Time Poll: Build Border Fence, Deport Illegals

Yes, one can argue that anyone here, legal or illegal, has a right to protest...

ILLEGALS have no right to protest.

I cannot see how that is even arguable!

[going hot]

They should have their business confiscated, period.

"Mr. Bush, put up this wall."

[jeremiah]

Exactly, prove to me that you have a method to enforce policy, THEN write the policy. The problem is, if they build a fence or wall, they will have no excuse not to deport.

[Tarpon]

I have no problem with legal temporary workers... just not voters. The leftovers will deport themselves.

[repentant_pundit]

Since there is already a short cheap little fence along most of the southern border, it might be better to say "Reinforce the Fence".

This could remind those "on the fence" that it's not really a new idea, but a serious, major reinforcement to block trespassers.

Meanwhile PHXNews reports Hispanic News on April 3 published a new website AxAOL.com for coordinating marches, rallies and/or protests"..."which, they say, will become the vehicle for getting the message out throughout the USA to boycott AOL (owned by Time Warner)...and especially Lou Dobbs over on CNN being described as a "raving populist xenophobe" and "champion zealot bashing "illegal immigration" each night promoting HR 4437 as the only way of dealing with "Broken Borders" to protect the USA."

I dont know what the "average" per capita income for a blue collar (if there is such a thing) worker in Mexico is. However, prolly in the 3 digits per year. Now, these guys get to make that in one day, or one week, across the border in the north.

If I heard that there was a country, particularly bordering mine, where I would be paid three times my annual per day,. I would hop that fence in a second, laws be damned.

My neighborhood will look like La Boca in Buenos Aires?

Highly unlikely.

Yes, build the wall. And make the price for employing illegal aliens cost so much that employers will stop doing it. The illegals' jobs will dry up, and then they will SEND THEMSELVES home at no expense to our government. The jobs left open can be filled by legal immigrants or by Americans.

1 USD = 11.1480 MXN

A dollar goes a long way in Mexico..

ILLEGALS have no right to protest. I cannot see how that is even arguable!

I wish that were correct, and perhaps it is, but someone on the radio the other day was stating there are two kinds of rights afforded by our Constitution. Some apply to everyone in the country, and others only apply to legal citizens. The person was making the case that anyone in the US has a right to protest. Even if that were true, we do not have to stand still for this invasion!!

Hey, see my tagline.

Gosh I live in Fresno and that neighborhood looks better than 90% of southeast Fresno. I don't see any graffiti over everything and very little garbage. I am use to seeing old couches and appliances thrown out on the street.

[going hot]

That's the point. regardless of the size of the fence. I am not in any way in favor of illegal immigration. Just pointing out that those south of the border have a huge, very huge, incentive to go north. It is not simply to "get a better job", it is to get paid daily what they normally make annually.

Putting up a fence will not stop the tide.

The very reason for their coming here, ie, the fact that they can get a job, has to be addressed.

Coming here illegally must be a felony that is backed up every time, and employers who hire them knowingly need to have their pee pee wacked hard, and predictably.

This is in part of what I had posted earlier on http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1609778/posts?q=1&&page=51 #51.

THE IRS VS. THE INS


"The SSA holds no legal authority to levy fines and penalties against either employees who fraudulently obtain a SSN or against employers who repeatedly submit large numbers of wage reports with incorrect SSNs and ; therefore, must rely on the IRS to do so, and audits at the date of the 2002 Center for Immigration Report revealed this rarely happens. The Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996 . . . states that information concerning illegal alien status should be provided to the INS notwithstanding any other law." Revealed was the IRS believed its own regulations guaranteed the confidentiality of tax return information and did not intend to share any returns with the INS."

Mr. Bush, put up this wall.

Funniest thing I have read in a while. lol

[rolling_stone]

You must be wrong, posters on FR have repeatedly told me the US has not become a sewer...unless they of course are in the million dollar plus gate guarded communities..could their mansions have been gained by exploiting illegals?

[going hot]

Eggs ackly.

Yet the powers that be in the Senate are going to "fix things" with their 2006 immigration reform act. What a joke.

most of them, if not the whole lot (barring some noteworthies)care only for their re-election. And on most other facets, they have a valid argument (at least the conservatives, using that word loosely here).

But regards the flood of illegals, only hard core attention and subsequent laws, with teeth, and the willingness to support same, by either party, will successfully address it.

Problem, there are too many interested parties that benefit from the flood, in votes, which translates to power, hence real reform is a long ways off. There simply are not enough totally outraged, vocal voters at this time.

[BookaT]

How many of the 40% are illegals being polled?
