A respectfull question to anti-illegal immigration supporters.?

I am a permanent resident of the United States since 2003, but i lived in Mexico for 25 years, i know several people (mexicans) that lived in this country illegaly since i was a child, and personally participated in political meetings for the conservative party in Mexico concerning Mexican elections, local presidents and governors, i am actually the grandchild of a former ex-mayor in my hometown in Mexico and honestly never heard about a comunist, socialist organization in Mexico, we know about comunism because we heard it from teachers in school, they teach you about cuba, che guevara and many other like Marx , Engels and other clowns like that, but they teach us that comunism is bad and retrograde, i recently heard Jim Gilchrist talking about a problem in the university of Columbia and he talked about the mexicans as Comunist and Socialist, they also showed a hispanic guy holding to a red flag as if he was trying to show his radicalism for socialism, please take my word, mexicans are not comunist and we are certainly not trying to steal your country, i also heard from Gilchrist that mexicans were trying to "recover " the land that were stolen from them, that is not true, most mexicans come here to work strictly, not to recover anything, actually most mexicans do not care about that and more likely they dont know anything about the subject, now he also talked about agressions from mexicans in the rally, you should understand that yelling to a crowd of people and telling them to go home is not the way to solve the problem since the simple fact of telling them to go home is an agresion, there are other ways to solve this problem and i personally like the way tom tancredo does, yes he is racist, yes he don not like hispanics but hey he does what he has to do trough the authorities he has to use not personally go and tell them hey ... go!!! that is not smart and most lawyers can tell you that, well i apreciate you read this and i expect intelligent and respectfull answers as i believe i did, i apologize if i hurted somebody's feelings. God Bless America.

Update:

Yes , not knowing who is who is a BIG PROBLEM then give them driver licenses and you will know who they are get rid of the bad ones and keep the good ones, problem solved and everybody is happy, UNLESS OFF COURSE THERE IS SOMETHING ELSE HIDING BEHIND YOUR DESIRE OF RULE OF LAW.

Update 2:

To the one with the philipine wife: Yes there is a way but please investigate if is the same easy to come here if you are from the philipines as if you come from mexico, no is not, there is a huge difference between your case and the mexican tramit, its not like you did it, its 100 times more dificult for mexicans.

Update 3:

To bud: Personally i would feel terrible and god bless your hearth, honestly i will pray for you, but, obviously the kind of mexican you talk bout is the gang type, those are not immigrants, they come here to commit crime and spoil it for everybody else, they do not migrate here, they come here to establish and those guy do not represent the majority of illegals, and then my friend after two sad cases in your family dont you think you have to solve the problem from the inside of your family first? i mean two of your daugthers with criminals? maybe the problem is in home not out there think about it those sneaks that caused trouble to your family could be alien criminals or could be black criminals or white criminals that does not mean all illegals are bad.

Update 4:

Bud, he raped her, and then he married her, i do not think there any law in the US that will give an illegal immigrant the right to marry the women he raped, maybe she wanted to marry him.

Update 5:

Mike, YES WELFARE is a big problem i agree with you if immigrants are taking that welfare money that is not right because this money should be in us citizens hands but there is a fact we should not forget, YOU CAN NOT GET WELFARE WITHOUT A SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER, i respect your concern but please do not let them lie to you a illegal immigrant can not get welfare,now they do have the horrible habit of not paying the medicall bills that is true, but welfare is not the issue.

Update 6:

ronald: For the same reason illegal people from ireland and other countrys have had rights in this country when the colonies came and invaded and formed this great country, for that same reasons.

Update 7:

By the way , those 400 million or billion or whateaver you say its bullsh... that is not true, what kind of taxes are you talking about its like an illegal alien gets in the country and then you get charged a 1000 dollars for him NO not true, and i am sorry for so much raping and killing but you forgot to count with the black americans killinh whites and whites killing blacks and other whites and hispanics getign killed by haters, man, you have no point, if you are resented because somebody killed your son thats too bad for everyone but you can not say that the majority of illegals are bad a vicious thats racist, do not share your pain.its yours!!!!!

Update 8:

DID I MENTION MOST HISPANICS LEGAL OR ILLEGALS HATE AND REJECT 100% ALL KIND OF GANG AND CRIMINAL ACT ? WANT TO FINISH THAT PROBLEM, GET YOUR BALLS AND GET INTO EAST LA OR ANY OTHER GANG LATINO BARRIO AND YELL THEM WHAT YOU YELL THOSE POOR WORKERS AND BLAME THEM FOR KILLINGS AND RAPINGS LETS SEE IF YOU HAVE THE SAME KIND OF ANSWER.

Update 9:

Ronald: People deserve things just for the fact they are sons and daughters of GOD , god gave them a work visa when he decided to give them the courage to work like slaves for 12 hours a day for their familys, by the way, do you believe those killers of the family of the other posters are working 12 hours a day? no right , so donot generalize. its not fair. Maybe this post went way too far but i am glad some of you people came by and showed your unreasonable hate against a certain race , what , if a basset hound dog bites you one day , next day you will start locking up all basset hounds in the country, come on people, THINK!!

Update 10:

TO NO AMNESTY:Yes the borders need to get secured, but not for the workers but for the terrorist i understand that the illegal workers will feel that but are you against insecurity or against workers because you talk about NO AMNESTY but you are also against a worker program, so.... what are you pro about? maybe you want no hispanics at all, or maybe you hate everything that smells like latino i dont know, i agree with most of your words but not with your hate NOW BUDDY WHAT ABOUT THE CANADA BORDER? No problem with that? , that one is really open and why are you not OFFENDED about that border.

Update 11:

NO BUD YOU ERASED IT BECAUSE YOU KNOW I SAID THE TRUTH AND YOU DID NOT LIKE IT, I UNDERSTAND IT AND I AM CERTAINLY NOT TRYING TO IGNORE YOU BUT YOU CAN NOT BLAME ALL OF THEM , SPECIALLY IN YOUR CASE, EVEN IN THIS SITUATIONS WE HAVE TO BE CONCIOUS ABOUT WHAT COMES FROM OUR LACK OF EDUCATION AND WHAT IT COMES FROM THE FATALITY

Update 12:

I WONT ADD MORE DETAILS FROM NOW ON, THIS QUESTION HAS GONE WAY TOO FAR AND THERE ARE MORE THAN SIMPLE WORDS INVOLVING THIS THEME, I WILL NOT RESPOND ANYMORE COMMENTS FOR RESPECT TO PEOPLE LIKE BUD , I DISAGREE BUT THAT KIND OF PAIN DESERVE MY SILENCE AND MY PRAYERS, I HOPE GOD FILL YOUR HEARTH WITH LOVE AND FAITH.

    This is what happens when people come here illegally. You have NO idea who they are. Are they here for crime or work? Are they communist or capitalist? Are they planning to overthrow the gov't or not?

    THAT's why we don't need illegals, because you never know who's in your country. Law abiding people would follow the laws and not enter illegally. However, those trying to cause harm would simply sneak over the border illegally.

    We need better borders so that everyone here legally would feel safer and so we can keep those who may be harmful out.

    Simple really, you NEED to know the people coming into your country and the only way is thru LEGAL immigration! My wife is from the Philippines so it CAN be done you know!!

    :So you agree with-"The vast majority of the public support measures to improve the enforcement of our existing immigration laws, and overwhelmingly oppose granting amnesty to illegal aliens. It was this popular support that spurred the last House to push through a solid attempt for immigration enforcement in 2005. Unfortunately, under the new House leadership, I am not optimistic that Congress will take the necessary action to secure our borders. I am far more concerned that the amnesty plans the Senate and President have been pushing these last few years will be dangerous in these coming months.

    The Senate passed immigration legislation in the 109th Congress that attempted to combine an amnesty unprecedented in size, a new guest worker program, several other provisions that will continue to undermine any effort to have a secure immigration system, with new promises to enforce the new rules. History is our guide, and it is clear from the lessons of the past that amnesty is the wrong path to choose. It is the worst kind of public policy to reward illegal behavior - and as we have seen in the years since Congress provided blanket amnesty to illegal aliens in the 1980's - doing so simply encourages more illegal behavior.

    I supported the House legislation, which among other things called for mandatory verification of employees' legal status, increased penalties for alien smuggling, authorized expanded cooperation on enforcing immigration law between local and federal law enforcement, and prevented frivolous lawsuits by illegal aliens. I was proud that the House prudently sought policy that followed the strategy of attrition. I believe that we must regain control of our dangerously porous borders, and we must cut off the employment magnet that drives illegal immigration.

    Those who break our immigration laws - whether they are illegal aliens or unscrupulous employers - must be held accountable. Rest assured that I will continue to work for the enactment of an immigration enforcement bill that will provide verifiably secure. Conversely, I am steadfastly opposed to any form of amnesty, and I will work to prevent the passage of any legislation that would provide a path to citizenship to illegal aliens, or any expansion of guest worker programs."

    Well we can at least see eye to eye on a few things.

    Heres where I have an issue with your opinions.."YOU CAN NOT GET WELFARE WITHOUT A SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER,"

    You know as well as I do that illegal immigrants can receive benefits on behalf of American born children..This includes: free medical, free school, free food, and housing vouchers when needed. Even energy assistance programs are available. This is not a lie....

    I can agree. I'm sure there is some racist stereotypes. I have worked with mexicans. No they don't seem determined to take back california. I don't support our government making immigration laws and being really lax on them. I wouldn't know about socialism in Mexico. It is unfortunate that life sucks in Mexico and that people need to run to this country to make a decent living. I don't support giving away social services to people who aren't citizens. I don't have problems with people who come here legally, work hard and become productive citizens. My problem is with illegal immigrants, the people who hire them and the government who looks the other way.

    Remember, the first Americans came here illegally and stole land from the Native Americans. And "white" Americans have been doing this for hundreds of years. It's thus hypocritical of them to treat others who come to the US "illegally" with the contempt they do.

    Since you didn't ask a question, I'll ask one to you. Why should anyone in this country illegally deserve anything from this Country?

    If you are here illegally, you are a criminal and you are costing me valuable dollars out of my pocket. To see you here illegally and flying the Mexican flag and demanding I pay your medical and education is galling beyond tolerable. Check the facts and then maybe you can understand why some people are pushed to aggressive behavior.

    Actually, America needs more educated people and hard workers like yourself. I also commend you on your English, which many illegals are reluctant to learn.

    I personally don't have a problem with illegal immigration, but I do have a problem with illegal immigration combined with a welfare state. It is not right that American people should be burdened with an illegal's welfare.

    You saw my story. I deleted it because you felt like I caused the problem myself instead of the illegals who came causing it. So by this I know you are only ranting, and not listening.

    If I was Mexican I would work to make my country better. The natural resources in Mexico are fantastic. I would stay in my homeland and make the best of it. Money isn't everything.

    Build the fence, stop the invasion, deport the illegals, imprison the people who employ them, problem solved.
