the LAW is, and predominantly has been, an a**, as we all know.
So, it's okay to steal in your world? It's okay to rape, murder, hurt children? The U.S. is a nation of laws, not a nation of men. Don't like it, don't come here. Your choice.
If I moved to Australia, I would do so legally.

How about some empathy for those of us who cannot afford health insurance being forced to subsidize illegals like this? Send his a** home.
i have empathy for you too, if i lived in the usa i wouldn't be able to afford it either. that doesn't make it right.... you SHOULD have free healthcare, everybody should as far as i'm concerned.
but why should he be taken from his family and relocated? if you moved to australia, fell in love and then had a child but also a devastating accident while supporting your family, would you want to be deported unceremoniously like that? i think not.

I could be wrong, but I had thought that if you were married to a U.S. Citizen then you would be allowed to be in the U.S. too. So, that's why a lot of people marry just for the sake of being able to be citizens, but there has to be proof of the marriage being legitimate (ie, knowing all of your partner's secrets) in order to have it upheld. Or am I just pulling this all from "The Proposal" and that is not real?
This is not one of those laws. Come here illegally, get deported and never be allowed back imo. There are lots of victims from illegal immigration. Starting with those who cannot find work at decent wages because illegals work for pennies.

we all know that there are plenty of laws that really make no sense. people are criminalised for victimless crimes. you are still talking about a human being with feelings, who has a new child and partner.

What is legality? Why is legality as a concept important? It is legal in some countries for women to be stoned for driving cars. Do you think that's okay? Why is it that when we talk about other countries, we uphold morals over law, but when it comes to our own country, suddenly the law is more important than human decency?
If I come to your house, I follow your rules. If I come to your country, I follow your country's laws. If I don't like those rules/laws, I can always carry my hind quarters back home.

So, if you were unemployed, and you had to get a job, would you go out into a field and do the work that the illegal immigrants are doing? My guess is not, my guess is that you will SAY you would do it, but when push came to shove, you would not. Of course, feel free to disagree, but I know that most people do not like backbreaking work for little pay and I highly doubt that you would ever succumb to that.
And whose fault is it that the illegal immigrant will work for low pay? Is it their fault that they are starving, or is it the fault of a) the corrupt government and public structures of their home country and b) the people who hire the illegal labor? It is a massive piece of victim blaming to say that someone who is hungry and starving and poor is at fault for doing what they can to support themselves and their families.

Let's put it simple (again). Give me your address. I'll come and move in, eat your food, sleep in your bed. YOU can pay MY expenses. That's fair, right? I didn't think so. Until you PM me your address and start paying my bills, then you're just full of hot air. Period. Practice what you preach.

Okay, well, I live in a college dorm.
Bravo! 100 stars for you if I could.
