I ask you, why hasn't the social security card been made tamper proof seeing that we have so much technology?
I ask you, why haven't politicians enforce the fines on businesses?
Democrats are always blamed for being soft on illegals, but I ask why didn't the Republicans take care of this issue when they had control of Congress?
I ask you why haven't politicians required at least one parent to be a legal citizen in order to get government benefits similar to what is called for on the US income tax?
I ask you why isn't every business obligated to use the E-Verify program the government has?
I ask you why the US visa system still allows people to overstay their visas?
First I'd like to say of My Old Home Land, If You Cross The Chinese Border ILLEGALLY You May Never Be Heard From Again And Be Known As An Organ Donor.
If You cross the Mexican Border Illegally, you will end up in a Mexican Federal Jail for a very long stay

Your list seems a little low...I think you are missing some.
Well not some...more like millions...millions of Native Americans that were killed by "illegal immigrants" around 500-200 years ago.
How ironic that it is the "illegals" of today that share the same ancestory to those that were massacred so long ago...still to this very day...their ancestral lands are not free for them to roam...and they are called "illegal" on land that was stolen from their ancestors.
How very sad.edit on 4-2-2011 by MindSpin because: (no reason given)

Are you saying we should model our laws after China and Mexico?
Should they be our role models that we look up to?
Or MAYBE...just maybe...we should set an example on how HUMANS should be treated and not treat them like animals or a lower class of human just because of the geographical location they were born in.
It's just a thought.
You know what the difference is don't you? Ops talking about what's happening right now to people who are alive.
No we shouldn't forget the past. But that was a way different conglamoration of people.. There are millions of people here now who had nothing to do with the way this country was founded.
By your logic two wrongs make a right and we all would also be illegal immigrants because, according to many here at ATS, we came from Africa.
I was in no way justifying anything. Every race or ethnicity is guilty of killing another people. There is actually a thread going now about something similar why don't you use your superior logic in this thread

And as long as we are on the topic of people that had "nothing to do" with past actions of their ancestors...I guess that means that me and you can agree that the children of "illegals" shouldn't be punished for the actions of their parents....RIGHT????
I %100 agree with the above. The government is working on that issue. The illegals know that their children born here are "legals" so in essence they are taking advantage of the system
Land of the free...American Dream...."Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses"...something along those lines.
Im pretty sure that implies to people that come here legally and prefer to assimilate into America.
How about we just call these individuals that have killed people murderers and leave it at that. How about we don't try to spread fear and propaganda about ALL immigrants becasue of the actions of individuals who are murderers.
I wholeheartedly agree.
