Why was my question removed?

All I asked is for the Legal immigrants to stand up with the citizens and not stick with illegals simply because some of them come from the same country. I stated that I would be angry if I did things right and watched people do things illegally and get away with it.

I said nothing derogatory or offensive, I said no curse words. I see many questions and answers that are much more offensive than that. My question was not offensive at all.

It is smarter to stick by people for a reason, not just because they are like you or from your country. All citizens here don't stick by each other just because they have physical similarities. We stick by what we feel is right. I simply asked the immigrants who are legal to do the same and not stand by illegals just because they may be from the same place.

How does this deem a question to be removed?

Also the question did not even post, so no one would have reported it.

    I have been saying the same thing. I think people that came here legally after years of paying and studying should be the ones really p*ssed. Then after all they did to get here legally now to see the government fighting so hard to get people here that broke the law.

    I think it's Yahoo's position to delete most questions that are not to the left poltically. I have asked several questions under immigration with not only supporting links with factual documentation, but personal experience as I have arrested over 1500 illegals and all were removed by Yahoo for reasons that made absolutely no sense at all.........

    Yeah I know exactly where you are comin from. A couple of weeks ago I asked a very modest question and i got 4 answers. The question was " is there anyone out there besides myself who sometimes feel like it's really 2008?" next thing I know, My question was removed without notification.

    I thought I saw it. However, sometimes Yahoo pulls them themselves without posting one. I protested one saying I had violated no guidelines. They simply replied that that was why they hadn't taken any points.

    It is their playing field, and they do make the rules. Their only limit is if they censor so much it is no longer worth while to come on the site, really.

    Because sometimes people remove questions because they perceive that the question is negative or racist or because people simply did not like it. I suppose that the true nature of the question is all relative in the eyes of the beholder.

    You are right, it is not right for illegal immigrants to have the same rights as legal immigrants.Someone probably didn't like your quetion and removed it because they are pro-illegal.

    Metro, as you hear people say, "life isn't fair." In this case, it is fair. If you are too weak to hold your own opinions you don't deserve to have one.

    I guess it depends on who is working the shift, LOL

    It was removed becuase it stated facts that are anti-truth.

    Because you are trying to turn more people against illegal immigrants, and that is unfair.
