Quit side-stepping the issue. Why do you support illegal immigration? Anything else is avoiding the issue. However, you're real good at talking about ethnic slurs and what not, yet you can't seem to fathom how, given the social system of the day, along with family reunification, how this is going to have an increased negative effect on crime, the schools, the taxpayer, aesthetics, the environment, our culture, our country, our language, and of course, the law

Huh people said the same things about the Irish, Italian, Jewish, and Polish hordes one hundred years ago.

You apparently think that President Fox has a certain authority over the American government and that he can dictate our immigration laws and he can tell us if we are to have a one-way border of not. Why didn't Fox do the same for those Cuban refugees who went to the Mexican embassy to seek asylum? Can't you see Fox is the biggest lying hypocrit around?

Would you agree to letting the Prime Minister of Canada dictate that we were to allow every Canadian full access to every job, every social program, every resource in the United States but that Americans were not to be given rights to Canadian jobs and resources?

Quit saying that people were saying the same thing a hundred years ago. There is a tantamount of difference, and you know it. That is, if you are knowledgable about the subject.

For one, the social welfare atmosphere DID NOT exist. Did you get that? It DID NOT exist. Thus, the motive to immigrate here, was left mostly to those who could sink or swim on their own. Hence, it meant that mainly people who wanted to be Americans came. That, and the fact that you had to get on a boat to come to America. That big ocean had a positive effect in getting immigrants who felt loyalty to this country.

On the other hands, illegals just hop over the border. Furthermore, they've got special interest groups at their hands to sue the American public if they're "discriminated" against. Furthermore, if they can't make it on their own, they've got the taxpayers to support them through all types of social welfare. Not only that, they don't have to worry about learning English, for everyone they work for, due to declining wages, speaks Spanish, as well as mostly everyone they live around. Furthermore, you have a president who caters to them, and who addresses the nation in Spanish. You have Spanish television and radio, and you have a movement to turn the southwest over to Mexico. Furthermore, this movement, known for Aztlan, is much more known in Mexico than it is in the United States. Most Americans are ignorant of this.

Thus, given the above examples, along with the fact that past immigrants came from countries that had much more in common with the current American stock than does today's Mexico, it is obvious that there is a huge difference.

How could you deny such a thing?
