I can’t believe that  ID isn’t required to vote nor can I accept why E-Verify isn’t mandatory.

I know the thread is focusing on illegal immigration but I have to say I have the same opinion as others here who oppose "diversity" immigration. If I had my way I would eliminate the diversity lotter

Call a spade a spade, my friend.  They are not undocumented.  They are either legal or illegal.  Your spouse (I assume here, sorry) is legal.  Why would you downplay what you guys have gone or are going thru, to soft-label what an illegal immigrant is?

 

 

Sorry you are so easily triggered by the use of a thesaurus. You stick to your labels,  I'll use mine.

Aren't you simply applying a different label for political purposes?

Since I moved over I have spoken to so many people locally and they haven't got a clue about the immigration system, all they see is what's on the tv poor families south of the border.

 

I explain to them the amount of US citizens who are separated from their spouses and their kids for over a year and they are shocked. My belief is the immigration should be geared to help them and not help those who arrived illegally. Why is no one speaking on their behalf but there are loads to speak for illegals?

 

The system needs fixing and if a wall or barrier is part of the solution then so be it. Diversity lottery needs to go, other countries get to pick the best and in categories that they need but the US hands out 50,000 in a lottery.. it's crazy.

Because illegals tend to vote Democrat. Most legal immigrants don't vote at all until they become citizens. There is no money or political power in advocating for legal immigrants. Those of us who have family who are legal immigrants have to do it or no one will.

Couldn't agree more. Those visas need to go to people who have skills we need and need to be totally merit based.

My 7 year old philippino nephew crawled in my lap as soon as he got home. He saw a picture of Trump and proclaimed he knew who Trump was.

 

  He told me , Trump wants to build a wall to keep bad people out. He then started singing who wants to build a wall to the tune of Frozens who wants to build a snowman .

 

He is a genuis who could count as soon as he could talk and is probably going to skip grades.

 

I asked him if walls work, he said of course Papa Bill its why my daddy built a wall around our house.
