    I do it legally, they are not.

    Maybe because because I'm a citizen here, sunshine, and they are here illegally. And anyways, I can't just "go anywhere I please." I would be just as illegal if I were to sneak across the border into Mexico or Canada, and subject to the penalties of those countries were I to do so.

    You know, every country has borders, and they have the right and responsibility to secure them. We, as a country, have the absolute right to determine who we let into this country and who we deny entry. We also have the responsibility to our own people to take care of them first. This is not a lack of compassion for people in other countries, but it is up to the Mexican, Costa Rican, or Bolivian governments to take care of their people...not us. I have nothing personally against individual illegals in this country, and I have no doubt that most of them are very good people, but if you're here illegally, you've got to go.

    Every where we want to go in the world is OK because we are Americans. we are spoiled, we think we are better than anyone else. if people come here illegally its because immigration doesn't want to give them visas and passports to be here legally and yet if we want to go to Iraq in the middle of the war than because we are Americans we ave the right. that's is why we are hated to much around the world and that's why this country has to be on the look out for terrorist because we think we are better than the rest of the world!

    I can go anywhere i want in America(barring areas that require a security clearance) because i am a CITIZEN. I need permission form any other nations to go there and they can still tell me where i cant go in there country. its called sovereignty the right of a nation to choose who can or cannot move into or within its borders (among other things).

    It is called obeying the laws of the particular land you live in. Try sneaking into another country and see what happens.

    We travel to other countries, LEGALLY, and then we GO HOME, we don't stay in other countries and milk their system. We also don't rape, murder, kidnap, and steal from the countries we VISIT.

    The KEY factor of my answer is, we VISIT, then come HOME.

  • As long as you have been a good boy or girl, you can go any where they want to, just need to do the paperwork.

    What "they" you are referring to? Anyone can go anywhere they please as long as they do it legally.
