If 1 million Mexicans entered legally, but later overstayed their Visas, would that bother you less?

Hundreds of thousands of Canadians are illegally overstaying in the United States right now.

Because Canadians are not required to earn their entry into the United States (passports-only), many enter and stay illegally (READ ARTICLE ABOVE).

Do you consider "overstaying" an acceptable form of illegal immigration?
Or does it really come down to race/culture that determines which illegals you are willing to allow?

Answer:
I think it would bother them less because it is no longer considered "illegal" entry". I have heard that the Irish are the ones with the biggest % of overstays.
no. i would still kick ALL of them out!
No, but if there were only hundreds of thousands of Mexicans here illegally, our number of illegals would be millions and millions less than it is. The numbers, not the specific people, is the issue. Too many poor people who don't make enough money to pay enough taxes to cover their children's education, much less the costs of other services they and WE use means that their better life is at the expense of our children, sick and poor.

Overstaying is no different from illegal entry as far as the burden goes, unless the people who come by plane pay more taxes and speak English, which does lessen the burden.

You are trying to find racism when it is not the point that drives most of us, at all.
i think it is wrong but those kind of things are always happening . there is even undocumented Americans in Mexico and very few bother to talk about it and i don't think they bother Mexico .

what i think that should happen is that anyone who has kept him/herself out of troubles was given the opportunity to stay for good if that's what they want or to fix their status and then leave .

the current immigration laws are not according to what its going on and need to be fixed . of course it will not be easy but a legalization of all who are here is way easier than being trying to capture as much as half of the population in some cities . what anti-immigrant group propose is just unenforceable just like both democrats and republicans had said so in many occasions .

here something interesting to read :

there is as many as 1.5 million undocumented Asians which could not possibly be deported either, who live in the USA and should not be ignored in case of a legalization :

(1) I am all in favor of deporting whomever is here illegally. I don't care where they've come from.

(2) I think it is fair to say that Canadians who are here illegally did not come here to have an anchor baby (funded by Medicaid), molest a little kid, kill a woman, collect food stamps, work under a STOLEN Social Security number (& send the money back to wherever the heck), spread communicable diseases or piss about in a U.S. prison honing their criminal skills & connections.

(3) Stop being a CRYBABY by trying to make this into a RACE issue. It IS NOT! As you may have noticed, many of the law enforcement officers being persecuted for trying to stop this invading swarm are also HISPANIC! Spare me.
No such thing as acceptable illegal immigration.
It does not matter what country the immigrants are coming from... illegal immigration is still illegal. Besides I am not too fond of Canada either... :)

There are not millions of Canadians in America illegally. Canadians in America work, pay tax, pay for health care, and the majority of them in the U.S. are not here to traffic drugs!
Get off the Canadian kick! It's Mexico that is the huge problem - just look at the numbers!!!

WHAT PART OF ILLEGAL DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND!? If you overstay your visa, you are an illegal alien criminal - you are breaking the law!
I would consider it OVERSTAYING and NOT acceptable.
*chuckles*

We don't want one illegal in the U.S, much less 1 MILLION. I don't care where the illegal alien came from it needs to go back home and take it's offspring with it.
