Would you care if the thousands of Mexican migrants came here legally?

Problem Child

No problem at all. We would only have thousands, as the millions we have would not have been allowed. This is a country of immigrants and a country of laws. The pro-illegal groups have made this about race. To most americans, its all about breaking the law. We see these people as taking advantage of us, showing disrespect by violating our laws and then demanding things and calling people racists who merely say, do it legally.
Even legal hispanics are mostly against illegal aliens. They feel cheated. They waited years, paid thousands and did it right, while millions of others just did whatever they wanted. How is that fair?

No as long as it doesnt exceed our need for them.

If they come here legally then I welcome them, But that being said there has to be limits on how many come here from any place as there are econonic limits on how many immigrants any country can take in at a given time.

Ms.L.A.

If they are legal, they are welcome.That's the whole issue!

Dirty Martini

Legal good. Illegal bad.

Why don't you folks BELIEVE that? What proof do you think you need, HHHMMMM????

I'm so tired of this veiled and blatent racism accusation.

GET OVER IT.

Babe

legally is okay. The good thing is that we have limits on the number of a particular group we let in to keep a balance. And I think Mexico has reached their limit and then some.

As long as the speak the language, work and don't just ride the food stamps

I mostly work with Mexicans and sorry to say this but most do NOT work hard and hide behind the whole "me no understandy"

Legal is fine, illegal isn't. It's when people come here and benefit while putting tax paying citizens out of jobs as well as using our resources from these tax dollars that is wrong.

I seriously wouldn't care a bit if Mexicans or any other people decided to come into the US legally. I'm very liberal on legal immigration but I'm very conservative on illegal immigration. I have nothing about any race or country, I'm too smart to fall in that simple nonsense. Legal immigration= COOL, illegal immigration= NOT COOL. The US was founded on legal immigration, getting rid of legal immigration would kill a part of our customs. Thanks and take care!

Legal? No. ILLEGIAL? Now that's when I care.

Thats just a common sense question. If I stole your car would you care. Hell yeah! Why? Cuz its illegal and you worked so hard to get it and why should someone be able to come in and benefit from your hard work.
Thats is just an example of any illegal immigrant any race coming over here tax free and receiving grants.

Razor Jim

Legal is the only way they can be considered immigrants. The current way just makes them crimminals. We already have enough of those

Stephen K

1) I am against illegal immigrants from ANY nation, as they are ILLEGAL (notice that?)

2) If you come here legally, no problem. Welcome, as you are following the laws.

Zeta Reticuli

I'd have no problem with that because ICE would set quotas, just as was done back at the turn of the previous century when so many Europeans came to our shores.

GUARD DOG

Yes I would care.....thousands of Mexicans on top of the millions that are already here is TOO DAMN MANY........Mexicans have flat wore out their welcome here.

fungirl

legally is fine just please have birth control and make sure you all speak English...I can't stand Spanish

gurria_rulz

no, i wouldn't care

Every since this nation was established, people have been entering legally. My dead ancestors did it the right way. Why should we now make an exception? Laws regardless of political convenience should be enforced until the courts say they are unconstitutional. Which is happening more often than it should.

C-Town Dawgs

No, it is the fact that they think that they are better than the other thousands of people that are doing it the right way. We need to also know to the best ability if they were criminals in their own country. I think we need to streamline the process of granting citizenship or green cards. I think this would help ease the pain of illegal immigration.

Joan J

No I would not mind. The proper way is the only way, at least we would be able to account for how many enter this country and when to halt immigration without causing hardship upon our country.

DJH

If they were legal I would have nor problem

but NO ^&$&^#! AMNESTY!!!!!!

wyomugs

They do now... it's the MILLIONS that come here ILLEGALLY that are the problem. And this IS my "same mind set."

Everyone is entitled to my opinion.

so long as all the ones that are here breaking the law by being undocumented are sent packing and never allowed to return back, I would not have a problem with legal Mexican immigrants that speak English being here...

CuriositySatisfaction

If they come here LEGALLY
Then they are WELCOME

It would be better on all the hospitals, all of the California and Texas, Arizona welfare systems. But it is a useless question because they are here; All states are being over run with the masses. How about give other countries a chance to illegally immigrate like Philipines, Africa, Cuba, Asia, India and other countries who would like to overload the systems.

Immigrants from all countries are much more likely to be entrepreneurs who hire workers than natives or illegal immigrants.

Even when illegals start businesses, they only hire other illegals. They can't afford to chance one of their employees having the bargaining power that would go along with knowing you boss has no right to live here.

Legal immigrants who start businesses almost always want people working for them who will make natives feel comfortable doing business with them, so they will try to hire people native to the area.

They usually are a boost to the job market for that reason.

The only people who don't like legal immigrants moving in are the business owners who have to compete with the new business that are started by them and are forced to pay the higher wages that result from a better job market.

emenbensma

I would not care. I think we should make our borders more fluid between Mexico and the U.S. It's not like we have a wall between us and Canada. It's racism, plain and simple!

Cifredo

What I think is that I don't care if they come legally or ellegally infact I wish more of them would come (doesn't matter what race) because if more of them come the house prices would go through the room! then us the people that do have homes would get a huge profit out of that.

Yussef D

No. I want some illegals ( Undocumented ) too.

So they can work under the table for 8 dlls an hour , instead 10, in my businesses in Texas, and California.
It will save me a lot of Taxes.
