Do you think that illegal alien gang members should get amnesty?

The Kennedy/Bush/McCain immigration bill includes a provision which grants amnesty to illegal alien gang members. I am not making this up. I must assume that president Bush, Kennedy, Specter, McCain, and Graham believe that illegal alien gang members are only doing jobs that American gang members won't do!

Answer:
NO!

This is a huge point with me. It only screens out those with THREE misdemeanors (including DUIs) or an AGRAVATED felony, and gang membership isfine as long as you sign something saying you won't be in one any more.

This bill is riddled, however, it isn't just a matter of one point or five. It seems intentionally designed NOT to succeed at reducing illegal immigration. It even cuts the fence already signed into law in half.

Oh, wicked, that simply isn't true. Law gets signed and they apply day one. Day 2 government has to be done with its 24-hour-only time period for a background check and they are legal UNTIL such time as the triggers go into effect, which frankly may be never.

wicked, in effect it is. It is a 24 hour turn around maximum. The Z visas and that entire process isn't triggered until the triggers are met.
i dont think anyone should get Amnesty
no one should get amnesty
no. not gang members because they f*ck it up for the rest of the ones that are here for a better life...but dont try to mix them together to try to make people go against the amnesty...why should alot suffer for the mistakes of a few
I'm an anti-illegal myself, but could you post a reference or something in an Edit? I'd like to see that for myself.

To answer the question, I think illegal gangbangers should be lined up and shot - let God grant them "amnesty".
In part what you're saying is true but there are also many provisions which have to occur for this to happen and much stiffer penalties for an infraction of the limits put on former gang members.So what you're saying is true but incomplete.
See - this is one of the many reasons why AMNESTY is a very,very bad idea.

Your question is typically framed: "I have made up my mind about immigration, and you dare dis-agree with me!"

That's NOT the way to solve this or any other problem for that matter. Problems are solved by looking at them in TOTALITY -- This problem is not as simple as some would like to make it.

America has been a beacon of hope over the years, and it should stay that way under reasonable constraints.

Even a pro-immigration person like me doesn't want any "felonious moron" living next to me.

On the other hand, there are millions of immigrants who are already working hard and would love to come out of the shadows to contribute positively -- help make America even stronger.

The Senate Bill is a BILL -- Yes, BILL -- still subject to debate and amendments.

It a starting point for debate, and by not allowing debate nothing will be solved.

"Hard line" and "Soft line" must be meshed to reach a compromise Middle Ground, otherwise the alternative is NO BILL, NO SOLUTION -- just empty bigoted rhetoric going nowhere, detention Gulags -- and of course: The Gangs will still be roaming around free.

Here are some articles to support my position -- I would like ALL to read them and if you do not agree with the content -- then offer a solution other that "Chest Thumping" and baseless "Mean Spirited" Xenophobic chants!

No one should get it, but if they do, they better pass a complete background history from the US and their country, and they need to start paying back all benefits they stole,,,,,,
NO AMNESTY!!

Gang members should be executed upon being caught.
NO amnesty. We need immigrants but just the legal kind. WE SHOULD NEVER REWARD CRIMINAL ACTIONS. Coming here illegally is a criminal act your reasons are a mute point the law is the law.
Illegal aliens suck, illegal alien gang members suck more.
it depends on what u call illegals. if u think hispanics are illegals u are wrong. i doubt any illegal would take a risky choice of being in a gang, what do they gain?
NO..... None of them should get amnesty.
No they shouldn't. Those are the people that need to be deported.
They should get no amnesty at all .It does'nt matter if they are members of a gang or not. They broke the law and should be deported. besides would'nt that help improve our neighborhoods if the gangs were deported and made the citizens there happier?
Yes, I'm a human too! I'm sick of the white man trying to keep us down!
No they shouldn't. If they do, why not just give a pardon to each and every gang member with citizenship sitting in jail for serious crimes? It makes just as much sense to me,it's ridiculous.
