Evidence?  Why would US need evidence for something? They didn't found evedence in Iraq. And there they didn't killed a guy, they killed a nation. They do not care. For their concern all the rest of the world can go to hell as long as they are ok in their stollen land. Check ur history books!

Not that bush is untouchable,Americans need to wake up to their rights in the true sense, exercising one's vote isnt enough, fighting for every crime which takes place in the country is awareness, taking active rights in politics, asking questions demanding answer, this is the way to keep bush,politics,government on heels

Those who normally break laws (not speeding tickets or whatever... but drug laws, weapons laws, petty crime, etc) want to see more rights for criminals.

Because society keeps coming up with new reasons to lock people up.  Used to be, two guys get into a fight, the police show up tell everyone to cool off and go home.  Now they are both locked up and must somehow find money for an attorney to defend them against charges of assault, assault with intent, making terrorist threats, etc.  Used to be we had peace officers, now we have law enforcers.  Completely different mindset.  We are a vindictive people who want to see everyone (except ourselves) punished to the fullest extent, for the most petty of infractions.

Because Most Americans have lost respect for their own country and their own bodies.  They don't respect themselves or anyone else.  They are lazy SOBs who sap money from the gov't because they are too lazy to work and then taxes go up so I get less for what I work for.  I worked in places where people use their food stamps for chips and dip and their cash allowances for beer and cigarettes.  IT'S SICK!  Forget their kids...forget why they even were allowed that money in the first place.  DISRESPECT, LAZINESS, AND SELFISHNESS are all the reasons why America is less fit than probably any other country in the world.  \n\n***Sorry...this is a touchy topic for me, if you can't tell...I've got stories and stories about this too...

Some more than others.  Those here legally have more right than those here illegally, who should have none as they are in the constant commission of a crime

Its just a way for them to separate them selves from society as a whole. To make themselves feel different so they dont have to say they are legal Americans.

IGNORANCE OF THE LAW IS NO EXCUSE\n\n\nthats why they dont teach you, its more profitable to keep you in the dark, and just ticket you or lock you up for things you never even knew were illegal.

Why are the law-abiding American citizens being blamed for "tearing up families"?  We are not the ones leaving children behind, the illegal immigrants are.  They do have a choice - go through the legal process to come here legally like so many generations before them did, or break the law.  They choose to break the law then think they should get special treatment and rewarded for it.

It's definitely a shame when authority figures abuse their power, and it's often difficult to bring justice since they are in certain ways "above the law" though they shouldn't be.\n\nHowever, I'm not quite sure what the question here is. I'm sorry, but it's very hard to follow.

A nation without the respect of law is not a civilized nation\n\nThe illegals are showing this by refusing to follow the laws of the United States concerning immigration or for a lot of our other laws.
