PHOENIX -- One in 10 Arizona workers is here illegally, according to a revealing new study.

The Pew Hispanic Center says the new number is based on U.S. Census data and their own surveys.

Steven Camarota, an immigration critic with the Center for Immigration Studies, said the Arizona figure contrasts to the national picture.

Is this supposed to be some kind of revelation?

illegal mexicans atribute to more than 75% of the illegal population.. getting rid of them would GREATLY reduce the burden of MY tax dollars and everyother American as well.. we all know there are other races who enter illegally.. they need to get deported, be stopped as well. But it's just like using a mob for an example.. when you get rid of the ringleaders, the rest sorta just drift away all on thier own. So yes .. I did mean mexican illegals. Not only are they the largest group of criminals who enter illegally.. they are also the largest group who sneak over and spit-out anchor babies as well, Which in turn costs American tax payers for years to come. Not only that.. illegal mexicans are also.. the largest group of illegal criminals who are in our prisons.. which costs Americans 3 million a day to incarcerate! yes.. there are illegal criminals from other countries.. we get that.. get rid of illegal mexicans.. keep them from sneaking across our border... WOULD and WILL save American lives.. and GREATLY reduce the illegal numbers vastly! Along the way.. other illegals, from other countries will/can be deported.. but WE ALL know who the major illegal criminals are and where they came from!

Your post only illustrates, once again, the reason why AZ residents are P/O'd

So you are saying Mexican illegals are not ok. Other illegals well we will get to them when we can. What happened to illegal is illegal and enforcing the laws consistently?You are already making exceptions. And we wonder how we got to where we are today... By the way when you say "... but WE All know..." I really don't. I live in Houston and we have illegals from all over not just Mexico. A third of our city is hispani/latino but I have no clue who are legal or not.
