Why do lots of Americans blame immigrants for the potential downfall of society?

America wouldn't exist if it wasn't for immigrants.

Answer:
I think thats a nice opinion of yours, but they just dont know that everyone is really an immigrant. Whites come from europe, and even before them, the native americans came from asia...so really everyone is an immigrant....
IT'S THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT. NOT THE LEGAL IMMIGRANT. GET IT RIGHT.
I don't- I blame liberal secularism.
they blame immigrants becouse they didnt do anything themselves and there is no one else left to blame!
They come in here thinking that they are superior and have to learn their language. Also in areas where there are more immigrants, the crime rate increases.
Not blaming immigrants just illegal immigrants
Well that being the case Mr. why are you saying that
Americans are blaming them? Did you go & get high
or what?
When immirants where usefull they were asccepted.

Right now they are doing more harm and ruining america, dragging it down to third world.

Get it right!
If you paid 10 bucks to get into a nightclub, and when you got inside it was crowded to capacity and you could barely move around, you would be pissed off if you saw people sneaking in through the side door, making it even more tight inside......

Same principle with Illegal aliens.
What is so dang hard to understand
It is not the LEGAL immigrants that are the problem
it is the Illegal Alien Invader Rejects that are the problem
So you can understand (At least I hope)
Legal GOOD
Illegal BAD
Legal GOOD
Illegal BAD
Legal GOOD
Illegal BAD
Legal GOOD
Illegal BAD
i don't blame immigrants - i blame the A.C.L.U., N.O.W., and most other liberal interest groups.
WHAT PART OF ILLEGAL DON'T YOU GET!!!!!!!

Sure this country was build by immigrants. The downfall of this great country are the illegal alien criminals!!!!!!
Americans don't have a problem with legal immigrants; it is the illegal ones they have a problem with.
Yes you are right.. America would not exist if it wasn't for immigrants... and I have not once heard any American blame immigrants for the potential downfall of society...Immigrants bring alot to our country and to our society............ HOWEVER illegal immigrants need to GO! Legal - Good Illegal - Bad
I've heard a lot of people complain about Illegal Immigrants and rightfully so
It's the ones who are here without permissiom. I have a son, college grad, good background, smart as a tack, no record and law-abiding. He applied for a certain job, didn't get because an uneducated immigrant was needed to meet the hiring policy. Thats bull hocky and that what the repubs want. PERIOD.
Of course America wouldn't exist without immigrants. Everybody knows that!! Americans blame, and rightfully so, the ILLEGAL immigrants!!!

If they want to come to the US to get a better life, then they need to become LEGAL US Citizens like the MILLIONS of other immigrants did when they came to the US to get a better life!!!!
Americans need to blame someone for their problems....it used to be the Italians, then the Irish, then the Asians. Last year it was the Arabs, this year it is the immigrants. Next year it will be some other socio-ethnic group.

This kind of discrimination is caused by fear and ignorance. You notice they blame only Mexicans and South Americans today...
I don't blame the immigrants. I blame liberals, corporate scumbag lobbyists, the Bush Administration, and the politically correct sentiment that Americans must sacrifice it's economy, schools, and hospitals for the benefit of exploited illegal alien slave labor who refuse to assimilate.
Illegal immigrants = Crowded schools, roads, hospitals, diseases, drugs, crime etc.


Immigration is good, but if you saturate your country with foreigners you will not have a country for long.
Like a lot of people, you fail to successfully differentiate between two distinct phenomena: One is legal immigration, the process whereby people apply for and obtain citizenship by lawful means in the United States, and the other is ILLEGAL immigration, the means by which corporate types, foreign countries, and all their sympathizers et. al. have been systematically violating US immigration law for some time, now.

No one's saying that immigration, per se, is a negative influence, in fact, the opposite is true. But: As with all things, there is a balance to be maintained, and all such goings-on should be held up to a bright, bright spotlight with all of their facts on public display, so as to ensure the absence of criminality, subversion, or malice in such proceedings.

We live in a Changed World, and the assumptions and practices of 1905 may not be applicable in 2007, and beyond. Almost 6.7 billion people walk the earth today, with more on the way. They can't all live in the United States. We've gone into exponential replication of people, were we to maintain the rate of increase and double, or even triple the number of people in the world by 2100, the curve would literally be off of any chart you'd care to try to draw it on, and we'd be out of fuel and food long before we get there. I'm for managed growth, with plenty of public oversight over the whole business. Say 'no' to illegal immigration...
