I agree with you. I live in Texas and I remember seeing the protest and this one old mexican american women told the protesters " why don't you go to your own country and protest!" I couldn't stop laughing

That's one traditional way to stop invaders.  But all the immigration criminals ("undocumented citizens") would leave on their own if we confiscated any business that employs them and sell it to competent, non-cheating businessmen without compensation to the economic traitors.

Come on do you really think it's Bush's doing? I swear the Democrates are hypocrite especially Hilary Clinton. Sean Hannity had a tape of her actually 2 one from months earlier slamming the illegal aliens and a recent one talking about how great they are. My whole problem with all of this is that they are here illegally, why aren't we out arresting them and sticking them on buses and taking them back across the boarder. They are out of control and if we allow them to stay we are just setting ourselves up for future problems. Riots because Gee if we throw a fit and protest then we get our way. What about all the ones over on the other side who are trying to follow our laws and filling out the paper work, is it fair to them. What are we teaching these people? I'll tell you, we are teaching them that it's OK to break our laws, it's OK to protest, well I don't agree, they need to be dealt with and taught that there is no tolerance to those who would break our laws and not follow our rules. I am all for allowing people into our great country, I love my country and I understand why they want to come here but it needs to be done the right way. If it isn't then it will set a president that we won't like and will not be able to live with in the long run. I want people who will follow our laws and respect them. So me that you will do the right thing then I'm all for you coming here.

Correct on EVERY thing you have said....Nice job sassy. Not to mention..It is being said that prices of goods and services would be on the rise when we deport the "illegals" from our land. If this is the case..why haven't prices gone down as a result of there illegal employment?

It is a very touchy subject because yes they shouldn't be allowed to come over and be over here illegally, but at the same time them being illegal doesn't mean that they should be allowed to be taken advantage of and exploited by greedy business owners.  And for the "the U.S. used to be Mexico" argument, that is lame because almost every piece of land was at one time owned by different peoples, we took it just as people have been taking land since the beginning of time.

wow good news indeed and to the posts that called us names this is the problem with the pro illegal team they call us names and demand and say it was their land first instead of saying something worthy  a good reason for us to say ok maybe we should hear them out or they may have something there not all of them but the most say these same things and they making more Americans less  open hearted i have yet to hear a good reason why we should let this continue  and we should go on and support mexico;s corruption at times i feel sorry for them  but when will it end for if the corruption continues then we will be repeating this same scenario in the future,  and yet  they themselves show no ill feelings towards mexico  and show that's were their true loyalty lies and  that is beyond me in understanding  it seems they don't want to be Americans they  just want our money.

i do... the usa call themselves the land of the brave and free isn't it, so...be brave to take illegals as they do the jobs your own people don't want to , feel free to welcome them as you can learn from them , it is called multucultural exchange...

I'll Second that and give you a pat on the back, but i think a protest doesnt help anything, it just causes trouble for all the other people than the ones you are trying to affect in the first place anyways.

Yes, I think it's a common attitude. It's called ethnocentrism. One point you neglected to consider, however, is that illegal aliens are actually the ones doing the menial labor that you don't want to do and that you don't want your kids to do. If they leave, perhaps your kids will be the ones to take their place picking tomatoes in the field. Who knows?\n\nI think people have misconstrued what the protestors are trying to say. They are simply trying to raise awareness about the fact that they, too, contribute to our economy. They work at jobs most of us do not want, and they do it for pay we wouldn't accept. They may or may not pay income taxes, but they pay sales taxes on the American goods they purchase from American companies. Most of them obey the laws and mind their own business, which makes sense if you keep in mind that they have to keep their noses clean if they don't want to be caught and kicked out of the country. They're not asking for a helping hand; they're just asking for permission to continue contributing in a society that needs their work, whether we want to admit it or not.\n\nThat said, I don't think any of us wants to see illegal aliens given a free ride to citizenship. I don't have to hate Mexicans to want immigration reform. But the simple matter is that if I'm unhappy with the number of illegal immigrants in this country, then I should at the very least look at my own behavior and see if I'm contributing to the problem. If you're serious about wanting to keep illegal immigrants out, then stop wasting your time hating and start taking action. Write your state and national officials and tell them that you expect them to pass and FUND laws that will make it easier to catch illegal aliens and to fine companies and industries that hire them, and don't forget to add that you're willing to pay higher prices for your tomatoes, peaches, and clothing if that's what it takes.\n\nBest of luck.

I tend to agree.  This crap is pissing people off...and it's squandering any good will many of us may have had in regard to the plight of illegals.

Well....all those people that live here illegally have had a taste of freedom, perhaps they should take it back to Mexico or wherever they come from and spread it around. We as a nation are not responsible for cleaning up the world. Sometime people need to stand up for themselves instead of running to another country and enabling their country of origin to continue with their corruption with the funds they send back.

I agree 100% I am not an immigrant. Illegals and their supporters are trying to divert attention to the fact that THEY shouldn't be complaining. i don't mind hearing an opposing view point from an American . but I do not want to hear negativity from a person that shouldn't be here in the first place.

i agree with you. the illegals are not citizens and should not be able to protest for anything. they should earn their rights by being legal so that they can pay taxes like everyone else.

Oh my god don't get me started on this subject.  I would love to start a group of people who rounded up illegal immigrants, tied them up, threw them into the back of a truck and then dropped them off in the middle of Mexico.  I don't mind immigrants.  But the ones who sneak in here illegally don't deserve to stay.  I'd love to go to a protest!

ill continue my usual routine...\n\ni hope they have fun pushing their propaganda...this whole issue is REALLY about people who cross our borders illegally NOT all immigrants...\n\ndespicable...

This is what suprises me...that the "legal" immegrant population is willing to allow their way of life here in the U.S to be dramatically reduced for the sake of their "Illegal" counter parts. What's going to happen when we let all these people become citizens? a new build up of illegals will start! Your schools, your freeways, your hospitals are all overcrowded NOW! What does the future hold when we don't say NO? The poor will continue to crowd into their dingy one bedroom apartments while the rich will continue to exploit them for pennies! Pretty soon OUR country will be like Mexico in that we will have those that are rich exploiting those that are dirt poor!....and you will have brought it on yourselves!

ricardocobar, I think this issue is really being muddy up by both the media and the protest groups. By what you have stated you came to this country and began obtaining legal status for immigration. This Issue is not about you, and I wish the media would stop grouping together immigrants with people that come to this country and don't do it in any legal fashion. \nYes I feel that some of the immigration rules make it easier to make people chose to come here Illegally.
