FRANKLINFZAPPA-(Above)\nILLEGAL ALIENS Pose A Threat To Our National Security In More Ways Than You Think\na:They May Enter Our Country Carrying A COMMUNICABLE DISEASE That May Spread And Become An EPIDEMIC Among Our Citizens-By VIOLATING FEDERAL LAW And Entering ILLEGALLY,They Are Not Subject To The REQUIRED MEDICAL EXAMINATIONS That They MUST PASS In Order To Enter Our Country By Law\nb:They May Enter Our Country While SMUGGLING ILLEGAL DRUGS Or WEAPONS(I Dont Think I Need To Elaborate Any Further On This Subject)\nc:They May ASSIST A TERRORIST Into Our Nation\nThe List Goes ON And ON....I Hope Youre Getting The Idea\nOur LAWS Are In Place For MANY REASONS,Some That You MAY Or MAY HOT Be Aware Of, But The Fact Remains That The LAWS Are In Place To PROTECT Our CITIZENS\nILLEGAL ALIENS in America are here only because they are GUILTY of CRIMINAL VIOLATION  of our FEDERAL LAWS, Jumping our borders and living in a shadowy underground economy. They are morally culpable for shoving aside those who adhere to the law and enter these United States in orderly and Legal Fashion. Since when do criminals and cheaters receive pride of place for the blessings of liberty, over those honestly, earnestly and faithfully seeking to become American citizens? \n\nPresident Bush has called for a reasonable and civil debate over the issues of border security and immigration reform. But the American people understand there can be no responsible immigration reform UNTIL OUR BORDERS ARE SECURE. “Guest worker” amnesty programs ARE NOT a part of border security. Amnesty is not the answer. To grant amnesty to these trespassers is to say "You crossed our borders ILLEGALLY, You BROKE OUR LAWS and now we are REWARDING you with U.S. Citizenship -- Congratulations!" \n\nThis is unacceptable. \n\nNot To Mention The Fact That A Majority Of ILLEGAL ALIENS Live And Work In This Country Wit NO INTENTION Of EVER BECOMING A Naturalized Citizen And Then Send Their Money Back Home To Their Families (Whatever Nation Their Families Live In) Therefore DRAINING The Economy Even Further. \nWhen The US Dollar Leaves The US... Its GONE From The American Economy. \n\nTo Elaborate On What Cherokee Rose Said\nBe Sure You Know All The Reasons They Are HERE First\n\nSent: Wednesday, April 05, 2006 7:35 PM \n\nSubject: VIDEO: HISPANICS ADMIT THEY ARE ENGAGED IN "CIVIL WAR" WITHIN THE UNITED STATES\n\nSource: \nImmigration Watchdog \n\nhttp://www.immigrationwatchdog.com/...\n\nThey openly state they have "The armor, the infantry and the artillery" to wage war here.This video PROVES beyond any doubt, the people marching in our streets under Mexican and other foreign flags, over pending immigration legislation, are engaged in a WAR against our nation.The U.S. Government has failed its duty to protect this land from these invaders; invaders who are openly stating they intend to takeover a portion of this land and carve out their own "Mestizo nation of Aztlan."\n\nClick below to play the video \n\n     http://tinyurl.com/pqzpe \n\nRead The Story-Watch The Video-You Decide\n***********************************\nVERYBADBEAR--GZUCKIER--Get Yer Heads Outta Yer @$$ES\n\nThe COST To DEPORT ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS Would Be A DROP In The BUCKET Compared To The Cost That The ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS Cost The US TAXPAYERS Over The Last 5 Years\nAnd Theyve Been Makin Us PAY THROUGH The NOSE For More Than 25 Years\n\nFor TINKER(Below)\n\nAccording to TNRIP, the financial cost of this foreign invasion to U.S. taxpayers is staggering!

they should not be here in the first place. They should be held and charged for trespassing, sent packing back across the border and leave everything behind and taking their welfare babies with them!\n GOD BLESS AMERICA!

I agree that illegals who come to this country and work should be allowed to stay here.  They do a lot of jobs that people who were born here think they are "too good" to have to do.  Those same Americans who won't do the manual labor job for $5 an hour aren't "too good" to go on welfare.  \n\nWe should exile welfare recipients who could work but choose not to, and let the illegals who want to stay here and make something of themselves stay.

No..they are strict about ILLEGAL immigrants being here and with due reason.

No! No human being is illegal. They came to the USA to find better lives, just like the pilgrims. In my opinion, they should be granted amnesty.

I feel they should be allowed to come here, but they have to do it LEGALLY and LEARN ENGLISH!  Don't come here to mooch off free medical care and everything else we pay taxes for!  Come here LEGALLY, LEARN ENGLISH, and MAKE A LIVING!  It is just a pet peeve of mine!  I have a question about why immigrants WON'T learn english, it is still open for answer!

I think the same as I do about any other illegal aliens - go back home to your own country.  If you want to live here, then come here legally.  And if you want to live here, be ready to get a job and work for your money.  I work for mine, and I am tired of supporting bums that refuse to work.

No. They can go back to their own country and either make it better or live in their own squalor, their choice. They shouldn't come here and reap the benefits Americans have worked for, fought for and died for!!\n\nHa,ha--Go Lelani!!  I'm with you Girl!! Give 'er hell!! I hate illegal trash!!!!\n\nLook, ANGIE you POS!  I came here to answer the question posted here. I just stood up for Lelani. She is RIGHT!! If you can't take the truth then TUFF $h1t!! Illegal means 'against the law'. ILLEGAL aliens are people here without following proper LEGAL procedures. This is not their country. They are still citizens of the country they left. They should not even BE here let alone be reaping benefits at the expense of the taxpayer citizens of this country. I'm all for deportation, no amnesty, penalize anyone who hires them, penalize anyone who houses them, no more free or low cost medical for them, no more free lunches. Without the incentives to come here they won't be risking their lives to cross our border illegally. Without the 'freebies' they won't have much of a reason to stay here. They need to go back to their own country and use their, cough, 'intelligence and strength', cough, to make a decent place to live THERE. No other immigrants think they are 'special' like the Hispanic/Latino bunch that illegallly come here. What makes them think we owe them a D@mN thing?  They aren't our people, they aren't our citizens, they haven't done anything FOR the USA. After coming here they definitely COST more than they are worth. WE would be MUCH better off without them. ..........GO HOME!! LEAVE!!\n\nShorty (below) - Pay attention idiot. Look at how many are 'for' and how many are 'against' illegal immigration on just this one question. You are siding with the losers. Your choice. There are many people from many 'poor' countries that would like to come to the USA. IF and WHEN they can get the funds to do so LEGALLY, they DO. They don't just whine and say 'we're poor and just want to feed our families' and then take it upon themselves to enter our country ILLEGALLY. You can see that many of THOSE people REALLY are starving, their children are dying for lack of nutrition. The USA sends aid to those countries, but we can not take in millions of starving people into our country. People south of our border don't look like they are starving in that way. They don't look emaciated. They aren't 'starving', that's a ball-faced lie! They just want to freeload off AMERICANS. Americans are gathering up weapons and ammunition, they have formed vigilante groups, we are going to take back our country with or without the government blessings. Illegals and their supporters are walking on thin ice. A rebellion is near. Hang around it's coming.

For the first part of your question:  They think it is OK because they are "seeking a better way of life". Rather than stay in their own country and fight for their own rights they would rather sneak into America and demand rights they don't deserve.\n\nSecondly, they don't respect us enough to learn our language.   They are the criminals but they act as if they are to good to stoop to speaking English.\n\nFor diehard0603:  Because we have brains and opinions of our own and should not let American businesses think for us?  I don't know, just a thought.  There should be very stiffer penalties for American business owners caught employing illegal aliens.\n\nFor ria:  We are not lazy.  An American would gladly step into the job left behind by illegal aliens if we deported all their a$$es.  Are you and your family legal?  If so, you should be pi$$ed at the illegal aliens for taking the back door into America when you and your family and other legal immigrants works so hard for legal status.

Not illegally, if they want to be here, they should do it the right way and become a citizen.

i'm all for it. they should have the right to stay in this country. if someone kicks them out, they don't even have a second thought on how many dreams they are ruining. America is the land of opprotunities. and they have the right right to those opprotunited just like the rest of us. long story short, why fix what's not broken?

Outstanding idea.  These people are trespassing on property that they have absolutely no right to be on.  Trespassers really seems to drive home the lack of legality on the issue far better than aliens.  I think this might help get more Americans to realize how much these people are costing them.  It's ok to love your heritage, but it is stupid to think that it is ok that these people are here.

Legal Immigrants, yes they should be here.\nIllegal Aliens should not be here, and they have criminalized themselves, by their own actions.\nIf you do something wrong, don't you have to face the consequences?  In America, we do.

No, because people that hire undocumented workers would not be interested in hiring as they don't pay standard wage's to Illegals. I think that they should be arrested and put in jail where they belong.

Good question.  I'd like to hear some good reasons why they think it is acceptable too. Personally I don't think there is ANY valid argument that will fly for coming here illegally.  I'll check back.  Thanks for asking.

Bad idea.Once they are allowed in they won't leave.\nSend the illegals back and don't let any more in.This is an invasion that the goverment is failing to protect us from.Big business wants them here to be slave laborers at low pay and without benefits.\nDon't listen when they tell you Americans won't do the job.If they could GET the job instead of illegals,they would.And when they say it's too many to send back,send them back the same way they got here.One at a time!\nStop feeling sorry for lawbreakers who want to take over and change us to suit them!
