Actually, it's Chicagonut that isn't abiding. He keeps going off topic with no ramifications. Now, who is SPECIAL?

Uh, I think most of us have already acknowledge that some do pay taxes. Selective reading perhaps? What we have been saying is that they don't pay in enough taxes to cover their social costs.

Some would like to become citizens and some would like to return to their native lands with cash in hand. Why would they be worried about being separated from their families? The whole family can't return to their native country? Fear of deportation? Well, that's what happens when you enter a country illegally.

I'm sure they'll take your comments in stride.

Which groups are making the most noise? Is La Raza standing up for the Muslims, Indians and Asians in this country? How about Luis Guteiriz (sp) from Illinois? We check passports on anyone entering the country by air but look the other way at those that walk across the border.

PLEASE SHOW ME WHERE I SAID ALL ILLEGALS ARE MEXICAN.

I may have to check again, but I thought it did
The Constitution was not written for a theocracy, nor was that it's originally intent. It was written to guard against Governments intrusion into their freedom found in Christ and to insure that the faith of the Gospel would flourish, not be extinguished.

Obviously, when a culture later arose that forgot, or were ignorant, of the principals of it's founding faith, the opposite occurred. The Constitution become a document to limit the faith of the Gospel rather than proclaim it.

The original principals and ideals of our Constitution were framed, written and debated at length by those who had a deep faith in Christ and wanted to protect that freedom at all cost..

Read the bio's of the founding Father's and you'll get to know them and what they thought.

Correction: You accused me of saying they didn’t want to become legal. I corrected you then, so why continue to twist my words? No, they ONLY want legalization. Then, they can remain here, and continue to fleece U.S. taxpayers without the fear of deportation. They certainly have no desire to assimilate.

Talk about hypocrisy.
Seems you're a bit late to the show. It's actually been proven all over this forum. It's been conceded long ago. You may want to do a bit of reading to catch up.

Sweet. I can reference this when we hear how they won't become legal and learn the language and such.
