my point is lost on you, try not to be so shrill. I am not disagreeing with you, they broke the law. But the penalty you all are trying to impose does not fit the crime. a federal felony is an appropriate charge for someone that committs murder or rape, not for someone who enters our country illegally. At the most yes they deserve to be shipped back but we don't need to put them in jail, or in front of a firing squad, or build a wall, or belittle them for wanting a better life for themselves and their families.
oh and btw- the reason there will be no brick wall, or national guardsmen is because of money. MONEY. You are all living a pipe dream, but that doesn't stop you from coming across like bigots. Good job.
Is this lost on you? If we lock down the border and have legal immigration, how many criminals will we weed out and KEEP OUT.
Here are some statistics from the Los Angeles Times:
40 percent of all workers are working for cash and not paying taxes. Why would they want to be legal and pay taxes? They would be able to start bringing the rest of their families to the USA.
75 percent of people on L.A.'s most-wanted list are illegal aliens.
Over two-thirds of all births are to illegal alien Mexicans on Medi-Cal whose births were paid for by the taxpayers.
Nearly 25 percent of all inmates in California detention centers are here illegally.
Over 300,000 illegals are living in garages.
The FBI reports half of all gang members in Los Angeles are most likely illegals from south of the border.
Nearly 60 percent of all occupants of HUD properties are illegal.
Of the 10 million people in Los Angeles County, 5.1 million speak English and 3.9 million speak Spanish.
21 radio stations in Los Angeles are Spanish speaking.
More statistics:
Less than 2 percent of illegals are picking crops but 29 percent are on welfare.
Over 70 percent of the U.S. annual population growth (over 90 percent of California, Florida and New York) are from immigration.
29 percent of inmates in the federal prisons are illegal aliens.
The lifetime fiscal impact (taxes minus services used) for the average adult Mexican immigrant is a negative.
They also send between about $15 billion back to Mexico to assist their families and prop up the corrupt Mexican government that keeps most of its citizens in poverty. How about a revolt in their own country!
A new figure from yesterday: It cost Los Angeles $276 million in welfare costs for 100,000 children of illegal aliens.
