lol. If they are here illegally they should be deported, at the very least the benefits need to be denied to them.
Equating hispanics and illegals is racist IMO. That goes for the side arguing for them too.
If they here for 25 years and never even tried to start the citizenship process, then what? You consider them to be okay somehow? They have proven themselves to be foreign invaders colonizing our territory. They have shown no intention to wanting to become Americanized, nor any loyalty to the country they have supposedly adopted.
“Statute of limitations”?? When they leave or legally become citizens then that is the limitation.
I ABSOLUTELY DID NOT equate hispanics and illegals. The post I was responding to disqualified someone else from having an opinion on the subject because that person didn't live in hispanic SoCal. I was merely pointing out that I shared the view AND DID LIVE in hispanic SoCal.
They have shown no intention to wanting to become Americanized,
First gen immigrants often don't assimilate much, even legal ones. By the time you get to grandkids, the 3rd generation almost always assimilates, even sometimes against the wishes of the first generation.
But I don't want to argue with you on this. I agree with you more than I agree with Newt. Mainly however, I think it's a stupid argument. If Newt does the stuff he says, i.e. closes the border and deports the worst of the illegals, it's 1,000,000 times better than any president in my lifetime. If I disagree with him about whether he should try to do something he probably couldn't accomplish even if he tried, it is, to me, somewhat trivial. And not NEARLY as concerning as the idea of Romney getting the nomination because conservatives can't find a single candidate to agree on.
