Puerto Rico (which I was talking about), Guam, the US Virgin Islands, and I think there are a few more.. I could be wrong.

[Peeping Tom]

Just some random islands off the Wast Coast as well.

What some of you forget is that sometimes, you HAVE to come illegally, as the state you were in won't let you leave.

and we call them refugee's

If it's acknowleged by the administration, yes.....

Be that as it may, but I strongly deplore the fact that mammon is considered more important than human beings.

Moving on,

Mister AegenemmnoN would prefer to deprive them of all rights, and Mister NiteStryker would like to deny them free healthcare - “They don’t deserve it”.

Having said that, I sincerely hope that neither of you will ever be forced to live like these illegal immigrants, loathed and detested by the more fortunate. It is a pitiful life on the very bottom of the social hierarchy… Imagine for a second to be in their place…

…or would that be... some illegal loving guy?

I would call it Mr. Uninformed naive guy.

Dear Mr. Giovanni, I find your post distasteful and your opinion simplistic.

While you support the illegal crossing of these immigrants let me ask you a question.

Do you have a job?
Go you have a nice house or place to call home?
Are you a student or are you in the working world?

I no longer have a job. I was laid off from work In November of 2002. I can no longer get unemployement. I cant get federal help of any kind.

I currently still have my house only because of the help from my parents and friends as I have struggled to get any income I can.

I have to worry week to week about where to get money for groceries, bills, and gas for car to go job hunting. My only outlet is my internet access since I dont have the money to go to movies, clubs, resturants, etc.

I work my ass off to make ends meet and now the goerment wants to treat teh illegal immigrants better than i can get and im a US citizen! why should I not curry at least equal favor?

And yet with the State I live in recently recording the highest unemployement, highest bankruptcies, and highest bank foreclosures on mortgages in the nation you think I am being selfish to say the illegals should not be allowed in?

If i dont watch after my own intersts who will? certainly not GW Bush, this ploy is only to gainfavor come election time.

Yet you suggest that it is due to our selfish desires to retain what we have and that we would prefer the god of riches personified over human beings.

You dont seem to comprehend that most of us on here are not suggesting that people suffer unduly, merely that they follow the systems and procedures like everyone else, not be rewarded for doing what they knew was wrong. They know they are supposed to get a green card.

In my city whether they are a illegal immigrant or not any one in need of emergency health care will not be denied. They will bill you of course and the care will probably not be the best but they wont push you out onto the street to die.

and Mr. Giovanni, if you were to read agge's post before criticizing you would see that he and the others are not saying no to LEGAL immirants who have bothered to follow the directions the system, only those who seek to profit from ill gotten means. The people who follow the system and work for a living should be rewarded, not those that cheat and circumvent the system. AegenemmnoN

And most immigrants are not loathed and detested, most work hard and abide by the laws.


Your intentions are well meant but are misplaced.

[AegenemmnoN]

wow, an amazing post Anlushac11!
bravo to you.

and, im sorry to hear of your fiscal situations. i know how it is, at one point, we barely had anything to eat and no heat when it was freezing outside

[L337-Fu]

I was going to post, but after what Anlushac said, theres simply nothing more that needs to be said. Maybe thatll get the message across.
