Illegal Immigration Discussion

~ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION~

Many people believe that illegal immigrants add value to society through their labor, while others believe they are taking jobs from the middle class. Some argue that if they were granted citizenship they would drain the nation's resources. Most Americans want greater enforcement of existing laws, but some want to grant illegal immigrants amnesty and others want to criminalize illegal immigration. Meanwhile, President Bush has proposed a guest worker program. Should immigrants be granted amnesty? Should immigration policies be enforced more strictly?

***Amnesty: a period during which offenders are exempt from punishment***

Since Immigration Numbers Have Risen, I've Noticed a Rise In Unemployment Numbers Of U.s Citizens, The Real Reason Immigrants Have Taken Over So Many Jobs Is Because Their Willing To Work For Less, Compared To Their Country Even The Local Ghettos In The U.S Is Pure Paradise....I Feel Bad That People Want To Outlaw Them Coming In Because Obviously They Need Somewhere To Go With a Good Oppritunity To Work & Raise a Famliy With Financial & Educational Potential, At The Same Time I Want The Citzens Of This Country To Have Equal Oppritunity As Well To Prosper...I'm Not Sure What Should Happen, I Stand Currently Undecided xoxo-Nikki-xoxo *Exscuse Misspellings, I Haven't The Time For Corrections*

Well, in all honesty, I don't understand anything to do with humans anymore... Once upon a time we worked together to survive, with no need of money or government...
Then we 'evolved' into this: Greedy and almost heartless. We have rediculous issues wide spread, I mean, racial, sexist, we even pick fights because of religious beliefs. Why? I'm not sure. But when it comes to illegal immigrants, I say they should have just as free a life as every other person here. They might come from another country, but obviously they have the same needs as we do. They're looking for a safe place to go, have enough money to raise a family, and give their family what they need. I'm sure the parents here, and maybe even the younger of us, will understand how important that is - and is it really fair of us to turn them down without giving a chance?
Whatever happened to us anyway? *sigh* I will never understand.

"and is it really fair of us to turn them down without giving a chance?"

^^ I believe it is fair, they are comming Illegally into the U.S.

Are you saying it is ok to do something Illegal?

Personally, I don't think it is ok...but then again, what has this world come to...promote Illegal substainces, Promote Illegal Immigrants, Promote promote promote...that is all The U.S. knows how to do...They have no concept on how to decline anything anymore...Yes, the U.S. is a free country, for those who live here and for those who have visa cards that want to become a United States Citizen, but Illegal Immagrants, come here, work Illegally, and then Leave and make their lives back in their countrys...You think that is Right? I sure don't

You really think other countries will cater to United State Citizens? Not one bit...They don't care if you are their with a passport or not...They will prosicute...as for us Americans what do we do? we welcome them, cater to them, and then let them steal, and rip-off the American public...That would never be tolorated in other countries...NEVER

We as Americans have to stand up for ourselfs.

Hi all,

Joe I dont think it is right that they come in illegally, but it happens. I think thats all i should say on the matter considering I work for the home office...imigration services lol.

Take care, Lis

I believe that whoever want to enter a Country
should do it according to the laws of that Country.

If they break the first law of that Country, coming in illegally, then one don't know what other laws they might break in order to hide the first broken law. It's like a lie, it grows and spreads.

It's a funny how Arnold Schwartznager said "We must protect our counry, we must deport the immigrants back to their own country." In his HEAVY Un-American Austrian accent. lol

It's a pity how Mr. Bush is saying that those poor people are breaking the law (and they are), yet he is spying on Americans against the law.
a violation of the Telecommunication laws, and a clear violation of the Fourth Ammendment.

U.S. Constitution: Fourth Amendment
Fourth Amendment - Search and Seizure

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

The decider: funny clip

Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff said, “Illegal immigration poses an increasing threat to our security and public safety, and hard-hitting interior enforcement will reinforce the strong stance we are taking at our borders."

"hard-hitting interior enforcement will reinforce the strong stance we are taking at our borders."

^^ how in anyway are they keeping an eye on the borders? The biggest problem is they are all coming in through New Mexico. If they are taking such a strong stance, why do we have so many Illegal Immagrants in this country?

Heck, I was listening to the radio the other day, and they where talking about Illegal Immagrants, someone called in and stated, "Hi, I am an Illegal Immigrant." This guy stated he was here Illegally on the radio...are people really that stupid?

Even then, the United States says we have a problem with Illegal Immagrants crossing the Borders...but what do they do when they find an Illegal Immagrant? NOTHING, they let them be, isn't that just a little odd?

I don't know, I guess it is just me...Unless you are all Illegal Immagrants...

Peace, Joe

Yes Sluvious, it is quite odd that we should be discussing Illegal Immigration when we are the ones that took the land from the Indians.
