As for the illegals, get the **** out or get legal that is as simple as it can be.
See on ya May 1st, bitches!
Keep making those racist comments and this is what your gonna be:

I couldn't resist. Yes. people are acting ridiculous. IMHO we should have super secure borders and ports, but not because of immigrants. We need secure borders because all soverign nations do, not to mention we started a sh*t storm in the ME.
There are always those out there who need to make the "other" the enemy in order to feel like their life is worth something. As Americans I think we lose sight of the fact that in the scheme of the world, all of us are uber-Rich. The real enemies of the average American is corporate america.

I guess that comes from the fact that the town I live in is now referred to as "Little Mexico" by everyone we know in surrounding towns ... and it seems like 90% of the Mexican people I see around here don't care at all to follow the rules, directions, or regulations at all. If you press them to do any of these things, they "play dumb" or "no hablo ingles".
I do not understand why we should bend over backwards to accomodate these people the way we do. I'm quite sure if I move to Mexico, no one's going to kill themselves to learn English to pacify me.
so yeah, I guess my perspective is colored by my surroundings ...

Jamie, have you ever taken the time to get to know any of these people. I find that when I feel threatened or uncomfortable with someone, if I take a moment or two to talk to them I usually feel different.
I have this internal predjudice against people from the South, yet evertime I talk to one face to face I end up really liking them. We all have predjudices, but fighting that predjudice is a necessary self-maintenance IMHO.

One time on a ride along with a department, we stopped an illegal Mexican for having no license plates. Come up to the driver and his first words were "no habla ingles!". License and registration please. "No habla ingles!". Do you want to go to jail? "Ok ok I speak english!". He got arrested, found out he was infact illegal and ended up notifying border patrol
I'll play dumber .....Why are they throwing so much of a fit about being asked to leave a country that they didn't legally come in to in the first place? It makes no sense to me at all. You go to country and enter illegally....then bitch and moan about being asked to leave or to do it the right way and complain even more about not being treated equally? ...I just find it hilarious that a group of illegal aliens can have an organized march in a major city about our immigration laws and all not get boarded on a bus and shipped out of town....they actually get to go back home......

I agree that they need to follow the laws we have or get out, and I heard from another forum I go to that about 80 illegals were removed from southern CT last week.

American Citizens commit these same crimes as well, are you saying that the crime is more offensive when perpetrated by an illegal immigrant?

no, I'm saying that in our situation we saw those kind of things from immigrants (mexicans) about 10-1 times more than with anyone else.

I wonder... imagine if the Native Americans started sexing it up like hot rabbits and grew a nice population and decided they wanted their homeland back. Decided that they didn't want illegals on their land. What would your opinion be then?
Oh let me take a stab at that one... "it's nothing to do with me, it's not something I had any control over... or it happened before my time". Boo hoo. The racism emminating from some of you is appauling.

There are indians that try to get more land for theie reservations and some that try to get recognized to get more land, but if they wanted to remove all non indians from the US it would be a fight.
How did the countries we have now get their land, people fought for it, so if we treated the illegals like that, we be at war, killing them.

Hmmm Spanish/Euroepean come to America, Indians take no claim to land. Only after thinking "hmmmmm" the white man is taking my land to they start trying to claim their land. It's somewhat their own fault. Do I think it's messed up? Yes, is the argument valid in this dissussion or have any weight? NO
