans there is in to america we just do the opposite of what bush is doing he wants to build a wall we do the opposite and don't

gonna serve you at mcdonalds
huh...
this land was mexicans second first it was the native americans so
white people aint got no room to speak

ima_super_geek

I say offer Mexico statehood. It would be a huge boost to their economy, provide the opportunity to clean up corruption (not that the US is perfect, but our corruption is much less severe), add a huge legal labor pool, make it less attractive for companies to leave the country... Too bad they wouldn't go for it, we need fresh blood.

Napoleon

Why not just let them be here.
Why did people from Europe got to be here but they can't?The immigration help The economy as well make the country stronger.They pay taxe but can't get them back.Why can people understand that people are just coming for a better life.

Some racist groups want to report them for some reasons others just think they take alway jobs or don't pay taxe but those are just mythes.

everybody payes taxes no matter who you are.And they don't take jobs alway first come firs serve.

And it doesn't matter who will be the majority in the future.Were still all people.Look at dogs there many differnt types of breeds but they don't care.

The Last Master

Ignore it...

...the world belongs to all of us, although I do like my job :|
