Why would it bother legal immigrants? Illegal immigrants couldn't come legally in the first place. There is no legal process for them, unless they have immediate family ties.
As if they are owed anything. Yes, they should just go ahead and break the law with impunity. I wonder, what other laws should people just go ahead and bypass?
It would bother me
A clear message here comes 3rd amnesty is it ok to break our laws????
Worse the last wave BP greeted them and bused them to ca and turned them loose on the streets
obama hates white people..he is trying his best to put whites at a disadvantage. all he talks about is minorities getting better opportunities yada yada.
For those of you who came here legally and obeyed our immigration laws and support amnesty for illegals---why did you bother to do it lawfully? Why didn't you just sneak across the border or overstay your visa? Don't you feel like chumps for going to the trouble to do it the right way when illegals, in the end, get amnesty?

Interesting that he hates white people seeing that his mother, and the grandparents he obviously loved, were all white.
If I had jumped through all the necessary hoops to become a citizen, it would make me angry to see others who were here illegally be given amnesty. It makes me angry as a natural born citizen. Do you think it's fair?
It bothers me. Amnesty encourages more illegals to just come on over.
I don't care how hard their life is in US. If they had come legally they wouldn't have to look over their shoulders, but life is hardly easy for legal immigrants. They have to start from scratch and build up their life in a strange country - but a very open one where you don't have o bribe every petty official to get things done and where cops are not total thugs.
This is not a Democrats vs Republicans issue - both parties support amnesty in one form or another. Democrats to increase their future voting base and Republicans for cheap labor to keep down wages for legal workers. Reagan did the first amnesty in 1986 (IIRC) and now Obama will, in 2015. Rinse and repeat every 30 years.
If deportation is not possible (and why not exactly?) I like the suggestion made upthread, that illegals get a special green card that cannot be converted to citizenship.
Edit: BTW Mexico treated its illegals pretty harshly before 2011. Now the law has changed, but I wonder how much of it is actually followed by the Mexican bureaucracy. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illegal...tion_in_Mexico)
