  • In my opinion, the reason they did not want to become citizens could be due to the fact that it would bring dishonor for them to renounce their country of origin if they are only working to go back.

  • As far as the relevance to my questions, I was simply trying to argue the point that every immigrant has a different story and a different life.

  • I like your way of thinking. I only wish the process for entering here legally was not so complicated and it did not take so many years. I think in some situations, at least for some immigrants, their decision to enter illegally is a matter of life or death.

  • How do you feel about those high professionals who commit white collar crime and receive such little time in jail or fines? Yet, even those citizens such as poor African Americans receive double time for possession of drugs or stealing from a store.

  • Simply putting the blame on immigrants for taking jobs does not equal justice. What about the businesses who choose to hire immigrants over legal citizens? It's a matter of exploitation for cheap labor and those businesses are just as guilty as the immigrants if that is what you are trying to say.

  • I don't understand how my comparison is not legitimate. Speeding endangers people's lives and I consider that more dangerous than someone coming here to make a living. How well off were your parent's before coming to this country, what education did they receive, and what ethnicity are they?

  • form ethnic ghettos? Wow, I did not know people just decided to form a ghetto because they wanted to. These people are products of our CORRUPT society and where they choose to live is probably due to the fact that they cannot afford to live anywhere else, at least anywhere affordable.

  • I have a hard time believing that every immigrant in this country has ALWAYS learned to speak English. We insist that they all learn English but how do you expect them to learn the language when they are discriminated everywhere they go.
