Immigrants

I agree illegal migration has to be controlled, but why would that have to happen before even considering amnesty.

If it wasn't worth it they wouldn't come. But there is a legal way to do it. Millions went through Ellis Island, the mexicans can go through one in Arizona/New Mexico/Texas. There is no excuse for doing it illegal, for the penalty is you'll never have a green card or Citizenship. That the way it is. IMO The plite of there family is of no consiquence to us. There need to seek a better life in this country does not negate the legal system and bend it to there will? This is our country not theres. To many people caving for the new superminority which is the majorityminority now. No body wants to offend them and wants to court there vote by being lienient with them. I will not stand for that.

So you are willing to let felons out of prison for "good behavior", but you are not willing to give hard working people that have been here for years and probably love this country as much as You and I a break.

I don't know what procedures are involved in the propsed amnesty programs , but if such a program incorporates a process to get the ones who have been here a while ,and working , into citizenship , I might agree to it .
I have lived most of my life with and neighbors with Hispanics who for the most part are legal , and have a few acquaintances who have emigrated to the US in the proper manner . I think all should become legal or go back home .

An american in prison paid his dept....

...A trespasing immigrant weither hard working(which would be to his own personal gain)has refused illegally to pay such a dept...

... Appears he loves the money not the country. For if prospects were better some where else, where would he be?...

In my eyes a Pedophile/Murderer will never pay his debt.


I can guarantee you that if given the opprotunity to change to legal status. many illegal immigrants would happily pay any fine imposed on them.


I have yet to meet a person doing back breaking labor for under minimum wage that is here because he is inundated with money. He loves this country because it gives him opportunity, gives him freedom, gives him a future.

You mean we let them live! Who died and left you judge? The law dictates who gets out.

The fine is going through the process. Not bypass it? Seems to me they already had been given the opportunity to do so but choose to forgoe the legal way and crossed anyway. Two wrongs don't make a right but three rights make a left. They choose not to pay the fine when they crossed the border.

Really the ones i talk to are? The majority in my town are from Guatamala. Took them on average five months to work there way through Mexico before even trying to cross the boarder. Why would a married male with at least three kids move by himself five thousand miles to look for work? A few reasons come to mind. 1. They can. 2. There's money to be made, Cash when they get hear. 3. There is a network of friends and family waiting. 4. Free health care. 5. Damn good exchange rate sending money back to there family. 6. Be willing to pay for a 4X8 space on the floor so you can get by with only a hundred bucks a month rent. 7. Be able to afford to drive nice new cars while your here. And all those things he gets when he gets here are at the expence of who? You sure are giving of other peoples money? How much have you given? The opportunities are for Legal Citizens not trespassers!

How much have you given?
