Glad I missed this one, seems redundant and nasty.

If America is destroyed, I have enough cases of ammo to get whatever I need.

Think and give them all you have from the beginning, and never weaken!

Depends on who you ask Clark. Why do you think thousands are turned down weekly? We gotta have some standards that most of the world isn't up to. But I see your point, it isn't the best system, but it's better than nothing

I do NOT want the borders LOCKED ... just better CONTROLLED.  People that want to be a part of this country are more than welcome, but let them do it LEGALLY.

When I say lock down the borders, I mean stop the hemmoraging of illegal aliens into the country, NOT stop the immigration process.

What we have is a bureaucratic morass and a painfully slow process.  That is completely different from having high standards.

EDIT - boy I type slowly.



Yup, I tend to agree ... not only is the current process slow, tedious and difficult, it also is poorly designed and carried out.  The entire thing needs to be reworked.

Perfect, because all we need in this world is more violence.


Violence isn't bad all the time. It gets your point accross when the other side refuses to have intellectual talks.

yeah it does.

Listen, I am not debating this with you anymore, Dune.  You are ignoring the points being made and picking pieces to attack.

I have said that YES, the immigration process is flawed and needs fixed, but you refuse to acknowledge it.

You are looking at this with emotion and not logic, and therefore do not seem amenable to having a prpber debate about this subject.

Why don't you take a break, calm down, re-read the posts that have been presented, and try again.

You are beating the same points into the ground and not addressing the counterpoints, so what is the point of continuing this?

Your mind is made up, and reason is lost at this point.

Locking the boarders is arrogant and stupid. It's a way for people to say that we are stopping a problem that doesn't truly exist. You guys like to point fingers at outsiders, when it's the laziness, and greediness of our own citizens that causes many of these problems. I say we should allow anyone in that passess screening, make them citizens, and for anyone illegal, it should be mandatory to pay them the same wages as employers would pay legals.

No Dune, we DO need to lock the borders

BUT if we make it easier to become a citizen, we will be like evryother country, letting int he worlds trash. I'm happy we have high standards for citezendy.

You cannot lock the boardes without making the process of becoming legal cheap and easy, with all screening processes available as well. So just locking them is ridiculous.

You are obviously NOT READING MY POSTS ... I work with people on a NEAR DAILY BASIS WHO ARE IMMIGRANTS!

African, European, Russian ... THEY hate the illegal situation as much as I do.

It's an insult to what THEY have sacrificed when illegals creep in like roaches in a dark kitchen.

You are getting emotional, and it's affecting your reasoning skills.

That is dogmatic nonsense. I have NOTHING BUT RESPECT for someone who comes here the RIGHT WAY and tries to make a better life.

Ask yourself ... if YOU were a terrorist, how would YOU get in? Would you take a chance at getting tagged in the immigration process, or would you blend in with the illegals coming across out blatantly wide-open border, and come on in.

It's the path of least resistance, and you should know it too if you look at the FACTS.

Emotion had NOTHING to do with this.

We are VULNERABLE, and unless we gather the testicular fortitude to do what is required to solve the problem, our economy will continue to suffer and we are throwing the door wide open for another 9/11/

I say kill two birds with one stone and lock those borders down NOW!

^^^ And trust HWay when he talk about jobs. He had trouble last year ATleast he has one now...

I'm fine with immigrants, as long as they go trhough the proper channels.

You don't go right to the supreme court over a lawsuit for $200....

If they try and sneak in, they don't deserve to be here, we have regulations for a reason, and thats to keep people that aren't good enough to be he out. That may sound harsh, but it's needed.

As for the REAL Mexicans ... who do you think picks up the tab when a pregnant illegal staggers across the border and drops a kid, who then is a citizen, so Mommy gets to stay. Yup, WE the TAXPAYING public do.

The come here, work illegally, take the American dollars they ear BACK to Mexico, and this is done with the encouragement of the MEXICAN GOVERNMENT.

They as non-taxpaying workers are destablizing the economy, and then we pick up the bill for welfare, food stamps and other entitlements?

Sorry, afraid not ... become a LEGAL citizen, or benefit 1 should NEVER be paid. If you are not on a green card or a work Visa, no citizenship for the babies.

Otherwise, why should they take the proprer steps to come here? They get all the benfits with none of the responsibilities.

That plain old SUCKS IMHO.
