The problem is once you're illegal, its not that easy to just get legal.

Kill them w/ fire.

Im totally for immigration laws. ALL OF YOU GET THE FUCK OFF OUR NATIVE LAND!... xD Im kidding, the more people the merrier.

I'm all for immagration. I'm from eastern Europe though.

Look @ the fine mess we got ourselves into.

Let me look @ this from a realistic side of things.... Warning, I'm wasted on some great OG Kush

OK... the ones that have been here for a minimum of 1 generation...pay a fine, then they can be granted temp citizenship.
That means they have children born in the USA. Must show documentation of birth etc.. The way I see it these people already feeding off our State and Fed resources.
"Can't just cut them off"
The other illegals with out on going criminal records. Give them a Green card and have them apply for citizenship.
Anyone caught after this is deported immediately and will never be given access for citizenship.
Close the F-ing border. We have a lot of guys coming back from the wars. Have the military close the border. It's a job.
That way the Military wont have to let anyone go...even the disabled can stay in and work.


The truth is I don't have any good Ideas to fix the immigration problem.... it is tough one to solve.

I don't care. Hell, we just slaughtered a bunch of Indian's to become "legal citizens"

There's a difference between a moral code and laws, and I think there is nothing morally wrong with immigrating anywhere you want to. There's nothing morally wrong with smoking weed. Our government just really likes dictating every facet of our lives.

problems with immigration in the US:

students that come here to go to college are not granted legal residency after they graduate, forcing them to go back to their home country and use that education to invent products and services that make jobs THERE instead of here. *flush*

we don't grant a lot of visas to high-skilled people like scientists, and natural born citizens aren't filling enough demand for high skilled jobs. quality math and science graduates here are more than half foreign-born, and as already mentioned, we toss 'em out without getting any use out of them.

"immigrant" and "mexican" are not mutually exclusive terms, but we treat them like they are. any discussion of immigration turns into a discussion about mexicans and how to keep mexicans out.

it seems like everyone is either way too anti-immigrant or way too pro-immigrant. there is never an in between or a willingness to compromise from either side. there are policies all around this country that are so completely pro or anti-immigrant to the point of absurdity.

legal immigration is a mess. it's not cheap or easy to "get legal" and a lot of people get denied for what appear to be arbitrary reasons to many people.
