		<description>&lt;i&gt;the bostonian says because any law we pass is a law we have a right to pass no matter how ignorant, uneeded, nativist, racist and contrary to human liberty and decency it might be.&lt;/i&gt;

Plus it&#039;s a law that the invisible hand smacks around with the greatest of ease. I&#039;d rather try to drive the lane against Patrick Ewing than against the invisible hand.

		<description>&lt;i&gt;So, he moves into your back yard. Pitches a tent there. Attempts to eat your food by stealing it from your kitchen. Attempts to take a bath in your swimming pool. Urinates and takes dumps on your well-kept flowers and everywhere else in your yard and terrace, thus leaving a horrible smell for those who live in your house.&lt;/i&gt;

With that characterization of illegal immigrants, no wonder you&#039;re mistaken for a bigot. Can you say, &quot;stereotype&quot;?

		<description>well said, both of you.



the puerto rican thinks the people that foul his home are illegals, that it is illegals that cause horrible problems for the usa, they cause the crime, use the services and impoverish us all. que pathetica.



the bostonian says because any law we pass is a law we have a right to pass no matter how ignorant, uneeded, nativist, racist and contrary to human liberty and decency it might be. so tough beans and the heck with ya all. of course the rule of law has nothing to do with law and order. but that is beyond the ability of trailer dwellers to fathom.



thank you both for making my points.

		<description>Let me put, in very simple terms, why most of us - yes, even a Puerto Rican-born American citizen like me - oppose illegal immigration.

Say, you have a nice, well-kept house with nice front and back yards, which you have spent time and efforts to make it what it is.  One day, some ruffian you have never met before decides that he wants &lt;em&gt;your&lt;/em&gt; house.  So, he moves into your back yard.  Pitches a tent there.  Attempts to eat your food by stealing it from your kitchen.  Attempts to take a bath in your swimming pool.  Urinates and takes dumps on your well-kept flowers and everywhere else in your yard and terrace, thus leaving a horrible smell for those who live in your house.  Then, when you confront the man and tell him that this is not his house, but yours, the ruffian accuses you of being &quot;unfair&quot; and a &quot;bigot&quot;, that he has every right to steal from your home and make it look like a landfill because &lt;em&gt;he&lt;/em&gt; says so and has more rights than you to your own home (the home that you built and maintained for yourself and your family), and that, if you don&#039;t fulfill his demands, he will seize your house and force you and your family to live with his disgusting presence as an eyesore to everything  you built.

You tell the police about it, and what&#039;s the response?  &quot;Sorry, man, we can&#039;t take the man out of your property, even if you have a case, because we&#039;re afraid to lose our heads for doing the right thing.&quot;

That&#039;s when you know that no one will help you on this one.  You have to handle it yourself.

So, what do you do?  You take measures to defend yourself, your family, and your property.  You set up an alarm system inside the house, to the protests of the invader.  You prepare your family with some measure of self-defense, in case he decides to make a run for them and your house.  You buy a gun.  You fill it.  And you tell the ruffian, while pointing your gun at him, that he&#039;d better leave YOUR property RIGHT NOW, or you will empty those bullets into his body.

The ruffian screams &quot;You&#039;re threatening me!  What have &lt;em&gt;I&lt;/em&gt; done to you?&quot;

Plenty.  Plenty enough to act.

So, &lt;em&gt;que te quede claro.&lt;/em&gt;  What&#039;s happening here is that America is saying, loud and clear, to all of those ruffians and criminals who think they have a right to everything we have built and cared for and loot it into ruin, &quot;YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO INVADE MY HOME!&quot;

&lt;em&gt;He dicho.&lt;/em&gt;

		<description>&quot;f you have a clean interpol report and a job waiting why should you have to jump through white bs nativist hoops to enter and earn a living? &quot;



Why? Because the citizens of this country wrote a law, that&#039;s why.



You are saying we don&#039;t have a right to control the borders of our own country.

		<description>bap
i have homes in rivas, nicaragua, and coco, costa rica, i think i got a handle on frontiers and international travel having driven there as well.

you are welcome to dissagree. but you are not the first to rightously hide behind horrible law while calling others stupid. lots of pukes and tyrants have used the &quot;its the law&quot; thingy to hide behind. its not proof of anything. indeed in my experience there is an exact inverse relationship between the sanity of frontier law and breaking of said laws.

all those illegals in every country speak to unfilled need. no mas, no menos. its the law alright, its the law that is stupid. if you have a clean interpol report and a job waiting why should you have to jump through white bs nativist hoops to enter and earn a living? like you wanna work in a chicken plant.

		<description>As a natural American who went through the process of bringing in his wife legally, it is apparent to me that &quot;gcblues&quot; actually never visited either an American embassy or an Immigration center.  Try visiting the Immigration center in San Diego for yourself and you will find that if you are anything but Mexican, you will be treated like a second class citizen.  The security guards are Mexican, the receptionist are Mexican and the person you have to go through at the window is Mexican.  In fact, English is a second language at our Immigration centers and you are looked down upon if you speak English.  Try waiting in those 2 hour lines and you won&#039;t hear English spoken once.  On two separate occasions I was talked down to by a 18 year old Mexican girl who simply didn&#039;t like the way I looked.  No &quot;gcblues&quot; most people do respect the laws and don&#039;t break them like you and the 20 million other illegal aliens  obviously do.  When did American became the &#039;end all&#039; to solve every other countries problems?

		<description>We, LEGAL Immigrants pay taxes just like US citizens. We obey laws. We pledge to protect Constitution when we become citizens. Allowing law-violating illegals to cut in line before us is insulting - finally, someone say that, THANK YOU!

We, LEGAL Immigrants do not want others to steal our tax money and our security by being in here ILLEGALLY!!!

NOTE: maybe it is difficult to legally immigrate to USA, but believe me, it is much easier to immigrate to USA than to other countries - such as Germany, France, or Japan. Those have draconian laws on immigration!

		<description>&quot;These workers deserve a humane normalization process through which they can become Americans,&quot;
writes the author of this silly piece.

There is such a process.It is called going home, and applying for citizenship,while learning Englsh and American history and civics.That&#039;s it.

Deportation and employer sanctions work. See Eisenhower plan called &quot;Operation Wetback&quot;.

		<description>hola pura nica.

i own a home in rivas. where in nicaragua are you from?

others, respect for the law is different from following every stupid law. i break lots of laws that do not matter or matter much. so do you. so what.

illegals come here because they are needed and because immigration laws are so terrible they are impossible. want to eliminate illegals, make legal reasonable.

deport all the illegals, you&#039;ll be eating only imported food within a year. or maybe you want to work in a chicken plant? and do not give me the cr*p about raising wages. you raise the wage you just eliminate the job.

nothing conservative or smart about you border thumper people
