Does it take mind-reading to think that they are here {illegally} and not in their homelands {where, according to existing laws is where they belong} for a reason? Does it take mind-reading to assume that those reasons may just have to do with living conditions in their own lands? If they had it so good in their own lands, why would they risk coming to this country {Illegally}, risk breaking the law for a job that {as we've heard ad nauseum}no American would want to do? It must be that what they are leaving is less desirable. That is merely deductive reasoning. Sorry if you can't see that {or hyperbole in my remarks--everything okay?}
Evidently, you subscribe to mind-reading quite well. However, I didn't hear any of this:
"{America, help us." Didn't hearit.
"Our own countries stink" Didn't hear
"They are rotten!" Didn't hear.
"They are full of lousy government!" Didn't hear.
"They are full of hopeless conditions!" Didn't hear.
"They are places with no futures!"Didn't hear.
"Our own countries don't have enough food to feed us, jobs to occupy us,l hospitals to take care of us, schools to educate us."Didn't hear any of this.
"They are cesspools reeking from wasted lives because those lives lack opportunity!" Didn't hear .
Help us America!Help us! Our own leaders, our own lands, our own homes are not worth trusting, are not waorth staying on, are not worth living in. Please help us".
I did not hear any of this. As a matter of fact, you might think about visiting Mexico as you don't know what you are talking about. I have lived on the border for the last 20 years and have never seen a starving Mexican. They like the USA because of all the freebies they get. They cross to have their babies here so they can get free health care and then go back home with WIC, FOOD STAMPS. They love American welfare. They pass by their own hospitals to come to American hospitals (FREE). Mexicans have always had a high drop-out rate in schools. Nothing new here.
That is a really, really disingenuous post texas.
You didn't hear what the poster wrote huh? Are you all seeing or what?
Oh, but you DID hear that they love the U.S. welfare, hospitals and schools. Sounds like you didn't hear some things, but added a couple things you know are true to the list.
You seem to be talking about those who come and go (I could be wrong, but this is how your post sounded). I was referring to those who seem to want to stay. The folks protesting seem none too interested in going back where, as you say, there were jobs, food, etc. Yes, the welfare mentality is at work here. But I'm talking about those who would pick up, pack and move to a new place and a new way of life (all right, the same way of life, but in a different place--though I believe there are those in this group who hope for something more than a handout.)

Also, I recently posted an article saying the women in Mexico want the men to come back. They marry young, get the girl pregnant, then leave girl and baby behind as they go on an "adventure" to El Norte. There is work for them in the village, there is a peaceful life, there is no self esteem problem. So, you're dead wrong, hershey in all your social worker sobbing about how hard life is back home for the criminals who invade our country.
