Our Govt. for some known reason defers this question and resort to an arcane first come first serve immigration policy (although our ally countries like UK, Canada etc. have defined clear prioritization criteria). Law makers even cite all men are equal as an excuse for non-prioritized immigration system.
The net result is that, people who are fighting for the flag are deprived of the basic right to live in the country, whereas many terrorists are American citizens!
A vast majority of people around the world apply for immigration to USA, including scholars, soldiers and even terrorists. Our current immigration quota is already more than the healthy limit that the society can absorb. So rampant increase of immigration is not the solution.
Therefore it comes down to the question of prioritization criteria (which many other countries with high demand for immigration use).
it saddens me how the system is so corrupted. What are the "American" afraid of? Losing their jobs to hard working immigrants once allowed to work legally? Afraid of immigrants reaching to the top and taking advantage of things like EDUCATION that many "Americans" take for granted?
Most of the current immigration laws make no sense. It is underlined with prejudice and malice.
Please start caring about families as that's all we have when there is no one else to turn to.
the government knows no life without a family and l don't know they still try to separate people , America is a immigrant country, that make this country so strong, powerfully, what they have to know immigrants are a part for economic of america.
This makes me so mad and its obvious that Immigration is the most important issue. We cannot fix the economy and move on with healthcare until we fix the immigration issue.
Remember minoritys traditionally vote Democratic so the GOP likes to use "Immigration" as a wedge issue to rally up there ugly racist voters base. Trust me though...they really need friends these days. Not only have they lost almost all minoritys they are also losing the wealthy ones too!! Anyone with half a brain is on to their game. Recently we have seen the DHS lighten up on Immigrants and detention. Unfortuately we are moving forward in baby steps to get results. We must continue to fight!!
By the way juceme67 this is not new that Immigrants have been treated badly in this country. This country has a habit of exploiting them for "cheap labor" and then trying to keep them in an "underground status" to continue there BS. I am US borned and disgusted with the behavior that I see and the ignorance of some people out there. Just remember not all American citizens are ignorant. There are many fighting for your rights our there. You sure are right when you say we have to get United!!!
My great grandfather came from Italy and my father fought in world war II and we both believe that we are a proud nation of Immigrants. Whenever I here people scapegoat there problems and blame them on the "undocumented" in this country it sickens me. Everyday I fight for the rights of Immigrants and I hope soon we will see a reformed Immigration system that gives us all hope. Our system has torn apart familys and riped friends and loves ones apart. When will the madness end!!!!
Immigrants we have to get united so it cannot happen to anyone no more. they use and then after they want to thrown us out. This is the way this country have succeded using the immigrant people and no rewarding them. After they have fought for them. this is an abuse of the dignity of a human being
I honestly can say that it is really F**k up that someone would send an immigrant soldier and promise him that when he gets back his/her family will be okay. But what happens, the promise is lost, they got to their house and arrest his family. Why fight for a country that treats your family like criminals. But one day, I will make sure that everything changes. One day you people will know who I am. And for that discrimination going around. I will make sure to shut your mouth.
Probably You think You are better because you born in US. You are proud America with sticker on your car bumper.
It's very easy to post such opinions. Probably You never had bigger problem than how to get 1$ for can of Coke.
I can picture people like You - complaining on everything - especially immigrants. In Harley's bar with Miller Lite. 200 miles from bigger city. Maybe You lost your job in factory because you was to lazy to go to school. An You blame immigrants for everything.

This serviceman should have served his country first and foremost and refuse to marry this woman until she was legally permitted in the US. Instead, he betrayed his country and married an invading foreign national. Live the consequences.
Check You family tree. Where You came from - Europe, Africa or Asia.
I'm immigrant too. I pay taxes, SS, health insurance. I run my own business, make good money (above average). I don't complain - just hard work. Remember - America was build by immigrants. Illegal too.
And - don't remind me that I have to improve my English. I know. But I also speak Russian, German and Polish. How many languages do You speak? ......

Good grief! Another illegal alien sob story. Your time here is up and not everyone who wants to stay in the US gets too, and marrying a US serviceman and having a baby (love and procreating) with them is not an automatic ticket to getting to stay and how dare anyone suggest otherwise.
it is ridiculous how this country, government, senate, congress so unfair w/ million of illegals throughout the nation, they forget that great leaders have helped people in the similar situation to change their status to people who really deserve, but they are so ignorants that don't realize that, poor government.......!!!!!! and CONGRESS!
I blame all the extremist anti-immigrant groups like the minutemen. They are the ones that push for these kinds of injustices against our people.

I think it's messed up to do that, really in honesty they shouldn't have let them go to battle if they were going to deport them.
