Americans  - 80\nIllegals   - 20\n\nKeep going illegals, you are only getting more Americans against you.\n\nI forgot.  Who is going to throw out the race card first?

THEY (legal and non legal immigrants) threw out the race card first.  Notice they are all for breaking the law?  They want a free ticket in to this country, expect to be handed jobs and  health benefits (free, I might add) automatically, and so far our government has obliged them.  It doesn't look like our goverment is really against illegal immigration.  It's a lie and a sad thing.  I am totally against illegal immigration.  If you want to come here that's great I'm not against that, just do it legally.

hmmm.....don't see many of the regulars answering this question/statement do you.\n\nanother aspect of this immigration topic we have yet to pick the scab off.\n\nI love it.\n\nOh but I have to add....they are all going to post quickly with "illegal".....though that had nothing to do with the question.....that is going to be your basic answer.\n\nLMAO\n\ngood post!

Don't let it bother you.  It's a last ditch effort to justify ILLEGAL actions.  The race card no longer holds any meaning here.

I can't believe the extent that people will go in order to justify illegal immigration.  You guys will find any excuse to justify breaking the law.  \n\nAnd how is Made_in_America's statement racist?  I also saw the news and they stated it was Mexicans, not Americans, bringing in the drugs.  \n\nAs far as the lame excuse about "whites" buying drugs, if drugs weren't here, there would be nothing to buy.  Stating that "Whites" buy drugs is a racist remark in itself.

Ya...the PC is overdone.  The "race" card is overdone.  The "war" on anything is over.  "For the sake of the children" is over.  Sometimes what it is, is just ,what it is, and there's no other way of distorting facts or hiding behind words.  Brown or Mexican or any of that, is not a "race".  They are a "blend" of the same darned ancestors I have.  They are killing people in Africa because they aren't "black" enough and killing people in Mexico because they are "too" brown.  I doubt there's too many that are a true "pure" race of anything.  I have American Indian in me but you'd be hard pressed to "see" it.  But you can with my oldest daughter.  They have a "rule" here in certain states ,with the 1 drop rule.  1 drop of African blood makes you "black".  You can be snow-white, blonde, blue-eyed and be "black".  Yet you can be 99 9/10ths white and not be "white".  Even though you "look" white.  I do remember the "latin lover" and the dudes from Mexico don't look like Antionio Bandaras.  Even though they are supposidly of the same "race".  I mean please.......5ft fat Jose' is no stud muffin.  Gina Lolabridgeada(sp?) is no Maria Gonzalas.  Why?  Because the really beautiful ones are of a "blended" race.\n\nThese guys that HATE Americans.....you couldn't PICK an American from a crowd of people.  You guys that HATE "whites" ,couldn't tell the difference between an American "white" from a Canadian "white" or Australian "white" or a European "white".

why do you refer to poor americans as bottom feeders? are you a racist or just someone who hates all americans? and do you believe that poor americans deserve less of a chance at a better life because they are american. why aren't you calling for reform within the countries that these illegal immigrants come from. everyone demands that america must change and no one calls for change from any other country. and i could care less where they are from. if they want to come to america then do it the legal way.

fenchurch is wrong in stating that most are here legally. INS statistics say otherwise, to the tune of about 8-10 million people depending on which survey you read. Illegal immigrants cannot legally vote, although many have forged ID's and Social Security cards, so some may have tried it and succeeded (depending on how well their backgrounds were checked, which generally isn't very well). Illegal immigrants are basically spitting in the faces of all who came to this country LEGALLY, through the proper channels, like my ancestors had to. And the liberals don't even call them illegals anymore-which they are. They call them "undocumented aliens". What a joke.

Absolutly making it worse!!!  Just like the terriorists are making it worse for Muslims.  They say all muslims aren't terriorists but all terriorists are muslim.  All Mexicans aren't members of the Atzlan/Reconquista crowd but all members are Mexican.  The legal families as well as illegal who do not agree with them are "collateral damage" in their broad scheme.  Why else would 2 non-english speaking students beat the crap out of another who did?  Why would a fellow Mexican get drug out of his car and beaten during a Mexican holiday for having an American flag on his car?  Why would another have scalding coffee thrown in his face because he was against amnesty?  Why do they make it a "race" thing when the head of the Minutemen in Il. is latino?  Other Minutemen are latino.  Where was the race card when 2 Mexican-American  border patrol agents are being unjustly punished for doing their job?  The American people are behind them.  They'll support Elvira who is breaking the law and leave their own out to dry for supporting the law.  They are playing the language card to further cause a rift and seperation of people.  Even when people who learn Spanish to try and communicate...it's not the "right" Spanish....it has to Mexican Spanish.  Anything and everything to push everyone who isn't Mexican out of the picture.  How well do you think a Korean-American is going do speaking the Mexican version of Spanish?  Sorry.....but no.....they are doing incrediable damage.  Their hate and their agenda is far louder and having more impact on the American people than anything.

It should be the citizens of this country.  Controlled immigration was workable so it allowed people in smaller numbers to assimilate and avoid what is happening nationwide now.  This is now a group that refuses to assimilate and figures their numbers will alter America forever.  A huge mistake.

Here in Arizona there are more "native" people per square mile that in any other part of the nation. I travel through 4 different reservations daily. The number of American flags you will see flying from homes is awesome. These people respect America and America respects them. These are law abiding people. You would be hard pressed to convince even a few to allow illegals into America.

illegal immigration is turning this country into something other than a 'melting pot'...with soo many new (illegal) immigrants, that are prob. going to get amnesty, the u.s. will have no choice but to limit the amount of immigrants comming from other countries around the world, to keep the u.s. from becomming over populated.. our immigration system is being overwhelmed by a single region, and i'm afraid other's in the world will see it as unfair...i will agree with them. (many people around the world have to wait years, and even decades for the immigration lottery to pick them, on top of paying all the legal fees, and seeing others break the law and get away with it is depressing)

I wonder how many would take on the financial burden if there was a choice in the matter. If Americans could decide whether or not to pay for these illegals on an individual basis. I would bet there would be alot less "supporters"

Our Senators said F.U. the American people.  I so agree with Godzilla.  Also think about this, how many more illegal women are thinking of getting knocked up while here as a guest worker.  They are supposed to go home after two years,  how are we going to make them go home if they have a bunch of American kids? We need to revoke that privilege if we are to curtail further illegal immigration. If an illegal alien has a child here, that child should be the nationality of the mother's home country.   They may start to think twice about coming here if we do that in conjunction with tighter security at the border, and making it a felony for an employer to knowingly hire illegals. We can't just have more border patrol agents because guess what, the word has already gone to Mexico and even more are going to come storm our border to nullify to new additions to the B.P.  What do we do now?

I don't agree with you, but Americans will suffer if these illegals are given amnesty. There will be more encouragement, not less, for more illegal immigration meaning less jobs for American citizens. There will be more social security and identification theft. There will be even more infringement on American rights as we are forced even more to cater to their demands. Our children will suffer even more as the nonEnglish speaking children slow down the class curriculum. This will basically say once again that our laws mean nothing. More and more Americans will be jobless or working poor and forced into poverty. We will continue on our path to becoming a 3rd world country.

ummm...why do they have to be bastard children? You DO know that any person born on US soil is a US citzen, right? Besides a bastard is a person that doesn't know their parents. \n\nAnyways, why does it matter? There will probably be anywhere between 0 and 40 million illegals, but who knows? All I know is that there are hard working illegals and loafing illegals, JUST LIKE there are hardworking AMERICAN citizens and loafing AMERICAN citizens. How do you know that in 2026 there will be an America and not a world government? Quit your complaining, cause there is not going to be any way to completely stop the flow of "illegal immigrants". As proof, look at occupied countries during world war two. The Germans had entire army divisions routing out freedom fighters that moved accross boarders. They failed since we still had downed airman returned to neutral or allied countries. \n\nSo, in short we should tighten our boarders, but the complaints and numbers don't matter since we need to learn how to use this in a positive manner and quit wasting the time and energy into stopping it.

MAJORITY of Americans are very welcoming and giving.  Majority are not racist.  However, Majority of Americans are anti-illegals.\n\nIllegals = Bad\nLegal = Good
