Should the govt grant illegal immigrants amnesty?

Mr curious

Dunno. Each country is Unique. Spain did this. Spain granted all illegal immigrants at the time legal status. This increased their taxes. But now spain has tough immigration laws. If an illegal immigrant entered spain, there is no way they could ever be made legal. Briatin on the other hand has the weakest immigration. If they gave amnesty, but tighten there immigration it might work.

Here in the UK we should adopt the same ways they do in Oz and put them in camps. This does not affect their human rights as soon as an application has been processed they either enter the country or LEAVE.

never

no; why should the US tax payers work so that a million illegals can get free aid w/o ever making any contributions?????????

No
its been done before in the UK (mid seventies I believe), all it did was legitmise the status of people here illegally, it held out the prospect since then that another amnesty will be granted so encourage further illegal immigrants to stay.

it doesn't achieve anything, it rewards illegal and illict behaviour

it makes a mockery of the immigration process (well what hasn't already been made a mockery by the current governments policies and incompetance that is)

Are you joking?

HELL NO

My?Human?Is?My?Slave

Grant illegal's amnesty? Sure! But why stop there? Let's just open our borders and welcome all their criminals.
There are millions of illegals not paying their fair share of taxes. Filling up hospital emergency rooms (even caused the closing of some hospitals here in L.A.), getting free medical help. Something I can't afford, but can't get for free. You can take the people out of poverty, but you can't take the poverty out of the people. They bring it with them and have turned a once magnificent city into a giant ghetto.

Why do they think they're special? They need to become legal American's just like any other immigrant.

Absolutely NOT. If the illegals want to be citizens, then put them at the end of the PROPER chain of events to obtain that citizenship.
This includes the use of ENGLISH as the standard language in this country, the PAYMENT of taxes, observance of our laws, support of our Constitution, etc etc.
I could agree with allowing them to stay in the country on work visas, so long as they are registered and _tracked_ until citizenship is obtained. NO welfare, educational benefits, etc until that citizenship is obtained.

rewarding crimanality, that sounds just like Bliar!!

kthor

over 11,000,000 illegals in the USA right now...
of that, over 6,500,000 are mexicans..I can't remember the rest of the numbers..but if they are willing to pay heavy IRS penalty for not paying income taxes, yes. they take away Funding for those people who pays income taxes..and now those illegals want us to pay for Financial aid to them too! hell no!

Renegade. AMERICAN NATIVE!

NO AMNESTY!! America has laws to deal with criminals, enforce the laws! Bring these criminals to justice!

scififed

no. it reward people for violating federal laws.

It's the Aliens,, they are sending signals to my brain,, they keep saying "Except them, love them, take care of them, give them all you have."
They really just want the USA to be mired down in the same filth as all the other third world country's which is caused by their ignorant people. They are doing this so we will never be able to expand out into space.
Aliens RULE!!!! Bush is their puppet!!!

Sure. How about we grant them citizenship after they commit their second felony. Then maybe we could grant them the right to cut in line at the store. How about creating a cash incentive program for illegals who drive through "stop signs" and "red lights", it could be like a little bonus. They wouldn't even have to do anything, no waiting, no messy paperwork, we would just give it to them. Better yet, we could grant them complete amnesty from all our laws. Illegals could do what ever they wanted; murder, steal, rape, burn US flags, etc, that way they wouldn't really be breaking our laws.

What else could we do to make things better for illegals? What are they doing to solve any of the problems, that they cause? Nothing. If we are going to grant them anything, it should be 6 months, a year tops, to leave the country on their own. Go back and we will consider letting you come back legally.

No - Illegal means Illegal , they are spreading like a Cancer throughout our country. Find them and Kick them out , NOW . our authorities owe it to the country.

john doe

yes if they serve a four year hitch in the army first

mother knowledge

All illegal immigrants should be sent straight back and their governments should be billed for the inconvenience. But it just doesn't work like that cos our government is a heap of sh*te! Instead we have to foot the cost of having to find them, feed them, pay the legal costs to try to get rid of them, and then the housing bill when they eventually get to stay and get granted a house, the benefits they get (which they don't bl**dy work for). It makes me sick and i could rant all day about foreigners coming over here, sponging off us

Amnesty is the same as inviting millions more illegals to come here. Amnesty has been tried before, and that is what happened.

No they shouldn't, what happens next more illegals come in and they get amnesty. UK is only and island the illegals are trying to do to us what Hitler & Co. failed to do take over our country. I am not rascist as many of my friends from othr races think the same as me.

"Call me Dave"

No
It would create great hardship among lawyers who rely on fees for representing these people to fund their ridiculously lavish lifestyles

bob kerr

No as this sends the wrong message. Others would assume, in the future, that when things got too bad another amnesty would be granted. Economic migrants as I prefer to call them come here because they wish a better life for themselves and their families. I've actually thought of a novel idea that may help the problem.
At present they can live in this country for years before they are detected and when they are they can be held in Immigration Centres, again for years while their case goes through the Appeal process. Instead of this costly procedure why not support them to go on skills courses or even University to give them a means of not only supporting themselves in their home country but to enrich that country. People come here out of hope, they should be helped, they should be given hope and then they can return to their own countries knowing they have something to contribute.
This would probably be cheaper than the system that is in place now and we would be exporting not deporting people who could be nurses, social workers, environmentalists, in fact everything you can think a developing country needs.

Yes once they have been repatriated to their country of origin, they should be given amnesty by there own government
