[QUOTE="fidosim"][QUOTE="ParonoiaAgent"]

But aren't we on THEIR soil

ParonoiaAgent

No, we're on our soil.

but they owned it prior to us


So? The natives immigrated from Eurasia, so by your logic we should be giving the land back to the plants/animals that lived here first.

the illegal immigrants are going around the system to enter the country. If they can't even come in legally, what makes you think that they'll follow any other law we have?

Do you mean close as in let nobody across under any circumstances.... or close as in make it harder for people to illegally cross, but still allow people to cross through proper channels? I am confused.

peronally, if it were up to me, I would set up a giant steel reinforced wall on the US/Mexico border, were the gates are heavily guarded. and the immigration pollicy was originally meant for immigrants coming thru ellis island. thats why we have the statue of liberty.

As long as people com ein legaly, its fine. However, illegal immigrants take jobs away form legals, dont pay taxes, and get the same protection we get for free. If there legal, no problems, illegal, get out of here, and enter legally, you need to pay your taxes!

If you ask me, that's just a stereotype. Most U.S citizens are worse.

That's a stereotype? It's a stereotype that they don't pay taxes? It's a stereotype that they get jobs here? You lost the last shred of credibility you had :S

Don't you think that many of them BECOME citizens after crossing the border? You seem to think immigrants don't try to contribute to the economy. According, to you immigrants are lazy. So you're more than likely calling the "founders" of this country lazy

Stop putting words in my mouth, I don't like it. I never said immigrants are lazy. Grow up. Are you 12? Are you too young to walk down to the library and get a U.S. history book?

You ARE NOT saying what I meant. I said what I meant. It's pointless to discuss with you, so I'm leaving. You're too ignorant about the topic to come up with anything relevant.

[QUOTE="krazykillaz"]Absolutely not. We're supposed to welcome immigrants with open arms.resevl4rlz

tell that to the 100,00 of illegals that shouldnt be part of this country

Actually I think it's like 10 million or something like that. I think we should limit immigration. We need to secure our borders, make the process of immigration easier, but still keep the requirement of English being needed to become a citizen. In fact I think that should be required to even enter this country on anything other than a passport.

I'm actually Hispanic, but I think we should be VERY selective of who we let into the country. Not because of white supremacy, but because of over population. I'd rather let other countries deal with their starving immigrant then have all of them move here and possibly make things worst. I think we should continue to allow immigration, but it should definitely be a lot more stricter.

Also before you are allowed in the country you should be atleast 50% literate in English to show you are trying.

I'm going to assume you mean close the border to illegal immigrants/mexico. Of course we should close the border! It just seems unfair that some people can just hop over the border, into America, speak their own language (I have no idea why some people think that spanish should be one of our main languages) and take jobs, while some people wait, study, learn our language to come to this country and make a better living. It just seems like a slap to the face to the people who do the right thing.

Even if you guys closed it, those pesky mexicans would somehow find another way to get in.
