    The word says it all "illegal" immigrants. My parents and other relatives immigrated to the US in the 1960's. They did it legally and suffered through all the paperwork ,BS, and several years that it took to get it done. This country is built on immigrants, but legal immigrants. I saw another poster mention the Native Americans. That just proves that illegal immigrants are not good for the culture that already exists in an area. If they had kicked out the first Europeans that came over illegaly things might be much different.

    It is simply not fair that non-citizens receive social benefits that were initially created for less fortunate citizens of this country. If my taxes help someone to get needed medical care or receive some other social program that helps them build a productive life again it benefits me. But if my money is being used to support people that are not now or ever going to contribute into the system then in my mind thatis wasted money.

    Immigrants and diversity are a great thing. But immigration must be controlled and illegals need to be sent packing until they are willing to re-enter the country thourgh legal means.

    This feelings are extremely strong--- on both sides of the debate.. especially on this forum. Read all the posts under immigration and that should clearly answer your questions. I am an immigrant and am a legal citizen and say-- the illegal crap is just insane. It needs to be brought to an end. Most other countries just won't allow it. Only in USA, where people just walk all over this country due to the open arms that is offered here. Enough is enough. Come here, you are welcome but please come legally.

    Source(s): also, go to the minutemen project website and you will see that supporters for illegal immigration control and supporting the borders are not all "white"-- but of all races and creeds!!!

    This country has a lot bigger problems to worry about than immigration. those that are here already should be able to become citizens if they desire. as for the problem If the u.s companies that have operations in the countries that the illegals are coming from i.e. Mexico would pay these people a decent wage there those people would probably stay there

    Well, legals are fine, and I see the reason why the illegals came here, and it's NOT to 'take over America' or 'Ruin the US' as some say, it's because they need money.

    Also, the US emmigration system can decide not to give someone a Greencard for no reason! Like if they had a bad day, or got into a fight with their spouse/kids which is REALLY unfair.

    there isn't an immigration situation, there is o=how ever an illegal immigration situation that need to be taken care of. you can not let the law be so ignored.

    It's illegal and they shouldn't be here. Some people argue that they work jobs Americans don't want to and I tell them that if there were no illegals employers would simply increase the wages and many Americans would be willing to work those jobs. Either way, they are illegal and it's sad to see so many people who try to get in legally but cant because of all of the illegals.

    wheres paul revere when ya need him the mexicans are coming the mexicans keep coming

    What we’re seeing in the streets is a naked assertion of power by outsiders against the American nation. They demand that we comply with their wishes and submit our immigration policies for their approval, and implicitly threaten violence if their demands are not met. source "American Dhimmitude

    This is precisely the same kind of challenge that aggressive outsiders are making against other parts of the West, including Muslim immigrants in Europe and, in the most extreme form, Palestinians in Israel. Supremacist Muslims have demanded that Europe repudiate Israel, legally prohibit public criticism of Islam, downplay acts of violent Jew-hatred by immigrants, and not deport Muslim illegal aliens. And some Palestinians, of course, demand that Jewish state abolish itself altogether, actually cutting it out of maps of the Middle East (just as illegal-alien marchers in L.A. held signs of North America with the United STATES crossed out

    IF ALL THESE ILLEGALS HAVE SUCH LOW PAYING JOBS. THEN HOW DO THEY GET OFF TO DEMONSTRATE IN LA FLYING THEIR MEXICAN FLAGS?AND OTHER PLACES , MOST NOT ALL DO NOT HAVE THE FIRST IDEA OF WHAT IT MEANS TO BE AMERICAN,,, THEY ARE MAKING A LOT OF MONEY AND THEY DAM SURE ARE SAVING A LOT ,,, BECAUSE THE MEXICANS RENT ONE APT. AND MOVE IN BETWEEN 8 TO 12 PERSONS PER APT...

    WE SEEM TO FORGET THAT MEXICO PUSHED FOR NAFTA AND THEY GOT IT, THEN WHERE ARE ALL THOSE HIGH PAYING JOBS IN MEXICO,, THEIR POLICITAL STRUTCURE IS COORUPT FROM DAY ONE... I DO NOT SEE THEM COMING OUT IN THE TENS OF THOUSANDS TO DEMORSTATE IN MEXICO CITY,,,WHY ,, BECAUSE THEIR NICE PRESIDENT FOX WILL NOT ALLOW IT.

    THERE IS COMING A DAY WHEN ALL AMERICANS WILL SAY ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. AND WE WILL TAKE BACK THE RED,WHITE AND BLUE.
