http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Feral
A feral organism is one that has changed from being domesticated to being wild or untamed. In the case of plants it is a movement from cultivated to uncultivated or controlled to volunteer.

As with any introduced species, the introduction of feral animals or plants to non-native regions may disrupt ecosystems and has, in some cases, contributed to extinction of indigenous species.

These are Feral Aliens.

Villaraigosa said recently here in the Los Angeles Times that there are 4.3 million immigrants in Los Angeles.

Doug McIntyre said recently in the Daily News that there are 750,000 illegal aliens in Los Angeles, or 19.6 percent of the population.

Our population increases by 5 people, one is an American of American parents, The other 4 are foreign born or their offspring.

73 percent of Asians and 75 percent of Latinos voted for Obama.

Back when Regan made the first amnesty proclamation I told everyone who would listen that that was a grave mistake because now, millions of Mexicans would flood into the U.S. knowing that some time in the future another amnesty would occur.

My predictions were right on the mark.

America, as we know it, is over. Political Correctness, sensitivity, diversity, civil rights, the welfare system and a whole host of other parasitic maladies upon freedom and Constitutional laws has made a lawful and organized society a thing of the past.

We have crossed the line and will not be coming back over it again.

I don’t support amnesty but I was wondering how many of those that received it before became citizens and are now allowed to vote?

Seems that amnesty and citizenship are two different animals. In order to become a citizen and vote you have to do stuff. Stuff I am sure the left will give them assistance to accomplish.

No pathway to citizenship for illegals, period. Legalization yes. Full rights including voting for the Welfare State, no.

That is the penalty for breaking the law.

The question intentionally misrepresents the position of most Republican’s.

Most are NOT for “amnesty”, and certainly NOT for “Citizenship”!

The author is among those who continue to insist sending them home is a viable option, and therefore, anything short of that is labeled “amnesty”.

What ever is done with people who came here illegally, it must NOT include the right to vote.

This is not only to punish those who violated US law, but to respond to politicians who looked upon these people as future supporters.

Assuming there are 30 million illegals in America, its enough to create some 50 new primarily democrat congressional districts. Just the basic administrative costs per district probably run into the 10s of millions of dollars. Then we can start adding the hundreds of billions of dollars in pork and earmarks those democrats will vote for and you begin to see the scope of the problem.

Illegals are nothing but government growth hormones.

I don’t even want to think about what all those new democrats will do to social issues.

If they become citizens, they will have the right to vote. Hell, a good many are voting now and aren't citizens.

The Republican Party is the division of the National Democrat Party that serves as the Designated Opposition. Of course, Republicans who are in on this arrangement want Amnesty. It will cement the Democrat Party as the Permanent ruling party int the USA and will hasten the conversion of the USA into a Social Democrat totalitarian socialist state. That subject is the dividing line between conservatives who might be actually opposed to the Social Democrat State and “conservatives” who are acting in the role assigned to them. These faux Republicans and conservatives think they will have a place in the coming Nomenklatura but part of their roles as Opposition includes being early defendants in the inevitable show trials.

If you look at my posts, you’ll see that I’m not some troll. My bonefides are here.

Seriously — how exactly are you gonna ship ‘em all home? Do you understand that you could put them on a never ending stream of buses to Mexico, and the stream would never stop?

Amnesty, no. But so far I haven’t heard conservative people offer any other solution besides “send them home”. And I’m waiting.

AT the very least, ICE should be reformed so someone from either Mexico or Canada is processed in weeks instead of months, and so that it can be done w/o huge legal expenses.

We only need these two (#1+#2) from above because the only argument FOR anmesty now is to get Hispanic votes:

1) How many net votes would the GOP lose if illegal immigrants become citizens?
2) Why don't Hispanic voters already support the Republican Party since Reagan backed an amnesty in 1986?

So path to citizenship should not be considered until the GOP amnesty club explains exactly how they will get those votes.
Amnesty now would result in O getting all the credit.
The House should offer to make Os Dreamer EO into law in return for enforcement measures.

Some illegals did not take up the offer and are still illegal. They thought it was a scam to deport them.

Stop birthright citizenship. No public benefits of any kind without proof of citizenship. Most would return home.

Like Kaslin, I agree completely. Also, to compare today with the political scene when Reagan was in charge back in the early 1980's just doesn't apply now. It used to be that immigrants who came to the US did so with the idea of being assimilated into our culture...to be a part of it. Today's immigrants want to take over a neighborhood microcosm and make it grow until they can create an area that replicates their old culture. Look at the efforts of Muslims in particular: they move in, densely populate an area, and then start pushing to establish their own laws (Sharia law) in that area.

I don't have an answer, but preventing illegals from voting sure takes the carrot away from a lot of politicians who see them as nothing more than "buyable voters". Free cells phones? Why the hell are my tax dollars paying for that if not to buy votes. I'm so PO'ed I could spit.

Last I heard, the illegals were all headed home due to our ‘rough’ economy.

Things got better and nobody told me?

Maybe you shouldn't be using the usual liberal strawman arguments.

Enforce the law and make life hard for them here and they'll leave.
