Question for Illegals or Illegal supporters?
485486
1)They are putting attention on themselves for some reason.. I think they are the largest heritage is Mexican. They just do that stuff because they don't think completely.. It isn't like us white folk go around with our English heritage; because we fought for our independence from them.. Not all Mexicans see it as being an American at all, and just are here for money.\n2)It keeps a lot of prices in agriculture, cleaning services and landscaping cheap.\n3)A lot of them drop out of school, or are in very low level classes; so they are not with the people that will need education in their lives.\n4-I forgot to add that not all Mexicans are like this.. just a lot of the ones doing their whole heritage thing.. and I did not know they were going around burning our flag.. And they are diffidently not the only ones that do.. But the ones with 2 generations legal, fit completely well into society

perfect american:  I'm just taking a few minutes in here to say a great big THANK YOU to all the people like you who are on here educating all of us and spreading the truth about the devastation that illegal immigration is causing to the USA! I know you get a lot of backlash from the ignorants who support illegal immigration and even the so-called "poor" illegal immigrants (who, BTW, obviously aren't all so POOR if they are actually on the internet with a computer, in the first place) and yet you keep on here relentlessly stating the facts and telling it like it is. So, THANK YOU, and keep up the good work and don't let any of the illegals and illegal supporters cause you to back down.

this is the smartest question i think you have ever asked thank you,its about time some questions were directed towards mexico as far as their people are concerned !  is mexico preparing at all do they care? have they even said if some of you want to come back we are taking measures to help you? they should prepare and they should have said from the start if this happens we are prepared to help them, but as far as i know they have not , and have only demanded from us too. they take no responsibility in this mess\n\nif you were part of the illegals sent back and they had nothing for you and didn't give a rats ass would you still love mexico? or would your opinion of mexico change?  i really appreciate this question i know your getting flack for it as with all your questions sorry lol , but this one is a good one !  again as far as i know mexico would not care tell me have you heard anything has this changed  your views  on mexico any ?  if i had bad feelings towards mexico before its worse now, i was thinking about this the other day and thought wow if that happened they wouldnt care why do these people defend mexico?  and i didnt see a lot of posts  from  mexicans with any views on this strange

I don't hate anyone, and not the illegals either.  I can honestly say that I never had a problem with them until they began to protest for rights for something that was against the law....This came across as crazy to me....If someone is breaking the law, they are breaking the law.  That's it.

What do you do when one of your family member is/was an illegal? I could not allow myself to turn my back to them. Please! I love the USA but family is family.\nP.S: Your posts bother me. http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AjTIu7xafN6ffIFbDrTexa_sy6IX?qid=20060616085947AAQnfzd\n\nWho says that? Do you honestly think that Cubans can't be illegals?  Well they can. I am ashamed for you. Of all people YOU should know how bad it is in other places. Cuba? Yeah, many people have even died trying to escape the horrors like Fidel Castro - dictator of Cuba. Do you feel proud of yourself when saying "Build enough prisons to hold them and incarcerate them. When their time is up: deprt them." "NAH! HANG 'EM HIGH! - Your idea seems the most logical." \n\nYou are a disgrace.

You hit the nail on the head. It is amazing, however, to still see some of the imbeciles on here not being able to tell the difference between LEGAL and ILLEGAL!\n\nAnyway, the illegals come here knowing full well that what they're doing is wrong, but they pretend that they're not breaking the law. When we complain, they call us "racist" because we want them to follow the law, just like we're required to do. So if we don't look out for their interests, we're bad... but who's looking out for us? Ever heard an illegal complain because they're affecting our quality of life? Yet, we're supposed to feel bad on their behalf?

JD - At first, I didn't agree with you entirely on here, but over time, your views make more and more sense. You seem so dedicated to this cause, and so I hope you are doing more than just posting on this website. You have got the facts and figures and the reasoning. I hope you are managing to get this info into the government where it can make a difference. Thank you for persisting in your stance on this topic. Your dedication gives me hope that the rest of the USA will wake up and smell the coffee regarding illegal immigration, before it's too late.

poor girl!! People say that this is a illegal immigration issue not a racist issue, but people make it a racist issue when they make comments like "All Mexicans are stealing lazy a$$es" how can you debate with those kind of comments and say it's just a illegal immigration issue?I call BULL SH*T. and agree with you!!

Are you American?  If not, your opinion is like an arsehole we all have one.  If you are NOT American, how would you feel if the did it to yours?  \n\nI will not ever support the illegal aliens of any country that is trying to get a free ride into my country.  You shouldn't either!!!

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 have noticed that when confronted with the cold truth of  illegal immigration many people do in fact call others racist. And more often than not it is supporters of illegals that are the first to call an American who wants illegal immigration to stop a racist. I have also seen people refer to the minutemen as vigilantes when they(the minutemen) have shown no such proclivity.  An Arizona member of the A.C.L.U said she has not seen any evidence that the minutemen have broken any laws or infringed any civil liberties.

You missed an oportunity to speak on a point that americans need to be aware of. If you really think that Illegals and the people who support them are fools (as I do) then tell us why and give us ideas.

Is Hispanic friends supposed to mean illegal immigrant friends?  I have a bunch of Hispanic friends. However, most Hispanics are here legally and most Hispanics are opposed to illegal immigration.\n\nIf I have any illegal immigrant friends, I am unaware of it.  \n\nI support legalization of qualified illegal immigrants who have real roots here.  I don't think it is fair to those who have been waiting.  However, after so many years of not enforcing the law and letting them get their roots so deep into this country, I would just feel bad deporting them.  \n\nI am not so sure about the way the guest worker program for future immigrants is shaping up on the Senate floor however.  They are billed by Bush as temporary, but the Senate is saying they (the ones yet to come under an increase in legal immigration rate) can become permanent residents with a path to citizenship.  I don't think that is good for anyone here, including most particularly the Hispanics or others performing low wage jobs.  There will be a perpetual 'race to the bottom' for wage levels, in my opinion.

So are you asking whether we support immigration laws?\n\nImmigration laws need to be updated. With new immigration patterns, governments need to change their definations of what constitutes as "legal" and "illegal." Along with government policy come laws that are based on greed, racism and fear. When people say that they are for immigration and against illegal immigration, what we should really be looking at is why we are against illegal immigration. We should further analyze our laws and question where policies seem biased and discriminative, just as where they seem just and equal.  We need to analyze the complete picture.. rather than the negatives.

No, because between what they have stolen from me and what I've given, I think that I have given enough.\nDon't use the innocent children act on me either, these people did not care one bit about what they took from my children, or anyone elses children that they continue to steal from.\nAking for help is one thing, but taking advantage is another.\nI was raised that you work hard, and earn what you recieve, and as a citizen in the state of Texas, I have helped to feed, clothe, and provide electric for fans to cool their homes that have no electric service.  I did this because I thought it was the right thing to do, but as I discovered, helping people that will not help themselves, and will only run and cowar, from their home land is a mistake.\nCall me racist, you have a right to your opinion, and I have a right to mine.  And, from many of the posts that I have seen, it appears to be mostly supporters of illegal aliens that are exhibiting the most racism, against Americans of all colors.\nIllegal aliens are criminals, and thieves that steal their way across the border, with only one goal in mind, stealing from Americans what they have earned.\nAll illegal immigrants are criminals, and there are more than just Mexicans crossing the Texas border, I assure you.\nIllegal Immigration is a false term.  These are illegal aliens, if they were immigrants they would not have breached our borders, and broken how many laws in their country, and ours.  They are traitors to their own nations by abandoning it, and not fighting for thier own rights, like Americans have been doing for more than 200 years.  I do not want these kinds of people in my homeland.  Nor, does any American that I know, encluding my American Mexican husband, that would never put any nation before America.\nIn Pennysilvania there is a politican that is actually showing some back bone on this issue, because his citizen's demanded it.  Illegal immigrants maybe able to defraud the American people through votes, but we have not counted on that system for years.\nWe take it straight to the politicians, because we know that a boycott won't even raise an eyebrow, it just angers the people.\n  \nAngel Hatley\nMother of Steven Hatley

H-LL NO, They broke the law coming here illegally....If they came here legal I would offer help...\nThe illegals work, don't pay taxes, or support the country, their money goes back to Mexico....some FAMILIES I am already supporting on welfare, (so they can send the money they make back to Mexico)... I don't want them in my house too....If they are here legal, I would offer to help them get on their feet......Some people say we need them, that is an excuse, we have to many homeless, jobless people here that are AMERICAN, most would do any kind of work to improve their lives & get food in their bellies....I would not help any ILLEGAL people, I have & will help the hungry & donate to homeless shelters...people say this country was founded by immigrants, LEGAL ONE'S.......Peace & God Bless
