"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." -Manuel II Paleologus
Agreed. We don't need anymore big, ugly, smelly cities like L.A., Detroit, or fill in the blank if you wish...
A nation that allows a million illegal immigrants to pour across the border every year while killing off a million of its own citizens doesn't need immigration reform -- it needs a complete psychiatric exam.
Keep on coming folks, we have a great country, great people, the best job opportunities in the world and we need people willing to risk their life to do it. A risk very few here would take.
I once heard it stated that if every human in the world were relocated to Texas, everbody would have over one acre. If that's the case, how is the USA overpopulated? We have the most opportunity, best jobs, highest standard of living (for a large country) and more freedom, although not as much as we once had.
Reaching a population of over 3 million is nothing to celebrate.I remember when Disneyland opened and everyone complained because the line to "The Mattahorn" ride was a twenty minute wait. Wow! Now our kids think nothing of waiting two to three hours for a ride at Magic Mountain.
On Fox this afternoon they stated that most of the growth was not from immigrants. I suspected they were parsing the info, and indeed, it appears from this article that I was right, if you roll in immigrants and their amazingly high birthrate. Even Fox, for the most part, seems to feel they have to hide the truth.

Must disagree. In our new century People are the real power -- the more people the better. One of the main reasons the US is still the new US (and not say falling into dhmmitude like the EU) is because we're the third most populous country on earth.
I don't know what you mean by "roll it back" but if we're still not #3 50 years from now we're in deep trouble.
This morning's Fox & Friends made a big deal over the baby that was supposedly the 300th million, when that number was probably reached back in Jan. or Feb. by someone stuffed in an SUV with 20 other illegals near Eagle Pass, TX.
