IDK, wasn't thinking clearly. This same debate happened on the last community i was on, did not end well. Facist moderators ended up banning people who think differently than them.

You won't get banned for having an opinion, just don't whinge when someone blasts you for it.

I find this to be an internal problem with how we operate rather than an immigrant problem. I mean legal citizens can buy a duplicate ss to obtain benifits.

I just think the whole attitude to immigrants seems a little hypocritical.

Your thread on the little Mexican boy has spawned a monster topic.

why? poncho (who's real name is tyler) maybe half mexican,...but he parents are legal as is he,....he was born here, makeing him an american just as much as anyone,.....

besides i wouldnt let my feelings twards immigration askew befriending a little boy,.....

i'm not racist,....i just have a problem with the influx of illegal immigration,....

there's also the issue of national security that no one has brought up,....
its not just that i dont want everyone hopein the borders and draining the welfare system,....alot of are immigration laws are set up to keep the deviants out

So it's better to spend your hard earned tax dollars on war and killing than on Mexicans?

it IS an internal problem but one that relates directly to the issue we are discussing

the war is a totally different issue,....and one that i will not get off into here

however, i will say, our tax dollars are spent on much more than use funding the millitary,....and war,...

we have hungry needy AMERICANS that could use that help as well,....
and while i will admit, supporting illegal aliens is not the only way our tax dollars are illspent,...it is the one that directly relates to the issue we are discussing

And we're doing a totally good job of housing and supporting them.

i got too caught up and didnt get to respond to this statement the way i'd like,....

i enjoy kerouac's words, just as i enjoy the music of the hippie movement,....i can identify with and read/listen/watch many things that i necessarily agree with whole heartedly,.....
so this statement really bares not on me,.....as i'm sure there's many thing that kerouac might have done that would disgust me as well,.....

my political and eithical views can be quite different from the things i expose myself too

Why do Americans have more right to land that we have no ancestorial connection with while Mexicans clearly do?
