[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think we should more or less close our doors to new immigrants/permanent residents.  I liken it to a family that would love to have/adopt more children but need to care for the ones they have and just can't afford to have/adopt more, as much as they might like to. I also think we need to stop granting citizenship to children of non-citizens just b/c they are born here.[/quote]

I agree with you 100%. If you weren't born here, and you're over 18, you gotta go unless you're in an accredited college. If you get pregnant while IN college, you gotta go.  If you break the law, you gotta go. If you need to apply for welfare, you gotta go.

Also I think people moving here from other countries should have to assimilate a bit more than they do. There should be a mandatory Learn to Speak English class that gets them fairly proficient. After graduated, you have to teach that class (volunteer). If you are not enrolled within 3 months of arriving here you have to go. If you can't graduate after the second pass of taking it, you gotta go. You can test out of having to take the ESL class, but still have to volunteer. After fulfilling your ESL volunteer obligation, you have to volunteer for an American-created organization that is not based on helping immigrants from  your home country. GIVE BACK. If you have a child who commits a crime, you AND that child, gotta go. You are welcome back after that child reaches age 18, but any immigrant who breaks a law is never welcome back to live here permanently. If you are not either working or going to school or some combination of the two that equals full time for more than six months, you gotta go. (There should be waivers for this during recessions.)  Full time students can stay in the country between semesters but for any break over two weeks long they must be volunteering or working at least 20 hours a week (or a combo of the two that equals 20 hours a week).

Lastly, I think we should do away with calling human beings "illegals." A person, in and of themselves, can not be an illegal human being. It is not illegal to be alive. [b]We need a different term.[/b] [/quote]

Another term already exists:  undocumented worker.

I just want to say that not every immigrant came through Texas (though I don't have a problem with that either). Some of us came because we would have been killed, in a fucking war. Would you rather me stay out nonetheless? The lack of compassion and basic moral compass is so evident on this particular thread that I am utterly disgusted. [/quote]

I'm sorry you're from a war-torn country, but I must ask: Do you think the US owes you entry? [/quote]
