I agree that illegal aliens are a major problem to our economy, but that they are Bankrupting American well, we are heading that path but is not from illegal aliens but more due to the bad decision regarding our economy with our growing deficit, that has nothing to do with Illegal aliens.

They are bankrupting hospitals, soon prisons. They live 20 to a household, do not pay taxes (usually) and send most of thier money home to Mexico. They are not spending their money here.

It's a giagantic problem and the US is just standing back and watching it happen. Our Schools have to employ 2 teachers - One english speaking and one Spanish speaking. Where's the money going to come from?

9 years ago In Colorado the State was 18% hispanic. It's is not 68%. That should say something.

I live in GA and the migrant workers I have got to know them very well working with their children, sometimes the cir#ances of the way they get into our country is just very sad.

I worked before with a lawyer and that is when I reallized how many of them are abuse here by unscurpuous employeers.

I believe we have a problem with them, I know things about the way they buy their identities.

Who can you blame when most of the manual work in the fields is done by them because not American wants to do it.

Here in GA without them the farming industry would not be able to survive.

Also I have see the way in which the crime rates has gone up when they move into neighborhoods.

Is hard to filter the hard working from the vermin that will always comes attach to them.

Living in CA, I have to agree with Maui. Sorry, but I just can't feel sorry enough for their circumstances to give them a pass for breaking U.S. law as their first official act in this country. Taxpaying citizens are leaving CA to be replaced by non-paying illegals. Do the math and figure out what will (is?) happening to the economy here. Who is going to pay for local/state government and services like fixing the roads and paying the police and firemen?

Somebody has to do something about this if the federal government won't. Maybe these vigilantes will serve as a wakeup call to Bush. Something needs to.


P.S. to Marg6043 - liked you better with longer hair, but the rest is

Amen to that centurion great response, I might add.

As long as we have so many illegals coming in and paying no taxes can only deplete more of the governments resources. I.E., No one pays taxes the government can not pay its debts and that is down right wrong.

Rush limbaugh and Michael Savage have been screaming about this for years. Republicans and Democrats have both sold us down the river.

Two weeks after we conservatives voted in President Bush, he came out with his crazy "amensty" plan......Bush stabbed us in the back on immigration. Both parties have.

Yep, the administration's stance (or lack of one ) on immigration along with the not-quite-so-covert push toward a theocracy by the far right is pushing me a lot farther away from the Republicans.

Doesn't mean I'm being pushed into the arms of the Democrats though...

The government has kept out of this because they enoy the cheap labor. And this even goes to a personal level. How many politicians have we heard about having an illegal as a housmaid, or gardner?
