What do you think about the illegals wanting to destroy the borders?

I hope that this new law gets past through, that would make them all felons. Then they could go back to thier countries and sit in jail. They should have arrested all the illegals yesterday and deported them pronto.\n\nI think that they are breaking the law and should be punished. They don't deserve anything special for being where they are not supposed to be. Just because they crossed the border doesn't mean anything. They are not citizens, and they have no rights. \nIt should be like India, a tall razor wire fence, patrolled by the military, and if they jump over, shoot.

I think things have become much more tense since the Immigration March a month ago.  The immigrants see the move to deport illegals as insulting--rightly or wrongly--and the whites are resentful of the demands made on them.  Things will get worse.  But the short answer is that they don't want to go back because they know life will be worse for them if they do.

Are you saying the Illegal Aliens are the ones putting up the walls, so that they don't let any more of them selves in?

If they do, it will be even more of a reason to throw their butts out! Seal the Borders, throw them the hell out!!!!

Our borders should be closed, we are at war we can not afford to take care of these people, we are not even taking care of ours. No one has a reason to teach them English, they can learn to speak English before coming over her to take the test. If I go to a foreign country I don't expect them to take the time to teach me their language, not even realistic. They need to go work at bettering their country just like we are trying to do. How many of these "illegal immigrants" are fighting in our war? They need to go home and fix their country, while we try to fix ours, we do not have what it takes to keep everyone up any more. Close our borders till we are on our feet again...and if you think we are on our feet do some checking around, it won't take you long to see what a shape we are in. You ask a very good question.

Immigrants are great, but these are ILLEGAL ALIENS.  It looks to me like a great opportunity for INS to find all these lawbreakers in one place and initiate arrests.  With our being told which companies HAD to shut down completely or partially, that the Attorney General, Homeland Security, or whomever is responsible for fining companies who do hire illegal aliens, really just have a list now that they can follow. \n\nThe protest offended, but didn't really affect me, or the town in which I live.  The following things bothered me:\na.  these protests were for ILLEGAL ALIENS, NOT regular immigrants.  Their PR machine was great in blurring the lines here.\n\nb.  The Mexican flags were still very prominent.\n\nc.  I was soooo tired of seeing all the posters written in Spanish!!!!!!  And the signs that were translated to English were often very critical of this counry that they claim to love so much.\n\nd.  One of the organizers, last name Rodriguez I think, was on some TV shows the day before.  He made very negative comments about the U.S. in general.  It seemed he was leading up to the one comment that made me wonder about the REAL agenda.....he said, paraphrasing, that the southern part of the U.S. was STOLEN from Mexico, and that the people just wanted to reclaim what was rightfully theirs.  Okay, we did fight and confiscate land way back in our early history......but wasn't just about every country formed by gaining land from somebody??  \n\ne.  The whole thing would have been so much less significant, had our media simply refused to give these demonstrations wall to wall media coverage!!\n\nf.  Do these illegal aliens have the constitutional right to assemble like this?  This is just a question I wondered about.......they are not citizens.\n\ng.  IF these folks are really protesting for rights, better conditions, etc., well, I can't help but be curious as to why they don't just demonstrate in their own countries where conditions must be worse.  Couldn't they use this energy to focus on problems at home?\n\nh.  I can't help but wonder WHEN the LEGAL CITIZENS of the U.S. will step up to the plate, care enough to organize as efficiently as these folks, and take our voices and opinions to the streets, all the way to Washington D.C.\n\nWhew, got some of that off my chest!  I understand the plight of these illegal aliens, and this IS a country of immigrants, but it's also a county of laws.  What do you think would happen to us if thousands of U.S. citizens decided to sneak into Mexico, Colombia, Venzuela, Russia, China, etc., and march on their capitols & make demands for rights while waving American flags and speaking mainly English?  How about trying that in Cuba or Iran?  \n\nWelcome to all immigrants, just do it LEGALLY!  We do have a process in place for that.  Many of us feel that we and our country are being greatly disrespected by the ILLEGAL ALIENS. (I am ever so tired of the term "undocumented workers"..............does that mean that we citizens can drive around freely with no drivers' licenses, and simply be "undocumented drivers"?  Political correctness can get way out of hand.\n\nI just about forgot one other thing that burns me, and that's the so-called Spanish version of our National Anthem!  This is not a translation, the lyrics are totally different.  This is the United States.  We speak English.  A common language is necessary for assimilation.  And our National Anthem should be sung in English!  What's next, translating our Constitution, the Pledge of Allegience, etc??

They are here already.Why would we even try to deport them all.Regardless of whether they broke the "law".That "law" has never been enforced.So why is eveyone screaming for the cops,all of a sudden.(here comes the sob story(They have lived here for years,decades.They have children that were born here.Most have been productive members of this society.They own homes and have no ties to their home countries.It is ridiculous and silly to say,"send them packin".\nNow not everyone had an opinion on this until the marches and the protesting.I would like to know why that pissed so many ppl off.They do have a right to do that.It is in our Constitution.Even if they are not citizens.\nLast.I am a citizen and I don't know where some ppl got their arrogance from.There is racism involved,and if you have ever experienced racism,you would know it doesn't feel good when someone hates you just because of you ethnicity.And it is even more fucked up when they think it's funny.Maybe I expect too much from my fellow? Americans.

We need to strengthen our borders and send them right to the back of the line. We'd love for you to come here, and we'd love for you to make a better life for yourself in our country, but we don't like it when you work illegally (yes, that takes jobs from other people, and if you came here legally you wouldn't have to worry about making so little for so much work), don't pay taxes, and take advantage of our social services. Illegal immigrants are lawbreakers and should be treated as such.

There is absolutely nothing wrong with wanting to protect our culture and our land. There is nothing wrong with wanting our laws enforced, demanding OUR rights as AMERICAN citizens, expecting our leaders to do what is legal and right by and for the American taxpayers. \n\nNot only are we losing rural and agricultural land to development, our waterways are being polluted to the point you can no longer swim or fish in many of them. \n\nDisease is on the rise in the areas illegal immigrants populate the most. Our families are exposed to deadly diseases, some which have NO CURE! \n\nThere is nothing racist about it!! Racist is what you read in the websites of the La Reconquista, MeCha, and La Raza groups. They want to take over the USA and they call us derogatory names that are truly racist. Then they call us racist for wanting our borders closed to illegal freeloaders. Any American who still doesn't see what is going on is either blind or a traitor to their country. When all hell breaks loose on USA soil, they better not cry "I didn't know it was that bad!" We tried to tell them.\n\nrmm81 00 All this running off at the mouth about the Native Americans land being taken away and all that historical stuff is totally irrelevant to todays issue. If bringing all that into the forefront is your way of trying cause a division in the USA, think again!! We are the UNITED States of America and the Native Americans are a PART of that. We will not be divided and no Mexican rhetoric will put any wedge in us. That tactic won't work. We are much to intelligent to fall for that.

Round 'em up and ship 'em out... back to their own countries!\nThey are draining, (no, bankrupting!), our country through our school system; our emergency care facilities, (and hospitals), our already over-crowded highways, (and most driving without insurance, thereby causing our rates to go up with all the payouts!); depressing home values in some areas where they have congregated; not paying into our tax base for wages earned in cash under the table; sending a large portion of what they do earn back to their families in whatever country they're from, (thereby draining our economy and growing theirs!); They're swelling our welfare roles - signing up for and receiving money they haven't paid into or aren't even eligible for; destroying public and private property where they're coming into our country through; demanding rights which they don't have and waving their country's flag in our faces; swelling an already bulging population with more children being born to them, (per family), than the average American family is!\nGEEEEEZ! What else do you need to know? How is it that this is even an issue being debated in this country when it should be a no-brainer? Are their really that many "STUPID" Americans here, or is it possible that the press and the rest of the media are falsly reporting the issues? And this argument about them doing jobs that Americans won't do... BULLSHIT!! There are so many options here that I'm not even going to dignify this propaganda with a response!\nHey... just because these "poor" people want a better life for themselves and their families is NO excuse for running the fenceline into our country illegally! Their poor life is NOT our problem! It's theirs and their country of origin! If they don't like the way their country is being run, "THEY" need to change it!!! Why should "THEY" be rewarded for crossing our borders illegally, instead of following our country's immigration laws and processes that all others must comply with for gaining entry into the U.S. legally? I have heard no one make a valid argument for these illegals... NOT ONE!!!\n\nThere now... I got that off my chest!\n(I feel much better now, thank you!)

Also, look at it this way...if people were to invade your country and demand what belongs to you should belong to them, would you be okay with it?  If so, then open up your southern borders!  If you can't differentiate between LEGAL and ILLEGAL, then you need help in the head.\n\nbtw,\n\nIf you're against illegal immigration, please click on the link below. United we stand, together we'll defeat and deport the illegals!!\n\nhttp://www.illegalimmigrantprotest.com

They have caught many people coming across the Mexican border who are from numerous middle eastern countries as well as North Korea and other countries who wish us harm,a wall would go a long way towards stopping that.Another reason to build the wall is the drug problem,and when you have Mexican police and/or army helping the drug smugglers it kind of becomes a no brainer.I just have one question,why don't all the people who came here for whatever reason and then decided to protest,go back to their countrys,that they love so much and that they hate it here so much and protest THERE and try to change the way things are THERE so they can\nstay with their friends and family where they actually want to be rather then taking it out on us and telling us what dirt bags we are for wanting to protect our borders and maybe lessen the risk of another 9/11.I forgot to mention the gang problem coming across the border also as well as all the other things

I'm against; but i do realize that a small portion should be given amnesty,(Speaking of only thousands, not millions) The rest should be deported back to their native land and some should be given a temporary VISA on probation to see if it would work for them to be citizens, If not, they go back too, But only people who honestly turn themselves in should be given such opportunities.\n\nAn idealist view would be to say " they're all illegal. GET THEM OUT". But in reality, that wouldn't happen.\nI just think we should stop anymore from coming but deal with the people we already have.\n\nSometimes you just have to meet in the middle.

That sounds more like a statement than a question, but here's my response. We have only ourselves to blame for not defending the borders. The illegals are just trying to make a living doing honest work. They are the hardest working people I have ever seen. People like that deserve respect. President Bush has a practical solution in his guest worker program. As a country, we need to demonstrate that we belong to the human race. \n\nIf we want to keep illegal immigrants out, then we have to defend the borders. Not defending the borders is like putting up a Welcome sign. How can we blame desperately poor people for wanting to come here for a better life? We can't. They're hard-working people, not terrorists, for crying out loud.

I say send only the illegals back. Here's something I wrote on my website:\n\nIllegal immigration. A very serious problem right now. We are being invaded, and for some reason we aren't stopping it. These illegal aliens are draining away at all of the public services that WE PAY TAXES FOR! The citizens of the U.S. pay the taxes, whilst these invaders do not. They are like leeches - and we are doing nothing to peel them off.\n\n1. They get free medical care from American hospitals\n2. They get free food from charities!\n\n\nBut, of course, the things that they get are not really free. Maybe for them they are, but someone is paying for them. Someone is paying for these unlawful citizens to abuse the system. The people paying for these undeserving illegal immigrants are the citizens of the United States.\n\nAnother thing - it's absolute idiocy that these invaders are calling the lawful citizens of America racists. Since when does standing up for your country make you a racist? It makes you a patriotic person! It seems that these people are too stupid to understand that. But, in this case, it seems that some mindless sympathizers have fallen for the illegals nonsensical argument. They are actually convinced that they are racists for not supporting these people! But the very people they are supporting are draining away our culture and destroying our economy! It seems that the sympathizers want to kill our country! At the current rate of immigration, the states near the border will become majorly Mexican and will probably start demanding to join a state like Texas or California back into Mexico! If these invaders keep on coming, America will become a fascist state, like Mexico, with a small group of people controlling almost all of the wealth. This is not the principle that the United States was based on. This is not freedom.\n\nIt's absurd that some of the Mexicans believe that this is their country. They say that it has been their homeland for 40,000 years. They say that they are not illegal if it is their land. They tell the law-abiding people to read the history books and find out that it is their land. My history book says that we won Texas and other states from Mexico in a war. It is ours.\n\n\nHere are my solutions to the problem:\n\n1. Deport illegal aliens as soon as they are found.\n2. Build a wall. The Great Wall helped the Chinese against the Mongolians. The wall that we have to build will help us with the criminal invaders that are the Mexican illegal immigrants.\n3. Talk to Vincente Fox and demand that he stops giving his people pamphlets on how to get in the U.S.A. illegally. It is happening, and it is a huge problem.

yes they are  A Bunch of Hypocrites\n\ni think we should adopt some of their immigration border polices !

Maybe do that while we build a very tall, thick cement wall all along the border. We need to slow this invasion down.\n\nThe illegal Mexican immigrants are invading this country trying to take it over. It's encouraged by Mexico and the American businesses who use them for cheap labor. Their loyalty is to Mexico. They proved that during one of the first rallies when they took down the American flag, hung up the Mexican flag, and then hung the American flag upside down underneath it. THAT is how they feel about America. \n\nhttp://michellemalkin.com/archives/004869.htm\n\nThen the people who want to appease them pull out the excuses about how people who are not even alive now, and haven't been for hundreds of years, 'stole' the land from the American Indians. Even American politicians are carrying out this traitorous attack on our sovereignty! If this keeps up, the United States of America will become a 3rd world country, just like Mexico! Mexico's problems are not the fault of Americans, but they are becoming our problems because the Mexicans are invading us and bringing their problems with them.\n\nThe illegals make up about 5 % of the work force. The unemployment rate is about 4.5%. Keep in mind that the unemployment rate does NOT represent everyone who is unemployed. It only counts those who are collecting unemployment. Everyone else's plight is ignored. The unemployment rate if everyone was counted would be tremendous. We do NOT have a shortage of labor, we have a large surplus. The more illegals that come in and take our jobs at minimum wage or less (often less) puts more and more Americans out of a job. Most of these Americans are never counted in the unemployment rate if they do not manage to get unemployment benefits. Unemployment benefits are hard to receive.\n\nIllegals draw welfare by stealing people's social security numbers and identities. That means there are a lot of people being directly hurt by these people as well. Innocent people are having their credit ratings ruined, having IRS problems, and social security problems. If someone who has had their social security number stolen gets married, if either spouse dies or become disabled then they can be denied their benefits. \n\nMy family moved to the US before WWII. Those of my family that didn't make it over got killed by the death camps. Our family assimilated to the American culture. We didn't expect the Americans to change to suit us. The illegal immigrants from Mexico are not civilized like that.\n\nThey not only changed the National Anthem to Spanish, they changed the words. They already burn our flag and hang our flag upside down. They waved the Mexican flag during a lot of their protests. Some schools have stopped hanging the American flag and forbidden students from wearing clothes with any part of the American flag on their clothing all to keep from offending the Mexicans. It's nothing short of an attack of our country, not only by the illegal aliens, but those who seek to appease them. \n\nI am tired of the stereotype that Americans wouldn't do the work that illegals do. Illegals do all kinds of jobs for less than minimum wage which drives the wages down for U.S. citizens. Construction jobs are an example. There are lots of illegals doing construction jobs that Americans used to do because the companies can keep more of the profits if they pay less for the workers. All that does is make companies wealthier and Americans poorer. Illegals are stealing jobs that Americans have done for years. \n\n"Mexico is waging war on the U.S. through mass immigration illegal and legal, through the assertion of Mexican national claims over the U.S., and through the subversion of its laws and sovereignty, all having the common end of bringing the southwestern part of the U.S. under the control of the expanding Mexican nation, and of increasing Mexico’s political and cultural influence over the U.S. as a whole. \n\n \nCu
