Didn't your ancestor's get a chance at a better life by coming to America?  Why can't other humans, yes humans get the same chance?  \n\nI do believe there needs to be a wall or strictor laws for companies who hire illigal immigrants.  \n\nHow about offering a work program where all companies who need low paying labor help, could register in a program at the borders. These companies who profit from the illigal immigrants labor, could shoulder the cost of transportation and fines for permission to work in the United States. Don't you think that the contractors who hire all these illigal immigrants, are making great profits from hiring workers for 2 to 4 dollars an hour and they are actually getting paid by their clients (some of them by our government) more like 10 or more dollars an hour for that same labor. Get upset with these companies who are making a huge profit off the shoulders of these people.  And if some companies say we couldnt afford to pay these people more than pass the cost on to the public.  Then maybe we can actually see the cost of treating hard laborers as humans.\n\n\nWhy are people mad at the illigal immigrants? I would love to see any amount of American's who want to do the hard labor that the illigal labor force is performing at the price that they are being paid. How many Americans would work out in Houston's heat. How many American's would do the pain-staking labor of harvesting our farms? I would love to see all those retarded Americans who say that the illigal immigrants are taking your jobs, to go out to do the harvesting in the fields for one day and then receive the salary that they recieive. How long do you really have to stay in your ignorance. Wake up and smell the coffee!

It doesn't surprise me.  The public discussion is so corrupted by silly partisanship that the truth about immigration is hard to find.  BTW, my wife is from Mexico and she is against illegal immigration.  Larry Kudlow has written a column that does the best job of getting it right so far.

This question pops up from time to time, and the pro illegals don't seem to get it ... we're against ALL illegal immigration from ANYWHERE!  White, black, brown ... doesn't matter ....\n\nWhat's interesting though is that those who are pro illegal immigration really all seem to be pro Hispanic immigration ... I wonder if THEY would be equally happy about an influx of German street gangs?

How Do I Feel About The Protests??\nIll TELL You How I Feel\n\nThe media estimates that almost ONE MILLION ILLEGAL FOREIGN MIGRANTS and their advocates Militantly Marched in the streets of America UNDER THE FLAG OF MEXICO. Their agenda is for our FEDERAL LAWS TO BE IGNORED , and their Criminal Trespass into these sovereign United States to be rewarded with unlimited benefits that include the rights of American Citizenship! \n\nAs these large mobs of foreigners marched proudly UNDER THE FLAG OF A FOREIGN COUNTRY to demand the right to live and prosper in the United States, they claimed that the issue is immigration. But their own actions reveal what is in fact a determined effort to FORCE Americans to ACCEPT LARGE FOREIGN COLONIES in our midst, and to pay handsomely for the privilege of doing so. We have both the RIGHT and the moral MORAL OBLIGATION to DEFEND AMERICA , and JUST SAY NO !!!\n\nIt REALLY BURNS My *** That A Large Portion Of The Latin Community (Citizens And ILLEGAL ALIENS ALIKE) Are MARCHING On Our Cities Carrying The FLAG Of ANOTHER NATION , And DEMANDING The Rights Of AMERICAN Citizens... THAT Is The ICING On The Cake \n\nFolks .. You WANT To Be Treated Like AMERICANS Yet You Will Protest Under A FOREIGN FLAG ... And You Expect ME To RALLY With You??? And SUPPORT Your Cause??? \n\nI Think NOT.. Perhaps You Should Realize Exactly What It Is That You Are Trying To Accomplish... Because To ME It Looks Like An INVASION From A Foreign Army .. \n\nWe cannot allow illegals to remain in this country because it sends the very clear message to anyone from any country: Go ahead and enter the U.S. illegally. Nothing will be done to you. The stupid Americans will pay to feed you, clothe you, educate your kids and pay for your medical care while they themselves are forced to go without because they can't afford health insurance because their tax dollars are paying for you! Ha, Ha! Go ahead and enter the U.S. illegally If you're a terrorist, no problem, go ahead and build your cells, blow up buildings and schools. Nothing will happen because American politicians are too cowardly to repel this invasion and deport the millions of illegals aready here while the illegals rub their lawlessness in our faces.\n\nYou Wish To Become AMERICANS With The RIGHTS Of AMERICANS .. \nYet Many Of You REFUSE To SPEAK My/Our LANGUAGE \nAnd REFUSE To Honor My/Our Flag \nWell I REFUSE To Let YOU Continue To Burden My Pocket \nAnd The Pockets Of My "PROUD TO BE AMERICAN" BROTHERS \nOf ANY DESCENT\n\nYou Call It INTOLERANCE???Call It What YOU Wanna Call It-\nIf It Makes YOU Feel Better-\nCall It RACISM,\nIf It Makes YOU Feel Better\nCall Me A NAZI\nIf It Makes YOU Feel Better\nCall It WHATHEF**KEVERYOU Wanna Call It-\nAs Long As It Makes YOU Feel Better\n\nWhats Gonna Make ME Feel Better???\n\nI Pledge ALLEGIENCE To The FLAG\nOf The UNITED STATES Of AMERICA\n\nI KNOW Im Not A Racist\nI KNOW Im Not A Nazi\nI KNOW Im A PROUD AMERICAN CITIZEN \nAnd A HARDWORKING TAXPAYER\nAnd A MILITARY VETERAN\nAnd NOTHING YOU Call ME Is Gonna Change That\n\nYou DISGRACE My NATION???-\nYou DISGRACE My FLAG???-\nNO SOUP FOR YOU!!!\n\nThe LATIN AMERICAN COMMUNITY Brought This Upon Themselves\n\nPUSH HR 4437 AS IS-NO AMNESTY\n\nDEPORT ALL ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS UPON DISCOVERY\n\nHasta La Vista BAYBEE--LeEmigre Is ON THE WAY

I support immigration, but I believe there should be limits and background checks. Those people who work hard should definitely be legalized, but those who are criminals should be deported immediately.

Hello Vince, I do not (Support Illegal Immigration) because I would be supporting something that is against the laws of the United States. I do though Support Legal Immigrants. If I went to your Country they would probably arrest me & have me De-ported. I cannot & will not (Support An Illegal Act)this should not be mis-understood! The United states Tax Paying Citizen has to pay for the Authorities to House Illegals in our Jails& the Jails have been overcrowded for many years now. I have not heard anyone saying that they won't Support a Legal Immigrant. The American Citizen worked the Fields before the Mexicans did here in america, & now they do not want to pay what the American is really worth. I Love Mexico & it's (Sweet & Innocent People over there. If the Illegals just waited it out to become Citizens than what is the Big Problem.  Good Luck & Take Good Care.

It´s a lovely idea, but doesn´t sound like anything the current US administration would go for.  After all, while hyping the immigration issue in the media and, frankly, whipping up racism, they are also quite happy to turn a blind eye to US businesses using cheap illegal labour. It´s happening in all western countries at the moment.  The media, backed by the government, incites its citizens to be worried about illegal immigration, while the economy actually benefits from the black market economy working with it. I´m in Mexico now on holiday, but staying with family.  It´s a hard place, with a bad atmosphere.  It definitely needs some help, but everyone here says the corruption is so far reaching, there is no hope.  Your idea is nice but too socialist for anyone in today´s political arena and, like Iraq, would require serious investment, commitment and integrity..... never forget it´s all about the money.

I think you already know...but here goes...\n\nI support the illegal immigrants because our immigration laws are messed up, because we have become an exclusive resort. All other countries are inclusive, we discriminate against people due to the amount of money they have...and sadly the economies of other countries are not great.

Bucky, I look back at your history of questions, and while I admire people who passionately stand up for their ideals, plenty of your question headlines themselves are downright racist.\n\nIf you want to be an outspoken proponent for increased law enforcement in the arena of illegal immigration, I've got your back. If you want to make stereotypical representations of everyone who lives south of the border, count me out.

I am very pro-illegal... and I used to not be... but since I moved to Los Angeles, my view of what an illegal immigrant does differs from what I thought it was...\n\n1.  If you see a panhandler or a begger, what do those signs always say?  Vietnam Vet, or something to that effect... and they're very rarely hispanic... Go to any homeless shelter, and tell me the racial demographics of the homeless, the alcoholics and the drug addicted that roam the streets... They are mostly American Citizens, who contribute less than nothing to the US...\n\n2.  They are always working, whether they are selling fruit near a highway entrance, or washing dishes, or picking produce.  When people talk about hispanics, they always say they're taking our jobs... b/c they're willing to work hard for them, while Citizens believe that they are entitled to the jobs just b/c they are citizens...\n\n3.  They drain our welfare system... Believe it our not, it's very hard to receive federal assistance without a SSN... There are a programs to help with the poverty stricken in general.  Also If we were to legalize them, they have to produce financial documents stating that they will NOT receive any form of federal assistance... so if we DON'T want them getting any more federal assistance... legalize them... \n\n4.  They are criminals and bring drugs and gangs into the US... Well people of all color and race do drugs and join gangs... so as long as they are people, there will be some good ones and some bad ones... but to classify an entire race due to the actions of a few, is not fair\n\n5.  They will be a financial strain? NO! B/C they will now pay taxes, and they cannot fake the number of dependants, b/c they all the SSN... Also the estimated 60+ million (Which is the latest and most accurate number to date, but ofcourse it's all guessing... )  would have to PAY to receive Amnesty.  Right now to become a Citizen LEGALLY costs anywhere for 700 - 1000$ for filing ONLY, if you hire a lawyer, it could be MORE... So for example only 30million are actually able to receive amnesty... they will pay lets say 1000 each... that would be 30 billion dollars in revenue... not to mention new jobs created to handle the paperwork, as well as more work for lawyers, which creates more work for paralegals, which creates more schools for paralegals, which creates more jobs for those working at the schools, which creates more jobs for day care centers.. you get my point?\n\nGranted there are problems with Amnesty.. I know there will be problems with Medical care, housing, schools etc.. but since it's only for people who ALREADY are here... HAVE been here for many years... The change in housing and school crowding shouldn't be the biggest issue... The bigger issue is how will we tame the anger and animosity we've created between two classes of peole that have become one... That is the true issue...

Wonderful question.  Unfortunately, you won't get any intelligent answers from the pro-illegals.  They don't have any, so they use the "we were all illegal" crap.

Go home until you can become citizens and pay taxes like the rest of us. I am all for LEGAL IMMIGRATION. I want all to be able to better their lives. Just not without making others have to pay for it.!

EVERY American who supports the rights of illegal immigrants needs to see this.\n\nThink this whole "immigration" issue is about human rights and decent living conditions? THINK AGAIN!!!

I strongly support legall immigration, if you're looking for a better lifestyle, you must work and pay for it. \n\nI disagree with illegal immigration, but I think I understand it, people is desperate and hungry, they do it just to survive, if they go peacefully just to work, they shouldn't be treated like criminals or animals... they must regularize their situation in the US, to live in peace there, that way would be better for both sides.\n\nAnd it is sad to see good people's efforts ruined by illegals that take advantage of the situation and start breaking systematically the law, forming gangs, singing the american national anthem in spanish (when you're in the US, you must respect the national symbols as you want yours to be respected as well) and claiming those territories were ours and we'll take them back (like a form of invasion). These kind of people give good reasons to racist groups to convince good american people to reject every latin they see, and instead of helping their own people, make things even harder.

I agree 100% I am not an immigrant. Illegals and their supporters are trying to divert attention to the fact that THEY shouldn't be complaining. i don't mind hearing an opposing view point from an American . but I do not want to hear negativity from a person that shouldn't be here in the first place.
