    Well here is how to become a legal citizen

    Generally, there are nine requirements:

    An applicant for naturalization must be admitted to the United States as a "lawful permanent resident" commonly referred to as one who possesses "green card" status. There is only one exception to this requirement: If an applicant has served in the U.S. armed forces during war, that person may be naturalized without first becoming a permanent resident if they were in the U.S. upon induction or enlistment into our military.

    Continuous residence in the U.S. for at least five years immediately preceding the applicant's filing for naturalization. Continuous residence is not the same thing as physically present here. That is, one must maintain their status as a "legal permanent resident" but not necessarily be physically inside the borders of the U.S. to accomplish that. For example, if one is overseas for a portion of this period, maintaining an address location and paying one's state and federal taxes may help ensure continuity of residence for this requirement. Also, if overseas for anymore than a few months, it may be advisable to obtain a "travel document" prior to departing. This may be done on INS Form I-131. Only three years "continuous residence" are required if the applicant is filing for naturalization based upon marriage.

    Actual physical residence (within the state in which the petition is filed) during at least the three months immediately before filing for naturalization is another requirement.

    Physical presence within the U.S. for a total of at least one half of the period of required continuous residence. That is, two and a half years for most applicants and one and a half years for spouses of U.S. Citizens.

    The ability to read, write and speak ordinary English unless they are physically unable to do so due to a disability such as being blind or deaf, or suffer from a developmental disability or mental impairment. Those over 50 years old on the date of filing who have lived here for a total of at least 20 years after admission as a permanent resident and those who are over 55 and have been legal permanent residents for at least 15 years are also exempt from this requirement.

    A basic understanding the fundamentals of U.S. history and government.

    Good moral character and an affinity for the principles of the U.S. Constitution.

    Continuous residence (but not necessarily physical presence) in the U.S. from the date of filing the naturalization application up to the date of being sworn in as a citizen.

    Applicants should be at least 18 years of age at the time of filing. Certain exceptions exist, however, for the children of other permanent residents who are seeking naturalization.

    It's almost funny but in such a sad way the these are included. We could probably get rid of about one-third or one-half of our current population (legal or illegal) based on these three alone..haha

    Maybe we should deport deadbeats who don't pay their debts or homeless people who eat up public funds as well? Where does the entitlement exactly stop? Say when...

I love my job, and I want to keep it, which is why health care COSTS need to be handled much more than just giving everyone health INSURANCE. I understand the need for public health, immunization programs, std and hiv control and testing, TB, etc. But I certainly don't think it is the responsibility of the people of the United states to pay for someone from ANOTHER COUNTRIES health care. That has nothing to do with being burnt out at my job asshole, it has to do with being realistic and thining our limited resources are better served when given to the people of this country. Sorry if that conflicts with the ridiculous view that everyone should get everything paid for by people who have been successful in life.

    "Illegal immigration is the movement of people across national borders in a way that violates the immigration laws of the destination country." That's a total wiki-answer for you but I think it's a pretty good one.

    Easier to see now: CONservative governMENt

    Also, and to be direct and clear to your assumption, this is not "conservative" or "liberal" based upon how you typically define these terms on the board, but in the actual political and theoretical definitions. The Dems aren't "liberal" nor are the Reps "conservative" in our government.

    Another problem caused by illeagal immigration.

    We all just filled out a census (or should have) when that is calculated they know how much funding/personnel are need for fire, police, schools, etc. So, for example, when you have a town whose population from the census says 5000 people, but in reality it has 10,000. The resources for that town are dramatically decreased.

    Yes very true - which bring us to the next topic - the cause and reason the government is trying to get a national id card for everyone (citizens or not). Even with good intentions, the government is so disdained and distrusted (in many respects it's deserved but not all), they can never accomplish all that much even if they aim too. It merely becomes a self-fulfilling prophecy.

    also I hope that AZ residents realize that their money pays for the cops and the jails that will arrest and house the people that are scooped off the streets....

    Good point. I think aerial posted a thread about this, which included videos demonstrating how this law is already leading to more crime. ;)

    Yeah... how conveniently we choose to ignore our own history. Of course, history is coming back around (or never left), as this law will likely result in the harassment of Native people too. With all the reservations there, Arizona has a huge Native American population. My friends are already talking about needing to get their tribal documents laminated so they can carry them at all times.

    Well, Arizona is a racist state, just like the other 49 states. So that arguments means little to me. What does matter to me is that illegal immigration has already spiraled out of control. The main source of the problem is that Mexico has too many people... so do most other countries, to be fair... but Mexico is dominated by Catholics who do as their Pope says and do not use birth control. Which is fucking stupid. In my opinion, it's the people who make stupid decisions who need to deal with the consequences of those decisions. At the same time, I can't blame anyone for wanting to come here illegally when we have been so eager to give workers with questionable documentation the shitty, rotten jobs we don't want. So now we have the situation where we can't control our slaves anymore. What did we expect? We all have to deal with our stupid decisions. I don't think enough of us are smart enough to do that.

    are they handing out free crack somewhere?

    you are blaming our immigration problems on the pope and contraceptives? seriously?

    actually in Mexico the Virgin Mary is more prominent then the pope. I willing to bet that if you went to Mexico and did a survey... more people would NOT be able to name the pope then would be able to...

    get a clue, seriously


    DAMN those catholic mexicans :lol:
