BTW what about the living here 20 something years who still demand government print paperwork in Spanish? What about second generation grown up who still no speak English? We paid for their education remember that? The parents didn't come here to become Americans they came here too be illegals working in the USA UNDER THE TABLE taking benefits while doing so and if they get caught or in legal trouble they do one of several things like go back home till the heat is off, or move to another state with new someone else STOLLEN I.D. and right back in.
Can you or I do this and avoid jail? No we can't live without a trace number so why are you wanting to enable them too do what we can't? If I did the things illegals do including signing official papers under penalty of perjury with false information I'd be under the jail.
Can you post a reference?
I pulled the relevant USC this morning, and it said ten years except for fraud, which is seven.
If they support themselves, they stay. If not they go, no matter how long they have been here.
I would say you are casting a huge net with what you say. I know you are correct about some of the things you are saying but I am talking about those who have assimilated into our society, speak English and so forth. Those people are not a burden and are not the problem. What harm are they doing you if they are law abiding, love our nation, work hard, pay taxes, educate themselves, pay their own way, go to church, have homes, root for the home team, and pay their own medical expenses? Some of them are conservatives. And I say this: enforce our borders and stop the inflow of illegals. Go Newt!
