[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I feel bad for them.  It usually means life is so awful that they are willing to risk their own lives and sometimes the lives of their family to try to better their situation.  And then they are demonized here by people who get to buy houses and fruit for less money due to their cheap labor (work that no American would want to do).  [/quote]

My DH is in law enforcement and so many are here purely to make money from drugs. They bring it here, find saps to sell it and kill people with heroin.[/quote]
May I respectfully suggest that your husband, being in law enforcement, is being exposed to a skewed sample?[/quote]

Can you show me a not skewed samples? I am not in law enforcement, but I do come across a lot of illegal immigrants in my job. A lot of them are criminals, mostly petit crimes, drugs, domestic violence. Saw hundreds of them who were previosly deported once or twice, are back, under different identity. [b]For those who says that they are not eligible for any benefits it would be an eye opener to find out how many of them do receive benefits by virtue of fraud. It is sad to see how stupid Americans are who letting this people to rip them off. But again, Americans never been the smartest nation, so I guess they are getting what they deserve.[/quote][/b]

Let's consider something here, assume that there are in fact 11 million illegal immigrants in the U.S. and only 1 in 10 are involved in an act of crime, well, we would be hearing volumes about it and we aren't. Based on what you and the pp are saying that would appear to be more than 10%.

You and the pp who's dh is in law enforcement are throwing out facts, some are criminals, as if they are the rule as opposed to the exception. A lot? How many is that? What is your profession?

Well, it's evident you both have little grasp, much less first hand experience, and are attempting to use your small sample as if it represents this as a whole. I on the other hand have been around this for decades.

Oh, and what I put in bold, says a hell of a lot about you![/quote]

Not the PP, but an immigrant, so I have an outside perspective, so to speak. Sadly, I have to agree, whatever it may say about me. The survival of the fittest is not in America's future.[/quote]
