Latinos divided on immigration issue

Federal cops arent stopping 2 million people from getting in America illegaly. You want it to stop or not? Put the military on the border.

How do you know that? Do you have any evidence that the military can do that, or is it just wishful thinking?

Wishful thinking is a lot better than something that does not work at all!

How many illegals were arrested and deported last year?

The 14th Amendment was ratified in 1866 to grant citizenship to and protect the civil liberties of recently freed slaves. The amendment subsequently was interpreted to provide citizenship to all children born in the country (see jus soli.) The U.S. government cannot deport a child citizen, but may deport his or her illegal alien family members. Children of families with mixed immigration status are sometimes referred to as anchor babies. Some find this term offensive. Aliens "Permanently Residing Under Color Of Law," or "PRUCOL" is a status which covers a variety of situations, including but not limited to those appealing for and adjustment of status as refugee, or awaiting hearings to decide status and disposition.

The military is used to kill and destroy. This is why most people wouldn't condone leaving the military on the borders.

My take?

Put them on the border. Let the foreigners who are thinking of illegally coming over know what is coming if they try it.

I second that.

Illegal immigration - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Found this interesting.

And what exactly is coming to them?

Are you saying that our military should kill unarmed foreign nationals of countries that is not currently engaged in a war with us?

The military is used to kill and destroy those that we are at war with, and even then only people who are a.) uniformed and armed -or- b.) committing acts of war against us. The last time I checked, neither of these are happening.

The fact that both of you think this is a good idea is not only scary, but gives liberals fodder to stereotype Conservatives as reactionary, mouth breathing troglodytes that can't perceive the consequences of their actions beyond the point of their nose.

There have been several reports of Mexican military firing at American Border Patrols. Of course, the mainstream media hasn't picked up on these for some reason.

Guns can be used to disable and not just kill.

We should declare war on illegal immigration then since we can broadly declare war on terrorism and knock down the doors of any country we want :dunno:

The fact that you will not give a better solution makes you sound like a liberal. Attack attack attack but leave nothing on the table to help the cause.

Simply put... what we are doing now IS NOT WORKING.

Ah... so you just want to wound innocent civilians?

Should we continue the practice of giving medical treatment to our enemies (like we did with uniformed Iraqis), or should we just let the wounded civilians stay on our side of the border?

When have illegal immigrants crossing the border committed terrorist acts on US citizens?

I have given better solutions, you've just haven't paid attention.

Put more Border patrol agents on the border.

Put up a fence or other physical barrier (like the one in Israel).

Increase the technological advantage of the Border Patrol Agents (UAVs, new forms of passports and National ID cards)

Crackdown on people abusing the visa system.

If you think I sound like a liberal, I would suggest that you take your head out of your ass, so you can hear me clearer.

Correct. But you have to admit, it hasn't been working for the past 50 years.

So who has the balls to deport parents and keep the kids, making thousands of welfare babies?

That's the Mexican military. Last time I checked, they're not the ones who were taking to the streets last week, right?

If you think someone crossing into our country illegally is innocent you got serious issues. Maybe you need your head out of your ass so you can think clearer as well?

Lets stick to opinions and less to physical anatomy or personal attacks. Save it for the real terrorists, LOL. But who am I?
