My ancestors made this country great the legal way? They came here legally?

There is room for more people, but the point is this, these illegal immigrants are different from any in any other time period in America. They aren't interested in becoming Americans, they swear allegiance to their previous country while expecting a hand out. You can't have it both ways. Previous generations of American emigrants kept their culture, but did not spit in the face of the American flag. They embraced it. You can't wave 2 flags, it's one of the other. We have room for more Americans not for illegal immigrants who wave another flag while stomping on ours.

Is it fair to those who are waiting to come here legally? I think not.
You can not blame the people today for the sins of their Fathers. And two wrongs don't make a right.

Illegal is illegal, period!

It was a whole different world back then, you have to understand the planet is full of people now. Immigration is the least of your worries. Survival of the Species is more of a concern. Did you know a 20 mile ice shelf broke off from in the Canadian Arctic the other day? This is something you should worry about much more then taco eaters.

(It's "Who "did" they get....not, "Who do they "got"..)

The Native American's were taken over by the Europeans at a time when there were no laws on illegal immigration. That was history, today we have laws against entering our country illegally. Come legally or don't come at all.

Buh-bye

You preach too much hate against Americans, come up with something new to whine about.

Native American here.......
Note the name AMERICAN
There is no other country's name in front of it. My NA ancestors fought for this land, and lost. I have ancestors who later fought for this land as soldiers in every war since, on this soil and foreign soil. They fought and died to give us this country, with our rights and freedoms, and I'll be D@mmed if I'll stand by and let ILLEGAL invaders tear apart what they fought to preserve.

Go ahead, leave!! Close the door on your way out!!

loretta

in the beginning the natives welcomed them. they payed to come here. it is the french who came over trying to do things different and turned everyone agents each other back then. and I'm happy you are legal. that makes you an American, stick up for your country then and not the illegals. happy new year my fellow American?

I'm American Indian...so send all of them home...!

Me...Cat Tyson??

Oh cry me a river.

Exactly!! I'm sure the Native Americans didn't want illegal immigrants on their land.

Actually some Native American tribes actually not only supported but fought on the side of the 'white man' against other native americans. Expanding on that.. it ended up in a war woodlande.

And matter of fact, there was a mexican-american war also wasnt there. And Mexico lost that war and land changed hands.
The fact that the USA has been might kind to people of other countries is heavily being taken advantage of.

In just about any other country in the world illegals that largely have been left alone, would either be beaten and deported, jailed for a long period of time or just plain shot. ( what does Mexico do to border jumpers there... you know what they do )

If someone breaks into your house, helps themselves to the food, sleeps in your bed, but then cleans out your garage are you going to say.. hey what a great contributor to my welfare??

Your obviously repeated attempts to legitimize illegal immigration are weak at best.

You're right, they just came and took what they wanted, and they wanted the whole thing. By the way, they did not learn the language either.

I'm Mexican, and If I Would like to Go to USA, The Only Authority I Should Ask for Permission to Go There are Native Americans.

I Went to LÂ·A in 1994, I'm not Allowed to Go Back Since 1999, My Father is Mexican but He's also an American Citizen, I'm 26 Now, I Need to Get Back to LÂ·A and I'm Only Wasting My Time and Youth in Mexico.

Actually.. The native Americans DID give their permission and welcomed the settlers (the reason for the thanksgiving celebration).

It wasn't until much later that the government actually took the land from the Indians and stuck them on reservations! And eventually this country made things right with the Indians and gave their land back to them plus lotsa $$.

My ancestors did NOT come from the original pilgrims that settled here, that was the Spanish and English by the way..

My family immigrated here from Germany and Russia, and Quebec Canada, through Ellis island.

Nice thought ,but its just yours ,native Americans donot want illegals here,Americans,are Americans dont matter if they are black,white or bronze,we dont want illegals,Americans came here for a better life and they earned the right,if you cant earn the right then go back where you came from,simple as that.

Yukaza

There weren't any Americans here when the Pilgrims came.This is almost too silly to answer.I know you are smarter than this question.You know the answer to this .I'm surprised you would ask something this childish and so easy to dispel.I'm not gong to go into all the facts and history that you seem to have forgotten.
But we both know you are totally wrong.I'm very surprised .

sexy prawn

absolutley the only reason why the governments make a big issue about imigration is because they want to track people around the world for control, however having said that many imagrants do not pay taxes why shouldnt they!!!

purplepartygirrl

I could care LESS if my ancestors came over here legally or not, the bottom line is they worked their asses off, and made this country better than it was before they got here.

I don't own this land, but if I did, I'd be happy to invite EVERYONE over that was willing to work their *** off, and let everyone else know that they could go to hell!!!!
