    right. what are you getting at? the fence prevents them from becoming illegal immigrants. I thought I covered that in my last post

    this just reminds of the friday the 13th movies...where the girls running around locking all the doors...to keep Jason out...but what she doesnt know.....is hes already in the house..

    no child left behind... give a kid education for 13 years and then tell him to work for minimum wage. COmmon sense huh.

    Maybe denying them all benifits of legal citizens would do a better job..........

    It is pretty dumb, but if it's the dumbest thing you've seen in the U.S. then you've had your eyes closed the whole time. I see dumber things on a daily basis (they just don't cost as much).
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    I will say that I find it very ironic how the world hates the US so much, yet people are willing to crawl, climb, swim, float, run, risk starvation, etc. to get here............Mexico must be a real shit hole.....

    the world doesn't hate the U.S. ... that example would not be an example of irony..... AND MEXICO is not a shit hole.

    its funny people are convinced that the illegal immigrants recieving benefits is somehow hurting our lifestyle.. when people are stillw asting there money at mcdonalds and target??

    have some compassion...they are humans! and whats even funnier is you walk into a convenient store.. and its silence...no one says a word...

    If anyone doesn't think that this isn't a "look how tough we are on illegal immigration" ploy leading up to the elections they are sadly mistaken. A fence is not what is needed. We need a real plan to deal with this situation, and this isn't it.

    have some compassion for those people: it's not easy to run away your homeland... and if you want to complain about your taxes payed, complain about the cost of the wall and the cost of the war in iraq...

    a real plan is very complicated. a fence is a start. it can allow us to focus more on the ones already here. what would you suggest?
