Protesting Immigrants?
|
Does anyone else find it incredibly rude & offensive that immigrants(especially illegal ones) are planning this march/protest in response to any immigration reform? Additional Details Oh to Psi chi down there. I said all illegal immigrants not specifically mexican so you can take your attitude caused by someone else off my question. I'm not hating I'm asking a question-and if you dont like it then dont answer!

Every person for illegal immigration should be forced to compensate these innocent people who have had their social security numbers and identities stolen by these illegals who invade our country with no care who they hurt. They should have to not only compensate the money lost from their social security accounts after they are zeroed out once the fraud is detected, but every last cent the victims had to pay taking time off work, every cent that went into photocopying documentation, every cent that went towards lawyers and gas driving somewhere to get this mess taken care of, and any other financial expenditure the victim had to cough up. They should also be forced to compensate the victims for the emotional hardships endured. They should have to compensate for the money and time spent trying to straighten out their credit ratings after these illegals have ruined them. They should be forced to compensate these victims for every single hardship related to what these illegals have inflicted upon these people. Currently, the system does not provide any compensation at all and a lot of people are never restored to previctimization status. Oh but these pro-illegals claim that illegal immigration is a victimless crime that hurts no one and that we are whining when we complain.
'Total purgatory' for taxpayers
Frustration can mount for victims of this kind of fraud. Eventually, the government agencies involved do catch up with the legitimate consumers; but often, not until they are looking for money. Victims can have trouble getting disability or unemployment benefits. The government doesn’t try to alert victims of their victimizations, they usually find out by chance when they’ve been victimized further.
Other victims find the Internal Revenue Service on their backs, looking for payment of back taxes for wages earned by their imposters. Some see refunds held up by the confusion; others see their wages garnished.
Victims find themselves in a financial nightmare. All those imitators make a mess out of their work histories, Social Security benefits records and credit reports. Victims are haunted by bills and creditors. Victims receive threatening letters from the IRS, asking to pay taxes on money earned by these illegal Mexican colonizers. Victims are told to re-pay unemployment benefits they had received, after the government discovers they were "working" while drawing benefits when it was really these illegal Mexican invaders all along.

You think these illegals care that they are hurting innocent lives? Their loyalty is to Mexico. They proved that during one of the first rallies when they took down the American flag, hung up the Mexican flag, and then hung the American flag upside down underneath it. THAT is how they feel about America.

Then the people who want to appease them pull out the excuses about how people who are not even alive now, and haven't been for hundreds of years, 'stole' the land from the American Indians. Even American politicians are carrying out this traitorous attack on our sovereignty! If this keeps up, the United States of America will become a 3rd world country, just like Mexico! Mexico's problems are not the fault of Americans, but they are becoming our problems because the Mexicans are invading us and bringing their problems with them.
The illegals make up about 5 % of the work force. The unemployment rate is about 4.5%. Keep in mind that the unemployment rate does NOT represent everyone who is unemployed. It only counts those who are collecting unemployment. Everyone else's plight is ignored. The unemployment rate if everyone was counted would be tremendous. We do NOT have a shortage of labor, we have a large surplus. The more illegals that come in and take our jobs at minimum wage or less (often less) puts more and more Americans out of a job. Most of these Americans are never counted in the unemployment rate if they do not manage to get unemployment benefits. Unemployment benefits are hard to receive.
Illegals draw welfare by stealing people's social security numbers and identities. That means there are a lot of people being directly hurt by these people as well. Innocent people are having their credit ratings ruined, having IRS problems, and social security problems. If someone who has had their social security number stolen gets married, if either spouse dies or become disabled then they can be denied their benefits.
The illegals get welfare by stealing social security numbers and identities and using false papers. Therefore, the time limits under the Clinton welfare reform doesn't apply to them because once the time limit is up, all they have to do is get new stolen social security numbers and identities and false papers and start all over again. American citizens who draw welfare are limited to the time limits from the welfare reform and are then cut off. American citizens who fall on hard times and have to turn to welfare assistance have a harder time finding jobs that pay enough to live off of because the illegals have taken jobs and depressed the wages of those jobs still available to American citizens. Therefore, those in the lower working class are highly unlikely to ever be able to "work their way up" since the opportunities have been stolen which will entrap these people into poverty with little to no way out.
My family moved to the US before WWII. Those of my family that didn't make it over got killed by the death camps. Our family assimilated to the American culture. We didn't expect the Americans to change to suit us. The illegal immigrants from Mexico are not civilized like that.
They not only changed the National Anthem to Spanish, they changed the words. They already burn our flag and hang our flag upside down. They waved the Mexican flag during a lot of their protests. Some schools have stopped hanging the American flag and forbidden students from wearing clothes with any part of the American flag on their clothing all to keep from offending the Mexicans. It's nothing short of an attack of our country, not only by the illegal aliens, but those who seek to appease them.
I am tired of the stereotype that Americans wouldn't do the work that illegals do. Illegals do all kinds of jobs for less than minimum wage which drives the wages down for U.S. citizens. Construction jobs are an example. There are lots of illegals doing construction jobs that Americans used to do because the companies can keep more of the profits if they pay less for the workers. All that does is make companies wealthier and Americans poorer. Illegals are stealing jobs that Americans have done for years.
"Mexico is waging war on the U.S. through mass immigration illegal and legal, through the assertion of Mexican national claims over the U.S., and through the subversion of its laws and sovereignty, all having the common end of bringing the southwestern part of the U.S. under the control of the expanding Mexican nation, and of increasing Mexico’s political and cultural influence over the U.S. as a whole.
Cultural imperialism
We experience Mexico’s assault on our country incrementally—as a series of mini-crises, each of which calls forth ever-renewed debates and perhaps some tiny change of policy. Because it has been with us so long and has become part of the cultural and political air we breathe, it is hard for us to see the deep logic behind our “immigration problem.” Focused as we are on border incursions, border enforcement, illegal alien crime, guest worker proposals, changes of government in Mexico City, and other such transient problems and events—all of them framed by the media’s obfuscation of whether or not illegal immigration’s costs outweigh its benefits and by the maudlin script of “immigrant rights”—we don’t get the Big Picture: that the Mexican government is promoting and carrying out an attack on the United States.
Another reason we miss what’s happening is that our focus is on the immigrants as individuals. Thus our leaders talk about illegal immigrants as “good dads,” “hard working folks” seeking to better their lives and their family’s prospects. In fact, this is not about individual immigrants and their families, legal or illegal. It is about a great national migration, a nation of people moving into our nation’s land, in order to reproduce on it their own nation and people and push ours aside.
Thus, in orchestrating this war on America, the Mexican state is representing the desires of the Mexican people as a whole.
What are these desires?
(1) Political revanchism—to regain control of the territories Mexico lost to the U.S. in 1848, thus avenging themselves for the humiliations they feel they have suffered at our hands for the last century and a half;
(2) Cultural imperialism—to expand the Mexican culture and the Spanish language into North America; and especially
(3) Economic parasitism—to maintain and increase the flow of billions of dollars that Mexicans in the U.S. send back to their relatives at home every year, a major factor keeping the chronically troubled Mexican economy afloat and the corrupt Mexican political system cocooned in its status quo. "

Yes I do. First they replaced our May Day festivities with Cinco de Mayo parties 5 days later. Now they are taking over the actual date and making it a national day of protesting Americans and Americanism and the law and whatever else they want to whine about and insist on. |

It is a slap in the face for them to demand rights. They have no rights. They are illegally here. They already get more freebies than they should.
All they deserve is a one-way ticket home. |

If your not a US citizen, i believe you have no right to get on our streets and demand rights?
Go back home and change your own country... |

Yes because they are showing they support those that break the law. I remember last time they did this they showed the illegal immigrants on the news talking about it. They are breaking the law being here. What is so hard to understand about that?
Also, border crackdowns, and deportation of illegals refer to ALL illegals. |

If the USA wasn't so scared of political correctness, there would be 20,000 real Americans there with baseball bats, guns and clubs to give them a taste of justice. |

They should all be rounded up when they do that, their status checked, and if they are here illegally, they should be deported.
But the liberals and the ACLU would never let that happen. |

I consider it extremely offensive & can't wait until the &%i^ hits the fan for all of them. They underestemate people of the United States. I truly believe that this fight will bring all groups of American citizens together as one to fight for "our" rights as LEGAL citizens. |

Extremely!
Theodore Roosevelt's ideas on Immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907.
"In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person's becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American...There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American , but something else also, isn't an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language... and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is
a loyalty to the American people."
Theodore Roosevelt 1907 |

It is very RUDE and OFFENSIVE!! How dare they come ere illegally and demand rights in OUR country.
The only positive I find with them marching in our streets waving their flags, it that it is awaking the great American giant. The citizen of America will get a wake up call tomorrow wen they once again see these thugs marching in our streets. |

Hey Moe

I find it offensive when they wave foreign flags in protest marches and turn the American flag upside down I have even seen them stomp on it at protests, I believe if you want to become an American you should respect America, a lot of very good men gave their lives for this country and our flag is symbolic of there sacrifice so we may have freedom even the freedom for non-citizens to protest I believe it is disgraceful for them to do such a thing and a dishonor to the men who gave their lives so we could have freedom to speak out |

i think it's totally disgusting that these criminals are allowed to say or do anything, i think ICE should just round them all up and toss them back over the borders, any of them want to fight, shoot them. i doubt if they would fight, that's why they run here!!!! |

Actually, I do. Last year they were misled, but by this year, don't you figure they would know better?
I'll get over it, I'm sure, but I am pissed. |

I think it's a great opportunity to find a load of illegals and deport them. I think they are doing the immigration department a favor by lining up in a row waiting to be found out, saving the tax payers lots of money in several ways.
Hey, if legal immigrants and citizens think that the immigration laws need to be reformed, that's their perogative, but I would love to see them try to get into any other country, legally, as easy as it is to get into the US. Certain countries require you to have a certain amount of education, work experience, and money in the bank on top of fees for the immigration process and years of proving yourself. All that we ask is fees for the immigraion process, be here for a couple of years and learn the history. |

No my dear it is not rude at all. As the matter of the fact the
way that they are being treated is very rude and unfair.
Remember that California, Texas (May be More) used 2 B
their land.If U live or have visited this 2 great states U'll NO.
Just by looking at the names of cities and so on.

First off you don't know the status of everybody that will be marching so you have no room to speculate as to the percentage of illegal to legal immigrants. Immigrants have a right to have their voices heard just like anybody else here. Even all the xenophobe racists that seem to flock to YA can march for reform if they had the guts to show their faces in public rather than slander people from behind a computer. What I find rude and offensive are the people that think they're better than immigrants when immigrants founded this country. They do the work that you won't do for the wages that you won't work for. I am against illegal immigration, but most of you will assume somebody is illegal just because they are brown. Nobody got the American Indians' permission to live here so I guess you better move back to Europe, whitey. |
