There is a way to stop it but Americans are too lazy to do it.  Look at how effective the united protests by the Mexicans were?  Americans have a propensity to just sit on their butts and complain without taking any action.  If millions gathered throughout the U.S. to protest illegal immigration, our politicians would take notice and do something fast.  Remember, there is an election coming, and politicians care more about votes than anything else.

Illegal immigration.  The vast majority of Americans want it to stop but the politicians aren't doing anything to stop it.

It is not that simple, I think the way to go about keeping the illegals from coming here is to jail the people that hire them. Make them pay such a fine that is no longer worth it to pay substandard wage and Americans will fill those jobs in a heartbeat.

Stop spending so much on crap like the rare species of maggot, stop teaching absintenance only programs, stop affirmative action, do something about illegal immigrants (i'm all for immigrants AS LONG AS THEY ARE LEGAL), stop sticking America into other countries business.\n\nFlint is retarded.\n\nNo, I know white trash.  I am not white trash because I am white.  White trash is trash because they are racist and ignorant.  Nobody could mistake me for either one.\n\nTeachers shouldn't have to do more than they already do.  It is the parents responsibility for their children's psychological behavior.  Parent's need to stop whinning that teachers need to do it.  It is the parent's job.\n\nI think welfare system should change too.  They should stp paying for every crack whore that has a baby.  Everyone else that is trying to get work and support themselves I commend you.  And you shouldn't have to pay it back like a loan.  That is why you pay taxes.\n\nAnd I agree with Prince and Rascal.

A better question would be: What can we do to stop the bleeding heart liberals from taking even more of my hard earned money!  Simple answer: Stop voting for them!  \n\nNO MORE TAXES! LOWER MY TAXES!!! Just being a minority does not entitly you to my hard earned money!\n\nThere is NO RIGHT to shelter, food, or health care.  You have to earn those, not demand them from others who are willing to work!

Fair or unfair, it is logistically impossible.  What we need to do if we want to stop illegal immigration is start throwing CEO's and Rich people who hire them to work for their companies, take care of their kids or mow their lawns.  Only then will you reduce the incentive for people to come here for a better life.  Cut off the jobs, you will cut off most of the desire to come here.

Americans like illegal things very much, let them stay illegal. That way if something happens police will have some work to do. \n\nLegal workers have everything documented and there is less work to find. More illegals the better.

The magic number is whatever our legal population is right now. How to stop it... Close the border immediately. Remove all illegals.\n\nPlain and simple.

Report this to the Customs & Border Enforcement division of the Department of Homeland Security (what used to be the INS).  There are agents in just about every federal building in the country.  This is especially true if these people are making a profit on trafficking and/or placing the immigrants in dangerous conditions.  \nhttp://www.cbp.gov/

What can we do to stop illegals?\n1. Actually enforce the immigration laws currently on the books.\n\n2. Imprison the landlords, employers and anyone giving any assistance to illegals.\n\n3. Place automated cameras and remote operated fully automatic weapons on the border.\n\n4. Deny citizenship to children of illegal aliens.\n\n5. Set up an actual hotline for people to report the presence of suspected illegal aliens in the workplace or neighborhood.\n\n6. Adopt English as the official national language making it easier to identify people that are not citizens. Even if you must use broken English, although humorous at times, it is understandable and you will get better at it if you try. If you can't speak English you obviously are not a citizen, where is your visa?\n\n7. Adopt English only for all government paperwork to help eliminate the filing for benefits by foreign nationals with the one exception of visa applications.\n\nWhy are they harming us?\n1. They want a better life. We can't blame them for that, but it is not our job to support them nor should we look the other way from the crime of illegal entry. If they wish to have the same rights as our citizens, they can apply for citizenship after they have met all of the other legal requirements.\n\nHow are they harming us?\n1. By draining billions of our tax dollars with free medical care, requiring the hiring of Spanish language teachers due to the fact that they refuse to learn English, welfare benefits for children of illegals.\n\n2. 15-20 or more people living in a single family residence creates unsanitary living conditions and lowers the values of all of the neighboring properties. If you want to live in these kinds of filthy conditions, you can do that in your own country; do not drag our neighborhoods down.\n\n3. Over crowding in the schools is making it so that our own citizens cannot get a decent education.\n\n4. Refusing to immigrate legally bypasses the required health screen and allows previously eradicated diseases back into the country.\n\n5. Illegals accepting jobs at below minimum wage suppresses the wages of our own citizens.\n\n6. Using stolen SSN and other US identification wreaks havoc for taxpayers by totally screwing up the tax bracket they are currently in, forcing people to waste hundreds of hours to even attempt to get this straightened our with the IRS.\n\n7. Illegals often support themselves with drug smuggling bringing the drugs across the border with them.

Try this : expose the whole story to the news media stating the fact that the police wouldn't care about it, meanwhile have your daughter to carry pepper sprayer or gas gun to protect herself, then keep reporting it to the police until they respond.  Since the illegals have no legal documents to identify who they are and where they live, to manage of getting their clear pictures for identification is crucial, I know it's hard, but it's worth to try, if you want justice to serve and your daughter be protected!

We are on the same page. People are making this a witch hunt and are forgetting who allowed this situation to get out of control. They are ignoring the ones that have benefited from exploiting cheap labor and making tons of money from poverty stricken illegals. Shame on American patriots!!

Stop eating junk food. Boycott Mexican owned or Mexican staffed restaurants.  Then, it will stop.

this is wrong and should be stoped . now why are all the illegals in this country???if they were not hired to work here they would be someother place. think about it and think who is responsible for the influx of illegals. its not the mexicans. talk to your big rich companies and the ones who hire illegals.

You always have to read inbetween the lines when it comes to politics. The Government wants to blame illegal immigration on American citizens and not the Administration who are totally responsible for losing control over this issue. It is all a strategy for coming elections.

You should call your Federal, State & local politicians and let them know that if they can't do their jobs.  Americans will vote them out of office and put someone in their place that can to the job!\n\nAs for your neighbor next door.  Change your locks so his anchor babies can't get in.  Give them a rude awakening that the FREE RIDES are over and that they'll be going on a deportation vacation.
