Yep. We have similar problems up in Canada with another ethnic group. We welcome immigrants, if its legal. Otherwise they live for years absorbing money without paying taxes, and sending a good portion of this money back to their home countries, where it is no longer is able to add to the nations economy.\n\nBTW-illsuitedwan... what's your definition of illegal???Illegals do NOT pay taxes, they are paid under the table (illegally) to avoid getting caught.As soon as the IRS recieves tax information on an illegal, the department of immigration is notified and deportation process begins.  Unless unemployment in the US (and Canada for that matter) is at zero percent which it has never been.  then there are 'legal' citizens who need the work, and would pay taxes. Employers get away with hiring illegals and paying them far less than the minimum wage (because they're illegal), automatically putting these people below the poverty line. So how is this helping them?

illegal mexicans are trying to sneak into our country and mooch off the welfare system and get foodstams, not to mention send their dirty children with lice (i gurantee it, EVERY mexican who came to school when i went to school had lice) to our schools, eat our foods, drive cars with no insurance, they want us to speak spicish, and to top it all off, they think they have rights?  they have ABSOLUTELY NO RIGHTS    THEY ARE ILLEGAL ILLEGAL!!!

No, they just play the race card because the socialist wing of the latino movement is trying to manipulate the common American hispanic into allowing citizenship for illegal aliens.  If you'd asked most American hispanics about their view of illegal aliens prior to this fracas, I bet most would've been in favor of sending the illegals back home.  But now that the marxist/socialists haven gotten a hold of the issue they've confused the topic with their rhetoric.  \n\nThe goal of these socialists is the delude the average all-American hispanic into letting the 10 million illegals get citizenship, and then the socialists bank at the election box on the imported socialism from Mexico.  The typical Mexican-American is not pro-socialist, and I don't think they realize they're being manipulated.\n\nAnd if you don't think they are socialist, just do some checking into the leaders' backgrounds.

Boy, they're quick to criticize you, even though you didn't say anything about race.  These are the same people that claim that not all illegal aliens are Mexicans.\n\nThe way to "encourage illegal aliens to leave" is to create an environment for them in the host country that is WORSE than the environment in their home country.  This can be accomplished by many relatively easy to enact and enforce laws.\n\n1) All these laws would carry fines that would pay for the costs of enforcing the laws.\n2) Absolutely no welfare for illegal aliens.\n3) Only EMERGENCY medicine for illegals.  And I mean it has to be a REAL emergency.\n4) Make it illegal to rent any property to illegals.\n5) Increase the punishment against employers of illegals SEVERELY.  Also, increase the enforcement.\n6) Create volunteer groups among citizens that search for employers of illegals.\n7) Make it illegal to cash checks for illegal aliens.\n8) Require that all individuals that hire people as maids or for other house related duties get proof that an individual is a legal resident of the USA.  A phone/internet service should be available for all people to reference when doing this.  If an individual hires an illegal, they should also get severe penalties.\n9) Provide no free schooling for illegal aliens.\n10) Stop giving citizenship to the children of illegals that are born in the USA.  In the event the father of the baby is an American, genetic testing must be used to prove that the child is his, and the parents must pay all processing costs associated with proving this.

since the citizens of the US of A started figuring out that we are being invaded by illegal aliens mostly from south of the border.  they wanted to project an image that Americans are racists and that they are the victims of racial hatred.  \n\nwe are in a state of emergeny.  they can call themselves "VICTIMS", "SAINTS" or the "ONLY HARDWORKING" race every existed on earth...they are still CRIMINALS and should be thrown back across the border.  yeah right...victims.  victim my azs.

I think the race card is an overused piece of rhetoric, the people that use it have one purpose in mind, to incite anger and resentment. \n\nThe blunt and bitter truth of the matter is, for all their superiority attitude, Mexico's got MILES to go before they're really quite qualified in telling other countries how to live. Look at the big picture, it's not mexican companies setting up shop in america to provide jobs for americans(it's japanese companies, but that's another story).\n\nAmerica's a good country, and if you look at all our policies, we're BEYOND generous, in some cases just GIVING it away. We've done that for so long now, we're trillions in debt. Someday, other people in other countries will finally decide to pull their fucking socks up, and start making an honest effort to solve their own fucking problems. THAT day can't come soon enough, as far as I'm concerned. And, Mexico is at the top of THAT list, in my opinion...

NO. MEXICANS WOULD FORCE US TO LEARN SPANISH AND LEARN MEXICAN HISTORY, WORST YET, THEY WOULD HAVE ALL OF US DEPORTED, FASTER THAN WE CAN SAY "I AM ONLY HERE FOR A BETTER LIFE."

You know, I've started to counter it with the following:\n\nI don't like the Mexican culture.  If I did, then I'd live it.  This isn't racist.  If the Mexican culture liked the white or black culture, they'd live that instead.  So, WHY would I want to give permanent residency to a bunch of freaking illegal aliens that aren't supposed to be here AND they represent a culture that I don't care for.  Furthermore, ANY illegal should be deported, so I'm not just picking on the Mexicans.\n\nNow, for those of you who think I'm racist, consider this:  You have a chosen culture.  I'm sure you have a PREFERRED culture.  Some may say that there isn't a Mexican culture.  NO, that' wrong.  If you need proof, come to San Antonio.  There is Mexican culture everywhere.  Some is good, much is bad.  Like speaking Spanish when you should be speaking English.  Or the chaotic mating ritual on Southwest Military Drive on Sunday.  That's a really great place.  Low riders, drive-by's, and ethnic pride abounds.  Perhaps this is just the poor Mexican culture.  So, since most illegals Mexicans are poor, wouldn't this just compound the situation?\n\nThere are many hispanics that live the mainstream lifestyle.  They're minimally ethnic, never speak Spanish, and get a good job.  This is mainly a matter of class status.  Color/ethnicity is almost irrelevant.  I don't think that anyone is wrong if they are trying to defend the culture in which they live.  And last I heard, cultural bias is not illegal.

YES.\n\nITS BECAUSE WE HATE MEXICANS AND ANY OTHER RACE \nOTHER THAN WHITE.\n\nWE ARE WANNA BE MEXICANS.\n\nLA RAZA RULES AND WE HATE THAT.

I agree. If we were to do that down their, the Mexicans with be hating us. If you live in America, U wave the American flags.

I definitley think we should take strong action to stop this from happening. It won't be too long and we'll be the minority. It's like the US is just saying, hey come here and take our country from us. While your at it, fly only mexican flags and speak only spanish, so us americans will have to learn it. It's such a sensitive subject, but I hear so many mexicans saying they're not being treated fairly or equally, well no kidding, more than half of them are illegal. If they love mexico soo much, then go back!!!! Besides it makes me really uncomfortable when a group of mexican guys stare at my friends and i and talk amongst themselves. what the h e l l are they saying?

They're looking for something to run to the ACLU about.\nWe aren't racist, we just have common sense.\nAnd we are tired of feeding the lazy.

we're trying to kick out mexicans from a country with a latin name & out of states with mexican names. its not that they are a threat, its that they taking advantage of our socialism. remember, socialism was one of the reasons we seceeded from england. the fedgov is out of our control & we dont care. the greatest weapon of the facist is the tollerance of the passifist.

If we open our arms to all poor mexicans we are sending a message... "Please come in and exploit our country, dont worry about our laws because we dont enforce them anyway."  If this happens we will become a third world country.  You cant just take all the poor people from one country and send them here and expect them to have better lives.  Thats just picking up the problem and moving it somewhere else.
