So they are suddenly going to do what's right and start following laws? Especially living in the corrupt Chicago area where many of the already legal residents are involved in criminal activities and are not punished. Yea, right. You're assuming they're all in this country for the purposes of committing crimes. That's the bias and ignorance I was referring to earlier. People in this country need to get over the whole "they don't look or talk like me, so they must be up to no good and so I don't think they should be here" attitude. Unless you have some other data that no one else has seen I stand by my earlier point: the vast majority of immigrants (illegal or otherwise) come here to work hard and make a better life for themselves and their families. There are always exceptions to any rule, but it doesn't equate to the vast majority. There are far, far more "legal" people born and raised in this country who commit far more crimes. Interestingly, I don't read any posts from this forum screaming for them to stop it or they have to leave the country. Hmmm, wonder why that is. FYI.......illegal immigration itself IS a crime. www.americanpatrol.com/REFERENCE/isacrime.html

re:There are far, far more "legal" people born and raised in this country who commit far more crimes. Thats the best you can come up with ?
What part of illegal alien dont you understand?
Quotes:
1) Someone who does the job you used to do for less than half the pay.
2) Someone who takes your job, then claims they are doing a job that Americans don't want to do. 3) Someone who sneaks into the country just before giving birth, so their baby can be an American citizen.
4) "Click 1 for English",
5) Try to proclaim they have civil rights equal to the citizens, of the nation they have trespassed.
I'd post the other 1,200 but I gotta get to work.

FYI: Follow along. I understand illegal immigration is a crime. My point is that it's not why they came here. The vast majority aren't the ones committing any crimes. Get past the part about how they got here. Everybody already knows that. If you're going to hang your hat on that and ignore everything else then the problem will never be solved. What do you want?

re:There are far, far more "legal" people born and raised in this country who commit far more crimes. Thats the best you can come up with ? What part of illegal alien dont you understand? Quotes: 1) Someone who does the job you used to do for less than half the pay. And why is it they are doing those jobs? 2) Someone who takes your job, then claims they are doing a job that Americans don't want to do. They didn't take the job, an employer offered it. And there are in fact many jobs "Americans" no longer want to do and so they will get taken by someone. 3) Someone who sneaks into the country just before giving birth, so their baby can be an American citizen. That 's far more myth than reality. The fact that you posted that tells me you have no clue what you're saying. Here's a good read on that subject: www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2010/aug/06/lindsey-graham/illegal-immigrants-anchor-babies-birthright/. That's just one link. If that one doesn't suit you let me know and I'll post more. Once again, the vast majority of immigrants come here for work and a better life, not drop & leaves or crimes. 4) "Click 1 for English", That is such a non-issue I won't waste time with it.5) Try to proclaim they have civil rights equal to the citizens, of the nation they have trespassed. They do, and have before this all became the big issue it is. But I digress, how about you tell us which civil rights you're referring to? And please also define the "them" to which you're referring.I'd post the other 1,200 but I gotta get to work.

I said fix the immigration issue, but you guys just won't hear of it. This is why your party lost the election - you can't stay on point more than one minute. Your forum leader is the worst.

The reality is you're really just interested in keeping your job and getting pay raises off the backs of taxpayers.

Psst...these warriors dont come back "injured"...they come back with a lot of body parts missing and a brain that has gone haywaired. And in most cases their families and others eventually get tired of taking care of them after a year or two. Why dont you volunteer to help these guys,they could sure use it.

I'm supposed to believe you really care about any of that?? All I see you posting about is how you got your promotions and your pay increases. You bitch about Obama but you sure do get yours, don't you? What GS level are you now? That all comes courtesy of taxpayers.
