Look, I am just like anyone else and think folks should come to this country legal just like our Italian, Polish, German, Irish forefathers did. If they don't then why is it Obama's fault? Someone is falling asleep at the borders and someone is obviously getting paid huge dollars to let them come here.
OK..now this is gonna create havoc but I have to say it. Some time ago, I hired pure caucasian men to work on our roof. They came highly recommended. Not six months later the roof AND the skylight both leaked. When I had them come back to fix things, our ceilings in the kitchen and dining room were ruined from leaking. I go outside to check on their progress and they are sitting down RESTING drinking beer....I FIRED them on the spot.
I searched for a new roofer who had mostly Columbians working for him and the roof got done in record time, no drinking and no mess and VERY respectful. So.............why put all the blame for what goes on here in our country on illegals?? They will work and they do quality work.
Oh, by the way....Charles Manson was not an illegal.

See, here's the problem with a liberal, you guys always throw around useless information that has no need to be there and then act like it's important. One little anecdote that showed some Colombians (it is spelled with an O, nice job being open minded) were hard workers and some white Americans did a poor job does not change anything. Just because you had one good story doesn't mean that all people should be allowed to come to this country when they wish. How thick is your skull?

Just because someone is a good worker does not mean they should be able to cut in line and pass all of the people that are trying to go legally. Gives a pretty good impression of the United States huh? Don't worry everyone, if you try to do something the right way you will suffer because here in the United States we will protect criminals and try to say it is ok.


Oh, and I'm sorry but you've got to be someone with one of the dumbest thought processes I've ever seen. Charles Manson was not illegal.... and? Who cares, that doesn't change the fact that if we did a better job at stopping illegal immigrants that every crime committed by an illegal would essentially not have actually happened if they were stopped before arriving.

Let's keep making these blanket statements about illegal immigrants and calling them hard workers so we can ignore the issues.

A quick double tap will do the trick nicely.

I blame weird threads on the original poster. Imagine, if a male homosexual rapist ate breakfast cereal. I'd blame Golden Grahams for my butt hurt.

In 1986 when Reagan granted amnesty that is where it should have stopped with laws enforced and secured borders. Granting birthright citizenship should have been stopped as well. It's only in the last few years that government gave illegals the right to be illegal, the right to make demands on the US government. They are no longer criminals/illegals but "undocumented Americans" who enjoy the protection of the current administration.

I have not experienced crimes committed by illegal immigrants. Crimes committed against me were home grown people to rob or steal to support their drug use (white people). I have lived in south Texas, Arizona and now Northern California. I don't see how people blame Obama for any of this -- why not Bush or Regan. I want to understand the thought process for blame. Guns don't kill people. -- people kill people; well people pull the trigger don't they. Help me understand please!

If my family is subjected to a crime by a white nationalist should I drop it at trumps feet? Just following your logic.

You're calling out that poster for making blanket statements about illegal immigrants, but you want to make blanket statements about liberals? Ok.

Personally I agree with the OP. It's obviously a problem to have let un-traceable and unaccountable people in the country.
