"I'm already here, close the borders!"
"Our culture and way of life"? What exactly, is that? Specifics, please.

If you're trying to tell me America has a singular, unified culture exclusively its own, then I can say with clear and factual certainty, that you, sir, are the one giving a gross display of ignorance.
An argument could certainly be made that the ever-evolving and trading mishmash of cultures that makes up American life is its "culture" but then if so, there is no way that anyone, much less an immigrant group, could ever harm, much less destroy such a cultural paradigm.

Slackerwire, I agree with you up to this point. What American culture? We are a mish-mesh of different cultures..

And yes, I have read the U.S. Constitution. You might want to read Article I, Section 8.

I suppose, though, you buy into the whole tax-free utopia that so many racists, er, conservatives, I mean idiots buy into.

Still love freedom though. I express this by hoping for more immigrants to come on over and enjoy the freedom granted by America.
And yes, I am, as you put it, "a looney nutbag leftist," insomuch that I believe "bipartisanship" with the Good Ol' Pedophiles is a reprehensible concept, and that the vast majority of their supporters are people who don't mind a good lynching whenever some boy gets a little... uppity.
As for your being a conservative or not, you might want to stop parroting every conservative talking point and position right down to not knowing a damned thing about the constitution,
:
, did you know that people from anglophonic countries such as Australia, South Africa, and Ireland are as big of a problem with illegal immigration as latin americans are... but never seem to get deported?

Zoltan,
Question for you though. Why the focus on a city utterly devastated by a natural disaster, and not on the numerous midwestern towns getting free handouts for having an ice storm or tornadoes? How about those same towns receiving your tax dollars to protect their amish popcorn factories and bean festivals from terrorist attacks, while places like LAX, the statue of liberty, and the Alaska pipeline don't get that sort of funding? Am I sensing a sort of double standard here?

Zoltan,
You believe in the "NAFTA superhighway"? You know this rumor has been going around since Clinton sighed that nightmare into law, 16 years ago. In that time, absolutely no infrastructure of any sort has ever been built for it. At this point it's pretty much the purview of people who think that "Red Dawn" is a prophetic documentary.

Zoltan,
Know why national parks have fees to enter? One, to help clean up after dumbasses who think the entire point of Yellowstone is to have ATV races. Two, it's because people similar to yourself, who want less taxes, less taxes, less taxes no matter what, keep getting the funding to these places cut.
Ah so you just want to flood the country with people until we are bursting at the seams? Yea, great idea.
You do know that sick mf'ers lie on both sides of the aisle dont you?
Since you admit to being a nutbag-belongs in a rubber room leftist, do you also support their other beliefs such as socialism?
Little boy I have forgotten more about the Constitution than you could ever hope to know.
Ahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha,
That is one of the funniest, yet most absurd things I have ever read on ATS.
Mexicans, along with other latin americans compose the overwhelming majority of illegal aliens. If you think otherwise, prove it.

Oh, now it's a population problem? I thought it was a cultural problem. Take a few moments, see if you can reposition your straw man goals a little further down the line, hmmm? Population is not an issue. There is a massive amount of land in the United States. And the amazing thing about a developed nation is that if people feel too crowded in one area, it's really easy to find a less crowded area to live. We're not exactly talking about Saudi Arabia, where there are three cities and the rest is barren desert, after all.
I've done to deserve this title is note that your positions on immigration are probably based off of false and racist ideologies.
WHo was talking about numbers? I said as much of a problem. The problem is, after all, the law being broken, and apparently our culture being raped by "immigrants" at large. Aren't the potato-eating papists just as bad as the bean-eating papists?
Speaking of said law. You're aware that, on its own, illegal immigration is only a misdemeanor, right? It's in the same group as running a red light or being drunk in public. Yet it is punished by confiscation of articles, imprisonment without a hearing, followed by expulsion which may or may not land you in the right country, and is guaranteed to leave you high and dry. We don't even do that sort of crap to felony suspects, if you haven't noticed. Kill a guy, and you at least get a lawyer, the chance for parole, and bus fare when you get out. Cross a border and if the Klansmen, er, minutemen don't shoot you, you'll get beaten, robbed, impounded, and mailed off to "somewhere" by the actual government officials.
Unless you're from Europe, conspicuously, then you get warnings in the mail.
