Do people see the "ILLEGAL" in front of immigrants? I am so tied of people saying “your ancient were immigrants" HELLO we did not have a law on illegal immigrants during those times. \n\nAnd why are you throwing that this way I'm an African American my ancient were drag over here, and their kids had to fight for rights that should have been giving to them on birth.  So when they went to the streets for Civil Rights it was because of the 13th amendment. Not because they jump over a wall. \n\n\nAnd to say that they work the jobs American don't want PLEASE TAKE THAT S%%# some where else the fact of the matter is that they work jobs for less, so that they can get them illegal. If you saw the news illegal immigrants hold waiter jobs (Americans work them), construction jobs (Americans work them), cashier (American work them), housekeeping (Americans work them), warehouse jobs (Americans work them), and etc. I can go on but the whole thing about the jobs are that illegal immigrants will work for less pay then an legal citizen will so a business will hire them first for the low pay. Many Americans who are low in education try for these jobs and are turned away because it is a bid on the lowest paid worker.\n\nBut if you don’t agree with me I don’t care because in November the Congress will feel my words, on my vote.

immigration. well i am full blooded Mexican American. my father was in Vietnam, grandfathers in world war II, I struggle to get to pay bills. hard to find a decent job. but i manage and tell my daughter how great this country is every day. It angers  me to see Mexican nationals go to the grocery store, pay for there food, complain about sale priced items only to pay with food stamps and then to see them load it up in there escalade, or other brand new car. but yet there plates still show Mexico. they only come to complain about our society. but yet will mooch off it as much as possible. well Monday they are to do a strike. if any one is in position to fire anyone, then get those illegals and people that should remember just where you live. freedom is not free. and my family as well as many other families fought and gave life for this freedom. don't throw that though away just for people who don't deserve it. if you are American citizen, then do your part and go to work. remember where you came from and remember why people want to come to this country. long live the USA

We already have Latinos in my neighborhood, we also have black people now  (at one time it was all white).  They all have jobs, speak English and are decent people who do not cause any problems. They comprehend that garbage is supposed to be put in garbage bags, not thrown into the street.  They keep their home nice and well-maintained.  Their kids are polite and stay off other people's property, and ask permission if they want to go on ours for some reason.  I do not really care whether the person is white, black or Latino, as long as they do not cause problems in the neighborhood, I have no problem with them being there.  But if they do cause trouble, I do not want them there, no matter what race they are.

I run a shop in florida my boss used to start people out at 10$ an hour he layed off my crew and hired illegal mexacans at 7$ an hour he is a multi millionaire.The lumbaryard next to me has nothing but illegal immigrants thats where my boss got his the man that owns it bought an island in the bahamas and built a mansion on it he roofed the mansion with tounge and groove teak at a cost of about 200,000 dollars both men are considerd small buisnessmen by the U.S. goverment.I grew up in southern California and was always impressed with the illegals and how hard they worked and tried to become a part of the culture.I had to take up spanish because my crew has told me they should not have to learn english since my boss wanted spanish workers.My neighbors for 3yrs dont speak english but think its wonderfull that i am learning spanish.If anyone in this country thinks these are the mexicans of old they are badly mistaken they want everything America has to offer and are more than willing to work and sacrifice for it but they do not want to be american they do not want to add there culture to ours or emrace are traditions what they want is a complete illemination of the border and cheap labor will be a thing of the past.Mexico is a socialist country and they will do the same here.I keep hearing this is all about fear as if the things i have seen are anomalys twelve million people who will vote because they are not stupid will have a huge impact on the way this country is run.Hope this helps sorry it was so long

I'm black and I say we are people too. Yes there are some black people that commit crimes, but there are people like that in other races too. I feel trully honored to be a young black woman in the world today. I'm proud about my race and heritage. But the one thing I can not stand, about some people of my own race is that the ones that don't use their education call the ones that do use theirs, acting white. I don't see how wanting to better yourself and secure your future is acting white. I mean I think more education anyone has should make them better off in the world. Because you can get great jobs and be able to take care of your family. So that is one of the things that I don't like about my own race. Another thing I can't stand is the fact that some people of my race seek out reasons and ways things are racist. I say if you go looking for it you will always get smacked in the face with it. I think a few of those people are being even more racist, because you are searching for reasons for someone to hate on you. I say everyone in the black community and myself included should just go and live life, if you are held back in one area find another arena to get involved in. But don't give up at all. Just keep striving forward more than ever before. But thats just how I see things.

I would definitely choose the blacks.  The Mexicans come over here and deplete our food stamps, medicaid and everything else they can get their hands on that free. Then they have 13 children.  They are taking over.  And they have the nerve to fly our flag upside down.  They need to go home.  At least the blacks have American Pride.

Anyone here a member of a union.  The jobs they do, these are not jobs that no americans will do, busboy, valet, waiter, etc.  Maybe Americans want to be paid more but hey, when you have a minimum wage, that's to be expected.  \n\nPersonally, I know a lot of international people.  I hear a lot about their problems getting into this country.  To me, illegal immigration is like cutting ahead of all these great people.  Is that fair, hells no, life in mexico isn't great, but the people in mexico can't complain about anything.  They no nothing about hard life.  If we should allow illegal immigration on the basis of them being refugees, then there are millions in Africa who we should bring in first.  There are two ways of doing it, don't let anyone in illegally, or let everyone in.  And I think we would know what happens if we just opened the floodgates.    \n\nIf the people protesting really wanted to be here, wouldn't they have an american flag, not a mexican one.  I'm really sick of the racial preservation.  You want to be proud to be mexican, go be proud in mexico, because if you want to say you're proud to be mexico and you're illegal, you're saying that you're proud you grew up from such filth that you couldn't help but leave(but you still love being from there).

Ofcourse Americans never want to do any dirty work!! I seriously don't know what they trippin' about if we all have a history of immigrating...right? I think Americans are just selfish...They want this country for themselves when this country is nothing  without mexicans...I would really want to see all Americans in the fields picking out some strawberries and picking out some tomatoes in a hot weather...haha!! and they complaining about there's no jobs outthere and that immigrants are taking them all...People there is, but not the ones u want!!they pay the minimum...and Americans want to get paid more..so be thankful that there's people that are willing to do those dirty jobs for lil' money...All what this people is looking for a is called an opportunity...You guys don't know what's the living across the border...how about u putting yourself in their shoes? I didn't think u guys would...so why don't u guys support people that are only trying to make a living and work their asses off for their families? isn't that what we all do in a daily basis?think people...think...

The U.S.A! would not survive without Mexicans. The reason for that is we do all the jobs that other people don't want to do, such as cleaning buildings where you live, work and enjoy yourself. As for the statement " as if we had any problems taking care of ourselves before they got here " WE WERE HERE FIRST!!!! The white people ( I say white because white people don't even know there own heritage, or where they come from, or whats in there blood )\nThat's sad,to not know where you come from. To be honest, when I was younger, I didn't really embrace my culture, the reason for this was because I was so brainwashed. Now, being 23 years old, I'm so happy that I can speak two languages perfectly, and that I can go to another country and feel right at home, just like here in the U.S.A. I feel bad mentioning WHITE people in here, but to be honest, They're the leaders in racism, and unfortunately they're the leaders of the United States. That's sad...Isn't this supposed to be the land of opportunity and the land of many different colors."This land is my land, this land is your land, from sea to shining sea " And oh yea, if we were to leave, it would be so funny to see all of you doing the jobs Mexicans were doing just fine!

I read an article on that very subject this morning on yahoo. When illegals take a job, they are taking something from ALL Americans, but the ones that are most affected are black Americans. The story said. You are right. More important than the color of their skin is the fact that they are Americans.

Well, they can't sat SH*T to me. I'm American...of Mexican blood...and I think all illegals need to stop complaining, go home, and not come back here until they're legal. They hurt regular Americans by taking jobs that would otherwise offer decent wages to those with less education or those who just prefer to work with their hands instead of sitting behind a desk.

I think it showed that they have no allegience to the US, or else they would not intentionally try to harm the economy.  However, I don't think they did...and this business about protesting until the government gives them their way...sounds like a temper tantrum to me..and one that needs to be stopped.  And this does not make me racist...it makes me sensible..illegal is illegal, period.  And to the people who are going to talk about the laws 200 years ago...times have changed, laws have changed.. Check out citizenship laws in Mexico...they don't allow illegal immigrants, much less give them drivers lisences, translate all into a foreign language for their convenience, or allow them to protest.
