Dear Illegals, Your rights await you: in Mexico

by Walker, Texas Ranger Wednesday, Mar. 03, 2004 at 10:18 AM

if you're in America illegally, you have NO American rights, period. The only "right" you have is to be deported.

Corrupt shitheads like Vicente Fox love to see healthy, able-bodied Mexicans leaving for the States...each one of you that does not only breaks OUR laws, but that's one less angry citizen willing to overthrow HIS corrupt ass.

Your "free lunch" will be coming to an end soon. Better get back across the border and overthrow Fox.

The Wall is going up, like it or not.

Illegals

by sfres Saturday, Mar. 06, 2004 at 7:09 PM

Got that one right. It's not "undocumented". Repeat after me: ILLEGAL ALIENS. Suppose the tide were reversed and there were hundreds of thousands of Americans entering Mexico illegally and taking their jobs. What rights would you have (perhaps you could get a hint by looking at how Mexico handles illegals from Guatemala on the southern border). I love the drivers' license scam. Anyone from Mexico can drive here with a Mexican license while VISITING. Sorry, but PC World is over. Calling yourselves undocumented over and over does not change to truth, and we all know it. If you want to come here, then go home, seek out a US consulate, take a number and WAIT YOUR GODDAM TURN.

two the two misinformed idiots above

by more rational Saturday, Mar. 06, 2004 at 8:17 PM

1. Go read the immigration law. There is no "line" to wait in if you're a semi-skilled laborer. This is why there is "illegal" immigration -- there is no avenue for legal immigration unless you're skilled.

2. Millions of Americans don't go to Mexico, but billions of American dollars go to Mexico when companies move jobs and agricultural production there. Billions of dollars are used to remove trade barriers, to make them purchase subsidised ag from the US, and to purchase their industries. This economic integration, combined with the above immigration imbalance, creates pressure to cross, as unemployment in Mexico stays high.

Mainly, though, it's reason 1 - the legal system has no provision to legally allow people who are part of the North American regional economy to move to where the work is.

This situation hasn't really changed in fifty years. I think it's because people, especially conservatives, don't like competition unless they can play on an uneven playing field... and make the weaker team pay any park fees to use the field.

Why do people get mad when MEXICANS come to the u.s.a??? Should they come from mexico and steal everyones land , homes, and tear families apart like it was done to mexico so many times, does that sound fair?? yea exactly....Mexicans have been the people who have experience sooo much violence and unfairness in this world, but people still want to continue to be evil towards MEXICANS ...HUMMMM WHY??? see the two ignorant people that wrote those comments about us Mexicans , I think they need to really study the history of our people(not what the whiteman has wrote about us) before opening their mouths....THINK ABOUT IT.... WHO REALLY MIGRATED TO THIS LAND FIRST ???
