      Yeah, don't forget that the rest was stolen from them Injuns.

      Nasty savages that wouldn't sit down whilst being deprived of their land & lifestyle. The nerve of some people.

        They signed it over to us in the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo, then we PAID them for the land, although it was half the price of what we offered them for the land before the war. To the victors go the spoils, and we got northern Mexico for half price.

          Some are, some aren't. Whilst the pressence of illegal immigrants is not as pronounced as many far right British parites like to proclaim, it is still an issue here.

          Most of our immigration is legal, however. Belonging to the European Union essentially means that Britain has to open its doors to just about anyone from any other member state. It's a good thing to my mind - more British people actually work abroad than foreigners coming to work here.

                      I don't see what any of that has to do with entering the country illegally.

                      How about this for a moronic point? Somebody robs you of your watch, then takes it home. Do you get to break into their house to retrieve it? No. How about if somebody robbed your grandfather, took his watch, and put it in their house. Do you get to break into that house 150 years later and retrieve it? Double no.

                      I'm not sure if he just lacks a point, or if he's trying to say the Mexicans have the moral high ground, but either way, Sesh gets the "double no" on his idiotic stealing Arizona comment.

                        Try going into Mexico illegally and see what happens. Better yet, try going in armed like their drug thugs do here. They will do something about it and at best, you end up in a Mexican jail.

                          The bottom line is the Democrats want amnesty because they want all the votes. This is what it's about. Power. Period. Not to help anyone.

                            On a human level, I'd like to think I could show some empathy toward someone from another country who wants to come to America for a chance at a better life.

                            However, I really don't see the problem with Arizonian law enforcement using racial profiling (um, the illegals there are most likely going to be Mexican, so some form of racial targeting is necessary by default) to stop people, ask them for their proof of identification and detain them if they shouldn't be in this country. Showing identification is just a necessary thing in this country, be it buying airline tickets/boarding a plane, using a credit card (one SHOULD be asked by various store clerks for a driver's license when using a credit card for any and every purchase), etc.

                            Yes, this country was founded by immigrants (the whole "Native American"/Indian biz to one side), but this isn't the 1920's anymore. The country may well have been founded by immigrants, but the USA is pretty well established by now. My own level of sympathy for the rights of those who made their first act to get into America one of breaking the law are just plain used up. If I feel this way, I can only imagine the way the majority of LEGAL RESIDENTS OF ARIZONA must feel. There are procedures to follow in order to become a citizen. Illegal immigrant aliens decided not to follow them. Maybe detaining these people when they are found and having them work in non-voluntary penal system labor camps building a wall from Texas to California, and then chucking them over the wall when they are through, is the message that needs to be sent.

                            Illegal aliens from Canada are okay in my book, though, despite my being able to hear them up there at night sharpening up their skates, getting ready to come down here and STEAL OUR CHEESE!

                            thome, got any extra aluminum foil? My Reynolds Wrap bandana is starting to wear a bit thin.

                              I am tired of people always faulting the US for conquering the "native" population (let's put that word in quotes) and robbing/stealing land to establish a country. that history is out of our control ....and the US is one among 200 other nations with a similar history. Today the difference is illegal Mexicans -- and other nationalities so don't rail me on that stereotype -- are invading the US at an alarmingly unchecked rate that has big Negative consequences that seem to outweigh the benefits (but let's be factual, no PC: of all immigrants, illegals from mexico have the biggest negative impact).

                              US must defend its borders ...from invaders who think they are entitled to walk in on us and establish residency. Let's use a bigger umbrella term: Homeland Security. The US is trying to use a legal system rather than shoot on sight. But oh no, that's not good enough either.

                                I'm surprised with people being happy about a law where the cops can ask you for ID if they don't like the look of you and I assume can arrest you if you fail to show any ID to them.
