Have you read that the Illegal raids are splitting up families...?
Answer:
These stories do NOT bring a tear to my eye nor a lump to my throat. I love children as much as the next person, but I do not believe in using ones children to try to skirt the law and obtain special considerations for oneself. This is what illegal immigrant parents do - they use their children. They know full well what the risks are, but they go ahead and do it, anyways. Then, they all scream and cry "Unfair!" when they get caught. I do NOT feel any sympathy because I know for a fact that these people are given the option of taking their children with them when they are deported - so if they find their families split apart, they should only blame themselves. Personally, I do not consider those children US citizens. I have heard that this law is possibly going to be corrected and the sooner, the better! This "anchor baby" law only acts as another enticement to illegal immigrants. The only way a child born in the USA should have automatic citizenship is if at least one of the parents has US citizenship. Otherwise, the child should only have the citizenship of its parents.
Maybe someday they will round up the red neck spite mongers like you--that would be an improvement.
I'd rather hear you bragging about how much you've got.
Every time you-all stuffed your self-righteous face you were accepting the right of illegal aliens to grow you food.
Anyway, who the hell listens to you?
Sorry, but why is that my problem? If a raid breaks up a family they are doing to to themselves! They shouldn't even be here. They should all be back in their home country, not breaking the law. If they were not breaking the law they wouldn't have to worry about being deported.
This includes the anchor babies. While I feel sorry that an innocent child is taken from the parents that doesn't give the parents the right to be here because of the child. They don't get auto citizenship.
I think that if the parents are illegal and are deported, the children must go with the parents even though they are citizens. The kids are only citizens because the parents did something ILLEGAL.
Yes. They are splitting up American families by making people in the US sick from TB to Hepatitis...not to mention ID theft and drugs they bring.
I agree that they should be held accountable for their actions. If it splits up families then that is their own faults...they KNEW that was possible when they came here illegally.
Yeah, jail tends to do that. Maybe if they would STOP COMING HERE ILLEGALLY, they wouldn't HAVE these problems.
Gee, what's so tough about figuring that out?
When I read the title of your question, I thought, "Oh great, another illegal sympathizer." But, I was pleasantly suprised! You put it beautifully.
The raids are not splitting up families. The illegals are doing that to themselves. Why would they take their children when they plan to come right back? It's easier to travel without children. And their jobs are often held for them. Not to mention that they love to pose and cry for the news cameras after a raid. That's a very convenient way to try to make us look cruel, and they'll use any tactic they can find to continue abusing the tax payers of this country. I'm not falling for it. It's just more propaganda to promote unchecked illegal immigration for 'humanitarian' purposes. When do they become responsible for their own actions? They are using their own children. That is pathetic.
First, I doubt the raids are illegal. If the government suspects people in any given area are in the United States illegally, they are within their jurisdictional rights to raid the area and withdraw said illegals.
Second, I do agree that the rampant abuse of the Fourteenth Amendment should be stopped. There are far too many illegal immigrants here having babies which will then be supported by those of us who were born here, live here and contribute to society as a whole.
Third, it's not an internet misconception that people born here are automatically citizens. It's the truth.
But none of the politicians will step up and play ball. They're too chicken.
Yes they do split up American Families the law is just an idea with on piece of paper with word
It is a shame for families to be split up but I don't know what illegal raids you are referring to. If you are talking about raids on illegals then I would think that it is the illegals themselves that are responsible for the breakup of their families. I would never have put my family in the position of crossing into another country illegally and place them in the situation of being broken apart. I have sympathy for the situation but not the people. If I rob a bank, I will be a criminal; I doubt if anybody would have any sympathy for my family being broken up by me committing a crime. This is the thing that people just do not understand; IT IS ILLEGAL TO ENTER THE US WITHOUT FOLLOWING THE ENTRANCE LAWS. IT IS A CRIME AND THE PEOPLE THAT DO IT FOR WHATEVER REASONS ARE CRIMINALS NOT POOR DOWNTRODDEN FAMILIES.
if you were offered what they are getting you would do the same sometimes it is sad because what goes up comes down I don"t think they have to figure it out they know exactly what their doing and if they don"t there is help for them that is why we pay taxes we need to stop watching tv thinking it is just a movie it is for real
In the eyes of the law, you are wrong when you state that being born here does not make you a citizen. This is from the U.S. government website - search on citizenship and you will find:
______________________________...
The Supreme Court, through case law, has created a guideline for U.S. citizenship. The following outlines the rulings of the Court:
The 14th Amendment completely controls the status of U.S. citizenship and prevents the involuntary cancellation of citizenship.
All persons born in the United States are citizens of the United States.
This applies to children born to legal and illegal residents.
This does not apply to children of foreign citizens employed in any diplomatic or official capacity.
Congress has the power to define acts of expatriation (i.e., loss of citizenship).
A person must voluntarily relinquish U.S. citizenship.
It is constitutional to presume it to have been a voluntary act until and unless proved otherwise by the actor.
Congress may revoke citizenship involuntarily if it has been obtained unlawfully.
Congress has the power to define citizenship outside birth in the U.S.
Congress can set different citizenship requirements for children born to American mothers versus American fathers.
Congress can require that U.S. citizenship must be established by a certain age for it to be recognized.

by the way, John McCain was born in Panama.
They know the consequences of breaking the law, yet they do it anyway...putting their children in the position as well. Only the children do not have a choice.
I am more concerned with citizens families who are affected by illegals,Lets not forget Ramos and Campeons kids! Illegal Aliens' Unstoppable
Third World Crime Wave In US
By Frosty Wooldridge
2-1-4
Last summer, in Boulder, Colorado, eight illegal aliens raped eight American women. The aliens fled back to Mexico. One was caught. In a nearby city of Longmont, a used car dealer was driven out of business because he suffered so much theft from his lot that he bankrupted. An illegal alien killed a California cop, John Marsh, last year. Robberies and break-ins have become the norm in California. They've become the pattern in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina and dozens of other states. But the sobering realities concerning these crimes point to one fact--they are illegal aliens. They are importing themselves into this country with a vengeance. They are deadly, pernicious and organized. They represent the worst of what is common in the Third World.
In her recent scathing report, 'THE ILLEGAL ALIEN CRIME WAVE' by brilliant investigative reporter, Heather MacDonald, our country is being assaulted by a crime wave that grows steadily and viciously.
A full 95% of all outstanding warrants for homicide, which totaled 1,500 last year in Los Angeles, pointed to illegal aliens. Soberingly, two thirds of all fugitive felony warrants, totaling a horrifying 17,000, were for illegal aliens. To make matters worse, in 1995 a report showed that 60% of the 20,000-strong 18th Street gang in southern California was composed of illegal aliens. That gang collaborates with the Mexican Mafia on drug distribution schemes, extortion and drive-by assassinations. They commit assault and robberies every day of the week. A night of crime to them is like a day of work for American citizens.
How did it come about and why is it spreading? In 1979, Los Angeles Police Department Chief Daryl Gates enacted Special Order 40. Astoundingly, as if insanity took the front row seat in their minds, leaders of dozens of cities from San Francisco to Miami and New York City adopted this special order. This law prohibits police officers from arresting illegal aliens. In reality, it?s a carte blanche invitation for crime to grow in our country, putting citizens at risk for their lives.
"If I see a deportee from the Mara Salvatrucha prison in El Salvador crossing the street in LA, I can't touch him," said a Los Angeles police officer. "I can't arrest him for an immigration felony."
Boulder, Colorado practices the same 'sanctuary' policy for illegal aliens. The mayor of the city openly encourages illegal aliens by making sure the police chief does not arrest illegals. Some of Boulder's immigration lawyers were so bold as to offer publicly announced classes for illegal aliens on how to avoid arrest, detention and deportation by immigration agents. The result in that town shows a tripling of the illegal alien population as well as jobs taken away from citizens and the eight violent rapes.
Not far away in Denver last week, an illegal alien, Javier Cruz-Caballero, purposely ran down police officer, Robert Bryant, while the officer operated a radar gun in a school walk zone. Witnesses saw the Mexican national rev up his engine while taking dead-aim at the officer. Bryant flew 30 feet through the air while suffering a broken leg and head lacerations. He could have easily been killed.
At a greater level, New York's Mayor Bloomberg supports illegal alien crime by maintaining a 'sanctuary policy' in that city. Last year, four illegals raped and killed a New York jogger. That crime was one of thousands of crimes committed by illegal aliens who are protected from the law. But more horrific in impact of this loss of the rule-of-law, former Mayor Guiliana practiced Special Order 40. Several illegal aliens protected by the Order participated in 9/11. The death toll reached 2,800, but the impact on our nation reverberates today. Yet, Special Order 40 continues full force in protecting the estimated 10 million illegal aliens in our country.
However, thousands of them are killing, raping, robbing and driving illegally in our country. Over 400,000 deportees continue walking around free in our country. The ones that commit crimes and are caught make up a full 29% of our prison populations. They cost American taxpayers nearly $1 billion annually to feed, house and care for them in our prisons. And, yet, Special Order 40, continues as if it was a fig leaf for welcoming hardened alien criminals.
These examples of illegal immigrant crime depict a growing menace to our functioning society. While a sleepy American public watches idly and a Congress refuses to enforce our borders while mayors adopt the 'sanctuary policy', we citizens receive an average of 2,200 illegals every 24 hours, seven days a week, 365 days per year. Since the Amnesty policy was announced, the invasion intensifies with greater numbers.
Where does that leave you? If you're in California, you're planning on moving to Idaho or Montana because it's already too late. With over 3.5 million illegals, the crime wave is beyond stopping. If you're in Georgia, you're probably stewing under your breath, but you don't have a clue that it's going to get worse. In Chicago, they either take jobs or rob banks or set up drug, prostitution and theft rings. If you're in Florida, it is no longer an American city. Houston is just as bad. It grows worse in every city in America.
It's called THIRD WORLD MOMENTUM.
The key is to understand that in the Third World--corruption, crime, child prostitution, bashing in peoples' heads, torture and worse is the NORM. Why? Because the rule-of-law no longer applies. Today, in America, concerning illegal immigration, our public officials who were sworn to uphold the Constitution have abstained from their oaths of office. We're forced NOT to talk about it via being politically correct, yet we are the victims of our own silence. Because the American public still hasn't figured this crisis out or keeps thinking it will go away on its own.IT IS GOING TO GET WORSE and you or your loved ones will become victims given enough time. With Special Order 40 in your city, another 9/11 can't be far off!

Some people are so clueless that they think by "illegal' you are reffering to the raid, when clearly you are referring to the criminals here illegally.
We have enought of them. Its got to stop.
Ok so when I take your close family (parents, kids, brothers and sisters) and send them back to Europe how are you gonna feel?
Is this a serious question??????????????
This 'wonderful nation' actually should belong to the Natives, Mexicans being some of them. So if you want to talk 'history' out, you're not the only one that reads and knows. Gosh, are you part of the KKK or something? Or do you need to go to Oz to get a heart??
And for Daisy, how ignorant can you get??? First of all, how would a child help? They can't sponsor them until they are 21 and judges with the same amount of heart that you have don't care. I would say I hope something like that happens to you, but I don't, I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy. You act like if you know every illegal person that has come here, and guess what? You don't. So it's none of your business to act like you do.
Wow, seriously, how cold can you people get?? With neighbors like these, I'd rather stay where I'm from, just like many people. However, like I've said millions of times, they don't come here to listen to gringos talk crap, they come to work. The U.S. would be nothing without all of these people, I just hope one day you guys learn.
And yeah sure...ALL illegals are here trying to rape Americans...whatever...
