One thing you all seem to forget -- those folks here illegally don't want legal records of their existence. They operate with cash -- they don't register to vote. They don't want to get caught.

I saw this with the church and school community I was very involved with.
The illegal residents would not register for 'hand outs' (food/clothing/toy drives) because they didn't want to bring attention to themselves.

They would do without rather than take the hand out.

Doesn't fit what you all keep telling me.
We've got thousands and thousands of instances of them indeed registering to vote, you're wrong again.

Some may be saying that but the majority of the people protesting ICE that I've seen said nothing about replacing it with anything. They want to eliminate ICE because it's doing a great job now that the POTUS has given them the ok.

The claims of illegals voting have been debunked every single time.

In some communities they are given the right to vote for school boards but that doesn't put them on the list for federal or state elections.

A 'white Hispanic' killed a black teen in florida and the press covered the story for months. How long will the press cover the story about an illegal Hispanic immigrant that killed a white girl in Iowa?

She'd be alive right now.

She'd have a full life ahead of her.

But no,. Democrats have to have their Hispanic voting block, so they're willing to sacrifice own of their own, an American citizen and and anti Trump Liberal to keep it.
But no. Pubs have to have their cheap illegal labor. So Rivera was hired several years ago to work for cheap on a farm owned by a prominent GOP family.

See how that works?

But there was controversy in Florida.

There is not controversy or contradiction -- the guy confessed. He's guilty. He's illegal. Nobody is disputing any of it.

It's like comparing apples and onions.

Your assessment of illegals as being part of the fabric of America now is far from accurate, go to LA or any other big city in California and see what many parts of those places look like, it's definitely not America.

If the majority of immigrants want to live their lives in peace, they should come into this country legally.

No, that's false logic.

Say that only 100 murders are committed by illegal immigrants yearly.

The ratio of how many Americans commit murder compared to how many illegal immigrants commit murder is not a factor in whether or not those 100 murders would happen.

If we actually enforced our immigration laws then those 100 people would be alive because the 100 illegal immigrants would not be here.

As I have said from day one, it's mostly the GOP that uses this illegal labor - and, why not? They are boldly in favor of money for its own sake. America doesn't matter. You can get all involved are Trump voters and hyorcrites like the rest of them.

"worked for an Iowa farm owned by the brother of a prominent Iowa Republican."

Wow, color me surprised...you mean Republicans knowingly break the law for money? Well, that's that Manafort did so I guess it's par for the course.
