I wasn't implying that you are. It was a general statement. I hope it doesn't go that far either. I don't want to see bloodshed in our streets.

How many illegals do you know personally? I guess we will never know since you are no longer a member.

best thread on the whole citydata site. Before the election, I got into an altercation over a parking space in a WalMart lot with a carload of apparantly Spanish speaking people. they finally informed me that they were on the rise and there was nothing I could do about it. Obama was going to see that they got amnesty.......I have never forgotten it and it appears to be true.

I know of similar incidents that have happened. They are becoming brazen and arrogant and so are their advocaters.

Have you ever looked at the numbers listed on the Los Angeles Times article stating how much illegals are costing us?????

Have you seen the flood of the children in our schools?

Do you know about how they want to double our property taxes (which already is a fortune) due to the needing of approx. 86 new schools due to the population growth?

Have you looked at the population of Hispanics/Latins in the public school system in Los Angeles?

YES they scream entitlement all the time. Have you read any news articles recently? Do you live in a city or state that has an illegal immigration problem? I do and I know.
In Gainesville Fl we have one of the lowest unemployment rates in the state. The last time they had to build a new high school was over 25 yrs ago. All jobs are being done without a illegal work force. Gainesville is a reflection of legal immigration from across the globe. I pray we are spared of a large illegal population.

Take a look at this video and see what they're teaching illegal alien children and the Anchor Babies in schools across America. If we ever go to war with Mexico The Mexican Army is already here! WAKE AMERICA UP!

I have personally witnessed this myself. You don't even have to say anything to them sometimes, they will simply arrogantly inform you that they are "on the rise" and are "outbreeding" you. It's disgusting.

I don't know what they're so upset about. They already have way more freebies and opportunities than America gave to, say, Italians, Poles, and Jews. My ancestors with those bloodlines had to struggle very hard. No signs were in Italian, Polish, or Hebrew. In those households, speaking the native tongue of the mother country was frowned upon. English was the way. It seems like today's immigrants are the complete opposite.

actually the poster you quoted overlooked the obvious. (as are you )
Those Latin countries prosecute illegial aliens as criminals.
we dont.
so try again, and thanks for playing
