Why many americans want illegals aliens out when most of the americans came from an illegal background too?

I have seen a lot on "MyTend" that many americans hate or want illegal inmigrants out, when probably themselves came from an illegal background too, at least they are natived americans or claim to be the ancestors from the first people who form the 13 colonies back in the 18th century . My great father came from England illegally to this country before world war II, looking for a better life . He said that even in those days the people who were allready here and who were also immigrants didn't have much sympathy for the new ones moving into this country. I guess people think they are real americans just because they were born here but is not fear, not to give the oportunity to the new ones who are looking for a better life. Many people suggest that only good and educated people should move to this country and not criminals,well if you guys study History you will find out that many criminals were sent to the Americas along with a lower class of Europeans and slaves.

Answer:
i agree with you .but people don't look at it that way. they weren't laws and stuff when the first settlers arrived........ i bet the indians wouldn't have been so friendly if they would have known .......... oh_hell
just cuz
Understand this, any person here, illegally, can get a work visa unless they are criminals. The work visa can let them EARN the money to become a US Citizen, so just how much leniency do you want them to have? If they have been here for 6 months or more and have not made a move to legalize, BOOT'EM!
Well we do not need any more criminals here.
Too true
Americans (and other nations) are against legal and illegal immigrants as they influence the county, its culture, in some cases represent thread to their life (terrorism), represent different religions and so on. In other words immigrants disturbs ordinary people's comfort zone.
Because it's ILLEGAL.
Good intentions or not, you are violating the law, and in doing so, insulting the millions of LEGAL immigrants who busted their hump to get into the country legally and for the same reasons.
Comparing today's laws to those of the WW2 era really don't fly, what happened then happened then, and last I checked, Mexico wasn't being attacked by Germany in recent months.
It's the fear of losing what you or your ancestors built and aquired with hard work. Noone likes to part from things, be it money, rights or goods, he already owns.

Plus, "back then" the US were "empty land", they just had to kill and rob some natives (insert sarcasm here). Today, it's not. People own property; property they don't want to give up or share or give away.
Because the illegals I see everyday living in the border state of Arizona do not want a better life. They make no effort to assimilate. If our life is better why not become more Americanized?

They want to turn America into filthy Mexico.
When you drive by certain neighborhoods you can tell which ones are Mexican because they are so filthy and run down. These people come here (and trash the border costing us money on their way in) and then they commit crime here and have babies that are put on welfare who then have NO work ethic because they are raised to expect hand-outs.

They will work in abusive conditions for slave wages which ruins it for our own working class, because it takes away our position on demanding worker's rights.

Can you really justify making Americans lives worse so that foreign criminals can have a better one? I don't think so.
Just because americans were once immigrants is not a good argument. I once didn't live in my house and now I don't want anyone else to live in it but those I accept. Even though I am not a proponet against immigrants or immigration, a nation does have the right to say who it does and does not allow into it's country.
Why is it that everyone not called an American is called an Alien...are Americans so ignorant to understand or at least acknowledge that there are other PEOPLE in the world and that the rest of us "non" Americans are not ALIENS< we are PEOPLE!!!

Now to answer your question!
Yea that is so true!!! Why do people want "illegal" people outta America I mean come on they are helping society, they are doing the dirty work most Americans would not like to do, they are settling for less pay, they are doing jobs that should be paid more but because they are illegal they are paid less. They are here illegally for a reason, why not just let them be, or at least help them, do not try to get them deported unless they are posing as a hazourd. Just let them be and carry on with your life. So I totally agree with what you posted, and people should just move on with their life and not "try" to get others into trouble. After all no one is hurting anyone...right!!!
Because everybody is a son of a big mother. I remember when USA did a law to send out all Philippines from the Country. Then, come Pearl Harbour attack and they need soldiers. So, they took off the new law and after that Philippines men were helping to form a force to fight in Asia. In one day 70 thousand Philippines men sword American flag.
You make a valid point,however times change, circumstances change and we must adapt with change.Im not for discrimination,and if someone has been convicted of a crime I feel they shuld be forgiven a second chance as people too change.They may've changed their life around,or maybe were falsely convicted which is not uncommon.As for not wanting imigrants in this country I would say to consider all things such as poulation exposion.Back in the day there was significantly less people whereas today we are absolutely desicrating our natural resources,and we can't keep allowing illeagal immigrnats forever until we run out of jobs and space it will lead to disaster and we must act responsibly,even if we fucked up in the past we have to do the best we can for today.
I suspect that the vast majority of immigrants came through a place like Ellis Island. Hence .....they are legal.

People from Africa have to wait until they are cleared to come into the U.S. They wait for legal status.


Why are the Mexicans exempt from what everybody else has to comply with?
And we are talking about Mexicans since they seem to be the biggest group.
How many of them we got running around the country illegally...15 million?
Because of the amount. The current rate of illegal entry has overwhelmed our infrastructure and deflated wages. Hospitals are closing emergency rooms, Police, Fire and Ambulance services are taking longer and longer to respond. Local and county governments are being choked with social requests and the courts and schools are jammed.

Illegal immigrants do pay some money in taxes but the impact upon the US infrastructures and economy is far more costly than any money received and it is devastating.

Let immigrants in, but slowly giving time to our cities and states to adjust.
thank bush for that !!!!!!!!!!!
Illegals are a large problem now. What happened in our history is not revelant now. The laws were different and have no bearing on the present situation.
What people come here for is not the Reservations where the tribes live, it is the economy and infrastructure and education system built entirely BY and FOR those legally here.

Do your own homework.
I resent your statement that "most Americans came from an illegal background too." Statistics!!!!!!! Mine came from Europe LEGALLY. Those that came over to Ellis Island - LEGAL. Maybe yours were illegal but I highly doubt MOST were illegal.

I don't hate the illegal alien criminal. I hate the fact that they are doing something illegal, taking resources that they are not entitled to, take jobs away from Americans - I hate the action, not the person.
America is all about the documentation so the government can tax the **** out of you. Illegals aren't undocumented.
You are right Mexicans have not been coming to the USA, you said, since 15 million years ego, they could not have, one of the reasons is that there was no Mexico or USA, in those days they where called Aztec's, Maya's, and Inca's and you Europeans still believe the world was flat. As far as why are the Mexicans the biggest group you called immigrants is because they are native American, they did not come from no where they where already here. Europeans came and conquer and kill but they are still here weather you like it or not this is their side of the world and the only immigrants are the rest of you.
get your facts straight if you are ademocrat you can be excused for natural stupidity do you know whay ILLEGAL MEANS it means its criminal .we are not living in the past thats history. stop reading democratic misinterpation of our current laws.with 20 millioncriminal illegals here now, soon we will have all the cost of food shelter clothing medical and education in additionto cost of additioal prisons
I totally agree with what you are saying. I wrote an article once from some stupid questions I saw on MyTend. Everyone thinks Mexicans are all molesters, I asked questions why do people think this way? Americans, Chinese,all raices do crime thats because they have nothing better to do.I know illegals were here first. Its just people are ignorant and stupid , they have nothing better to write but pendejadas So GROW UP LITTLE KIDS and go play with something else!!!
Oh Mikey ,Mikey, Mikey , oh where do I begin? The bottom line is they are "Illegal" and there is a long waiting list of people trying to get "legal status" to enter this country, So, these "illegals" need to wait behind them. Didn't you learn in grammer school its not fair to cut in line, and if you got caught , didn't the make you go to the end of the line? It's as simple as that. And regarding "too hard or impossible to get a green card" Come on dude, don't you know " good things come to those who wait". Just because its to hard, your saying it makes it okay for them to forge documents & steal identities, get real dude.
i was born here i will die here.
It is like horse registries and dog registries. The American Quarter Horse Association was started in l940. You have to start somewhere to help progress and keep track of things.
The Mexicans are not flooding to a growing land in need of people to develop the resources. they are taking advantage of the fact that our country is one of the few with no real policy on illegals. If you go to Mexico and stay beyond the limit allowed for a visit you can be jailed and forcibly deported. Mexicans are coming here for the hand out. We should stop it. Our cities and economies are being destroyed by this flood of people with no real intentions of participating in the maintenance or construction of our society. Their just crapping up our country to throw aside as they've done in Mexico. If they want to build something we'll help them build there own country they don't need to come **** on ours.
