Native Americans didn't have laws against people coming on their lands. Some of the tribes even welcomed the foreigners.

We have established laws that say you need to be here legally.

I am honestly so tired of hearing this argument, it is not a good one. If somebody has a good argument for illegal immigration that doesn't rely on blaming people for things they had nothing to do with hundreds of years ago, then I am willing to listen. However, if you bring this up I will stop listening completely.

As will I. I am also sick of hearing that lame argument. This country is not the result of illegal immigration. The past is the past anyway. We are obligated to follow the immigration laws of today and nothing from the past justifies illegal immigration into our country today.

In 2013 it ain't "stolen". Back in the day it was "stolen" and NOT just by "white" people. Indians did the same kinds of things. Too; pretty much ANY country was "stolen" from other people, not just the US.

The country was built on coal and strip mining. Maybe we should bring that back too, along with horse drawn carriages and gas lighting!

Another totally dumb, inane thread.

Did the original primitives who came across the Bering Passage come illegally to take the continents away from the original mamoths, mastadons, and others?

Lets get real please.
