Everytime I read a newspaper paper article or watch a TV program on the subject, the pro-illegal immigration side never wants to acknowledge the fact that these people are breaking the law. What it all suggests to me is that they only want one thing - a completely open border with no restrictions on anyone who crosses in any way, shape, or form.

Never before have I seen such blatant disregard of the laws of this nation by its own citizens who sit here and defend criminals.

But hey, that's the left for you.

Hey, that's the right for you. Anything a rightard doesn't like must be a big conspiracy on the part of all liberals.

I do agree with you on the topic, though.

I live in Quebec, where a college (CÉGEP) education is basically free (my tuition fees were $150 per semester). Free to citizens, anyway. If you're from another country, or even - I think - from another province, you have to pay more.

Well suffice it to say that there are a lot of immigrant assholes around here who aren't happy enough paying a mere $800 or so per semester. They want it even cheaper like the rest of us whose families BUILT this @#$%ing country. They have absolutely no gratitude for living somewhere where they can get an education, let alone getting it so flipping cheap.

So when you talk about these walking shitstains with no regard for the law, that you Americans are having trouble with... well it's a no-brainer.

Double Post:
By the way, I think it's funny how minutemen have been monitoring the B.C.-U.S.A. border recently. What, did they expect to catch a few Chinese or something? Do some of you guys honestly think that any Canadian would need or want to cross into the U.S.A. illegally? That's a fine joke if I've ever heard one!

How ya doing, buddy?

Yes. Those 12 million people are criminals. They and their criminal employers are leeches of the U.S. economy.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Very good point. But at least they could be apprehended, ID'ed, deported, and if/when they return, they'd be criminals.

Now let's just hope that jailed illegal immigrants don't up and decide that the jails are too nice to them and try to stay there.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

What does that mean?
The Smart ones huh. Which ones are the dumb ones?

The ones that aren't in school.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

GDP is irrelevant to that point.

The current population of the USA is about three hundred million. So, by the math, you could say that illegal immigrants are costing Americans about $230 per year per taxpayer.

I was speaking idiomatically.
