With the immigration bill what does everyone think about the Illegals stating that leaving is not an Option?
here is the story

Answer:
Leaving is not an option? That is just so in-your-face Americans! What if someone moved into your home and wouldn't leave? Would you care if they offered you money to stay, but either way they weren't gonna leave? What if their kids used your home as their school address? That's just disrespecting you in a major way. And it's wrong. It's just morally, ethically and legally wrong.
If you are a good parent, you raise your children not to be lawbreakers. If everyone broke the law because it was more fun or because they profited from doing it, we would have to live in forts, to protect us from people robbing us (cause they can't/won't work so it's "not an option").
I worked with a woman from India (legal immigrant). She was unhappy cause her brother lost out on the Visa lotto, but resigned. She said he would try again next year. When he does come to America, he has a home and a job waitng for him. Man, what a slap in the face this new immigration amnesty is to her and her family. Here they are, abiding by our laws and enduring separation. And the people who break our laws, thumb their noses in our faces, are gonna be rewarded. It's not right, it's not fair, and it sets a bad example for our children. It tells them they can break the law and get over if they can manage good publicity. Do we really want people bullying their way into our country?
Yeah, I've heard that Mexico is desperately poor, and that's why we should just open our borders and let all the Mexicans who can get here become citizens. But in Dafur, they murder women and children, hacking them apart. Why isn't Bush offering them the same citizenship he is offering Mexicans? I smell $money$. There *is* alot of money in Mexico. Mexico produces alot of oil, like the way the United States is heading, the money only goes to the rich. No wonder Mexico wants us to take in it's people; the illegal aliens here send so much money home. By doing this, they keep the poor people from rising up. My daughter came home from class and told me that the reason welfare started in the United States was to prevent civil unrest. By giving people just enough to get by, a country can prevent otherwise peaceful citizens from committing crime just to feed their families. She told me this after the poor rose up and rioted in Brazil(which had no welfare) raiding some supermarkets.
What gets to me is the Catholic church. I never paid much attention, after all, Christian is Christian (sort of). But I read where the Catholic population in the United States is declining. People still baptize their kids, but they don't really go to church, and they use birth control (which the pope hates), so have smaller families, i.e. less Catholics, less financial support. But Mexico is mostly tradtional Catholics. They actually listen to the pope, have large families, i.e. more Catholics (moremoneymoremoney). So is it any wonder that the Catholic church is supporting Mexicans breaking American law? They excommunicate Catholics breaking church law, but it serves their financial and political goals(after all, if the illegal aliens become citizens, they can be pressured to vote for Catholic agendas. There are some parts of the county right now, that want legal aliens to be able to vote in elections without being citizens. Can illegal aliens voting be far behind?).
What really surprises me is that I'm not the only one who thinks like this. More people feel the same way I do. But whether it's Republicans or Democrats, the people we elected don't care how we feel. They are saying "how can we make them legal", when we are saying everything I said and more. They don't speak to any of the points I or anyone else has made. They don't hear us and they don't care. I've been paying taxes for 20 years and they would rather listen to the employers who pay immigrants less than they would pay Americans. Are we gonna have to do away with electing representatives, and instead make laws by everyone voting on them? Maybe then we will have a governemtn which actually reflects how we feel, instead of who paid big money contributions!
Tomatoes and Cheap Labor
This should make everyone think, be you Democrat, Republican or Independent
From a California school teacher - - -"As you listen to the news about the student protests over illegal immigration, there are some things that you should be aware of:
I am in charge of the English-as-a-second-language department at a large southern California high school which is designated a Title 1 school, meaning that its students average lower socioeconomic and income levels.
Most of the schools you are hearing about, South Gate High, Bell Gardens , Huntington Park , etc., where these students are protesting, are also Title 1 schools.
Title 1 schools are on the free breakfast and free lunch program. When I say free breakfast, I'm not talking a glass of milk and roll -- but a full breakfast and cereal bar with fruits and juices that would make a Marriott proud. The waste of this food is monumental, with trays and trays of it being dumped in the trash uneaten. (OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK)
I estimate that well over 50% of these students are obese or at least moderately overweight. About 75% or more DO have cell phones. The school also provides day care centers for the unwed teenage pregnant girls (some as young as 13) so they can attend class without the inconvenience of having to arrange for babysitters or having family watch their kids. (OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK)
I was ordered to spend $700,000 on my department or risk losing funding for the upcoming year even though there was little need for anything; my budget was already substantial. I ended up buying new computers for the computer learning center, half of which, one month later, have been carved with graffiti by the appreciative students who obviously feel humbled and grateful to have a free education in America . (OUR TAX DOLLARS AT WORK)
I have had to intervene several times for young and substitute teachers whose classes consist of many illegal immigrant students here in the country less then 3 months who raised so much hell with the female teachers, calling them "Putas" whores and throwing things that the teachers were in tears.
Free medical, free education, free food, day care etc., etc., etc. Is it any wonder they feel entitled to not only be in this country but to demand rights, privileges and entitlements?
To those who want to point out how much these illegal immigrants contribute to our society because they LIKE their gardener and housekeeper and they like to pay less for tomatoes: spend some time in the real world of illegal immigration and see the TRUE costs.
Higher insurance, medical facilities closing, higher medical costs, more crime, lower standards of education in our schools, overcrowding, new diseases etc., etc, etc. For me, I'll pay more for tomatoes.
We need to wake up. The guest worker program will be a disaster because we won't have the guts to enforce it.
Does anyone in their right mind really think they will voluntarily leave and return?
There are many hardworking Hispanic/American citizens that contribute to our country and many that I consider my true friends. We should encourage and accept those Hispanics who have done it the right and legal way.
It does, however, have everything to do with culture: A third-world culture that does not value education, that accepts children getting pregnant and dropping out of school by 15 and that refuses to assimilate, and an American culture that has become so weak and worried about "politically correct" that we don't have the will to do anything about it.
If this makes your blood boil, as it did mine, forward this to everyone you know.
CHEAP LABOR?
Isn't that what the whole immigration issue is about?
Business doesn't want to pay a decent wage.
Consumers don't want expensive produce.
Government will tell you Americans don't want the jobs.
But the bottom line is cheap labor. The phrase "cheap labor" is a myth, a farce, and a lie. there is no such thing as "cheap labor."
Take, for example, an illegal alien with a wife and five children. He takes a job for $5.00 or $6.00/hour. At that wage, with six dependents, he pays no income tax, yet at the end of the year, if he files an Income Tax Return, he gets an "earned income credit" of up to $3,200 free.
He qualifies for Section 8 housing and subsidized rent.
He qualifies for food stamps.
He qualifies for free (no deductible, no co-pay) health care.
His children get free breakfasts and lunches at school.
He requires bilingual teachers and books.
He qualifies for relief from high energy bills.
If they are or become, aged, blind or disabled, they qualify for SSI. Once qualified for SSI they can qualify for Medicare. All of this is at (our) taxpayer's expense.
He doesn't worry about car insurance, life insurance, or homeowners insurance.
Taxpayers provide Spanish language signs, bulletins and printed material.
He and his family receive the equivalent of $20.00 to $30.00/hour in benefits.
Working Americans are lucky to have $5.00 or $6.00/hour left after paying their bills and his.
The American taxpayers also pay for increased crime, graffiti and trash clean-up.
Cheap labor? YEAH RIGHT! Wake up people. THESE ARE THE QUESTIONS WE SHOULD BE ADDRESSING TO THE PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES FOR EITHER PARTY. 'AND WHEN THEY LIE TO US AND DON'T DO AS THEY SAY, WE SHOULD REPLACE THEM AT ONCE!'
THIS HAS GOT TO BE PASSED ALONG TO AS MANY AS POSSIBLE OR WE WILL ALL GO DOWN THE DRAIN BECAUSE A FEW DON'T CARE.
I'll volunteer to drive a deportation bus.
Maybe its not an option because there is NO work in their countries...and the only way to survive is to stay here!
that's fine.. if our government would enforce our current laws, then we wouldn't even have to worry about deportation... with no job, no money, no government aid, no edcuation, no anything... they would go away on their own... or be homeless- good luck to them
There you have it from the horses mouth.
They won't register, they won't pay the 5K, and they won't go back to their native countries to apply for legal immigration.
Start rounding them up NOW, build the wall and don't let them back in.
Contact your legislators and tell them in NO uncertain terms that if they vote for this piece of crap legislation that you will vote them out on the street.
