If that isn't the summary of the exact type of sentiment that is destroying our nation, I don't know what is. I'd take an "illegal" immigrant any day over somebody with your backwards self-centered attitude. An "illegal" immigrant represents the spirit of our nation more than your xenophobic rantings ever could.

Bottom line, when you VIOLATE US immigration laws you are an enemy invader and should be treated as such.
The harshest measures should be taken to prevent our border from being violated. Actually indeed since the federal government REFUSES defend the borders of the USA the citizens can do so...and should do so with deadly force.
I can tell you that if enough criminals crossing the border died doing so the problem would no longer exist.
Mine the entire border and place sharp shooters and drones along it in congested areas.
When this person came across ILLEGALLY he became a criminal and an enemy of the American People, plain and simple.
I can tell you that if millions of gringos came pouring over the mexican border illegally, without a pot to piss in, you can be SURE that the mexican authorities would not be the fools that our officials are. And indeed the mexicans would state that it was a cultural invasion as well as a security and societal threat.
La Raza would approve.

"I wanted to live the American dream"? Since when is this a valid reason to allow people into this country?
Pretty sad that it isn't what the United States is about any more isn't it?
2nd line.

How do they steal jobs when the employer willingly hires them?
Those jobs don't belong to the unemployed US citizen. It isn't their property.

i have empathy for you too, if i lived in the usa i wouldn't be able to afford it either. that doesn't make it right.... you SHOULD have free healthcare, everybody should as far as i'm concerned.
but why should he be taken from his family and relocated? if you moved to australia, fell in love and then had a child but also a devastating accident while supporting your family, would you want to be deported unceremoniously like that? i think not.
"Of jobs created in Texas since 2007, 81 percent were taken by newly arrived immigrant workers (legal and illegal)," says the report from the Center for Immigration Studies, a group that advocates reduced levels of both legal and illegal immigration. The report estimates that about 40 percent of the new jobs were taken by illegal immigrants, while 40 percent were taken by legal immigrants. The vast majority of both groups, legal and illegal, were not American citizens.

You keep going on like what you say actually has an affect on the actual situation. Unless you and a fair number of like minded individuals live up to your user name than all your doing is ranting.
Bottom line is you don't get to dictate bottom lines.

To the victor go the spoils of war.
If the constitution was violated and replaced by tyrannts than their code is law. Just like the victors of the revolutionary war imposed their law, The Constitution, on the 13 states. Any way you slice it it is still law.

The constitution is null and void but they don't want to tell you because you might get angry and start talking about, well you get my drift.

And now I'm also quadriplegic, and nothing but a drain on society, but because of my nationality that's okay? if I had the balls, I'd kill myself in part just for this reason, not to mention this life is hell. but I don't so I'm stuck here in this broken body.
if I were this immigrant (and had a will to live) I would want to stay here as well. Blame the medical industry for keeping people like myself alive to begin with. I sure as hell didn't ask to be here or be kept alive.

That's a pretty long thread already, and I will say that I still haven't heard a half-decent explanation of why the US citizens should be paying the expenses of a foreigner who they didn't even invite for a visit.

There probably isn't any half-decent explanation. The explanation that works for me is that he has family in the US. Some say he can take them with but why can't they keep him here? If his country can accept his family just because they are his family then why can't the US accept him just because he is their family?edit on 28-10-2011 by daskakik because: (no reason given)
