What about their kids?
    And that 3 million are costing state and local governments a heck of a lot of money and in turn, us. Healthcare, education etc etc

    Point is there were virtually no laws. It's was as easy as coming. So when you say my grandpa and his brothers came here legally it's a horrible comparison. I also would love to know how you absolutely know without question he came here legally? How do you know he wasn't one of the hundreds of thousands who were just made legal because those in charge just realized there were sommany Europeans here illegally they just made them legal?

    FYI there XVille, the same NY Times says that close to 75% of illegals here in the US are actually employed. Close to three out of four here are gainfully employed, that participation rate is absolutely insane

    This quote is so ridiculous. How did they get that stat? Do they know where all these illegals are?? And why aren’t the employers being punished and the illegals being sent home?

    Fake news

    I know without question because he received a Visa and came thru ellis island, and yes when he came thru, it was more lax than it was now but that doesnt mean I cant compare. He still followed laws which when he came over there were some at the time, illegals dont follow laws.

    You and left america may think it's an awful comparison, but that doesnt make it true.

Also, I fear that my neighbor's leaves will blow into my yard and make me spend too much time cleaning up after him. Finally there are small children living nearby and I'm fearful that they will run into my yard and bite me. So, I am going to the next Muirfield Assn. meeting and insist that I be allowed to build a wall around my entire yard for these reasons and that they MUST pay for it.

    I'll let you all know how that turns out.
    90% White and an average income of $138,590. I would love to live without walls in Muirfield!! NO WALLS!!!!

    I think everyone should post their opinions along with their zipcode. Then we could look at their personal demographics.

    That is hilarious. You are doing well my friend. Keep doing what you are doing.

    P.S. Mods - can we move to politics thread where this belongs?
    Where does this belong? Is this thread by existing violating your safe space? You seem to have a problem with me even posting this thread.

    You are a little man.

    Here’s an interesting read:
    https://www.migrationpolicy.org/arti...ized-migration
    General conclusion: walls only work to divert illegal migrants.

    Again I ask, is the wall really the best use of money to solve a problem, or a is this a political stunt? Will it actually make the problem worse because now the public will think we have a solution?
    The migration policy institute? Do you take a minute to look at the source?

    Israel has a wall. They shut down migration. They have automatic weapons that will fire on anyone that crosses the no man's land. You know how many people those weapons kill? Zero. Because you would be a fool to cross the no mans land and encounter automatic machine gun fire.


    That is a wall. But the Migration Policy Institute thinks that walls don't work. I heard the ACLU doesn't want a wall either, why don't you post an article from them. Our current immigration system is based on the ACLU. They have done more than any other group to determine our immigration policy. When the shit hits the fan, people need to remember who was in charge.
