What has Mexico done for all you illegal aliens lately?

Mexico is smart..they send us those who are "worthless" to Mexico...and keep the productive citizens at home.\n\nThey send out these "runners" and just sit back and rake in a percentage of the money that is sent back.  They don't want these people...so we get the "unwanted".\n\nNo wonder Vicente Fox is so desperate to keep everything going well!  He has certainly been desperate for us to NOT build the fence!

80% of the illegals that are coming across the border are not even Mexicans. They are from Guatamala and El Salvador , Panama, China and so on. Its not the Mexicans that are crossing over the border except for maybe a few. Now 1000's cross everyday with a Visa to go shopping in San Diego and in doing so are paying mega cash into state tax which who is benifiting from? They arent because they are go back home.  Yeah the government in Mexico sucks but things are changing slowly and thats because who ever tries to change things to fast and are noticed those people disappear. A few years back Colossio who was running for President came to Tijuana to speak and since he was wanting to change things for the people he was shot. In your question you said " it will take some Blood , sweat and tears . and thats how we made this country what it is.  Now I ask you Whos blood sweat and tears  made this country? Yours?  Whos blood and sweat do you think made The US?  AMericans?   American is not a race, it is a name given to a country in which every race of the world came together to build the country.

Hell no! Mexico is trying to take over the USA as it is. Look how many are SNEAKING across the borders now, if we were to give them duel citizen ship, that would be a night mare, then who is next? Canada? I say lets keep the USA as she is, the proud, the free and the home of the brave. Not the nation that has open door policy, (Hey everyone we don't care how many come over and take over our nation, just walk right thru the door and its yours for the taking)  come on, whats next? This is our America, our country, not theirs, they already have their own, why give ours up so easily?

Heres ALL The Racism You Want\n\nA close, personal friendship with President George W. Bush has given Mexicos President Vicente Fox the opportunity to purposely allow (or even send) Millions of Criminals, Thugs, Anarchists, and Potential Terrorists to swarm over our southern border in breathtaking numbers. (Nearly half of all illegal aliens currently living in the U.S. came here since Bush became president in 2000.)  \n\n\n\nMexico's President Fox has been unrelenting in his brazen demands on the United States, starting with open borders even before he was elected. He has called for the border to be “a joining line.” His visits to the U.S. have been filled with endless requirements for Mexican citizens illegally in this country — free healthcare, taxpayer-subsidized in-state tuition for illegals at state colleges and universities, guestworker programs and amnesty for all. \n\n                                                             **************************\n\nMexican American Legal Defense Fund founder Mario Obledo stated, “California is going to be a Hispanic state. Anyone who doesn't like it should leave. Every constitutional office in California is going to be held by Hispanics in the next 20 years.  People who don't like such demographic changes “should go back to Europe.” (Incidentally,  Senor  Obledo was also the California Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare under Gov. Jerry Brown.) \n\nMario Obledo, California Coalition of Hispanic Organizations and California State Secretary of Health, Education and Welfare under Governor Jerry Brown, also awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom by President Bill Clinton, "California is going to be a Hispanic state.  Anyone who doesn't like it should leave." \n\n\nObledo Is A Member Of "MEChA" And "LA RAZA"\n\n                                                 ********************\n\nThe newly "ELECTED"mayor, Antonio Villaraigosa, joined the lawbreakers and proclaimed "this bill in Congress is wrong". Señor Villaraigosa said "The only thing illegal is making 11 million illegal aliens felons." Yeah, he Actually said that. People should make no mistake about it: Villaraigosa was "ELECTED" by ILLEGALs VOTING, and HIS Allegiance, along with the rest of these "ELECTED" public officials in California of Mexican ancestry is to Mexico, not California or these United States of America. Villaraigosa has spent a lifetime opposing U.S. immigration laws.\n\nVillaraigosa is A Member Of  "MEChA"  and  " LA RAZA"\n\n                                               *********************\n\nMEChA and the La Raza movement teach that Colorado, California, Arizona, Texas, Utah, New Mexico, Oregon and parts of Washington State make up an area known as "AZTLAN" -- a fictional ancestral homeland of the Aztecs before Europeans arrived in North America. As such, it belongs to the followers of MEChA. These are all areas America should surrender to "La Raza" once enough immigrants, legal or illegal, enter to claim a majority, as in Los Angeles. The current borders of the United States will  be extinguished.\n\n \n\n The Council of La Raza succeeded in having itself added to congressional hearings by Republican House and Senate leaders. And an anonymous senator even gave the Council of La Raza an extra $4 million in earmarked taxpayer money, supposedly for "housing reform," while La Raza continues to lobby the Senate for virtual open borders and amnesty for illegal aliens. \n\n\n\n               http://www.humaneventsonline.com/article.php?id=13863\n\n                      \n\n"We have an aging white America ...

Yes, I do consider it a Mexican invasion.  There are 40 million illegal aliens in the US right now - maybe more and the president says there are 7 or 8 million.  When I lived in Texas I couldn't get health care because of the illegal immigration in that area.  And I couldn't get a job because I don't speak Spanish.  I moved to Tennessee and it's a lot better here.....I am not prejudiced either.....)(

Either some troops on the border or hurry up and beef up the border patrol the way we were promised, and with firearms.  Someone here said that the illegals are not armed - I beg to differ with that statement - we hear all the time about the illegals coming in with coyotes who are often armed, as well as the drug runners who are armed, and at times even the Mexican Military and Mexican Border Patrol, armed, escorting the drug runners over the border into the USA!  I have heard many times about these people firing on the US Border Patrol.  Whether or not your statistics are 100% accurate, I agree that the largest number of illegal immigrants DO cross into the USA from Mexico, either sneaking over the border or overstaying visitor visas.  These, of course, are not ALL Mexicans; however, as there are many from Central American countries coming over this way, as well as terrorists from the Middle East who are learning Spanish and mixing in with the Mexicans and Central Americans, crossing over illegally while pretending to be Mexican.  \n\nAs well, I laugh when I see people on here correcting other people's spelling and grammar and then, in their own posts, they make spelling and/or grammar errors!  Don't correct others here, unless you are 100% CERTAIN that your postings are 100% error-free!

This whole immigration thing is just the flavor of the month.If i move to Mexico, i would make the effort to learn the predominant language of the area. Right now i speak a little Spanish and a little Tagalog. It helps to break down barriers to communication.We do have laws in place dealing with this issue. Both sides of the border have just been working it for mutual benefit. We don't need new laws either enforce the ones that we do have or do away with them. Peace.

I've stopped eating certain fruits, and I don't go to the businesses in certain areas of town like the taco stand nor would I ever eat at one (what the hell is half that crap). I don't eat mexican food very often (most places I go have white folks cooking and serving), so that wouldn't be a problem for me (plus all those damn refried beans are gross). \n\nI also vote and I know who my ticket will be for- the toughest on illegal immigration, promoting English, building a high-tech fence, and making future provisions to ensure that it won't happen again. I've got a good congressman where I live: Tom TANCREDO- he's awesome!!

no it has finally hit a level were it is a huge problem in all areas of the country.\n\n\noh and we are not talking about immigration, its only illegal immigration. legal immigrants are welcome and many are friends of mine, they did it the right way.

Visited the USA recently and I thought I was in Mexico. You guys have problem allright.Mexico is exporting it's poverty to the US. No politician wants to come out and say anything against them fearing their re-election. Stop shopping where you know they are employed. As for them taking US jobs I don't think there is a line up for aspiring gardeners or fruit pickers. Are they taking jobs away from qualified people? Stop supporting  businesses who employ them. Only way!!!!

THANK YOU! \n\nmy fiancee just said this to me yesterday...mexico is supposed to be "sooo bad" but they sure as hell are not hesitant to act like they still live there...\n\na "respected" principal here in houston even had the audacity to fly the mexican flag alongside the texas and united states flag at his high school...the nerve of some people...one would think that american citizens are the criminals and that we are infringing upon on "their rights"...\n\nmexico is profiting from our downfall...

don't blame the Mexicans, blame our govmt. who hasn't done anything in the last 15 yrs about illegal immigration. Blame the banks and business for having "press 1 for espanol", after all this is just the blame game right. our country has changed because of them and the US is the only one to blame. People will be treated the way they allow themselves to be treated, so eventually all illegal immigrants will have amnesty. And Americans will have to stop crying and start doing their own dirty laundry and cutting their own lawns. Too late to do something now, they r here to stay. we should do something to prevent any more form coming NOW, so we don't have this problem again in 10 years.

I hope so, it is time to send some if not all of the ILLEGALS back to where they come from. So if you are legal better take your paperwork to the rally or you might find yourself on a bus to Mexico.

It makes me seriously consider renouncing my citizenship, moving to a foreign country, then comming back across the border as an undocumented immigrant (illegal alien).  They have more rights than we do now.

To Clipz4Life: Actually yes illegals have knocked down buildings.  It was on a little known day known as 09/11/01.  Most of the hijackers were not in the country legally.  \n\nTo answer the question I believe that what we have now is an invasion.  They take services that they aren't paying into thus depriving legal citizens of those services.  They also desecrate our flag and what it stands for and they replace it with the flag of their dysfunctional country.  Flying a foreign flag (and yes Mexico is a foreign country) above the American flag signals an invasion.  Walking over it, spitting on it, and burning it sends a clear signal that those who are here illegally have absolutely no respect for Americans or this great country.  My question is: if your country is superior to America then why are you coming here illegally?  Why not stay where you are?  Notice there aren't hordes of Americans sneaking into Mexico illegally.  Speaks volumes doesn't it?

LOL trying to legislate the entire planet into the United States, are you? Face facts, that was then, this is now, and unless you really really want to face decades of nosebleed taxes to pay for overcrowding, more cops, more pollution, consider your choices wisely, because Mexico's just standing by for the green light...bone up on your spanish...of course, to be fair, it's not just mexico.\nProblem is, the more pre-load there is on your paycheck, \nthat eventually you'll be paying more and getting less in the way of any social services etc. A lot of people have developed an entitlement mentality these days, other people 'owe' them something, kind of like Sid Vicious's 'do they owe us a living'-type attitude. No one 'owes' you anything by virture of ethnicity, family name, or anything.\nMore people need to pull their socks up, and stop expecting handouts, and trying to paint our country as the mega-welfare agency. "Hey, let's go leech off america" isn't a good attitude, in my view. Lots of people just barely scraping by, out there as it is.\n\nAs hospitals etc. get overloaded, jail system gets overloaded, schools get overloaded, their effectiveness diminishes. People will demand that these services be expanded, and that the government pay for it. Well, you're part of the government, so again, vote with great consideration...\n\nI don't think the answer to global poverty is to make the United States a de-facto second-world country. Legal immigration is fine, illegal immigration is not, and as far as the indian thing goes, you're talking distant history, just like mexico losing the US/Mexico war, which they still apparently refuse to acknowledge? There's poverty in america too, and I think there's a general delusion, perpetuated by some rather unethical politicians, that blatant opportunism and cut-throat competition is the answer to the world's problems. Selling america down the river wholesale isn't going to solve any social problems, right any wrongs, and dumping another 100 million or so into the mix with impunity like the Senate apparently sees fit to do won't get the job done, either. \n\nI think it's time for people to dry their eyes, and look at the problems facing america, mexico and other nations in a new light, with an eye towards prevention and reform. You can't change the past. No one can jump in the time machine and go back and re-make the world or our country the way they think it should be. The strongest strategy, to my mind, is to try and improve what we've got. Mexico should be doing the same instead of just basically fleeing the scene of the crime...'blame america' just won't cut it.\nI have nothing against helping less fortunate people either, as long as it's 'hand up', not 'hand-out' etc...
