That's right, get out of the goddamned country and stop thinking you deserve anything but a oneway ticket back to mexico.

After discussing this with more people, I am starting to see how clouded my viewpoint was due to yesterdays events and my own limited experiences in the past.

I still think that kicking them out or giving them amnesty are bad decisions, and am researching worker visas and such out of curioscity.

WTF is up with Hillary Clinton saying at todays rally. "YOU ARE THE FACES OF AMERICA"?????? Where does she stand, does she even know? last week she was all for immigration reform and today she spouts this sh*t?? what is she hoping for to give amesity and citizenship to millions of illegal aliens to vote for her as our first female president??

These hardcore politicians need a good bitch slap to make them remember who fricken elected them into office and who they represent while in that office. It seems that all and i do mean all but Tankredo (sp) knows the real issue at hand and are not so pussified into just searching for the most PC approach or sniffing around for the next vote.

You know, I worked with an illegal for several years and from what he told me not all of Mexico is horrible to live in, it actually sounds pretty darned nice. I asked him why he wanted to leave and basically he told me just for some money. His plan is to stay here and work for 10 or so years and then return home. Also, my best bud's friend is an engineer for Caterpillar and they transfered him down to Mexico several years ago and he loves it down there.

I've got nothing against Mexican folks moving here but they've got to start doing it through the proper channels. There's alternatives to those who are in bad situations down in Mexico. If they can come up with $2500-$5000 to pay a coyote to bring them in illegally, then they have the resources to make their home better.

This is what a comprehensive guest worker program would be great for. He would pay taxes in exchange for being allowed to work here but because he is not a citizen, that money would go to the Us government or state governments etc.
No offense Goose, but I agree with the guest worker program... and then after that the person should be deported after a certain amount of time (1 year possibly). Then they can apply and wait in line like everyone else, we have rules in this country for a purpose. While I am sympathetic to your fam, it is only because I know that our US borders are severely lacking. Had we protected the border adequately, illegal immigrants wouldn't have made it here in the first place. Illegal imm's are a humongous drain on our society, just look at how much one hospital lost from treating illegals: 14 million. Please try telling me that doesn't contribute to the 30-40% healthcare increase in premiums this year, and I will say you are wrong.

The only Mexican that needs to be deported to Mexico is Carlos Menicia, that guy a fvcking ass.

Who's Carlos Menicia?

i wish more people would say that.... he's not really that funny. race jokes reach a limit of cleverness.

Carlos Menicia is some sort of funny guy?

I know there is a Carlos Mencia who is a comedian....but know of nobody named Carlos Menicia.

Someone said he's mexican. I take offense to that, first page read it.

He's Hindu and I'm sikh, he's a brethren as far as I'm concerned. And even though there are theories, I will protect the integrity of the people who have parents that were raised in a country much harsher than mexico.

EDIT: You know what, I just spent a good amount of time writing one long ass rant. But I think my breath probably would be wasted here, so I'll save it.

Many of the people who have posted comments are ill informed, and for the time being there is nothing that can be done about that, so I've withdrawn my comment.

One last thing though, I think calling that guy an idiot was uncalled for OdiN. You can't deny your history, which is completely relevant in this debate.
