I am arguing it should NOT be illegal for them to come here. Borders are just a legal excuse for discrimination
Translation= Look over there!
They can't help being born a non-american anymore than you can help being born an american.
Translation= No wait look over here again!
I am saying it is HUMANITY's responsibility.
LOOK HERE--->ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION IS A CRIME! Thus the term illegal.
Everything else is just whining and crying and excuses and diversions.
And you're little post meant what? That my points aren't valid? That opening the borders should not and cannot be discussed? I am not employing fallacies to win some juvenile argument. I have stated there are illegal immigrants. I believe it should not be illegal. Care to add to the discussion or just want to keep insulting people here?

Our Constitution specifically states what our extorted tax dollars may be used for. I am not saying this act of socialism is something new. It has been happening for quite some time, but a merger with a 3rd world nation and a socialist leaning nation will only result in more unconstitutional expenditures of our money.
Letting more people in who cannot support themselves will result in more income redistribution, which I'm sure you know is one of the very basic tents of socialism.

How about bank robbery? I know my life would be better if I had bags of cash laying around my house.

I am not familiar with the stipulations on tax monies, I will have to do some reading here (yes reading! ). I also have not thought about the rammifications of the NAU on the Constitution would be. Good points.

This, my friend, IS a fallacy. I have provided my justifications for making legal all immigration. To jump off into the deep end and claim I am supporting bank robbery is insulting and ignorant. OMG, you want to legalize medical marijuana???? So I suppose you want to be able to murder your neighbors then too? That is such a ridiculous jump of logic.

We can start by legislating against all free public services for illegal immigrants. No more free medical care, er visits, nothing.
They say americans are racist. You know who I have found is most angry? The legal immigrants. My friends who are legal immigrants are SEETHING.
This is the biggest insult. They worked hard, learned the language, found sponsers, and did it the right way.

Yeah, after AMERICAN CITIZENS are out in the streets because they can't find a job because a bunch of non-English speaking lawbreakers have filled the job industry, they would move on. Then what?
Originally posted by ninthaxis
Slow down a bit and read what was posted before making such rash statements. What this referred to was a world wide open border policy. So your notion of lawbreakers and non-English jargon is out of context. kthx

What you're hoping for is not a reality and never will be.. So, no, it is very much in context with the THREAD... KTHX...

Well, I will save what other laws should go for another thread as it does not apply to his immigration business at hand. I do not agree that opening our borders will result in this unbearable flood of people. Many individuals do not have the means to get here as oceans are in the way. Plus, America is not the only country that is seen as prosperous. If all borders would open, people would immigrate where the jobs are. When those jobs dry up they would move on.

With the succes that the european union is enjoying one might hope a similar change world wide, a marrying of world economies has been proven through this union to be both possible and beneficial. Europe has both wealthy and third world nations and yet seems to be balanced and prosperouse. Maybe we could take a hint?
Not to mention immigration issues are a thing of the past amongst nations within the union

our constitiution is unique in that it makes room for change....not for laws to be erased, but to be changed to represent the needs of the country as the needs change. In a globilized, interdependant world the needs of the many out way the needs of the few. The needs of the world out ways the needs of a single country. This my friend is the future, weather you like it or not. We are on a one track road towards progress not backwards isolationism.
