Numbers????
What part of “illegal” do you not understand?
No,these are humans.
Unskilled.
Not wanting to assimilate.
Using our services, having not paid a dime of support.
Our schools have to provide Spanish speaking teachers, pulling resources from our taxpayer supported children.
Each costing us, the taxpayers, $70,000 in their lifetime.
Do the math.
What is our debt?
Let me ask you this. Are you willing to adopt at minimum one illegal child, and welcome them directly into your home?
You should. You are a giving soul.
Just don’t assume I have the resources to give. I choose where to give my time, talents and resources. You don’t.

Also, ILLEGAL immigrants receiving Medicaid costs taxpayers $18.5 billion annually. And that figure increases every day. Stop this nonsense, by all means.

If you watched the video, you saw that he stressed compromise with the Democrats several times, and even mentioned DACA at one point. We need to stop the situation we have now, which is nothing less than swarm warfare, but amnesty of any kind is one of those things that make the situation worse, because it incentivizes people to come here illegally.

Not as a citizen. Our job is to get Congress to pass the proper laws that protect the citizens. It is the duty of the POTUS to enforce The Constitution and protect the USA. We are being invaded by foreign people. Invaded. Agree or disagree?

You are skirting the issue. I have said already that I agree about the border crisis and doing something about it. You say it's okay to gun them down. Now quit trying to wrangle me into one of the traps you have imagined in your tiny little head and answer MY question ... what makes it okay to gun down someone crossing the border? This is NOT an invading army. They are people. Most are looking for a better life because they come from a hellhole. Some are escaping cartel and crooked government. Yes, some are coming here to do run drugs and do harm to others ... no doubt. But you are suggesting shooting ANYONE crossing the border, if I'm not mistaken. Justify that.

For the record ... my opinion: We need to stop all immigration until our immigration process is finally fixed and/or enforced. I see neither happening. It’s crap. I lean toward enforcement. No one comes in without intent to do so properly and must pledge allegiance to our country and to our laws. Period. If they don’t, revoke whatever document they entered under and ship them back. That’s where I stand on this.

Easy, not what I said.
We agree on the basics. Our problem is government.
