    that is fear mongering, the cheap labor from illegal immigrants will now be provided by Americans after their welfare is taken away.

    the moral compass of the poor looking to pursue happiness whether by an American or immigrant is the same.

    Well that needs to change, and is part of the problem. But you need the carrot that brought the illegal in. The employer. Take away the carrots and the rabbits will not come. This can be done simple enough, just legislate a mandatory prison sentence and large fine. If catching criminal employers slows down, give the public an 800 number to call to turn in an employer breaking the law, for a reward. Say 500 bucks if the employer is caught.

    Obviously since we will not do what would work the best, this is evidence congress does not really want to stop illegal immigration. They just put on a theater for their average american voter, trying to make them think they want to fix this problem, which never comes to pass. It took trump to get the ball rolling again. I would imagine lobby groups like the national chamber of commerce are throwing some money at congress, to keep some access for the illegals to keep coming here. For they want illegals for their members. Businessmen who want cheap labor. And don't mind breaking the law to get it. Your common criminal, but perhaps with shirt and tie.

    Not fear mongering at all. It is stating reality. I do agree though that once we can clean out the illegals, much of them, that this will open up jobs for americans, as soon as these employers increase their wages to what they should be for legal american citizens. Which would be rather fast. For if we cleaned out the construction workers here who are illegal and are beginning to come back slowly, after leaving post 08 crash, wages would have to go up for those companies using illegals today. My son in law a contractor, went out of business during the last housing boon, because of the number of illegal aliens hired by her competitors. On the cheap. He refused to break the law and had problems winning bids for new jobs. Of course when the other company's labor cost was 1/2 to 2/3rds of your labor costs, using americans, well, you just get underbid. So, this is how it affects americans in the real world that I live in.

    The world is filled with poor. We have to allow that problem to be dealt with by their own nation. We simply do not have a money tree and cannot take in the world's poor without destroying ourselves. We can help other nations, if we have the money, but being a dumping zone for the poor and uneducated will only turn us into what they left, poor and uneducated.

    ALL conservatives believe in LEGAL immigration.

    Should people who came here illegally be given a "Clinton pass"?
    Yes or No?

    Deport or "Clinton pass"?

    So I take it you believe that billions of third world 'immigrants' should be able to just run that 'stop sign' and enter this nation to suck off our welfare/social service system. How long do you thing it will take before Chicago looks like and functions like Mogadishu?

    Did you get so much conversation that you didn't see my reply to you?

    This investigation was started in 2013 by the Obama administration. Store owners were using stolen ID's to hire the illegals at under the minimum wage, using them as little better than slave labor. And you think ICE is the bad guy????

    Ahh, so you support the Second Amendment? Great! When your illegal draws on a a Federal agent and shoots him in the back, what should good American men with guns do? We could call it "deportation in a box".

    BTW, more people should buy a hat like this and walk around construction sites, Walmart and the Home Depot parking lot.

    Disagreed on your advice to murder Federal agents but also hypocritical after you posted multiple statement seeking to strip Americans of their rights to self-defense.

    Fair enough. So this shouldn't be a problem right?

    Also, links n stuff. What are the right places.

    Help us learn.

    No large corp, even on scale, could ever deviate, right?

    the rich are divided on which poor and educated they feel are worthy of mercy from civilisation.

    that division creates the destruction of the rule of law, not the poor and educated American nor illegal immigrant.

    if the rich were united beyond their pride and prejudice, there would be more than enough compassion to go around for all of the peasants. unfortunately history has shown they will only be united by their pride and prejudice.

    We are a nation of consistently evolving laws. This is where conservatism by nature loses. Traditionalism is the victim of the future. Older laws get replaced with new ones, or are revised. That’s just how America works.

    That’s why it’s important to have DACA and the Temporary Protection Status. I read an article tonight of a Salvadoran who is suffering from leukemia here in the states, and will lose his support if his mother is deported. This is how deportation is one of the most inhumame tactics we can use before getting to torture.

    That was what I didn’t like about Obama, yes you read that right. That he somehow became the Deporter-In-Chief. ICE is the bad guy, because they are there for one reason only. To deport people. I saw your reply, I simply was busy responding to others.

    I don’t have the guts to murder anyone. I can only try doing what a Good Samaritan would do and that’s to do what I can to keep these people from being treated as trash by these so-called “federal agents.” They are less superior than someone fresh out of the police academy. ICE is one of the more deplorable aspects of America.

    One is a roach, the other is the roaches bait. I’ll break it to you, ICE is the roach equally as vile as the actual insect. That makes for a swarm of roaches in this country.

    From what I can tell from a little bit of searching, Indian Americans are split between dems and reps. They did tend to give more money to the rep party overall than to dems.

    I've also found that most Mexican immigrants vote dem by a wider margin.

    I have no solid proof, but it does make me wonder how they chose to start with Indian immigrants when there are many more Mexican immigrants and they both might be considered minorities. One thing that stood out was immigrants from India seem more prone to disliking Muslims. I don't know if that is a major factor or not.

    What I read on Indian immigrants tended to be ten years old.

    I dont mind if ICE investigates 711 stores

    Corporations have more to lose by hiring illegals so they tend to avoid doing so

    But the unfranchized mom and pop stores owned by immigrants are where yiu will find most illegals working

    What the Fornication is a "Clinton pass"? And how does that relate to immigration. That sounds like some 5th grader made up a name.
