Illegal Aliens (( YOUR OPINION))?

Slide 306

Finally someone I agree with
Yeah, I believe that people from Mexico and Latin America ought to be able to enjoy the same benefits and luxury of living in America, they do not deserve worse just because the had the bad fortune of being born in a poor country
And yes, if they are citizens, of course they should have to pay the same amount as everyone else.

Man I'm Pretty.

I think they should not be here

The history of the U.S. is not a bunch of disrespectful law breakers who don't care about the nation.

If illegals were good for the U.S., they wouldn't call them illegal.
If breaking the law to get a better life was a respectable thing to do, everyone would do it. But as we all know, only criminals and the lazy break the law to get a better life.

WAITING to become a citizen of any country is lesson 1 on your way to becoming a "law abiding" citizen. America's immigration laws say you must be sponsored by an American citizen. During your wait, your sponsor is supposed to help you learn English, understand our culture, get a job, AND teach you the history of how this country came to be. The word in the Bill of Rights and the Preamble are profound, and powerful. ALOT of blood has been shed for us to enjoy the freedom and rights we have. Understanding the history of this country goes a long way toward helping immigrants understand what it means to be an American. If I had my way, if anybody (18 or more) wants to be fastracked to becoming an American citizen, they should have to join the military. Freedom is worth fighting and dying for, be it our own or our allies. THAT'S WHAT IT MEANS TO BE AN AMERICAN.

Look the problem with illegal aliens is that they are coming by the millions, uncontrolled. If the coming to our country was legal and with controls the majority of us Americans wouldn't mind. But been invaded, coming here illegally and then act like they deserve like they are in the right, parading in our city streets flying their flag, being disrespect to our American flag, robbing our ID's, refusing to speak English, invading out schools and health clinics, etc. and then you asked me what I think about illegal immigration. Well, do you think this is not enough to be against it?? You tell me!!

From your limited understanding of how and why the world has borders, I'm guessing you are very young and have not had the pleasure of trying to raise a family whilst being asked to take a good portion of your hard earned money to support illegal immigrants.
In fact could I assume that you either have illegal parents, siblings, a spouse, BF or GF who is illegal?
It is unreasonable to expect any country to tolerate millions of illegal criminals without fighting back.

Your view of the world is called Utopia based on writings from the 1600's the book is found in the FICTION section of your local library

I'm trying to move TO the US legally! And yes..the wait is a little harsh: 18 months for myself and my 3 children, under 18 to join my husband of 9 yrs who is a US citizen. My 21 yr old daughter?? Minimum of SIX YEARS and she's still in school and a dependant!

As far as social services from the US govt? My husband (my sponsor) and my in-laws (co-sponsors) have to sign paperwork stating that myself nor my children can receive govt assistance without THEM having to pay the govt back. How illegals get benefits when legals aren't entitled to them? I'm not quite sure.

I'm always on this immigration answer site to gather information and I'm shocked at how many Americans HATE the thought of immigration. I mean...I'm Canadian. I'm on your OTHER border where there is no word (yet) about building a wall. But I always feel like crap about wanting to move to the US and becoming a US citizen as opposed to moving my US citizen to Canada.

In our case? His family is all in Michigan. I have no other family but him. It makes sense for us to make the move to Michigan as opposed to him moving permanently to Canada. I apologize in advance to all who hate the thought of diversity.

I think you should become citizen before they get the privelleges

Build the fence and kick out the illegal alien invaders. The illegals come here to steal jobs, healthcare, food stamps, free housing, free education, etc. They need to go home. No anchor babies either. I don't really care if they happened to be born in a poor country, if we allow them to continue flooding across the border, soon the U.S. will be dragged down to a third world country just like Mexico.

i think they should not be here, and are taking advantage of our hospitality. in mexico, in order to be a resident you have to be able to speak the national language, pass certain tests, and other various things. we have no such rules, but i think we should. if we adopted all of mexicos immigration laws, i think there would be far less illegal aliens... and i also agree that the free health care and such is completely unnecessary...

Guinevere

I dont mind putting a roof over anyones head and putting food in their empty, but it taking the p**s a bit, when they dont ask if they can come in, and when they get here they want not just basics but luxury at OUR expense.
Send them back, please.

Illegals can go back to their OWN COUNTRIES. Illegals should work in their OWN COUNTRIES. Illegals should be fighting to make THEIR OWN COUNTRIES LIVABLE, period. By being in our Country illegally, they have in fact BROKEN OUR LAWS. They have zero rights in this Country since they are NOT CITIZENS. All countries have their own immigration laws. I suggest those who come here, abide our laws, immigrate in a legal fashion, and REALLY TRULY WANT TO BECOME A CITIZEN OF THIS COUNTRY.

the main culprit is our government that have allowed the illegal immigration grow out of control, and offering benefits to people that shouldn't be here. Secondly illegal immigrants may be uneducated but they are not stupid, and know of a good thing when they see it.When they cross the border illegally , when they use or steal SS # or identities they know
that they are exposed to get caught one day.and be deporded Irresponsably, buy houses , buy cars ,have children that cannot support, knowing that the more children they have, receive more benefits from this moronic government.Now, they feel enttitled to everything and they DEMAND it , as it happened on this unfortunate marches
I say the government has to solve this problem 1) by deporting all criminals and 2) by attrition. If they are unable to work and get such generous benefits, they will have ti return home on their own, as is beginning to happen now.
One last thing, the unscroulous employers should get astronomic fines and some time in prison

Illegal aliens are a drain on the USA.

In California they cost the state about $10 BILLION a year in medical care and schooling.

They cost the USA $2,700 per year per illegal family. Not so much because they are illegal, but because 2/3rds of them do not even have a high school education. As a result, they are poorer than puppies and get welfare and other forms of aid, not to mention the taxes they do not pay. If we made them legal, the cost to the USA would go over $9000 per year per family because they would still be poorly educated and not contributing enough taxes.

If their kids would do great in school so we would not have them as a drain on the USA, I might be OK with the whole illegal issue. However, close to 50% of all Hispanics do not finish high school. That means rather than lifting themselves up like all other immigrant groups have done, they will remain at the bottom and continue to require welfare.

Perhaps if the kids would show us they have the American dream of doing better than their parents, rather than the South of the Border dream of being poor, I might be more open to them coming here illegally.

Problem is as you can see, many immigrants and illegals supporters think they are "entitled" to be in the U.S., most are Mexican too who think that.

What about the people who don't border the U.S., should be boat them over so they can illegal immigrate too, it's not fair to them.

I see a lot of people say illegal pay taxes, an illegal with 5 kids, if he/she pays taxes at all, is only taxed VERY little. They will always take way more than they give. We all know the type of person who supports illegals is uneducated, that's just the way it is. Maybe when they get older and more educated, they will see the true impact of illegal unlawful invasion.

I've already had an account suspended for telling someone else what I think they should do to illegals.

Back by popular demand!

I think they should all be deported,anchor babies too.

The long wait is because of the illegal immigrants that are here. So all of you that think it is harsh thank those who disobeyed the law. When people come here legally, they are suppose to show that they have enough money to support themselves or an affidavit of support. They sign a "contract" with the government saying they wont use government help. So, I agree that people should be able to live where they want to as long as they obey the law and come here the right way.

I don't know..this is what I think... I agree that we should have stronger borders, and that all immigration should be done the legal and right way. But how about those who are already here? There are 12 million people, and how the heck are you going to kick all of them out?
Of course there are those who come here to cause trouble, and contribute nothing to this country, but you can't judge everyone by the actions of a few. There are many kids who came here when they were just a couple of months old. I think those are the people who are most deserving. Those who are here to work and be productive. Those who will actually learn english and assimilate with our culture. Those who pay taxes (by the way, you don't need a social security number to pay taxes, the IRS gives them a taxpayer id number). Most of these illegal immigrants pay taxes out of fear of tax evasion charges. I say, if they have a criminal record, then don't give them the chance of a path to citizenship. But those who have a clean record and are either in school, or being a productive member of our society, why not give them an opportunity?

By the way, while crossing the border undocumented is a crime, but why make the kids pay for the actions of their parents?

As far as I'm concerned illegals should be "taken care of" in any way necessary.

madison pwns your mom! ;D

Exactly! :)
It's cruel, but that's the kind of world we live in.
How the **** do you know what some dude in the sky that doesn't exist wants for Earth? Wow. Don't talk like you do know.

Truth Speaker (Anti-Jonas)

i think its america and it should be available to the people who are trying to live better lives, i think they should kick out all the drug dealers and murderers but people only come to live a better life, im sure many of these people are thinking when you ask this just "mexicans" but people from china, africa, canada, those are all illegal people to i dont think they should be as strict as they are this is supposed to be a "free country" uhh not so much from whats going on..i didnt realize how many racist people there was on here

89278

ET wanted to go home, you know that. Superman sneaked like a legal with his adoptive parents. Starman, I think he also wanted to return. The Alien devoured people, bad

Come If You Must

**** you Danie the Werewolf (Team Jacob), that's totally uncool. They are also people and they should be wherever they want to!

Being in this country illegally is a civil offense. It doesn't help matters any to call all illegal aliens criminals - some are and most, I believe, are not.

I know that having a sponsor is one way for a person from another country to enter the US. But I think there are also annual lotteries for green cards for persons from certain countries e.g Ukraine, Poland.

I believe our Federal Government has failed to put a comprehensive immigration policy in place. It does no good to let people come into the US for many years and then decide they can't stay anymore. We should all be lobbying our congress to address the issue of protecting our borders from hordes of people who would like to be here along with having a plan to fairly treat the people we have allowed to come in and work here for years.

If an apartment building has a "no pets" policy but fails to enforce it, it gives up its right to have such a policy and may not decide to enforce it without taking into account the persons it has allowed to live there with their pets. I think we have an obligation to do at least as much for the immigrants.

Question Everything

It makes sense to me. I know many won't agree, but I don't see dirt, grass and such as major things to fight over and kill for. I wish people could just live where they wanted and all be treated the same and fairly.
