Man you're stirring up a hornets nest now, whatever you do don't spread this around. The current administration, by default and otherwise (food stamps, et.al.), has accepted them as citizens by means of refuge. This is why you constantly hear the leftwing socialist/communist call them undocumented immigrants or voters...uhh I didn't mean to put voters in there!

I like parts of your statement.

A lot of people here don't understand that if you're not from money or a white Mexican then you are just aren't going to get citizenship here due to the Mexican governments rampant corruption.

I'm sure those here or wanting to come here would be more than happy to complete a program regardless of difficulty level to gain citizenship if it gets to skip the Mexican governments part in it.

We pay for their healthcare, their schooling, and their homes. Who do you think will be paying for their "fine"?

Interesting. What are some of your ideas for dealing with these criminal aliens?

So you want state sanctioned execution for what is considered a misdemeanor crime?

I mean it's one thing to stop them (the wall) and deport them, but to advocate for the government to sanction execution for non-violent behavior is just a ridiculous stance.

Considering the moral implications of this, including the unreasonable overreaction to the situation, the lack of justification for the severe response, and the outrage that will ensue, I'm not sure you used effective critical thinking here.

Lol why do you think you're paying for their homes or food? You realize they can't apply for welfare or food stamps right

I'm all for it. I would love to go down there and hunt and fish and dig up some of their lost treasure.

What course of action do you suggest? Whatever course that may be..or any course for that matter, nothing can be implemented without first identifying the applicable targets. How do you think this first step be done?

Applying the laws that are already on the books is a good start.

I don't remember the group that had a slow, hard and fairly reasonable path to citizenship plan but it was laid out quite well.
I'm not for an increase in any department's budget in until the current fat can be trimmed, but I can't disagree with the rest. Most importantly though, we need to address our entitlement system, including the supports undocumented immigrants.

That being said, unlike the OP, this is a critical and reasonable analysis of the situation and possible solutions.

Outrage? We can put up warning signs. Think of it like this. Beware of Dog sign. You get bit by the dog, who fault is it?

Three options:
a) humane deportation
b) amnesty
c) look the other way

Whichever one costs us the least, do that.

I am an American Nationalist. I'm for the American people of all races, colors and religions.

I am not for others. Call me a fascist if you want but America was built by force and I'm willing to do the hard things to keep it that way.

These are people coming into our country illegally.

They are subverting the rule of law to illegally occupy our territory.

They refuse to integrate into society, declare themselves and apply for citizenship.

These are enemy combatants. If a foreign power assaults the sovreignty of the United States of America by invading its lands, do we not have a right to defend ourselves against such threats?

I say apply Geneva Convention rules to all illegals coming over the border. Surrender or be shot as foreign invaders.


That doesn't qualify as "critical thinking".
