I understand the argument but when applied to reality it just doesnt work. We pay taxes to maintain a certain way of life. If you immigrate to a country and immediately become a citizen of that country, you acquire all the benefts of that citizenship immediately. People should be able to immigrate here if they want to but they should not be able to receive the benefits of citizenship. No voting, no entitlements.

agree 100% and poor ole joshie probably does not have a clue how many "enemies" we have immigrating here like in euro countries via stealth jihad among other things.

as I said earlier and I say again a country should have a right to defend themselves from the threats of immigration. But at the same time immigration should be encouraged. Also immigrants who come here illegal should be treated as humans not animals (still deported in most cases) but help them out don't treat them like trash.

So you are saying that everyone who comes in contact with them should catch their disease or be victimized by their criminal intentions.

no need to deport when they cannot find work and cannot suck our social services dry. They will self deport then. It has happened before. But the democrats want their votes and the republicans want the cheap labor!

That reminds me of Judges 21:25 "In those days there was no king in Israel: every man did that which was right in his own eyes."

Legal immigration is encouraged by this country.

illegal immigrants are treated like humans. They are treated like any human that gets caught breaking the law. However, I'm all for treating them humanly while we process their migration out of this country.

It is still limited by the laws of the land the emigre intends to choose as his new home.

Ultimately, the message is that it was not such a good idea.

Every single bit of this revolves around one thing really, and one thing only and we all know it. Voting Power, and that's it, plain and simple. The left wants to manipulate them to death, play their friend, and win them over for control. The right doesn't want the left to do that, and yet doesn't want to lose them to the dark side, so while they really know what's right and wrong, they are gripped with fear over what they clearly see the left is doing with them, and many are fearful of taking the right stand on it or full force in their good conscience. And here we are, stuck in the middle, paying for the power grab with our tax dollars, people who aren't even citizens of this country, here illegally (as in without our permission) and soaking the taxpayer for it.

I told him this same thing very early into his post. Some people on here, in a desperate attempt to appear intelligent and deep, do mental gymnastics with issues that should be very simple and straight forward. They hope their supposed thought provoking endless string of vague questions make other posters think they are intellectuals. It think most of the time it backfires.

I agree. But again, the problem isn't immigration, it's the welfare.
So I suppose you are willing to let homeless, citizens or non citizens set up a tent on your lawn? There is no border.

I read your post after I made my post. I agree with you. People like him love to muddy the water instead of bringing clarity to the subject.
