What do you think on the illegal immigration in the US. I think it is outragous, I know plenty of people who came into this country the legal way and they even complain about the current sitituation

Gee can we even call this America anymore?? Everytime I see the News it is full of a illegal has done a crime. I can't understand why we don't enforce the Laws that are on the books. Wages are going down as they will work for less. They are draining our system dry and we as a American try to get help we are turned down. I can understand they want to make a better living but they all need to come in the right way.... Another raid was done in Illinios and most were illegal and some had bad crimes against them. Others had stolen ID..Gee you would think with all the stolen ID going on we could come up with a system to help protect us and catch who ever is using them. Schools here have a poor grade as most the drop outs are from illegal parents and drop out or they can't pass the finals as they don't understand English or our ways of teaching. We hire teachers extra to teach English/Spanish..What happen to the American language?? The way I look at all this the high ups are using all the illegals as a new salve..Cheap labor, will do any job....But in the end we Americans are paying for them to live better then us. I just can't figure that one out. Even when I was back to Minnesota the News was full of crime done by a (you guessed it) a illegal...It has gotten bad here in Las Vegas also. But it won't be long and the raid will hit this city also. If they want to live here make a better living just become illegal. Get a Visa, Green Card and do it right. I have neighbors who all speak good English and they are so upset at the illegal also. They are from Mexico also, but like they say it gives them a bad rap and is harder to become legal. But they are working on it as they want to do it right... I seen on CNN in Calif they had a march and one was trying to set a American flag on fire. They want the better living??????? I don't think so...But I think it is time for all of us to stand up for our rights.....

I am one who came the legal way...I detest ILLEGAL immigrants. I was a LEGAL immigrant at one time. When I came to the States I had already worked for the US government for 12 years, 4 years in North Africa, 8 years in Germany, been married to an American for 8 years and I did not get any breaks. I paid taxes, obey all the laws, studied hard to pass the test and paid $400.00 to apply for citizenship. Why the hell should they get away with breaking the laws, reap the benefits that should only be for legally law abiding residents??? If they don't want to be legal in our country and get citizenship the hard way then send them back to wherever they came from!
