Do you really support legal immigration, here's a stellar example of why you should...?
Answer:
Ya know what? This guy did it right, he WANTED to be a Marine.He gave his life to save his fellow Marines... this is what they call "over and above" and he deserves the Medal of Honor.
If more of the illegals VOLUNTEERED to Serve, I'd have not one problem with awarding him/her Citizenship. They did it during WW II, why not now? If they can't afford to enter thru legal means, why not give them the option of entering the Service to earn their Citizenship?
illegal and legal don't make a diff!
We need segregation to keep the white's out of Mexican business!
So if an illegal did what that legal did, then you would approve of illegals?
We have enough people here already, we don't need more immigrants, legal or illegal.
no, and no= NO
come here legally or don't bother
Thank you. Yes.
By the way, I am of European and First American ancestry.
We are becoming a people. We are only 200 years old or so.
It is an honor to be part of it.
I will remember him, if not by name, at least by respecting his sacrifice in my actions and thoughts.
He was my brother. All legal immigrants are (or sisters! Don't forget them)!
Will the San Diego padres have a "send a dunecoon to allah night" at the old ball park?
As long as you understand that there are hundreds of millions of poor and disadvantaged people in the world and the USA cannot take them all in.
The USA has a finite ( limited ) capacity to absorb immigrants.
I support immigration to a reasonable point in which the USA can economically handle it, same goes for the UK who is taking in alot of immigrants. The world needs to be helped where they are at for the most part.
We really since most of us descended from people who immigrated at some point in time its quite wrong to say we cant have any of it.
Illegals are ...well we need to have zero of that.
He was a rare human,a very brave man.
We have an Obligation, to the legal immigrants because we made a promise to them, but it's being broken. I heard some disturbing news of the H1B visa. If someone tried to find work somewhere else, the company who sponser him could have the visa revoked. THe H1B visa holder is bascially an indentured servant then. I see alot of abuses performed by the company towards these immigrants, and I believe we need to cut back on them until we can fix our law to ensure their safety and they would be treated fairly.
Yes, i support legal immigration with quotas for each country. Closing our borders would not be fair to people who live in war torn countries where genocides take place.
Opening our borders would not be fair to our own people who should always come first regardless of race.
Foreigners from other countries or residents here with loyalty to other countries calling for open borders (amnesty) are literally calling for the destruction of the USA. That's a fact.
the very seed of America is immigration. None of us would be here if our ancestors had not floated here on a boat..
can you imagine what the Indians who are forced to live on government mandated land think of us when the land was theirs to begin with.I bet we Americans sound pretty hypocritical to them
i am very pro-legal, even though i am not that much anti-illegal
in other words, i am not much against illegal immigrants, but i would rather they come in correctly
that man was a true hero indeed
But someone could easily find legal immigrant who committed horrific crimes. It's great that great people come here legally, but I bet there are people who will support blocking Muslims from entering this country. Which would be very wrong.
The real debate is about what to do with illegal immigrants already here. Of course people support legal immigration. What are we going to do with over million people here illegally? Ignore them? Kick them out? Put them through system? What do we do? How do we prevent people entering illegally? That's what people are arguing.
It's great you're pro-legal immigration. I'm all for it too like most people. I'm all for Muslims legally living here too. I think this is where you truly know if you're pro-legal immigration. If you welcome all races, all religions long as they come in here legally.
"He saved half my fire team," Cpl Brannon Dyers of Blairsville GA. Told the Army times, "It's stuff you hear about in boot camp, About WW II and Tarawa Marines who won the Medal of Honor" said Lance Cpl. Rob Rogers of Tallahassee Fla
Lance Cpl. T.J. Kaemmerer, combat correspondent who was attached to Alpha Company, witnessed Peralta who, in his last moments of consciousness, reached out and pulled a grenade into his body, protecting the lives of at least 8 fellow Kaneohe Marines. He wanted to join the Marines, after High school in San Diego in 1997, but since he was a Mexican citizen ,he had to wait until August,2000, until he got his Green card.
He was buried at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific (Punchbowl) In Oahu Hawaii.
The media did not tell his story, He is an American Hero.
Thank you for telling his story!!
Why do you anti's go do what he did fight for his country? all of the liberties you state you will fight for, Yet you disrespect an American Marine for giving his life for his country, a job you real Americans refuse to do. It safer sitting behind your computer isn't it ,Brucey
ok i see your point, but how about all the illegals serving your country? are they not heroes too? so you want illegals out but you do want to use them for your benefit?
receive but not give? why don't you tell all illegals to stop paying taxes? no huh?
how would you feel if you are giving 5 dollars of your check every month and then your whole neighborhood receives a gift but you don't? not fair huh? just for a simple green card?
be a little logical if it was easy to come into this country legally there wouldn't be so many illegals.
If people would put half as much effort into fixing Mexico + South America as they do grumbling about immigration, the problem would be solved.
I am in support of anyone coming to this country to work and provide for their family. I am in support of anyone willing to work and accept the values, obey the laws, and learn the English language.
Much more beneficial to our society than those who were born in the U.S. and do not appreciate the programs and the freedoms provided in this country - who milk the welfare system and accept free medical care and do not contribute to tax base or their local community.
Being a citizen means more than having a U.S. address. Being a citizen means making your neighborhood a safe place for children, contributing to the economy, paying taxes, supporting our military and taking advantage of your right to vote.
thank you for sharing this story with us.
