Why are there millions of ILLEGAL immigrants? If there is a procedure to come here legally, why dont they do that?
I ask because I dont know the answer to that question. Enlighten me.

yes some can come here to the states legally, they need to have the correct papers before so and go the process, it is actually easier for them to come here illegally actually. it is sad because so many are stopped and try and again again and again. "SORRY" they walk back to mexico and try again the next day. More cops are killed in LA by illegals then any other group. 60% of prisions on LA county are filled with illegal mexicans.

enough is enough already, we have enough mexicans in this country, put up the wall, the numbers show too many illegals cause too many problems, time to put a stop to it. the bad apples ruined for the others
 
It costs to much money for someone to enter the US.. They have forms to fill out and then they have to hire an attorney to petition the commisson for there legal entry and all this can take up to 2 years plus....id just jump a fence

What do people from overseas typically do?
I mean people from Poland, Ireland, Russia? HOw do they get here?
 
can't we feed mexicans to the poor non-mexicans? there are people starving in this country right now, for fuck's sake. it's so inhumane.

Yea. That could work. A poet wrote something about something like that..... but that was a very long time ago. He said it could solve all kinds of problems. :rolleyes:

There is a process that is set forth by the State Department.. There are lots and lots of document.. Not only that , the backup in the system is unreal as well. Have you ever heard of a fiance visa? An american can marry a foreign national however they first get too visit for 2weeks then they go back and you can apply for a fiance visa while you wait for marriage... they are typically issued for 6 months up to a year.

So people from mexico shouldnt be held to the same expectation?

I agree, when President Fox got mad in 04 about the immigration rules the US has really bowed down to his wishes.. Why I have no idea other than NAFTA and Mexicos ability to host an array of american companies very cheaply in terms of labor and taxes..

you're probably thinking of swift's a modest proposal
 
Wow, I'm a amazed. Alot of ignorant comments. How did "illegal immigrants" get to be only mexican? there are illegal immigrants from all over the place.

i guess its true what they say.. you have to be in their position to understand. its true what chewyxrage says.. their living situation and conditions must be very bad to do what they do to get here. as a mother (and human being, for gods sake), i know that i would do whatever it takes to provide for my family if was living in a poor country-- even if it means having everyone hate me. im not saying its RIGHT.. just saying i have emphathy and i UNDERSTAND how desperate they must feel.
 
Most people who enter the country illegally through the Mexican border aren't Mexicans. FYI. The majority enter Mexico illegally from Central and South America.

ohhhhh i knew this would come up. FYI, as someone that works for the government, let me tell you how much of OUR taxpayers money goes to illegal immigrants. ZERO. im a social worker, ive worked for the government for 4 years, ive granted benefits for the public, and no matter how poor any person is, if they are not here legally, they do not get any public assistance. period. illegal immigrants work too and they pay taxes too, yet they dont even get benefits that they've paid into such as disablility, social security, unemployment, etc. they lose it and u know who gets it? WE DO... and i dont hear anyone complaining about that.

why do people always feign amazement? there is no shortage of ignorant people anywhere, let alone here. however, this forum depends on intentionally abrasive and offensive comments which are thrown about merely for the sake of our own amusement. on the other hand, there are also some stupid motherfuckers who may actually believe the shit they say.

enjoy determining which is which. :heart:

Wait - they go to our schools, they drive on our roads - cause accidents wihout insurance, it costs money to catch them, imprison them, run them through the legal system, deport them.

They utilize our health care, they have babies, get injured, get sick, get pharmacueticals.

WTF?

Illegals are NOT eligible for government help the way you think. They can't get Medicare or housing or any of that shit. Even legal resident aliens are excluded from some programs.

Their kids, we will have to take care of when they are here. Kids are kids and it would be ignorant and evil to deny them care. I don't have a problem with my tax money being spent of health care for children, even if they ARE illegal.

You know what is sad... You guys are letting the immigration issue dictate the next election. You are playing right into the politicians tactics.
With sooooooooooooo many important issues on the table. People will allow their prejudice to dictate the way they vote.

People are more worried about illegals who come here to pick our fruit?
The millions of illegals are helping to slow down the rate at which we lose our manufacturing to Asia by providing the only CHEAP labor left.

People will cast their votes with this immigration issue in their minds. Even if their kids and parents don't have health care and they themselves are drowning in medical bills. Even if they have friends and family in a war zone.

PS: I'm for tight borders and deportation of people who commit crimes.

If you are against giving schooling and medical care to kids who are not at fault for being here. You have some serious fucking issues.


And...

When YOU "utilize our health care, they have babies, get injured, get sick, get" who pays form it? JH1 right? You pay for all your shit right?

What makes you think it is free for illegals?
Healthcare is not free for any citizen in this country. Where does this idea come from that there is a secret socialized health care for illegals?
You people are not in touch with the real issues.

they also work the shitty jobs no one else wants to work. they are exploited and taken advantage of as well. that stuff somehow never makes it on the news though.
 
I don't understand the hatred.
Why do so many people not understand how bad life can be for some people?
On my uncle's ranch in southeast Texas they find bodies all the time. People try to cross and get lost and run out of water and die of dehydration. They risk death, carry everything they own in a grocery bag, all so they can get a minimum wage job and share a 1 bedroom apartment with 6 other people.
If any of you were in their position you would do the same.
Seriously people, fucking read something, get some fucking empathy.

Some us know the real story of these people's lives. And the Gov KNOWS how valuable to the economy they are. Yet the information is manipulated to make it an issue in the election... A way to distract voters from some of the more important issues that will affect us all.

You took my example of the costs of illegals being in the country and turned into me hating babies and children and wanting to deny them health care and education?

Not really suprising given your recent 'anti-hate' this and that bullshit. You think everyone hates everything now?

Look, what I stated was simple - someone said that there wasn't a taxpayer cost for illegals being here. I pointed out there clearly was. I never said I'd let a child die by denying them healthcare. That's beyond ridiculous.

I pay for my healthcare through insurance and when the bill shows up for extranious costs, I pay the bill. I am in the systme and I contribute.

Illegals are not and do not. They get billed they throw it away. They don't have insurance, they don't have anything to loose. To compare the two is sillyness. I never said there was secret socialized health care - but the fact is they show up to our hospitals with babys that need to be birthed and other life threatening afflictions that we will not and should not refuse to treat. And they don't pay the bills. Someone absorbes that cost. The taxpayers of the united states do. Come back with some valid points. :rolleyes:

Good, then you realize that it's a crime to come into the country illegally - so you should be immediately deported.

:)
 
JH1,


If you didn't buy so much cocaine making it profitable for cartels and organized crime to corrupt government officials and ruin these countries south of the border... Maybe these people wouldn't all be trying to come here so badly to escape the war and poverty cause by the drug trade.

Every time JH1 snorts a line of cocaine, another illegal alien hops the fence.


I hope you realize this is all your fault.

As a tax payer. If some of the money I already pay was being used to pay for a mother to give birth or a person to get help in an Emergency room... I would not care... Matter of fact, I would be quite happy about it.
Legal or not, a human is a human. These people put much more into the economy than they take out. As far as I'm concerned, I HOPE they are all healthy so they can work they fields and I can keep eating produce grown in America.


Before you worry about illegals and how much they might cost us when they visits a hospital or go to school. Maybe you should worry about WHY it cost so much to provide health care in the first place or how some of the other gazillions of dollars are wasted and dumped into bullshit we don't need.

If all of the illegals in America were deported TODAY and the borders shut to keep any more from coming in. YOUR TAXES WILL NOT GET LOWER. Several American companies will go out of business and you WILL find yourself spending more money on day-to-day things like lettuce and tomato.
 
Hell I don't blame them. When you think about it, all of us are just fucking lucky to have been born in a decent country. You'd be trying to get your ass out of there too if you could.

Once again you twisted this into me saying I didn't think that humans deserved to be treated like humans.

My point was simple. Someone said there wasn't a cost to taxpayers, I said there was.

They were wrong I was right. nanaannana boo boo.

then if you think all humans should be treated equal and you have no problem with it, then you wouldnt have brought up the education anc healthcare factor in the first place.

Holy shit you have a complete logical disconnect.

Why even bother and argue with that complete lack of logic....


You said there was no cost, there is. That's all I fucking said. GET IT? Dumbass.


I.E. if I thik we should save lives in our hospitals regardless of nationality, then I have no right to bring up the fact that it costs money to do so?

WTF? Get on with ur bad self.
 
They broke the law coming here, enough said, Deport them all, at gunpoint if need be. Fuck them. Enough is enough. They buy cars here in FL, then steal tags from similar vehicles. get in wrecks with their uninsured vehicle. Who eats that cost in the long run? Their standard grocery list is a case of beer, 20lb can of beans, and an 8 pack of toilet paper. The money they make s not spent in the US so they are not tax revenue neutral as some say. They ship that money home.They live 20 to an apartment, with no furniture except sleeping bags on the floor, but have their legal cousin lease it for them.

Arrest those who hire them, rent to them, provide any service to them. They will leave in droves. Emergency rooms locally are clogged with indigent illegals who don't ever pay for the treatment they receive.

People say don't deport them until they commit a crime. They committed a crime by crossing the border illegally. My grandparents all followed procedure and the law to get here, why can't they. You live in a border state and you get tired of dealing with the increased crime rates, the burden upon local resources and the housing markets.

If you are here illegally, get the fuck out. If not, soon the citizenry will take the law into its own hands.

How dare you sir. How dare you make logical arguements about the costs of illegal aliens in this country!!!!!!

You want their babies dead, don't you???!?!?!?? YOU SICK FUCK YOU.

Who's "You guys"?? Who said they were voting based on the immigration issue alone? I certainly didnt, in fact, I didnt even reveal my stance on the issue - but you people are using your own prejudice to assume you know my stance. Did you not read the OP where i said Im asking the question. I'm curious why the procedures are not followed to legally entering our country. Why are so many people 'forced' to come here illegally? perhaps the fact that they do means we need to loosen up on the requirements for them to be here legally/that's my opinion anyway.

Don't lie. You want their babies dead as well.

Sick-O.
 
Oh what a nasty thread.


I live in No County San Diego... they are a real problem here. I could give you dozens of social and economic reasons why they are really causing problems but it wouldnt matter.

people have their minds made up and no amount of logic or statisitics is going to change that.

All I can say .. is the next time you need the emergency room and it ends up closing down because of all the illegals who refuse to pay.. dont bitch. (because California is esteimated to lose ~80 hospitals and care centers in the next year because of this). We are losing one on El cajon .. specifically because of this problem.. and of course the news does a big story.. interviewing all the Mexicans bitching about how they will have nowhere to go now DUH!!! try fucking paying and maybe you'd have a hospital.

You can cry all you want about the cost of medicine.. but that is a SEPARATE issue.. these illegals STILL need to pay their bills. Im paying 14k per year in premiums .. wanna explain why I still ahve to pay thousands a year in co pays and deductibles and they get this shit for free??

they DONT pay income tax .. but THEY CAN AND THEY KNOW IT. All the have to do is acquire a taxpayer ID which most of them know about and file with the IRS.. but do they? hell no...

They dont use birth control.. so they have tons of kids clogging up the school system they dont pay for. Their kids all do horribly in school because they dont speak English and their parents make no effort to help them with their homework even when its provided in spanish... Even when they do manage to acquire English skills they still struggle for cultural reasons that teachers simply are not at fault for.

The School across the street is 95% Hispanic and losing part of its federal funding because of NCLB. The teachers are blamed for the kids failure.. as if its their fault the parents are more worried about getting their kids into menial labor jobs than into their homework... they CONSTANTLY pull their kids out of school. Every bullshit Mexican holiday, family reunion, etc.. the kids are pulled for days if not weeks. Oh but somehow thats the schools fault.

Olive elementary had such a problem they had to put up a sign out front (In Spanish of course) that reads "You MUST bring your kids to school every day"... oh ya these folks REALLY care about education.

Im SO glad so many of you live with this every day.. are surrounded by it like I am and have real world experience to back up your bleeding heart opinions.

Hey I have an idea .. if you all think they are such a benefit to our economy.. maybe YOU can tutor their children, pay their health insurance and deductibles.. !!!

Maybe YOU can come tell the family behind me (Who currently have THREE families living in a 3 bedroom condo) that the Illegal living in their garage can stay with YOU instead of the garange in front of my house where he blares that shitty Mexican music all fucking day.

Or you can tell the family living upstairs from them.. who have their fully grown children (None of whom speak English) and another family living with them thay are coming to stay with you for a while..

Because the peices of fucking trash and all their low class gang banger fuckhead buddies out drinking in our parking lot every fucking weekend is getting old.

By the way.. let em use your parking spot.. because Im tired of having mine taken.. along with every spot on the street by peice of shit broncos and mini vans.

So until you have to deal with all the illegal alien bullshit that REALLY happens and had your quality of life fucking RUINED because of them, do us all who do.. a favor, shut the fuck up and call INS next time you see em.

Ye reality sucks.. I have a radar for that crap.

I wasnt even gonna post on this thread until all the bleeding heart moonbats whose only interaction with an ilegal is the occasional gardner showing up or the guy takng their nacho order starting talking about how valuable they are to us or how they arent causing problems.. naive fucks.
 
Legal immigration is a very hard, very expensive, very lengthy process as the US doesn't want 'foreigners' to come over and 'take their jobs'

Even getting a temporary work visa is a lot harder post 9-11, you clamped down on the nurses, IT professionals and teachers but somehow forgot to secure the southern border.

I wonder how easy it is to get into other countries to work?

becoming a legal US citizen is NOT easy. It's honestly really like winning the lottery. To get citizenship has become alot more difficult the last 10-15 years. That's why so many come here illegally now.

I was very anti illegal immigrants for awhile..and i still am somewhat, but i can't blame them for coming here. My parents are direct immigrants and they came here for better opportunities...just like many of our grandfathers/grandmothers did in the early 1900's for those of irish/german/italian heritage. In a ravaged country, you have zero chance of making it.

Now the problem i have with immigration is making sure the RIGHT people come into the country. No criminals, or people that will not contribute to society. That is the issue that is up in there the air. If it's a mexican that'll bust their ass on a hard job that no one else wants to do, then so be it.

There's so much space in america, so who really cares. as long as they don't overrun the city and become the majority and not contribute to the american culture.

i have a great deal of respect for immigrants that come and can asimulate(sp?) the american culture while still keeping their own heritage somewhat
 
Far as taking jobs..that's always been just a ridiculous statement. South park episode summed that one up.

If you were born in this country and you're that far behind the curve to have to work menial jobs, you deserve to get your job taken by someone who's going to bust their ass for a shitty job. fuck...working fast food, construction or doing landscaping or picking strawberrys. that's the kind of jobs illegals get

Now, the health care issue i def have a prob with. as well as the overpopulation in certain areas of illegals (miami, southern cal), but that was created a long time ago by really shitty immigration policies.
