They simply refuse to assimilate into American culture. As a country of immigrants, we are all keenly aware of who we are, and where we came from. All said, the only flag I fly at my house is an AMERICAN flag! In other words, they have no respect for us, and it's time we return the sentiment! Look at it this way. When we start rounding them up for deportation, we'll know who's who and where they're going by the flags on their houses, cars, shirts, in their hands... just makes it easier for us! After all, you know how lazy we are!!

I am Mexican and I lived in the US, but I was not illegal. Most illegal immigrants have a bad way of life and for them the US is the only opportunity to have a better life. I know that it is illegal and wrong, but for most of them, life did get better and it makes me feel good because I HATE seeing anything suffer. The reason why illegals go to the US is that they see the American way of life, and they wish they had such a good quality of life, and unfortunately, in Mexico, many people have a bad quality of life.

First and foremost.... these people DO NOT WANT TO BECOME CITIZENS.  Therefore, they will not join up to pay taxes, etc.  They will just continue to send $$$ home to Mexico. Bush and company assume they want to be citizens, but I have not heard any of the illegals say that.  Just that they are "taking over".  Send them all  back.  No special treatment or deals.

They come and live here because they know they can do what they want, they build mosques over here, if we built a church over there, we'd get beheaded. Like someone on the news said if war broke out between England and their birth country, they would support their birth country because it is their home.If it's their home why don't they go back?

To get to the other side.  Ha, ha.  \n\nNo seriously, Mexicans come here for any number of reasons, but from what I've heard they usually do it for better economic opportunites.  \n\nBut sometimes it is for education, or to learn English and see new places, meet new people, or to do business, sell stuff to gringos or to buy some Nike shoes and Coca-Cola and see Mickey at Disneyworld, some people are escaping persecution, violent spouses, drug mafia bent on murder and kidnapping.  I've known Mexicans who have come here for each and every one of those reasons.  Basically they are just like us and travel for the same reasons anyone goes from one country to another.

They have a right to leave and come here legally.  Illegals appear to have more rights and privileges than American citizens.

they want the best of both worlds.  they want to remain a mexican citizen and criticize the US for being a racist country but yet they want to stay here even though they are not welcomed.  they are raping our country.

No what I can't understand is why illegals are protesting this and demanding rights as though they have ANY rights. I don't understand where they get off. They demand that they get the same rights as legals who have worked for their citizenship. They aren't legals. They aren't supposed to be here and yet they are protesting and demanding rights. They need to realize that they have no rights and deserve no rights. They are stealing jobs and causing crime in a country that they are in illegally.

YES, WHY NOT? BEFORE GOVERNMENTS WERE ESTABLISHED, PEOPLE USED TO WALK MILE AND MILES UNTIL THEY DECIDED TO STAY THINKING THAT WAS THE BEST LAND TO START A NEW LIFE, SOME OF US WERE LUCKY SOME OF US WERE NOT, AS YOU CAN SEE NOW, WE HAVE BORDER OWNERS PRESIDENTS, PRIME MINISTERS, KINGDOMS.ETC... THE REST IS YOUR TO THINK ABOUT IT....IT IS HUMAN TO LET PEOPLE TO TRY TO SURVIVE THE BEST WAY THAT THEY CAN , IF IT MEAN TO ENTER ILLEGAL TO A COUNTRY IF THERE IS AN OPPORTUNITY WHY NOT AS LONG THEY ARE NOT DOING NOTHING OUT OF NORMAL TO EARN FOR THEIR NEEDS I THINK THEY CAN STAY THERE SHOULD NOT BE A PROBLEM FOR A COUNTRY LIKE US.

It costs too much to become a citizen.  I THINK it's three hundred dollars just for one person.  How is a man supposed to bring his family to this country.  They are practically forced into poverty if they do make it over here.  Most people have no choice but to immigrate illegally.  How are they supposed to afford citizenship?  I am ocmpletely against illegal immigration.  But I completely understand WHY people come here illegally.

The fact is that if they stay in their own country -- as they should until such time as they are afforded the pportunity to emigrate legally -- it will be IMPOSSIBLE for them to be exploited (by Americans)!!!!   The real exploiters are the Republican and  Democrat parties who want illegals for their votes!!!!

It's not easy to get here legally. In order to be granted a right to come here legally you have to show proof that you are wealthy (or at least well off) in you country. They want to know you have an incentive to go back. \n\nThe majority of people who are crossing here illegally don't have the assets needed. That's why they are coming here...in search of a dream.\n\nThey are here doing jobs that most of us would not want to do. If anybody who was born here, and educated here, feels they are being robbed by illegals (who probably don't even speak English) then I have to say that particular person has real low expectations of themselves. I don't think we should blame others for our own failures.

All the people of the USA are descended from IMMIGRANTS some LEGAL, some ILLEGAL. Except the 100% Native Americans. The USA won the land they think we stole, then paid for the same land. If the people who were Mexican didn't want to be U.S. American citizens they were given the option to to stay or go back to Mexico. We have laws to control illegal immigrants now,(although not recently enforced). It is necessary to prevent too many people coming into the USA too fast.\nphotofemale810 is asking a legitimate question. They(those ILLEGAL people doing the protests and demanding rights they don't HAVE) DO NOT respect the USA when they fly the flag of the very country they left due to low wages and bureaucratic greed. They do NOT respect the USA when they call the citizens filthy names, when it is those very citizens who pay and have paid (since they worked their first job) taxes which supports the very welfare assistance programs the protesters ABUSE. If those people are so"strong" and "hardworking" and have any "pride" they would go back to their own country and make it better for their children and their grandchildren. How can those children/grandchildren grow up to respect their ancestors when they came here illegally, protested, demanded rights that weren't theirs and turned their backs on their very own country and heritage? Where is the pride in that? They need to get strength from their fellow man in their OWN country and fight and protest THERE.

Why don't you go back to your country?

That's a great question.  I don't know but my guess is maybe they know they have a better chance of changing America than the country they came from. Most immigrants leave their country for economic, religious, or safety reasons.

If they are here illegally then they should not stay. They broke the law.

You are so right . If you want to know why some are here , look up -LaRaza  and MEChA to see their  agenda in this country . \n Why shouldn't Mexico want illegalls to come here , they send back over $20 million a year .
