Hey genius, IT IS ALREADY A CRIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That's why what she said and now what you said is so damn hilarious! When you are convicted of being here ilegally, you don't go to jail, you get deported. Unless you have committed a criminal crime.

You are not very intelligent. I suggest you read up on how ilegalls are treated when they are caught in this country. They are handed over to ICE then deported. They DO NOT go to jail! Knowledge is power!

or we could just deport them and save all that social service money, watch unemployment decrease, and watch wages go up for everyone and full time employment be a reality for everyone here.

liberals only think about today and never about the future. that is why they have no problem with printing more money to pay the bills, even though it hurts the middle class and the poor worst of all.

her defending illegal behavior is inexcusable, no matter what.

maybe the rest of us should decide that paying taxes is a law we don't want to obey.....

you better believe the liberals would be all over that law. randomly enforcing laws sure as heck isn't good for our country.

So, enlighten us on the legal definitions of "crime" and "criminal crime", please.
You are proving my point about intelligence. There are CRIMINAL charges and there are CIVIL charges. Therefore illegal immigrants are civil violations, not criminal violations.

Evolution is an imperial fact, and Anthropological Global Warming is a hoax perpetrated by liberal freaks who are too stupid to know that their hoax has already been exposed. The list of idiotic statements by liberal morons far exceeds anything Republicans could conceive. Liberalism is obviously symptomatic of a serious mental disease.

Its as if government does not care to address this, and actually is encouraging this cheap "slave labor".
Wapasha! I'm going to mark my calender as the day you posted something I fully agree with.

Our reasons might vary, but I agree with your approach on this, so who cares. Yes, it's more like indentured servitude in most cases. They are trapped, and the companies that hire them, like Iowa Beef, for one, know this and abuse them.

I have no idea how many, but many, many of the illegal immigrants are abused and taken advantage of by the people/companies that hire them. I think this is especially true in the migrant farmers and the meatpacking/production industry. It's really inhumane and unethical.
