I infer from your reply that immigration does bother you. That's very observant of you.
But to make my position clear, if it wasn't already, it's the titanic, never ending waves of illegal aliens that "bother" me.
And what bothers me even more is watching the Republican party stand gawking, and many time aiding and abetting these millions of criminals.
A government that cannot or will not control it's borders and maintain it's sovereignty from millions people entering illegitimately, will itself eventually become illegitimate.
Bet the rent.

Ok stoooopid question of the minute from me......where is CHAT or BACKROOM etc etc......? How do I get there from here ? Doom on me ........:o)
Thanks !
As to this thread.........well problem is in large percentage of the loving ,caring, polite debates here at FR ....(IMO) .....it's criminal lawless invasion vs legal immigration . That's what gets feathers ruffled almost every time. I believe it is the inability to see the difference.
I'll try to better control my FRage in the future on such issues...........Stay Safe !

I have been in Nashville for 9 years, coming here from California, I see the same things happening here to once peaceful neighborhoods that I saw while I lived in California; illegals come here and set up little communities within established areas and soon the long-time residents move out, the storefronts change, the crime rate increases and the property values plummet.
Other than that, I have little experience in living along the border proper.

I haven't seen any problems on terror threads, but I don't read every post on them, either.

Are you claiming that undocumented immigrants are all despicable thieves or deadbeats? Not every person who sneaks into the country is a despicable thief or a deadbeat, but every person who sneaks into this country is in fact breaking the law, ergo a criminal. It's a testament to what a great country we are that we deal with this issue as humanely as we do. In most countries, being caught in the country illegally will get you branded a spy and thrown in prison or shot.

Until I moved to Oklahoma with the closing of Kelly AFB, San Antonio, I thought it was a border problem as well. We have the problem here in Oklahoma and our INS is so poorly staffed that a Sheriff near Tulsa offered to rent a bus to drive illegals to the border to deport them.
Not sure there is a State that is not touched by this illegal alien program.

I believe your message with respect to communicating in a civilized fashion on this forum for the illegal immigration policy proposed by the present administration is a good one. It is good to be able to discuss how GWB is not upholding the law and the US Constitution by not defending our borders and the proposal to legalize criminals.

Are you claiming that undocumented immigrants are all despicable thieves or deadbeats? That would be an example of bigotry Worse than that, I believe, a huge number of them are Mexican first. They are extremely racist. They have no desire to assimilate into our culture, learn our language and adopt our values. They are turning our country into a spin off of their defunct country.
I don't have a problem with anyone coming here, if they want to work hard and accept the hardships that come with the territory of being an immigrant. That means learning the language. If I immigrated to Russia tomorrow I would expect to have to learn Russian and live as a Russian.
In fact I have lived in foreign countries, I never expected them to speak English to me. I learned the language and went through the painful processes of doing things in a foreign language I could barely understand. And I had no intention of actually becoming a citizen and staying in the country. I didn't litter the streets and associate myself only with American groups or other American's. I respected their laws and culture.
We are fragmenting our society into different groups with different protections and language. A huge, probably close to half, by the time this is said and done, demographic our our society is going to see itself as Mexican first and speak another language. They are completely ignorant of our form of government, have no desire to learn and are easily manipulated due to thier position in our society.
I picked up a free publication at our local library Friday called Barriozona. It was an entire publication devoted to hispanic empowerment, activism and basically socialism. One article was based on the "hero" Che Gueverra. And it was only one of three such free publications available in the library that day.
How can anyone think this is possibly going to end well?

This sounds good to me, I'm tired of being referred to as a bigot, racist, or xenophobe just because I want the illegals to be forced to comply with the law.

The smart illegals that actually want to stay (as opposed to the border hoppers doing day labor) head to the interior of the country where there is no border patrol and the INS is merely a technicality. That's why the Sanctuary guys took their "refuges" to Illinois, who's gonna look for illegal Guatamalans there.

I agree with you -- it is part of the program to disperse them around all over the Country. I can remember driving down I-10 from Boerne to San Antonio and seeing a pickup truck stop on the side of the road and see these people fleeing up the hills and you could bet that Border Patrol was in the area. If they caught them, they would send them back across the border and several days later, they would be back in San Antonio.
The funniest story I heard was when several illegals got off the train outside the fence at Kelly AFB, went over the fence, and stopped a car to get a ride. It was the Base Commander's car -- didn't take long for those illegals to get a one-way ticket back to Mexico. Even the usual people who condoned the illegals were silent on that one! Normally it took awhile to get people deported -- not this time -- it was immediate.
