Default They broke the law..A law of a sovereign nation

That's the simple answer to your question.

We are a sovereign country...We have immigration laws that most of our parents and grandparents sacrificed to obey. They came here legally.

We became a sovereign nation when we went to war in WWI and WWII to save the world from tyranny...We earned our place in the world, and our rights as a sovereign nation. There is no argument that the United States of America has made the world a better and safer place.

We have certainly done a better job than any other nation...And that's why the illegals are sneaking in here...isn't it?

We made a big mistake granting amnesty before. It has now led to this debacle.

Economic arguments are irrelevant...They broke the law.

Pimps put money into the economic system...Child pornography and child prostitution puts money into the economic system...Hey!..Why not legalize them also?..The country needs the money!...Right?...What's the difference?...Screw the laws!..Screw keeping contol of our society!...We need the money!...Does that sound fair?...Same argument, isn't it?

Let's face it...no one will want to kick everyone out - We see these people everyday ...(For the usual trolling jerks that want to know "How do you know if someone is illegal?"...Flip a coin you morons, the illegal Latino population is about 50% of the entire Latino population here).

There should be no amnesty...If they want to stay and work...Register, give names of the employers that originally hired you (so we can give those bastards the bill), and you get a residence permit...No citizenship - That would be rewarding law-breaking.

As far as the children - If the parents walk the straight-line (no felonies), after a number of years, grant the kids residency or citizenship.

And most important...We stop all immigration (legal and illegal) from Latino countries for 10 years - To allow other countries from around the globe to have equal opportunity....And that means no relatives, no hardships, nobody.

That would be fair.

While I applaud you for your pro-laws stance I will have to disagree that any of these illegals should be given legal residency. If they want to become immigrants in the true sense of the word they should return to their homelands and apply there just like any other immigrant already waiting in their homelands for the same thing. Anything else would not be fair.

Wow, I'm dumb. I was actually about to go point by point. Here are a few points already covered. I'm not going to cover the rest. This is clearly from a chain e-mail that has been debunked over and over again.

Illegal aliens are crossing our borders and have babies for profits. *welfare* meaning my tax $$ supports their kids. Illegal aliens are cramming our hospitals and not paying forcing hundreds of hospitals to shut down their emergency room. Pitiful. Illegal aliens are driving our roads and can't read the signs causing mega accidents resulting in death and permanent injuries and they rarely show up in court.. In other words.. They skip. Illegal aliens are working our jobs many working under the table so to speak. Others use fake/stolen id's and others claim many dependants paying little tax. Many of our laws are being ignored by our politicians because they want the endorsements and votes that illegals are capable of doing. Voter fraud at an all time high. Illegal aliens are collecting welfare sec 8 housing, energy assistance, food stamps and all this is paid for by our citizens and the legal immigrants of our country costing mega bucks and this is why we see food, gas and utility costs, fines, speed cameras, fees etc to rise beyond belief. Need more?
