Are you tired of that same old argument that we are all immigrants?

I Hear you, I believe that no matter what America belongs to everyone who is willing to live and work! Immigrants do not come to Live Free, we all come to live the American Dream which obiously has been torn and burned into pieces. Remember MLK said I HAVE A DREAM....

YES! American citizens, native born, or legal immigrants need to say ENOUGH, and do whatever is necessary to protect the sovereignty of the country, allot of men have died for something this generation is throwing away.

No not ALL 'immigrants'.. Just the ILLEGAL immigrants!!! THEY are ILLEGALLY here, that's WHY!!\n\nILLEGAL= failure to follow the law, against the law, not abiding by the LAW\n  \nimmigrants=people from other countries, not native, not citizen\n\nComprende' ??

I agree with you,mate,but it looks like we're on a loser here.Some  of the answers make a distinction 'legal' & 'illegal',but if they see an obvious foreigner in the street,they don't ask themselves that question,they think 'bloody immigrant'.A little bit of racism here,don't you think?

Everyday I stand my ground. And I am sure so does everyone who was born and raised in the United States has to "stand your ground". To protect and save what is theres... This case being our "homeland" being taken over by illegals ...they are not immigrants. Because I wont give them the title until they do it the right way. Not jumping the boarder. And I have to "stand my ground" cause I have to protect my job. Or they would have my job too.

You said it! I agree with you completely. There is not enough room in this world for hate- It has caused too many problems already. Illegal immigrants are only trying to improve their lives, their children's lives. I'm not going into a debate on the issue, but the hate and anger need to stop. What happened to America that we act like this?

I believe that we are. We have gotten fed up with the way the country is being run. Many, myself included, are fed up with the way illegal  immigrants are mollycoddled by our government. They break laws and are given rewards for it. They paid little, if any into our economy or taxes, and yet they are allowed to use and abuse our tax-paid programs, which WE paid for. Then they SEND money back to their homelands, taking revenue AWAY from the USA. That money is GONE from our country's economy, it's not revenue for the USA. It is revenue for THAT country. Americans are beginning to see what is going on.  Many still need to open their eyes and pay attention.\n\nI have written my congressmen and senators and I have signed petitions. I talk to my neighbors,friends and family and it really surprises me that some of them are not aware of what is going on.  I guess they think it is just a Southwestern problem, not everybody's problem. When I talk to them and point out things they hadn't took the time to notice, then  they start paying attention. I have noticed some companies I call on the phone only have one button to push now, for Spanish, otherwise they get English. Small step, but it's a start. Bigger things need to happen, we can't stop fighting for the rights of the American citizens in the USA and to abolish the injustices our leaders have put on us.

Yes.  They are stupid.  That's why they are still ILLEGALS ... even after their stupidass protest.  Flippin morons if you ask me.\n\nOh yeah ... and to MORONS that say everyone in the US is an immigrant .... that may be correct, but we're not ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS you flippin idiots!!!!

Your attitude makes me sick! It's a wonder anyone outside the U.S. would want to come here- legally or illegally, when they have to deal with people with so much hatred in their hearts toward foreigners. You think it's all "a game" to them? You think it's "easy" for them to make a life here? You're very wrong. You haven't walked a mile in any one of their shoes, have you? So what makes you the expert on what they think and feel? You are stereotyping an entire culture (or two!) and that's really unfair. You know what I think? We would live in a better world if we had "no borders" dividing any of us! But, if we absolutely HAD TO, we should take haters like you and put them on an island , and far from any other land! Then maybe the rest of us could live in peace.

it is way easier to blame the immigrants it has always been that way . the new comers have always been blamed sadly this is the case in most countries . but history has proved so many times  how the new comers are usually the harder workers and the ones who usually do what not others want .\n\n so far i seen many saying 'the Americans were doing the same before they were here" \n\nbut i ask has anyone hear any American saying i will go and pick tomatoes , i will go and be on the sun most of the day , i will go and work for the little they get pay ???\n\nit is easy to say "it is their fault" instead of doing something to better their lives . how many are saying i will study more , i will learn Spanish i will do something to be more educated and have better opportunities ?  \n\ninstead they first choose someone who clearly said i will take your jobs away and then they blame it on the immigrants .\n\nREEDITED ................................\n\ni was especting more racist commens so i would like to add some of the tipical wrong blaming of some americans :\n\n a) they have tuberculosis , what should we do ? \n\n- their own answer : lets blame the immigrants \n\n- the logical answer which should be given : why aren't we doing something to stop this sickness ? \n\n- logical thing to do  : attack the sickness not the sick .\n\nb) america gets hit by a tornado and looses many jobs .\n\n- their answer : lets blame the immigrants who are building the city back and will bring the progress back to the city .\n\n- logical thing to do : lets all star working and stop blaming others for a natural phenomenon which they had nothing to do whit .\n\n c) americans choose a president who promised to take away the jobs from america to other places .\n\n- their own answer : let choose him a second time and then blame the illegals of taking our jobs away .\n\n- logical thing to do : lets no choose this option but the one who promises to bring back our bussines .\n\nd) drugs in america brough by drug trafiquers because of the demand of the americans .\n\n- thier own answer : lets buy them and them blame the illegals for bringing them while doing nothing about it .\n\n- logical thing to do: lets stop buying them and take responsabiliity for what we are doing and lets stop selling weapons to drug trafiquers and to anyone just to make sure not a single delinquent gets them and if they do lets make sure they get at least ten year for illegal posesion of a weapon .\n\nsomething extra :\n\nwhile many say they do not have nothing agains people who are legal , they go and say that the first legalization did not work . so i ask myself what are they saying  by this ? \n\ni believe they are saying the immigrants who were legalized then are a burden to the country . therefor it is a contradiction to say the have nothing agains them when they call them a burden .

Not just NO but HELL NO!The expression "We didn't cross the border, the border crossed us!" comes to mind.\n\nPeople who support this stupid, ignorant, xeno-phobic, racist, and unfair laws that criminalize undocumented immigrants are a bunch of assholes! \n\nGet your heads out of your ass and read some history books for God's sake! Immigrants MADE this country great! If the same bullshit laws were past, let's say about 60 to 80 years ago then many Americans RIGHT NOW wouldn't be successful or law obeying tax paying people. It takes about five generations to become "an American"\n\nIf you study American history you will find similar stupid ass ideas that illegal immigrants are hurting the country. Southern Europeans, Eastern Europeans, and Western Europeans (yes, even Germans) were once believed to be the "great evil within" the country. The Chinese and Japanese were treated like crap, even people of certain religions (Irish Catholics) were treated like dogs by other immigrants who were a few generations removed from their mother lands culture and language (Assimilation)\n\nLet's not forget the Civil Rights Era of the 1960's. \n\nImmigrant legal or not pay taxes which helps America. So these laws only help the way to HATE, FEAR, and the Fairness that is our great country America!!!

Why do people on here assume that everybody here is from the same area. Don't you realize that people from all over the world are reading your questions?

No, we've had the same amount of illegal immigration for the last 120 years.  The only reason that this is even getting press is because certain politicians are looking for a hot-button issue to distract the dumbest in our society so that they don't demand that the politicians deal with real issues like war, debt, health care and social security.  Nothing will change with immigration and no one will notice when it no longer makes the news.  Just smile and ignore those stupid people when they get angry over this non-issue.  We're waaaaay to smart to get suckered into a BS argument about something that's not going to change and doesn't really matter at all anyway.  Besides, you and I are to busy worrying about real issues to be bothered with this crap.

IMMIGRANTS, NOT BRITON'S, MUST ADAPT.  Take It Or Leave It.  I am tired of this nation worrying about whether we are offending some individual or their culture.  Since the terrorist attacks on London, we have experienced a surge in patriotism by the majority of Brits.  However, the dust from the attacks has barely settled and the "politically correct" crowd begin complaining about the possibility that our patriotism is offending others.  I am not against immigration, nor do I hold a grudge against anyone\nwho is seeking a better life by coming to Britain. However, there are a few things that those who have recently come to our country, and apparently some born here, need to understand.  This idea of London being a multicultural\ncommunity has served only to dilute our sovereignty and our national identity.  As Britons, we have our own culture, our own society, our own language and our own lifestyle.  This culture has been developed over centuries of wars, struggles, trials and victories by millions of men and\nwomen who have sought freedom.  We speak ENGLISH, not Spanish, Lebanese, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese, Russian, or any other language.  Therefore, if you wish to become part of our society, learn the language!\n\n"In God We Trust" is our National Motto.  This is not some Christian, right wing, political slogan.  We adopted this motto because Christian men and women, on Christian principles, founded this nation, and this is clearly\ndocumented.  It is certainly appropriate to display it on the walls of our schools.  If God offends you, then I suggest you consider another part of the world as your new home, because God is part of our culture.\n\nIf the union Flag offends you, or you don't like " A Fair Go", then You should seriously consider a move to another part of this planet.  We are happy with our culture and have no desire to change, and we really don't care how you did things where you came from.\n\nThis is OUR COUNTRY, OUR LAND, and OUR LIFESTYLE, and we will allow you every opportunity to enjoy all this.  But once you are done complaining, whining, and griping about Our Flag, Our Pledge, Our National Motto, or Our Way of Life, I highly encourage you take advantage of one other great British freedom, "THE RIGHT TO LEAVE".  If you aren't happy here then b*gger off!  We didn't force you to come here.  You asked to be here.  So accept the country YOU accepted.  Pretty easy really, when you think about it.\nI figure if we all keep passing this to our friends (and enemies) it Will also, sooner or later get back to the complainers, lets all try, please.
