Everyone who is answering saying that they hate illegal immigrants, not all immigrants, forgets that the US does not allow many people to get the change to be citizens.  There is a quota system where only a certain number of immigrants are admitted.  People are getting mad at the victims of an action, not the action.  And guess what people, you're the ones perpetrating this action.  Write to your congressman and tell them that the quota system of letting in immigrants is wrong!

The government needs to do something about all illegal immigration. I understand that people want to come her for a better life, but when coming here illegally it just makes life here worse. We need to control the immigration so that we can properly accommodate the new people in the United States. The illegals get away with way to much and I think the talks of an 11 year trial period would be great. If you mess up, you go back home. If immigrants want to come over here bad enough than they will follow all the rules. Thus making a better country for all who live here!

Because the Republicans and the Corporations WANT them to come over here, so they can treat them like crap and pay them slave wages.  Otherwise it would have been stopped years ago.  Of course, the republicans are only crapping on themselves when the whole damn government collapses over everybody having to spend all their tax money on people who pay no taxes (aka illegals).

because thats the only thing they can say to someone who disagrees with illegals being here. they know they aren't suppose to be here, and that there is no real excuse for it. So when someone says they want illegals to be deported, then they are a racist.

heak no i wouldn't i can get a better job with benefits at the same price. but anyways, i don't think this is what the question is about. most people would say that immigrants are taking their jobs away but is it true. i think not they are doing jobs that we don't want. do you know have they are treated in the feilds.... there is a saying.... you don't know a person until you been in there shoes. personally i haven't but i have heard stories from my family that had to go through that to get to where they are.

In my experience regarding this issue, its not hatred toward immigrants, simply frustration and a desire for order. I live in California and went to a high school where at least 50% of the student body was 1st generation Americans. What frustrates me is illegal immigrants who want lots of benefits (i.e. schools that speak Spanish, voting privileges, driver's licenses, work permits, health care) and a host of other things at the governments expense.\nI have no problem with immigrants as a group, only illegals who demand the rights of legals.

Only if they can prove they're liberal...  or Communist...  or Marxist...  or are looking for free handouts...  or criminals...  or a terrorist.  Any hard working, well educated individuals who come to this country looking for lower taxes and limited government intervention in their daily lives will be immediately deported.\n\nGo figure.

because  they  are  stupid  and  arent  doing  their   jobs. and  no  we  dont   need  these   immigrants. i  cant  see  how  they   help  our   economy ,  by  living  off  this   goverment  and  sending  their  money  home  to   their   country.  my  self  dont  need  them,  dont  want  them  and  i  am   tired  of  paying  taxes  to   keep  them  up.

Mexico wants to get rid of their poor. They personally don't care where they go just as long as they leave and send money back. These are very uneducated people and a major a drain on the Mexican society as they are on ours. Americans are very misinformed if they think our government, corporate America and small businesses like these people. Mexican serve a purpose and caring about them has nothing to do with it.

Because they would be all for the immigrants and not for the Americans. We need people for the Americans!

According to a recent report on BBC TV it seems that some of them are facing having to leave the country as they do not have 'permanent leave to remain' on any basis other than their work. If the work permit is taken away (as it has apparently been in some cases) they may face deportation. \n\nHowever there are certainly protests being held, and the situation may change as the morality and legality, not to say lack of 'joined-up government', of the politicians' actions is challenged.

There are too many to deport, so someone needs to figure out a way to make these illegal immigrants already here legal so that they can start paying taxes and contributing to the American system of welfare, free healthcare for those how can't pay, etc. Also, a better job needs to be done at the borders to limit more illegal entry.

I don't think the government doesn't want latino here... the government doesn't want any more immigrants in the U.S period! since the influx of immigrants is getting to a point where it's creating problems for the economy of the country as a whole.  Why is that? well, all these people even though they're here in the country illegally, and I'm sure that their sole intention is to do well and to be able to help their family back home and to do better for themselves... however, if things doesn't turn out the way they hope it would be, and they're not getting much support from the government, some of those immigrants will ended up doing anything possible to survive, that being said anything whether good/bad to make a living and I believe that's what the government is trying to end.  It is sad because after all, the U.S is made of immigrants and to be able to stop something that a whole country was built by.. is really not a solution.  I think that although their action is understandable by trying to restrict the influx of immigrants, however... other methods could have been used to help those who sees the U.S as their only way to a better way of living.

Amnesty is the worst decision that could be made by this government, but it isn't surprising, we are in a mess abroad and now at home. We can't even sustain our own people or help them when disasters come along, and our dimwit government thinks we can support foreigners that just hop in and drain the economy more. They caused this mess and they better start cleaning it up .....and fast!

no I'm not, but the government does have to do a better job to filter out the garbage.not every immigrant is a criminal there are really some hard working people out there who do deserve to come into this country but on the other hand there are those who are scum bags and give the rest a bad rep and bring there bad habits along with them.every race of people has there bad apples,so you can;t look at the bad ones and say they are all like that.we need to come up with a better way to separate the good from the bad.I'm all for more security at our broader.i don't want some terrorist sneaking into this country from Mexico and i don't want hard core criminals from Mexico and other Latino country's coming through so easily.my father is from Ecuador and he came here because he was persistent and patient and that's what other immigrants must do as well.
