Would you support having illegal aliens join the military as a way to gain legal status?

Theophania

Yes... If they are willing to fight for our country (and die for it), then I think they deserve to become a citizen...

They are already becoming citizens. It kind of screws up all the weeping and grinding of teeth around this issue. If they are good enough for the Army, then they are better Americans than you are!

No. Military Institution deserves respect, and being a GI most be seen as a honor.

There are many americans without citizenships in our militaary now. I am in Iraq and know of 3 in our unit that just got there citizenship while out here in the desert.

If there willing to volunteer and die for the country then why not!

They aren't technically illegal aliens if they are in the armed services, since they followed the proper paper work. There is a debate on if their illegal alien relatives should be sent back or not (I think they should). The U.S. military has had success with using foreign troops while it was still the British military. The French Foreign Legion has supposedly worked out well for them. I don't think there is anything wrong with it.

Yes if they are here for the better of our great country and not just themselves i sya let them join. i work with lots of people that are not US citizens. but are getting it as part of serving in the military.

It sounds like a good idea.

NO! NO and a BiG N.O.

The Military is NOT for Illegal Aliens who've already broke a law. Knowing thatl most of them don't speak, read nor understrand English, how do you expect them to do good? Do you want OUR military to start speaking a language other than English if they do get integrated into the US military?

You CANNOT join the military if you are illegal. PERIOD. What people misunderstand is that there is a difference between being a Permanent Resident and an American Citizen. You have to be a Permanent Resident to enlist, American Citizenship comes later.

Doing that would make us look like predators. Making people do something like that for something they covet just doesn't sound nor look to good.

show me one case where an illegal went in the US military hogwash they cant even get close to an interview

â–‘BigBullâ–‘

Why the fukc not??!! Lazy, pacifist, America hating Americans bithc and groan about the military, so let someone do it.

HOOAH! It's an Army Thing

No. They have already demonstrated that they have no respect for our national laws by entering illegally. Why reward them for prior misconduct?

dukalink6000

We did that in the past with other immigrants

I support them joining the military but I believe they shoud have to go to Iraq or Afgan. for the first year of there enlistment. But they have to take english speaking test before they become citzens.

sounds good to me. Let them prove how bad they want to live in this country.

scorpiomaj27

Last I *heard* you can become legal if you do 3 years.

xxtrmi
