I was referring to your post, basically saying you didn't care what they did as long as they were "good neighbors". Hell, they could be satanists performing ritualistic animal slaughter in the basement, but as long as they keep their music down and mow their lawn then their alright with you.
And yes, if they are illegals collecting social services for their kids, then they are indeed leeches. I do however agree that anyone, legal or illegal shouldn't be able to abuse social service programs, they should only go to people who actually need it, but that's a different issue. Illegal aliens shouldn't be receiving them at all.

you obviously didnt get my post then.
my main concern is being good neighbors and respecting the neighborhood we share.
maybe i do have satan worshipping neighbors.
or neighbors that indulge in basement sex parties.
i would not know...
im more interested in those that create a bad neighborhood. the drug dealers. the pimps. baseheads. thugs/cholos. those come legal and illegal. but i still cant tell that (legality) by looking at them. i wont worry bout that.

Like I said, "CONTACHSTER", that's another issue, one that has nothing to do with this forum.

If illegal immigrants are using up social servive programs that are supposed to be for certain Americans then those people are being hugely effected by illegals. People on these threads are always talking about how illegals are harming people in this country. So to get a better understanding of the consequences of illegal immigration please tell me who the illegals are taking welfare benefits away from. I think my question is appropriate for this forum "SIMPLE MAN"

There are many Americans abusing social services as well. Some people run into situations where they need them temporarily until they get back on their feet. Illegals have no right to use them, because they shouldn't be here in the first place. Never once did I say they are taking social services away from Americans who need social services, the social services they are using along with the medical services they never pay for is bankrupting the tax payers.
P.S. Let's stop trolling with the condescending "quotations".

The only place illegal aliens in the USA 'need' to be prior to their deportation is a jail cell.

before I even could answer that question I would need to know what will be done with the legal aliens...would they become citizens over night since they already have been checked out and found okay by Homeland security?

Considering that point, the illegals in my old neighborhood you wouldn't like. They liked to have 30 cars parked infront of their house (sometimes double parked, blocking my driveway), along with the livestock in their back yards (nothing like being woken up by a rooster at the crack of dawn everyday). That, and I had to call the cops twice because of gang fights in the middle of the street.

I completely agree with not wanting these people in my community either.
