Immigration Rally’s Live Thread

What's worse is that could be us running from all those wishing to push us out of our own country

[cher941]

Deport llegals, we should care that they won't like it? Who the hell are they anyway, coming here and DEMANDING, DEMANDING that we cave in because of the sheer force of their numbers. That just proves the point more so, they ARE INVADERS. GO HOME.

[trublu]

My grandparents applied, waited in line, and came here legally. Once here, they quickly learned English and forbade the speaking of their native language in the house. They applied for US citizenship at the first opportunity. They desparately wanted to assimilate and be seen as "American". They worked dirty, menial jobs at low wages to make a better life for their children. They didn't send money out of the country to family members.

Thousands of LEGAL immigrants repeat this process every year. No ILLEGAL immigrant should be permitted to cut in line ahead of these Americans. Period.

[Marty]

The government has another reason to worry. If they fold over this, they've just shown the taxpayers that taking to the streets and refusing to pay taxes will work. Think about it. There are a heck of a lot more pissed off taxpayers than there are illegal aliens.

[VOA]

They won't carry the communist or proterrorist stuff either.

Then we should.
Show up with a sign like "Hey, Where'd All The Che Signs Go?"

Unfortunately, that would never be shown on TV.
And the illegals would probably open up a can of Whoop-@ss on anyone
who dared to point out their mendacity.

[DoctorMichael]

Presidente Boosh: Is this a 'Country' or is it a 'Market'?

[VOA]

an another banner for all the illegals waving Old Glory:
"Are You All In The Closet?
Along With Your Mexican Flags?"

[Dixie Yooper]

I see two things that need to be done immediately. Secure our boarders and impose the Fair Tax System so we can at least get all these American wannabes to pay their way from now on. The IRS does not have the means or methods to deal with what is about to happen.

Every administration since WWII has failed to secure our borders. We now have to pay for it! How much are we really willing to pay?

[VOA]

can't beleve my church, the Catholic church is supporting the illegal, documented
or undocumented immigrant,

I'm loath to comment, not being Catholic.
BUT, if I was called in as an public relations guy for the great mass of
US Catholics, I'd tell them this.

Your conference of US Bishops are doing nothing but laying landmines
for future generations of US Catholics.

1. The Bishops are giving even mainstream Americans pause to wonder
which country their allegiance lies with. And can they ever be
viewed as a source of legitimate moral teaching.

2. And why aren't US Bishops asking Rome to excommunicate the
RICH Mexicans (probably mostly Catholic) that have enriched themselves
at the expense of their own fellow citizens? And forced them to
move to another country for improved circumstances?

[stockstrader]

Geeee....why aren't they doing these protests during "HISPANIC HERITAGE WEEK"?

It looks like we'll have to increase honoring their contributions to HISPANIC HERITAGE MONTH!

[trubluolyguy]

Because then they will be LOYAL to us and the United States

You really believe that do ya?

[adam_az]

What the hell, are you Dane's twin?

[bk1000]

Deny them social services. Heavily fine employers who do not make good faith efforts to assure legitimacy. Do not hire them, and they will leave. Nothing else will work. It is the law of supply and demand. Anyone who hires one to cut their grass or clean their house is part of the problem.

[RamingtonStall]

Amnesty = Appeasement!

It didn't work prior to WWI and it certainly didn't work prior to WWII. Most importantly, It will NOT work Now!

Right now, our Government has allowed our country to be invaded by Illegal Alliens from our Southern Borders and they have allowed Wahhabi Islamo-Fascists to infiltrate our entire country. Whatever happened to Presidents who uphold their very simple Oath of Office to Defend our Country from ALL ENEMIES, Foreign and Domestic ?????

No Appeasement! No Amnesty for Illegal Aliens!

Politicians who reward the Illegals had better get used to dealing with mobs of people who protest paying the Alternative Minimum Tax!

OK. Let's just roll over and take it up the arse for ALL lawbreakers, well except those damned white christian males (they can rot in hell, right?).

Really, has the USA become COMPLETELY pussified?

Get rid of the felonious invaders the same way they came in - SLOWLY. Gradually make it less and less attractive for them to break the law. Remove the incentive to stay, and they will leave. Do ya think they came here because they love the USA???? Not likely, judging by the proliferation of MexiCRAP flags flown by the illegals and their dupes...

Has anyone here actually considered doing something difficult, not because it will be expedient or profitable, but because it is THE RIGHT THING TO DO?!!!!!!

[Darkwolf377]

This is a big win for the Republicans come November--the Silent Majority which will never, ever say their true feelings at social engagements will just vote R because they think Republicans will be tougher on illegals than will Democrats.

It's that simple. I think these demonstrations are going to propel the Republicans to a larger majority solely because it's a GUT vote-issue. Add to that security and taxes, and the R's will have to try mighty hard to screw up a win in November.

Unless of course all the "true conservatives" sit on their hands in November...

[Dixie Yooper]

Once we deny them a chance to make an "honest living"(work for pay), how many of them will choose to go back to where there is no living at all compared to the ones that will stay here making a dishonest living that involves real crime.

[4U2OUI]

Well, they are ALREADY MAKING A DISHONEST LIVING. AND THEY ARE ALREADY FILLING OUR PRISONS AT A RATE DISPROPORTIONATE TO THEIR POPULATION.

Ship their filthy arses back to Mexicrap.

[bk1000]

"Once we deny them a chance to make an "honest living"(work for pay), how many of them will choose to go back to where there is no living at all compared to the ones that will stay here making a dishonest living that involves real crime."

If they would organize and march in Mexico like they feel free to do here perhaps they could affect changes in Mexico and perhaps even improve the place. If they want to work so much there is plenty to do at home. No need to come here.

[Dixie Yooper]

Why would they organize to do something in a country that would hunt them down like animals for doing such a thing, when all they had to do was to cross a border that every administration since WWII choose not to defend. We created this situation, they took advantage of it.
We need to defend our borders first.
We need a fair tax system that will turn these people into a benefit for us instead of an income tax system that will allow them to be a burden.
As far as the illeagal immigrant criminals that are over crowding our prisons, ship them back. We can keep the good ones.
The lack of border security for the last 50 years is our fault. Giving these people a good place live is not that great of a price to pay compared to what this could turn into if we choose to round them all up and transport them all back accross the border. They are not sheep or cattle.
