Illegal immigrants should not at all be allowed into America. I do not mind if someone gets into America the proper way, with a green card or any other verifications. I dont believe the control support to stop them from entering the US is good enough. Its one of the main issues talk about on TV but I do not believe its on of the main concerns of the government. I truely believe that immigration is somehow helping the government or they could have stopped this years ago when its started. The only thing i ask of the legal immigrants is that they learn to speak english and they must speak english in public places.
No, I don't think that illegal immigrants should be allowed in America. If you want to come to America fine, but do it the right way. Sure it will take some time, and it does cost some money to become legal, but if you want to be here that badly then it is worth it. I think the government should do more to stop illegal immigrants from getting in.
Illegal Immigrants should go back to where they came from. If they want here so badly, they should get permission and pay the price. Yes we are a good country, we would let them in if they just ask.
I mean we are paying for a lot of them to be here. I knew an illegal immigrant, he dated my sister and asked to marry her so he could become legal. I thought it was wrong and glad my sister found out before she married the guy. I sat down with him and told him that he needs to go get that fixed. He did, and now he is going to school and doing good.

I believe that it shouldn't be a legal matter. People from any country should be able to move into the U.S. without having to go through a big process. I believe that illegal immigrants are doing a lot of the work that most U.S. citizens don't want to do. TO some degree, life would not be the same in the U.S. if they were not allowed in the country. Some people may not be able to afford the price to become a citizen because of their situation in their country. That is why they want to come over here most of the time anyway, to make enough money to go back to their country and provide better for their family. If it is for the safety or well being of another human being, why shouldn't they be given the opportunity to have a "better" life? It may get on some peoples nerves that there are so many illegal immigrants. And not everyone learns how to speak english. But how much does that really affect our lives. Last I checked, we are still able to communicate with them. Is it so bad for some of us to have to learn another language? Either way someone has to learn a new language. It shouldn't be that big of a deal if you have to learn basic words and phrases to communicate with others. Of course, that's just my opinion.

I would like to see all the illegal immigrants sent back to their own countries and then if they want to come here go though the right steps to get here. I would also like them to remember they are coming to America and be respectful of our customs and language. It is crazy that everywhere we buy now has two and three languages on them. Or if you call a customer service at many companies now the first question asked is if you would like this in English. If they want to live here they should have to at least learn our language.
I am going to agree with everyone else who has already posted, illegal immigrants should not be allowed here. They have snuck into the country, and broke the law doing so. We should not have to fund their education, support their rights, or even acknowledge them. Like the others here, I support immigrants that have came here the legal way, and I hope the illegal immigrants will soon be punished for their actions. I would not support amnesty for those immigrants already here, and would like to see them all deported.

i dont think illegal immigrants should be allowed into america. if they want to be here they should do everything the legal way just like everybody else. yes they do contribute to a lot of the work in america but they should be here legally. i dont mind if people want to come to our country and do work and have a good life, they just need to make sure they do everything they need to to be legal. yes the process might take time and money but it is the right thing to do if you want to truly become an american. if imigrants do want to come here legally they need to know basic english so they can communicate enough with people, but also people in america need to be willing to learn basic words of their language too. i think anybody can come to america as long as they do it the correct and legal way.

Illegal immagrants should not be allowed into America. I dont even care if someone does it the proper way, none of them should be let into America. A very few percentage actually find a job and work hard to make a living for their family. But the majority of them sit back a collect welfare, which is where alot of tax money is going. Unless we want to keep giving our's and our family's hard earned money to these immigrants, then let them in. Yet there is a select few that work hard, and those are the kinds I wouldnt mind. Also it just over crowds schools and puts more people out on the streets perform crimes. All in all, im sticking to not only illegal immigration is wrong, but I would like to see no immigration legally or illegally.

I think illegal immigrants are helping to give this country just the wake-up call it needs. We have it far, far better over here than other people have it in their countries, and it's about time we started to appreciate the opportunities we have here. I like that Mexicans are coming up here and making themselves at home. This is how America started, and to send these people packing would be against the original principles on which the country was founded. No, WE have to adjust to accept them, just as those here before us had to adjust our presence on what they viewed as their land. Wrong! Land is land, and no one owns it, and the nicer pieces of land are going to attract more people, especially as other lands become overpopulated and hard to live in. We better adjust or else we're in for a bunch of frustration because hungry homeless people are going to do what they have to do survive. And there's more of them than there are of us!

I think illegal immigrants are helping to give this country just the wake-up call it needs. We have it far, far better over here than other people have it in their countries, and it's about time we started to appreciate the opportunities we have here. And share them. We were lucky enough to have been born here; they had worse luck to be born elsewhere. The right to quality living should not come down to luck. All humans are equal, and if we're going to lay claim to the best plot of land, we're going to have to expect that others will want to join us. Despite what some people think, land cannot and shouldn't be segmented into territories over which people claim dominion. The idea that people have rights to land is an illusion. And the richer you are, the more people who are going to want to come on "your" land and into "your" house and take over what you have. We've been living in ingrateful luxury for so long here in this country that we've acquired a sense of entitlement. I'm not just talking about the rick people but nearly ALL people in the U.S. With our GNP and our social programs, almost all Americans are much richer than our southern neighbors, and it's time to even things out. I like that Mexicans are coming up here and making themselves at home.

Illegals should be illegal and not allowed into the country without proper steps to receiving citizenship. They come in and take our jobs working for a lot less and get paid cash under the table. This, for one is not good because the more they come in the less jobs are available for Americans who need them and are trying to make and honest wage and support their families. We have laws in this country, doesnt matter your race, color, gender, everyone needs to follow them and quit trying to change this great nation of ours. I think all illegals should be booted out on their asses and if they want to come back they can start over the right way. Of course they want a better life but that isnt our problem we cant be letting in just anyone because they are trying to make a living. THis is America, speak English. If you come over here, then live by our rules;any other country in the world would say the same thing only they really actually enforce it.
You know what really gets me is when I am making a phone call and the automated voice says for english press one. This is America people I should not have to be doing this in my own damn country. I really hate that the government doesnt seem to take this seriously either. I wish they would stop screwing around and actually do something but thats the government for you!

I believe that all Illegal immigrants in this country should be sent back! If they want in America so bad, then they can get a green card, and apply to live here. They are coming over here free of charge, not having to pay taxes or anything. Then they get pregnant and have their children here and then our country pays for that illegal childs every need, including medical. Our citizens here are woking hard so our children can have proper health care, and then our taxes are just going to help illegal immigrants here. THATS NOT RIGHT! I think that we need to really step up our border control and keep these people out! I also belive that if we find illegal immigrants here then they should be punished!

I believe that Illegal Immigrants should not be allowed in the USA. If a immigrant wants to do it the legal way I am not opposed to that. But they should not be allowed to do it illegally. I believe America should do more to stop it but always going to happen no matter what we do. Also I was watching a show the other day where Border Patrol Officers were getting killed every night because of immigrants trying to get into America. That is unacceptable ... if you really want into this country, do it the legal way and stop killing our officers.

No, I don't think they should be allowed in America. The only way they should be allowed is if they get in my going through the right channels. We have a huge problem with illegal immigrants taking jobs away from legal citizens. But, I think the main thing stopping the government from stopping the flow is the major cost of the programs and all the red tape involved. If all these people were here legally, think of the tax money the government would have, it would be a big help to alot of programs. The cost of giving these people public aid and healthcare is keeping other legal citizen from getting some of the care they also need.
They are ways to get into the U.S. without coming in ilegally. In this time where there are threats to the states anyone who comes in without going though the proper channels should be kicked out. If we say that it is illegal and nothing is done then what would be the next thing to start? A set of laws were made and passed for a reason. If we don't put our foot down, we will have more trouble than a few people who just want to work.

.....HILLARY FEARS..I DO BELIEVE THAT ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS SHOULD BE ALLOWED INTO AMERICA. IMMIGRANTS DESERVE AND EQUAL OPPOURTUNITY. JOBS ARE SCARE IN OTHER COUNTRIES AND SOMEWHAT IN AMERICA. IF IMMIGRANTS COME TO AMERICA THEY WILL MOST LIKELY HAVE A BETTER LIFE HERE THAN IN ANOTHER COUNTRY. MANY IMMIGRANTS WILL WORK HARDER THAN MOST AMERICANS TO GET AHEAD AND THAT IS SOMETHING THAT I ADMIRE........SO YES I THINK IMMIGRANTS SHOULD BE ALLOWED IN AMERICA...
