Aren't the " illegals " hurting those who seek to enter the us legally?

Very good points that you made. To answer your question, yes they ARE hurting the immigrants who are seeking to enter legally.

I really liked the comment which you made without the law there is only chaos...so very true!

Once illegal always a border crossing criminal and a threat to the USA.... Sorry, no second chances, there are many good people trying to come to this country and the criminals need to go home. Think about it, the reason the Mexican Government is trying so hard to help people get here is that the (vast mjority) of those here illegally are undesirable in their own country whether because of proven criminal background or criminal affiliation(with or without a record).

The thing no one is talking about is that if all of the illegals were deported it would cause a shortage of workers. Instead of using this as an excuse to keep the illegals here, it should be a way of allowing more of the people who want to come here legally to enter the country. Deport illegals and speed up the immigration process.

my wife is filipina, and she is in the US the legal way, but it took 2 years and $6000, and i was just told the they raised the prices to deter the illegals to become legal.

in my opinion, that just hurts the people who want to do everything legal, and makes the illegal one worse, becuase they dont have the money to get legal, so they will stay illegal,

immigration needs to start by securing our borders, putting a big wall between us and mexico. once you stop illegals from entering, then you can work on getting the illegals out.

Good points. I really feel for anyone who did the right thing, waited and went through all the chores of becoming an American citizen legally, only to see millions of illegals make a mockery of their patience, money and effort.

You're right. How would you feel about your new country's ethics if you went about the difficult process of LEGAL immigration and illegals got citizenship before you?

I think in part yes, it's unfair for the people who are trying to get here legally.But also, I personally know that aside from being extremely hard (in a lot of places) to get a visa, it takes SO long when and IF people do get one. Our government won't let foreigners in that easily. So, I sympathize with the "illegals" also. Somme are in dire need of money,and their families in their countries depend on them for that money.

It isnt just hurting those who seek to enter legally...it's hurting the tax payers :(

Hey: Will the last Mexican in Mexico PLEASE remember to turn out the lights on your way out? Think globally, act locally. Reduce dependence on foreign oil.

No Amnesty Ever!
