It has nothing to do with race. If you're an illegal immigrant(crossed border, visa overstayer, etc) you have to go.

We can't sustain it anymore. 150 Billion dollars spent on illegals and their anchors every year. This doesn't include the 80 Billion in remittances.

Its not 11 million either. They have been saying that for 15 years. Its probably between 30 and 50 million illegals and anchors.

Time to fix this issue and then stop all immigration for a period of time. No asylum seekers. No refugees. Stop the Cuban 'wet foot, dry foot' nonsense.

Enough is enough!!

I agree with the OP.

A good start would be to enforce the laws we already have. If you are illegal and picked up by the Police for a crime then you are held, you answer for that crime then you are deported with no chance of sneaking back in.

There is a law that if a country will not take back one of their own the US has the right to stop all legal immigration from that country.


It is insane how an illegal alien can leech off the system, commit crimes get caught then get released to re offend.
We have enough problems on our own why do we need or want to import more problems?

My niece from UK had to go through an elaborate effort to obtain the right to work in USA, her boyfriend is here. The same rules must be apply to everyone. No jump the line.

Do you have any sources to prove your claims or are you just spouting non-sense?

I agree. Tackle illegal immigration, keep race and ethnicity out of it.

We definitely have to control illegal immigration but stopping all immigration would be just as bad as open borders.
OTOH I'd be fine with expelling certain people who are US citizens, such as pedos and severe animal abusers.

to where when you become a naturalized citizen you renounce your old citizenship, so do you want to put them on a raft and push them in the ocean? Not to mention do you not want them to go to jail and pay for their crimes first, or instead of jail you throw them on a desert, i dont think you thought that through.

It doesn't matter: illegal aliens need to leave the US, period. Their despicable kind DO force down wages for many Americans and even legal aliens.

To some they won't accept the facts. The facts don't support their political leanings and so they choose to either ignore the facts or disregard them. Here are some typical deflections to the facts.

Illegals commit thousands of violent crimes a year in the USA.
Deflection: Thousands of violent crimes are committed by US citizens too.

Illegals take jobs away from US citizens.
Deflection: Illegals only do the jobs Americans are too lazy to do. If we didn't have illegals lettuce will cost $5.00 a head.
