I heard a report on CNN the other day that the Border Patrol was doing a routine sweep the other night when alien traffickers attacked them with grenades and full auto weapons. That's rediculous. If that is how the traffickers are going to play, then military is the right way to go.

Red tape sucks. And yes if you come here on a work visa and try to gain residency, it will cost quite a bit of money and time.

I'm also willing to bet if I decided to move to Ireland and become a legal citizen of Ireland it would take some time and also some money. Perhaps not as much time/money as coming here but i'm sure every country has their process.

Oh and GAM: A small side note. Perhaps it takes so long for residency and it costs an exorbitant (sp?) amount in fees and taxes to come here because there are so many illegals that cross the border and cost the US money.

If we managed to eliminate all the illegal aliens in this country, I'm willing to bet that you will see a decrease in the amount of time it takes to become a citizen and perhaps less money.

Unlike the U.S, if a child is born in the U.S. who's parents are not legal citizens, that child is not a citizen. We're less strict than ireland when it comes to legally entering this country. Yet Ireland isn't under extreme heat for their rules.I think if you read the article I posted from, Ireland has needlessly tight immigration restrictions for an island nation, it's not like there's a gigantic border to defend or anything.

Perhaps there's so much red tape because the government feels with all the illegals coming in, quickly bringing in LEGAL immigrants would cause even more strain. Perhaps work visas are a PITA due to the same reason. I'm not saying that it's correct or true or whatever. I'm just saying that MAYBE if we can control the illegals we can have room to shorten/speed up, the process of gaining a work visa/ citizenship. Which is a MAYBE that i'd be willing to test out.

Quote:No, no-one is entitled to thievery or what not, and I never said that. I guess I'm trying to impress upon is that while it is illegal, I don't hold it against them that they are born poor and have to go somewhere else to try and make money to make a better life.

This is not apples and oranges. The situation above and the situation that is being debated are both situations that deal with both MORALS, and the LAW. Illegals aren't obeying EITHER.

GAM: I'm sorry that you've had such a difficult time trying to legally be in america and work. I feel bad that you get the crap taxed outta you for trying to do the US a favor. But how can you be on the side of illegal aliens? These are people who spit on everything you did and just jump right over you like you havn't payed any dues.

So, in other words, burden the people that are trying to do it legally? Are catching a hint of the futility?
So the point of your last sentence was to get legal U.S. citizens to be burdened at the expense of the immigrants, legal and illegal? Isn't it the fault of the illegals that decides the burdens of the future legals or possible future legal applicants?

If the application system for citizenship is so hard, then why have then been many succesful applicants? My point is that the illegals are taking the easy, and illegal way out. For the amount of money that many spend on body traffickers, it could be turned towards becoming a legal American citizen. For everyone that says that the citizens of Mexico have it so bad that they should be allowed in our country illegally, while not paying the dues that us Americans have to pay, well that is retarded.

GAM, I understood the tax increase that you were talking about when you had your temp residency title. But sometimes people need to pay a little more to be able to join something better than where they live in. (Lol no offense to Canada by the way. My ex-gf lives there.) But I'm just sick and tired of everyone acting like it is our duty to take in and take care of so many people from other countries while we have problems already with citizens from the U.S.

Do it legally or don't come over. Period.
