Yeah you posted …
Yeah you posted this 2 weeks ago…whatever. So by your thinking, we can trust them to do the right thing, pay fees, etc. AFTER they become legal citizens? Trust them to live up to their own hype on the honor system?
Mwuahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
i think he should …
i think he should give to immigrants but make them pay for braking the law that way it helps both that problem and the economy.
Deciever. Only …
Deciever. Only Promises. This guy is full of BULL. He should joind JEFF SESSION. Secretary General of RACIST
First off, I’m not …
First off, I’m not saying that I think we should grant citizenship to all the illegal immigrants because I actually agree that we need to tighten up our borders and crack down on the employers of illegal immigrants. However, neo557 has made an interesting point. I’ll have to find it, but there was a study that came to the conclusion that illegal immigrants typically take the jobs that Americans won’t take. If true, then we need to reassess our position on this issue. We need more research.
im not saying give …
im not saying give papers to every single illigal…
what im saying is give them the benefit of the doubt it is possible for us coexist and still be successfull
what are american …
what are american jobs? listen to what some of yall are saying…
what you want to deliver youre own chinese food is that it…
who in their right mind wants to be a delivery driver… cmon man….
in the past couple of years ive seen more immigrants working in construction that americans…
i grew up in this country and i would gladly die for it but the fact remains that regardless of what yall saying this country was still descovered by an immigrant

Remember 44% on avg …
Remember 44% on avg only go to prision out of the millions who have been convited over the last 14 Years that is about a 2.5 in 10 based on statistics of adult aged people.
So you line 10 people up 3 have been convicted or working to get it exponged off there records.
Plus I just so happen to live in the Pacific North West Montana 41% , Idaho 34% and Washington 28% All in the Top 10 Montana is #1… Its prbly 4 in 10 here.. Im not one of them luckly…
First of all the …
First of all the guy worked with me at a job, he was illegal and a convicted felon. Second if you go to the department of justice and based on simple numbers.
900K were conviceted of felons in 1992, 44% went to prision the rest were just a fine or probation.
You can be convicted and people have of a felon for simply having perscription pills not subscribed for them.
In Illinois you can be convicted of a felon if you and 1 other person get into a fight its called Mob Action. cont.
“Some who are now …
“Some who are now felon’s they have told me out there own lips”
Are Yo uFreakin Serious?????
You must have a lot of felon friends……My friend I suggest that you get new friends
The fact is that …
The fact is that something needs to be done in order to get things under control. If you deport every illegal immigrant, we will be spending way to much money in the process, but if we give them a chance to become legal, we will be making money by having them pay fines and fees. The bottom line is that this is such a pationate topic, that it is difficult to get even the American people to agree.
Well they don’t do …
Well they don’t do that here in the north west.. I can tell you for a fact , they work and have jobs the majority of them.
Some who are now felon’s they have told me out there own lips and were suppose to report too the Embassy in there own country.
What is happening is the path is being paved for a Harder Line Immigrations group to move into the white house sooner or later. I understand the push, but we need to enforce current laws.
No American should be jobless with illegals working
The other thing is …
The other thing is that they will ALL be paying taxes, even though about 60% of them or more already do. They pay taxes with a little number called an ITIN (INCOMTAX PAYER NUMBER) which is a one hundred percent legal card that is issued to people who cannot get a social security card. All the government wants is for you to pay taxes.
Well, think about …
Well, think about it……Millions of “these people” are here in the shadows and in case you didn’t know, they are no longer hired unless they pass a full background check, which of course if they have no social they are not hired….at least that is here in the south west. The reason I say it will jumpstart the economy is because if they get the chance to become legal, they will have to pay a fee. There are millions of illegals here so imagine. continued……….
Please explain to …
Please explain to me how bringing in millions of illegal people into the economy will jumpstart the economy?
I live in Seattle I see these people everyday… To me it would appear that there here taking American jobs and they are here illegaly also?
I am so glad YOU …
I am so glad YOU are not the president……I am however very thankful and hopeful that Mr. Obama will actually be the one who makes dreams come true. The immigration reform will be the jumpstart the economy needs.
He neber showed his …

We plan to skip all …
We plan to skip all the legal stuff like visas, passports, immigration quotas and laws.
I’m sure they handle those things the same way you do here. So, would you mind telling your buddy, President Calderon and his cronies, that I’m on my way over?
