I can honestly say that all of you that responded negatively don't no sh*t about your country, the only reason your complaining about imigration its because your finally face to face with a problem that you've never had to look in the face before, immigration is no different than the corporations that move oversea's in order to exploit cheap labor, but this time you have to deal with them in your own back yard, it's not about immigration or anthrax, its about the economy, you know it, I know it, the Chinese know it, so why complain about the tip of the iceberg, when its the other 98% we have to worry about.
Well, first let me say that that was one hell of a sentence. You obviously hail from the wonderful public education we enjoy in this country, if you are not still in it. You miss the point of what we say. It is not the immegrents, it is the illegal ones due to the poor security and scared politicians wasting away on the drug called votes.
Immigration is essential because it causes competion among jobs, I live in Cali and have to deal with this all the time, these people came here because of a dream, the fact that you won't give them a chance makes you isolationist, I bet some of you are wearing brand named clothes that where made by some poverty striken foreigner and are still complaining, come of your ego trip,
The obvious does not elude you. Although I would encourage you to pick up a dictionary. Isolationism really seeks to turn sights inward and abstain from world politics. This truely does not always affect immagration.
Peace,
Fox

You're welcome.
But back to the topic, all this ire against illegal immigrants is nothing but a thinly veiled racist diatribe. How many of you who go on and on about this are white middle-class males? Yeah, the horror of things you've had to be burdened with. My heart goes out to you.
Maybe you should just find yourself another planet to live on and leave this one to us non-Americans. Then you can be all by yourselves and not have to worry about crazy foreigners who want to kill you for no reason other than that your government has totally effed up their lives or killed their families in the name of American Superiority. Because here's a newsflash: Nobody other than Americans thinks that the US is the greatest country in the world. Believe it. It's the opposite, pick up a foreign paper or talk to a foreigner.

I'm stoked buddy. You are doing an excellent job of not being here to impress me.

Oh boy, like I have nothing better to do than to invest my time in some #ing game that sucks ass anyway. If you spend your life 1) in a constant escape from the world 2) don't know who Condoleezza Rice is but know all the averages for the clippers for the past 27 years, then I feel sorry for you for wasting your life on the accomplishments of others.

Yes. Disliking a sercurity hazard and criminal activity in our country is such a blatently racist thing to do. I hate the over taxation and foriegn aid too, I MUST HATE THE JEWS TOO!!!!

I don't know what you've done in your life, but I've done quite a bit, and just keep on doing it.

While I agree with the fact that this country sucks in a lot of ways, I also have to say that you should either # or get off the pot.
I absolutely love when Prepubescent dildos like you get on here and spew # all over with very little to say (also having never contributed to this country in the least).
This is not the mud pit asshole so don't treat it as such.
Anyone else who feels it necessary to propagate mudpit antics outside of it will get the same # from me.
I have tolerated this for to long. I did NOT # on you, so kindly keep your vileness out of civil conversation.

Well, for one throwing insults about dictionary usage, you need one as well.
Spelling and word use are very different. I'm the first to admit I can't spell, nor do I care about that.
How do you figure? immegrents
Yes, well pardon me for putting an e instead of an i. Still doesn't change the fact that you misrepresented isolationism.
I don't really care, just don't try to be an @ss all the time.
Trust me, I do not act the ass outside the Mudpit unless provoked. Saying people "don't know #" is provocation. So let's work on not being an ass yourself before you ask others to comply.
So I ask you a question, do you have a social security number and would you like to be looked up as one.
Yes I do, and I don't care.
To bad, that would have been the most important respond.
What does that even mean? Responce you mean? Honestly, do you care about being looked up as a number? Can you say that in a country with over 250 million people that there is a better way to cataloge the population?

Precisely.which is where they belong. OUR borders are what our military SHOULD be defending, not other peoples borders.
So you think that a good defense is all that we need? We do not need the preposition forces that can quickly respond to threats? You would rather just let us wait for something to happen, and then try to mobilize our forces here? Have you any idea how long that takes?
Our allies? What ALLIES? Dont make me laugh. Our "allies" want us gone as much as many of us want them out of there. Our allies have thier own militaries, let them spend thier own money on whatever.
So, places like Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, South Korea, Taiwan, etc.. all want us gone? Then why aren't their governments asking us to leave?
Our foreign policy? Isolationism. We got sucked up into two world wars because we were manipulated OUT of isolatyionism by backdoor deals and the like.
No, we got pulled into the wars when American citizens started getting killed.
Our troops exist to defend American boreders from threats, not keep world peace or protect nonexistant allies. They need to be here patrolling our borders, and not overseas in other countries that have no love nor loyalty to.

Er, this is such a funny thread.
You have FAR more to worry about from your fellow American than you do from any immigrants.
You grow up in the world's most destructive culture of violence, fear, ignorance and racism, and you worry that VISITORS will kill you?
How many mass murderers and serial killers have been illegal immigrants? How many murders have been committed TODAY by people born and bred in the USA?
Worry FAR more about your neighbor than any brown-skinned stranger. Chances are that guy is here to make a new life for him and his family, and has NO thoughts of violence towards you.
There's a better chance that this illegal immigrant will get killed by an AMERICAN than there is that the immigrant will kill one of you, so relax.
YOUR culture is the most violent in the whole world, so try to fix that before you go on a wild goosechase.
How many murders have been committed in the US just today, by average American citizens?
jako
Thats easy for you to say Canadian, Im not disupting the fact your more likely to get killed by an American but leave it to the Canadian (Speccially the ones from Montreal) to turn this into a thread about murder, this thread is about the threat illegal immigration poses in relation to terrorism not "heey arent you afraid an illegal will kill you?", and for a fact there have been several notorius illegal serial killers here in Texas, some use to ride the rails then pick on poor families, anyways.
You are why I feel such deep hatred for pompous foreigners, you my friend are no more wordly than I am and just because your "French Canadian" doesnt make you any more informed. Quit waving the bloody flag of our culture, at least we dont have a province trying to establish its own independence, sure were violent here in the states but were united.
Oh and Im sure your gonna have the perfect response for my rebuttal seeing as you live with "brown neighbors" 24/7 up in toronto, the illegal capital of the world. Oh and that was a joke , I know you canadians sometimes miss those.
Oh and lay off the caps, they make my eyes hurt.

God, Jakomo, yours has to be about the DUMBEST friggin post Ive seen yet on this thread.
In case you havent heard, immigrants of the illegal kind and crime go hand in hand. Like, on the border, for instance, illegals are known to cross, car jack citzens on this side and take thier vehicles. Murder and robbery rates are higher on the border. I lived near the border. Illegals are often involved in drug trafficing, and drug related crime and violence often follows. You ever consider there is a REASON they refuse to cross legally? Maybe the fact they have criminal records in thier homelands that would PREVENT them from coming here legally?
We have a violent society for many reasons. One is we have, through our history, had the habit of opening our borders to the worlds undesirables. This was a penal colony once.
Canada is also a serious concern. not just Mexico. Since our lovely neighbors to the north just LOVE to offer assylum to about anyone, Canada is a destination for terrorists who wanna sneak in. Hell, they catch Middle eatserners sneaking across all the time trying to get into the states, reasons ranging from wanting to work in New York, to other. Im not talking about locking down the mexican border alone, we REALLY need to lock down our northern border. After all, when you have a neighbor that announces theyd give assylum to Saddam Hussein if he showed up, a neighbor who let the Russians use thier airspace to spy on us during the cold war, its a good idea to clamp down on the door and get a little cobwebage on the welcome mat .
You have no clue, seeing how youre not living in a country targeted by alot of people. This is a very real threat. Criminal activity is a part of it. Do a little studying before you make such...statements. [/
The US is also a destination for terrorists who want to sneak in. September the 11th was committed by terrorists who were able to live and work in the US. They were even taught how to fly planes in the US! Americans have also been complaining about terrorists that were in Canada managing to get to the US, and they blame it on the Canadians. But the Canadians also want the terrorists out of their country. If the terrorists that were in Canada manage to get into the US then it is no fault of the Canadians but a fault of the Americans who let them in.
