I actually don’t mind this. If people are will to serve in the military, they have earned their citizen card. This is not really new, we had similar policies in the first 100 plus years of this country. We shouldn’t oppose immigrants who really want to be Americans and contribute to society. We should oppose the criminals and the ones who simply want to milk the system.
10 weeks in the military and you get citizenship?
10 weeks?
Then you can drop out and be an American citizen. nice.
A Muslim adheres to a faith that is a political ideology opposed to enforcing equal rights for those practicing any other religion. It is impossible for a Muslim to take the oath of citizenship in good faith. They have no intention of being Americans, all protestations and appearances to the contrary.
Nor does Hizballah.
Well, that leaves out muslims.
We should oppose the criminals and the ones who simply want to milk the system.
Well, that includes muslims.
This isn’t the 1840’s and these aren’t the Irish we’re talking about. Illegal Alien Muslims don’t want to become Americans to “contribute to society” in a meaningful way.
Is there anything about the dilution of US citizenship that you DO mind?
I agree that military service should qualify one for citizenship, but this is 10 weeks. 70 days!
Basic training can take longer than that!
It’s the typical Obama/Liberal “Reward before Work” BS.
Major Hasan, and that other Hasan who rolled the hand grenade under the tent in Iraq, were also willing “to serve in the Military”. Get your head screwed on straight. Have you learned NOTHING? (Unless of course you were making an extremely sarcastic statement but forgot to put on the “sarc” tag.)
“If people are will to serve in the military, they have earned their citizen card”
IN TEN WEEKS?
“We shouldnt oppose immigrants who really want to be Americans and contribute to society.”
Nice sentiment but terribly naive. Do you think maybe a few of our enemies see this as an opportunity to wreak havoc within our military? Maybe?? We have had our head in the sand for far too long and we are paying a high price for our ignorance. These people our out to subjugate us.
Wake up for God’s sake.
Illegal immigrants should not be rewarded in ANY WAY! They can go through the same channels as anyone else wanting to immigrate. There are plenty of citizens willing to serve—the services have all been meeting their recruitment quotas.
This is insane!
And it didn’t always work out. Look up the San Patricanos.
You need a new name.
