What part of "Illegal" don't I understand?

Citizens have rights--we dont want that (not good for bisiness).

While some laws are necessary and absolute, some are antiquated and need to be rewritten....What I don't understand is, why have a law and refuse to enforce it? And then blame people for breaking such a law? Does that make sense? We cannot have laws, while refusing to enforce them and expect a society to follow these laws..... Slavery was a good example of a law, which was wrong and antiquated......While it was legal to have slaves, and many vigorously opposed to to overturn this law, was it moral?

The U S A immigration laws are very clear. It takes time, waiting in line for your turn. Most don't want to wait, they want what they want and right now. All I've ever said is do it to the letter of the law, and the laws are very clear.

speaking as someone who is not opposed to greater immigration (republicans are much more open than democrats), I think the objection is that people who come here illegally should not be favored simply because they flaunt our laws and thereby do not respect our country.

Trying to KEEP it perfect, I suppose, although I am not one of the people who thinks that at all. I think we have a tyrant for a pres. and a horrible enviornmental policy and no health care and on on on....we are imperialist pigs, so what do you expect?

The thing a lot of people either forget or don't know is that under our present laws, -most- Americans are illegal immigrants! Immigration quotas are only about a century old, and Ellis Island younger still. While I do think that someone who's already committed crimes should be apprehended and turned over to his own country's police, being desperate for a better life for one's self and family should not be considered wrong in itself. And our quotas are unfair--higher for Europeans than for people from African or Hispanic nations.

I don't hate immigration - I HATE ILLEGAL immigration - if you come to this country you should not be allowed to collect any benefits from the gov for at least 5 years. You should not be a burden or sponge - if you don't think it's happening look to the DSHS here in WA State - they give away free food cards for just showing up. Then it costs me as I have to pay being a LEGAL resident....

if this country isn't so perfect, why do the illegals keep coming here, instead of growing some grapes and fighting for their glorious country?

koalatcomics

real simple..because we are a country of laws and to have no process or protection from our borders entry creates chaos...to use deciet to enter this country illegally and then claim ignorance or hardship is ludicrous...if you have trouble apply for asylum like everyone else does.

I'll guess white, upper middle-class, Catholic, democratic American.
It's stupid to support a law that's ridiculous, i.e. stoning women for not wearing their veils. That's why we have ways of changing things DEMOCRATICALLY!
There are a lot of "stupid" people in the penetentiary...

wild4gypsy

You say we think we are the most perfect people in the world. We don't think anything of the kind it is the people who want to come here that say that. They want to come because they think they will become perfect.
Many of the earlier immigrants who came though Ellis lsland thought the USA was lined in Gold also. So there are a lot of people like you that live in the world of Stupid.

FoxAmericaLover!

You people in the USA believe it to be perfect. LMAO, no I don't. But I also don't believe we need illegal aliens either. I could careless if they want a better life, they need to return to their countries and rely on their own governments to provide a living wage. No one asked for criminals to flock to perfect America!

If a law is unjust you should not obey it.

AGAIN, what part of illegal don't you understand?

One Big Daddy

I completely and totally agree with you on the fact that Illegal= criminal. The United States of America welcomes all that wish to go through the"legal" process of being allowed to reside in this great and NOT perfect nation. I just cant understand why you would ask such a rhetorical question. Good luck with that

The immigration laws in the U.S. are very lenient, when you compare them to other countries. Immigration needs to be controlled, it is not selfish of the U.S. citizens to want to control their countries future. We are not trying to block off America to the rest of the world, but just control its population growth, and if you ask me, that is the responsible thing to do.

Ol' Sasquatch

Firstly, The USA IS the most perfect country in the world!!! Where else on Earth do you have the freedom to express you distain, your thoughts, your beliefs??? Nowhere!

Next, the reasons for restricting folk from any other country on Earth are the same as here in the USA! We do not want to import rapists, murders, mother rapists, gangs and morons into our country.

Come here, learn the language and the culture. Pass the test and become an American (US) citizen, and you are welcome to all of the rights allowed here.

Come here as a criminal or as an illegal, and we will deport you to the cesspool you came from!

Just my Humble Opinion,

Peace!

Because it is the law, and any business that hires illegals needs to be fined 1 billion dollars to go towards the final take over of all lands south of Arizona that are rightfully mine.

this is stupid!

So, instead of wasting your time on Yahoo! Answers, why not get out there and get the law changed?
Oh, that's right, you would need to vacate your seat in front of the free library PC, and it may not be there once you get back...
