Immigration Reform 2010 - Rep. Luis Gutierrez

[TeslaDRay]

ay least they're waving the AMERICAN flag.

[pikach2211]

what we need is a Latino MLK to organized millions of ppl to fight this struggle, not some white washed politician that's just doing it for the money..

[dire8straits]

@pikach2211 what would he/she say?

[bloodcrusher1]

iMMIGRATION ARE STRONG HARD WORKING, DEDICATED PEOPLE AND THEY SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO STAY IN THE US AND IT'S SHRIFF ARPAIO AND HIS DUM FOLLOWERS NOT KNOWING THAT MOSTLY EVERYTHING THEY HAVE WERE MADE BY HISPANICS, THEIR HOMES, THEIR FOOD, ECT....

[WilliamHCarney]

I'm laughing my ass off, because Arizona is threatening California by saying if they boycott, they will cut off power since California gets a lot from Arizona. Nice try Arizona Racist. That won't work, and the President won't allow that to happen. I just read today, May 17, that more companies from back east are cutting ties with Arizona. Excellent idea.

[0GoJo017]

No Illegal Immigrants are taking our jobs!! We have doctors lawyers and teachers losing their jobs to these illegals. What!?

[andres125]

why is everyone freaking out about this, look if you would just find a way to make them legal, learn english, and pay taxes just like the rest of us, we would end up so much better, at the same time we need to secure our borders to make sure we dont go through this again

[CarlosDCblog]

Due to racism and xenophobia, I have to moderate all comments now. What's wrong with you people? The United States is a nation of immigrants, of several racial and cultural heritages. We need to stop hatred and violence, starting for own selves and our families, we need to learn to value humanity, we all are precious human beings. Some of you need to chill!

[REFORMAMIGRATORIAUSA]

@CarlosDCblog Very well said Carlos!!!! God Bless all. Even the people who disagree.

Don't worry, Latinos are not becoming a majority by 2050. That was a joke and a lie.

Words are cheap!!!! It is only up to the immigrant community to take Obama's message and run with it. He encouraged the marches!!!!

Reforma Migratoria Ahora!!!!

Latinos venimos a trabajar fuerte por este pais. Please treat us like humans. Give us the respect we deserve.

REFORMA MIGRATORIA AHORA!!!!

[toocrazy2handle]

@REFORMAMIGRATORIAUSA, GET THE FUCK OUT OF HERE!! Respect? Hahaha, u don't deserve it. Why don't u do yourself a favor and jump on your horse(Pablo), as u probably call him and ride your ass back to wetbackland

[JCJC2009]

Yes You Can.

[NationalBrownBerets]

@infinite11823

hmm, maybe we should hunt you KraKKers down, send you back to Europe where you belong, build a barrier reef and keep you pirate pilgrim invaders off our land. You're the illegal, pilgrim!

[mvagusta750]

@NationalBrownBerets

you are incorrect pablowme

[ucannotescape]

I can't wait to throw all these fucking Democrats out in Nov.

[tjpolsen]

I agree but we still have f**king Repulicans, we need a new kind of representative

[infinite11823]

You mean we still have liberal Republicans. If we try a third party, we loose big time. Fire the liberal Republicans and get true conservatives in office. This country depends on it. If we fail in November, God help us all.

[kudretelin]

In 2005, Spain processed work papers for about 700,000 illegal immigrants. It was in fact Spains sixth amnesty in 15 years. UK, plans to offer a "selective" amnesty to the 500,000 illegal immigrants as deportation costs at £11,000 a person. The previous European Immigration Amnesties were: France: 152,000 (1998)Greece: 397,000 (1998)Italy: 308,000 (1998) Belgium gave amnesty to 25,000 illegal immigrants. Amnesty is good for the economy as the fines and taxes collected would boost the economy!

[legendofakira]

completely agree with you. however, there has to be some type of retrobution for their illegal status. people commit crimes out of desparation all the time around the world. however the crime still stands. the criminal act was completely voluntary. in order to find a common ground you have to involve ALL the facts. not just the ones that favore one particular side. the difference between a progressive debate and non prog debate are facts, not opinion.

[bjoybeads]

America is great and legalizing our workers is justice - I feel disappointed that we haven't done anything about it yet!

[elkocho1000]

unless you live in the shoes of an immigrant, you will not know if they do or do not pay they're taxes. The United States is filled with ignorant, one minded People. Some do pay taxes and probably pating your childs medicaid and food stamps..

[karenrockz93]

do you know how beneficial immigration reform can be for all you ignorants against it and that are greedy, think of it this way if you pass immigration reform make all of them pay some money (3,000 each idk) and think of all the millions who would actually pay...

[mongiu14]

immigration reform must include a path to permanent residence for those of us who came here legally, invested our own money in small

businesses (E2 visa) and created jobs for U.S. citizens.we can never become citizens and our

children age-out at 21, which means they have to get their own visa or leave.

We did everything right and contribute to the economy. yet we walk a tightrope of uncertainty every day, fearing a denial of our next visa renewal,Please, fight for us to have the same rights

[andres125]

Something needs to be done about this and i think that legalizing them would be the best idea, that way if they owe any money in taxes or whatever they pay it back, but make them learn english pay a fine and go to the back of the line

[caliguy92]

Thank God you can't vote...

[andres125]

hahaha what makes you think I can't vote?, I've been voting for two years thank you very much

[caliguy92]

But it says you're from the U.S. Virgin Islands...

[andres125]

@caliguy92 yeah don't believe everything you read caliguy92

[wazoome]

Our country is the only one in the world who insists communication ignorance is an asset. Time to become global and learn other languages, before we sink even further into the third world.

Caliguy, if you were a U.S. citizen, you'd know the Virgin Islands DOES vote. Like Puerto Rico, they are a territory of the U.S. Where are you from, dear?

[bswade007]

Round up all the illegal aliens and if they don't want to be deported then kill them. KILL THEM ALL!!! THEY ARE ALL CRIMINALS AND THEY ARE BREAKING UNITED STATES LAWS

[gracielaespinoza]

@bswade007

your are stupid

they should kill you..

[Tremleypt]

@bswade007 I am with you! Illegals kill 25 USA citizens a day! Thats over 9,000 a yr!

[OYAROIDNI1]

los de mocratas son como los perros chihuahua ladran mucho y hacen poco......los repiubicans les dieron la amistia alos imigrantes con donal regan solo que son racistas de mierda?

[ricanspartan]

I mean for real being Rican and person that believe in independents of puertorico how the hell can you get involved this bull shit are you mental! are this people perpared to die or serve for this country ? as Ricans have done time and time again . I believe also in the independent of PR but Iam new generation independent really you think these people you fighting 4 really care about Ricans hell no all hop on the vanwagon and ride the pony! time to work among ourselfs and untie as one people.

[RobertoELeegal]

Stop fakin it with dese gringos. U no dam well u don paye incum tax coz ur werkin under de tabel.

[CarlosDCblog]

@RobertoELeegal is being officially blocked for fakin under de tabel.

[PsychoSpammer]

What is going on with this reform bill at home l am overseas and cant get much current info that easy..

[salopardoj]

Knightoneday lol you are on welfare your lazy and dont look for a job ther is alot of work out there you just have to get up and and find one your using up my tax dollars oh by the way IM MEXICAN THAT HAS A JOB

[knightoneday]

luckydogiam, you said:

" Keep in mind everyone that is here... is here."

And that's exactly why our country needs to GET RID OF THE ILLEGALS already here. Then there'd be MILLIONS of jobs our own people could do. Many of which are skilled blue-collar type jobs paying more than most college-grad teachers get [plumbers, electricians, etc.].

[USConnexion]

@Knightoneday Bitcheveryday: a mexican is doing all the jobs that a lazy american doesn't accept, so just SHUT THE FUCK UP AND GET UR ASS OUT OF THE US, cause we are all immagrants here and btw i'm not mexican and probably more american than u

[Dakarn]

They do it at wages Americans refuse to work for. Don't know about you, but I wouldn't work below minimum wage for a job picking farms for 50 hours a week.

[ajaxde]

@USConnexion actually immigrants are replacing americans with those jobs, were not lazy. i alrdy posted my opinion its pretty reasonable, but i wanted to add somethng. everytime i play soccer with them at the field, they make a mess of garbage, which upsets me as to me that looks like they dont respect our land. maybe im wrong, either way they always do it.

[J1L9M8J8]

@ajaxde Have you expressed your thoughts? But don't just say it's because they make a mess and it upsets you because you don't like it. You must educate people on the matter. You must let them know that it devalues the property as well as hurt the environment. People must be able to see you making a difference (you pick it up in front of them) and then they'll think twice. Once in a while you'll get the occasional asshole, but that has nothing to do with color.

[knightoneday]

Dakam, Obama isn't trying to fix anything. Instead he and traitors in Congress like Gutierrez are trying to DESTROY our country, not fix it.

If you suddenly came home from a vacation, to find a man with a sledge-hammer in the process of battering down the structure of your house, and he implored you "to work with him,"

would you?

Or would you get him out of there in a hurry?

Obama's trying to dismantle and destroy our country. He's a puppet of "The New World Order" trying to dissolve borders

[Dakarn]

The only reason I saw this is because someone replied to another comment of mine on this video. Next time you want me to see what you wrote, reply to my comment, and not just post some random message. That way, I can come belittle you sooner.

[knightoneday]

deatha44, you said to ban outsourcing. And I agree with that as well, as long as you include banning the outsourcing going on under our very noses to the over 40 million illegals now in the U.S.

See this web address:

theamericanresistanceDOTcom/re­f/illegal_alien_numbers.

html

[knightoneday]

Gutierrez should be IMPEACHED and PROSECUTED as a TRAITOR to our country. For he is representing the interests of foreign nationals here illegally. Not the overwhelming majority of those who elected him OPPOSED to amnesty, or anything else for the illegals, except stiff fines and deportation.

Also, federal law says it's a felony CRIME to aid or abet, or to encourage or harbor, illegal aliens. So Gutierrez should be prosecuted for that as well.

[Dakarn]

I'm wondering when people will learn one simple thing. Obama CAN'T fix ANYTHING in this country! He is the President. His powers don't extend to controlling the Congress. It's CONGRESS that we should appeal to. It's Congress that we should FIX. Like the good man Robin Williams says: "Politicians, like diapers, should be changed often, and for the same reason."

(For those that don't get it... The longer you wear a diaper, the dirtier it gets.)

[asthaa1]

First of all. America welcomes so many foreigners on work visas.If the economy is down why are they announcing lot of quotas for immigrant workers. all immigrants working in us are require to pay high taxes. .. Due to wiered policies lot of exploitation is going on.

And the worst is .. rather to lesen the new immigrants coming in usa, they are compelling existing ppl to go back who are here for many years.

[alb0zfinest]

yo all im sayin is that in my opinion we should give amnesty to illegal immigrants because everybody is a immigrant because they are not just from america they are from another country.

[Dakarn]

That whole sentence makes no sense what-so-ever. Firstly, a person would not be an immigrant if they are from the country they reside in. Illegal Immigrants come to this country in spite of the laws in place. What you are suggesting is that because they broke laws, we should overlook that, because they are trying to live a better life. Should we ignore bank robbers? They are trying to live a better life. If you have more money, you can live better. Why punish them? Robbery is against the law.

[alb0zfinest]

well whoever you are you are selfish because you only think about how u want to live a good life!You should turn a new leaf and think about others!!!!!!!!!!

[Dakarn]

So I should turn a blind eye on the laws of this country in order to allow others to break laws citizens are otherwise expected to follow? Just because someone's life is implied to be worse in their country, it does not mean they are allowed to break the laws in another country. Our country cannot sustain an unlimited number of people. Immigration laws are in place for a reason. If they want to live here, they can stand in line like everyone else.

[wazoome]

We should not review immigration policies to enhance the lives of others. We should review them to enhance and unite U.S. families being divided by outdated xenophobic policies that are destroying American citizen's lives! We should review them because blind nationalism doesn't help a country grow, it spirals the economy to a point it cannot recover. And we are seeing the effects of this ever since we implemented our nationalistic fears. Immigraton laws today are founded on fear not progress.

[caliguy92]

We should enforce immigrartion laws and make all immigration law violators go back to their nations...

[Tihbialdunav]

@caliguy92 , the reason why you were born a US citizen is because of the LAX immigration laws before 1950s when ANYONE who showed up got citizenship. Now people have to wait for a Green Card for 20-30 years and get married for papers-THE only way to become a legal resident. Only difference between legal and illegal immigrant is...a FAKE MARRIAGE!

[luckydogiam]

By terrorist, you must mean the American Government, right? Remember, it was known of the "Detroit Bomber's" plans (his own father told US authorities!) and still, it was allowed it to happen. Change the dates to 9/11/01, this was a carbon copy and luckily flopped. Obama/Bush, same thing! Same shit, different stink. It's all a joke to them. It's a joke how anyone can even trust this country. If this country is so great, how is every major US brand made elsewhere? Yup, more $ if it's made THERE!

[TheNmutua]

@john51880 ...Hun, U said; "For security reason we have to control who comes in this contry" The reform bill are for those people who arre already here!!!!!

[TheNmutua]

Immigrants came here to have a good life. Why so stingy and hateful????

[TheNmutua]

Yes!, We came from small minority. And we are stating to make noise to shake people like u.... Si pwede!!!!!!!

[TheNmutua]

@john51880 .... Hun, this land is not yours! U need recollection. Your here coz of ur ancestors who came here too squat too. U need to open ur eyes. What would u do and feel if the simenole indians take back their land and u need to go back to wherever ur ancestors came from???

And calling "Dirty" to unions such as acorn is pitty. Those unions have humanitarian mind and consideration for families who are broken coz of this problem. ...

[TheNmutua]

@VelvetHammer73...Your eyes is widely shut just like ur butt (i think thats the joke there).... I wont blame u. U are what u are. I bet u dont believe in God too?

@john51880

hun, maybe u like this woman huh? coz u always agree with her. Dont u have ur own voice????

[john51880]

This low life elected offical could not stay that way if the Illinois Democrats didn't rig the district with jerrymandering. Your opinion is a small minority. The dirty unions and groops like acorn help you make some noise. But this BS is going to come to an end!

[emmcord]

If you're so fucken smart and brilliant and seem to represent the people than run for office. I bet no one would elect a stupid piece of shit like you. America is built on diversity. If you don't like it then leave. America is going to become more and more diversified. Accept it. Soon enough, latino's will be the majority of this nation. I can't wait for you to kill yourself or do something stupid when that day comes.

[john51880]

The dumbest slogan ever "America love it or leave it"!! Mexican's get mad when you infer they are not americans because mexico is in north america. Sorry we are going to toughen and inforce the law. You can wish me harm all you like. Voters are educating themselfs about how the demcrats abused election law and abused the united states public. We will correct the problems in time!

[emmcord]

Again, you are stereotyping people. I am Mexican and I certainly don't get mad. I love America. I want to be able to study and go to medical school. I want to be able to pay taxes and help the economy. I have the grades and potential but the only thing I'm missing is a social security number. And, I'm sorry but didn't Republicans set the example? I mean the election between George W. Bush and Algore was pretty skeptical...

[john51880]

I hope you can come here and get a degree! But do it legaly! We just have to protect the borders and know who comes and goes. The polotics in the untied states is hurting people like you. Mexicans are pandered to by democrats. They want your vote. They want your labor. But they want you in your "place" by keeping you down. w Government programs that give you thing keep you under their thumb.

[TheNmutua]

There is no other way but this proposal reform bill. If the senate do not approve this bill the problem is stil unsolve. The problem is will still go on and will never stop. The reform bill are for those hard working people w/o any crime. This bill can solve identity theft,people will report the crimes, will stimulate the economy and so on... This bill is not a total lottery for them. The bill is a process too.

[TheNmutua]

illegal immigrantion is not new. Great Indians has name them; White People. This land is originaly from Seminole Indians. Ur anscestors came here to have good life and even some are illegally here. My point is this country is for everybody. Some people are not lucky enough or not rich enough to migrate here from abroad. Its so imposible to deport millions of them. The solution is already on the table. They will help boost the economy. Kindly read the reform bill by Sen. Gutierez.

[john51880]

In alot of countrys if you sneak in the shoot you or put you in prison!

[deatha44]

yeah , in those same countires they have communism, whats your point?

[johnnybravo234]

Oops, I meant 79% of Americans disapprove of an amnesty bill.

[johnnybravo234]

Amnesty will be a disaster. It has nothing to do with caring about these immigrants. It has one sole purpose: increase votes for the left. Who do you think the "new" citizens are going to vote for?? This bill is the final death blow to the united states constitution. We will never be able to take our government back.. peacefully. The socialist scumbags are going to cram this down our throats at all costs. Welcome to Amerika. Papers please

[emmcord]

@johnnybravo234

I can't believe what you're saying. I've never heard such an ignorant and stupid comment. First of all, if you were truly American you would realize that immigration is the basic foundation of this country. Also, do you know how to spell "America?" Whether you openly admit it or not, your basic opposition to immigration reform seems to be racism or some sort of prejudice. It's sad that this country is full of putrid bigots like you.

[johnnybravo234]

I spelled America with a "k" to symbolize our dictators. The immigrants that you are referring to are the ones who came to the US legally. I don't care where you come from so long as you abide by our immigration laws. Your response is characteristic of a typical liberal: 1. Insult, 2. irrellivant argument, 3. pull a discrimination card, 4. Insult

I am sorry if I think a bunch of people who already broke our laws even before acquiring citizenship should be granted citizenship.

~ common sense

[emmcord]

@johnnybravo234

Undocumented immigrants are not dictators. They do not run every aspect of our nation. How dare you compare one group of people to one like Hitler. Again, you're coming of more like a racist. And..

1. I insulted you because you begin insulting undocumented immigrants first.

2. If I'm still talking about immigration, then it's not an irrelevant argument.

3. It is discrimination if you're insulting the way immigrants speak by placing a "K" in America

[johnnybravo234]

You missed just about, well uh, everything I just said. You are trying to compare legal immigration to illegal immigration so your argument is irrelavant. The "k" is from communist russia. I was comparing our fascist government to that of the USSR. Judging by your responses to other peoples comments, I think you are much too young and naive to even be speaking about this topic. You have absolutely no concept of econonmics or even common sense, for that matter.

[emmcord]

You're right, I am young. On the other hand, you seem to biased towards the subject to offer any sort of contribution. Many of the people in the nation would disagree with you. And you're right I don't know about know much about economics because I'm only 17. But I do know that when someone poses an argument that have to be concise and offer validation. You're saying shit about common sense. Common sense is basically shit. If you want to argue for something show me statistics.

[emmcord]

Also, I have more of a right to talk about this subject because I have experienced personally. I don't have fucken common sense I have experience. AND our government is a democratic republic if you didn't know. We have separate parties that can run and win. As a conservatist, you must realize you're mistakes. At least I'm man enough to realize that I make mistakes, how about you?

[johnnybravo234]

At 17 years of age, what experience do you have? The majority of Americans do not want immigration reform or health reform. If our country is indeed a democratic republic, then why are these bills being passed? The only mistake I have made is let corrupt socialist politicians ram unconstitutional bills down our throats. Washington loves people like you, otherwise known as sheep.

[johnnybravo234]

Health reform:

By health reform I meant the corrupt and porkified senate and congressional bills that have been passed. 86% of Americans did not approve the senate bill while 59% disapproved congresses bill.

As for me, the second I found out that tort reform was neglected in both bills, I was enraged. The lack of tort reform demonstrated that both of the bills are absolutely corrupt and not about "health care."

Immigration:

79% of Americans approve of an amnesty bill for illegals.

[emmcord]

I have family members that are undocumented. I wish you were in my position. What if you had family members who were illegal? Would you arrogantly call immigration on them? I bet you wouldn't, otherwise you'd be a heartless asshole. These bills are being passed because the people voted Democrats into power. Just because you don't agree with a bill does not make it constitutional. That's why we have the judicial branch and judicial review. Also, it doesn't matter what you say.

[garyomglol]

Wow good for you....a self proclaimed felon! Harboring of illegal alien is against the law...called treason. Punishable by federal prison and fine. YOU are a dumb fuck.. Hurry and quickly delete before anyone else finds out. Or ICE would be knocking on your door fool!

[emmcord]

Have you heard of law 245(i) mudafucker?

[garyomglol]

NO , describe that to me. And you misspelled another word dumb ass.

[emmcord]

I spelled mudafucker wrong on purpose because I really don't give a shit. Also, you don't start a sentence with "And" you stupid bitch. In addition to that, the "," should be directly after "No."I don't need to explain anything to you. You seem to think you're intelligent; how about you go out and research it.

[garyomglol]

@emmcord , Illegal is NOT legal. Its not my fault they came here illegally! Come here like the rest of the immigrants...the LEGAL way and I won't have any problems with that.

Ignorant dumb ass blaming others of judging when you committed a crime? Jumping over the fence is illegal retard! Now go cry me a river and ask if any American citizen would give a shit.

[emmcord]

Also, you said "ask if any American citizen would give a shit.." Um, your fucken wrong dumbass. Obama, the president of the U.S. gives a shit. People defending this bill give a shit. It's going to pass so you can go suck a big donkey dick, you mudaFUCKA!

[garyomglol]

No one give a shit about your illegal shit ..Obama is gona give you change alright. He's going to send your wet ass back home. Then you can suck on the donkey you've been talking about. Dumb ass!

[emmcord]

Can you stop implying that no one gives a shit? Because obviously if this reform is coming into consideration than people DO GIVE A SHIT. Anyway, again I can't be send "back home" you retard.

[johnnybravo234]

If your family members came here legally, they wouldn't have anything to worry about... I don't believe felons should be granted amnesty. It's a shame our "public servants dont honor honor us like they are supposed to.

[emmcord]

It doesn't matter what you say because it's going to pass. I can't wait for you to see this bill being passed and you sitting down like a little bitch complaining...

[garyomglol]

rofl; wanna bet? The day will never come...just keep on dreaming you illegal old man.

[emmcord]

why the fuck are you talking about me getting laid? That has to do with nothing on immigration reform. People that tend to change the subject and insult are usually people that can't admit their faults. I'm not going to argue with you because I know that I'm not some old man. Maybe you have homosexual tendencies and seek to meet an older gentleman...but that's not me.

[garyomglol]

Hey its not funny anymore, don't describe your secrets to me man. I'm not into that!

Now go on...quickly delete your last post...cuz that would get you in deep fecal matter. Its not dominos at the door remember...its ICE agents coming to get them!

[emmcord]

You're an idiot. I have never hated anyone in my life, but I hate people like you. I can tell by the way you act that you're fucken pathetic. I don't need to prove anything to you or anyone. I can tell that you're probably someone who hates his life and feels that need to ridicule others (poorly) to help make himself feel better. So good bye mudafucka!

[emmcord]

@johnnybravo234

4. How about you get a brain you dumb little bitch? How's that for an insult.

[SirDivster]

He is all heart and no brains.This clown must go.

[emmcord]

@SirDivster

He is brains apparently if he got elected and won. I suggest you not criticize someone of his political position. Obviously, he worked hard to get to where he is. He actually wants to do something with his life. I won't even stoop down as to insult you for your stupidity.

[californiausa1]

levy1223.... Deporting 15 million people would be an economic disaster for t his country, so an Immigration reform is the solution of this problem, let's give good reform to this hard workers and stop separating families because their pain and suffering is just as real as your HATE and anger. IMMIGRATION REFORM NOW !!!

[DerailAmnestydotcom]

Actually, deporting illegals and getting them to take as many of their anchor babies back with them as they can, would save U.S. taxpayers billions. You clearly don't understand much about economics or taxation in this country.

[emmcord]

@californiausa1

I agree.

[levy1223]

The big lie I read illegal will do the job american will not do. There are many LEGALS who followed the rules and do the jobs illegals are stealing from them. Come here legally

[levy1223]

The problem it with the govement of the counrties where illegal come from. Most of thoses countries have to fix there own problems not export them to the USA. Illegals need to go back home and fix there country. Not make there country into america. Which they already done to LA.

[emmcord]

@levy1223

Think about this. What if all 12 million undocumented immigrants were to suddenly disappear. From every job, from every part of the U.S. Now, think about how the economy would fall.

[levy1223]

Representative Luis Gutierrez has over 35% unemployment rate. If his bill passes it will mean 60 to 70% unemployment rate They will over run our schools, health care, roads, crime will rocket up. He and his bill will end america as we know it.  He know the problem is to fix the countries where they come from not fix it by over running america

[garyomglol]

Guiterrez is a traitor to America!!! Hang him by the balls!!!!

[scalesofjustice0]

fuck guiterez.... deport illegal immigrants because they drive down wages and open business illegally.... and manipulate the american people to believe that it's okay to pay less for unskilled work....

[bangmeister]

why are you complaining over crappy jobs that mexicans are "taking" why dont you get an education and get a career instead

[scalesofjustice0]

Sure! You know how to communicate better than I can...  You are full of shit! In any event, illegal immigration has brought down wages in the masonary union field according to the white man... Especially illegal mexicans... I wish not to capatalize that nation...

[DerailAmnestydotcom]

That's a really irrelevant thing to say, isn't it? After all, illegal aliens aren't legally entitled to take ANY jobs, even if it's one that might be filled by someone who hasn't gotten a great deal of education.

[isralien23]

If they take them out they loose the economy battle for sure many states depand on these immigrants (CA, TX, AZ,FL), if they make them leagal than these people will have to pay taxes, car insurance, state fees, etc.

A guy who works as a mover or in demolition for $8 an hour doing work no American will do is not going to leave his job and steal an "American" job. Americans won't work in Demolition for $20 an hour, they will because this money supports their families back home very well.

[glockboy187]

All the racist whites how did your ancestors get to america by IMMIGRATING! thats what america is a mix of all races that immigrate. its just whites where here first because they stole the land from NATIVES! immigration reform should be passed in order for america to achieve peace and become a stronger country one day racism is going to be a thing of the past once we all learn to get along

[emmcord]

I agree. Those nativists need to learn a lesson.

[chiletumadrecabron99]

si se puede !!!!!

[TheFloridianGuy]

Just like Health Care reform that the dems just shoved down our throats, so will the amnesty legislation pass as well. Obama is not going to be allowed to fail. No body is doing anything about any of this. America needs to wake up and take our country back now, so there is still something to take back.

[luisk8nj]

america is awake.

[zandossantos]

You guys are dumb. I just dont understand why you guys hate immigrants so much all you guys or at least most of you are immigrants as well. THe only different is that you family have been here for long time if my family had been here as much as yours I would be an legally immigrant. Unless your ancestry were INDIANS or NATIVES however you want to call it you are a IMMIGRANT too so just wake up and stop say dumb stuff. We ALL ARE IMMIGRANTS YOU JUST DIDN'T REALIZED IT YET

[emmcord]

Finally America will be able to make some change. I am sick of living through an area full of ignorance and narrow-mindness. Good bye to President Bush and the years of shit he implemented in America.

[californiausa1]

YES, IMMIGRATION REFORM, ASAP !!!!

[MiamiBound333]

Impossible... Not going to happen. Just like all the other blanket amnesty bills, it to shall fail :) With 10.2% unemployment and almost 70% of likely voters(LEGAL US CITIZENS) against Immigration reform, this bill is Dead On Arrival. Just a political ploy to get him the Hispanic votes just in time for the 2010 elections!! Sooo pathetic HAHAHA!!!

[CarlosDCblog]

@MiamiBound333 Immigration Reform is good for the economy, it stimulates the creation of more jobs, the governments will get plenty of funding from fees paid by millions of undocumented immigrants, and most of them are not Hispanics but Indigenous peoples.

[garyomglol]

@CarlosDCblog ; how does it create more jobs when all hotels and fast food are full of illegal immigrants? The citizens especially the younger kids can't get a job at Mc Donald's because of the illegals right now! 80 % of illegals are on welfare with their anchor babies putting a drain on the American taxpayers! Indigenous people are American Indians and they live on reservations. All you illegal immigrants claim to be indigenous...claiming yourself cherokee and stuff..how funny is that?

[zandossantos]

Don't be stupid you can't get a job at Mc Donald's if you aren't legally here. Second most of the jobs done by Immigrants are jobs that AMERICANS WON'T DO. Third about the unemployment it won't just matter because who is already employed won't change the job just because they became legally. Forth if you are legally you can open up a store or a restaurant so it will create more jobs. You just don't know what you're talking about. You're just one more ignorant person who lives in your own world

[john51880]

This is not reform, We are being colonized! No Amnesty! Enforce the law and secure our borders! The labor unions, SEIU and ACORN are in bed together. Vote Democrats OUT!

[emmcord]

Yeah like the Republicans are so good. Have you seen the mess they left Obama with?

[VelvetHammer73]

hahahahaha you are a joke!

[john51880]

Yes he is! hahaha!!

[wetweasel56]

He wants to reward people for breaking our laws!

10% Unemployment is just about the number of illegals we have in the US.

Are Americans not as important as people who break our laws and steal benefits from our society?

DEPORT THEM NOT REWARD THEM!

[zandossantos]

Another person who are influenced by other person and don't know the truth. You guys don't realized a great way that we are to make money for the country. We would have to pay taxes, we would buy cars. We would start to spend a way much more money. You just have no ideia what you are saying. Unemployment? Won't matter 90% done by ilegal or legal immigrant are the job that people like you WILL NEVER DO.

[garyomglol]

@zandossantos ;you are talking out of your ass. Explain how your buddy Jose Mendoza can't take my order in English? Deport 12 million of you illegals and America will instantly have 12 million job openings! Instant economic recovery! You illegals come here for Welfare, free food , free section 8 rent. 90% of you don't work. Criminal scums go home! Why you stay when you are not welcomed? And why you burn our flag at each protest after we, the American people gave you all this? GO HOME!

[bangmeister]

you gave them nothing what the fuck are you talking about. every mexican who is hired by a legitimate buisiness pays taxes just like everyone else. The only difference is that they dont get social security back only federal and medicaid.

[garyomglol]

fuck you for NOT knowing how to read. Did I every mention "mexican"? NO you dumb fuck! I said illegal immigrants! And my taxes DO pay for illegals who punch out anchor babies to receive welfare. YOU are a dumb ass for not knowing the difference between "ILLEGAL" and legal.

[emmcord]

@garyomglol

@garyomglol

You said "especially illegal mexicans" so how about you shut the fuck up. And, show me some facts or statics that state that immigration reform will bring down wages. While you that, I'll give you a link that says otherwise. You stupid piece of fucken shit.

[garyomglol]

@emmcord ; where did I state that? You don't know how to read do you? Lemme help you. First kneel down and suck my cock! Then buy new glasses you blind fuck!

[emmcord]

I just fucken quoted your dumbass how about you go back and check. You stupid piece of shit. And it shows how mature you really are swearing at a 17 year old..nice stupid bitch.

[garyomglol]

wash your mouth of with little boy!

[emmcord]

Fuck you. I would also suggest you to stop calling me "dumb" because I'm at the top of my class and have been accepted to several Ivy league schools. I bet you're just some pathetic fat ass sitting by his computer living with his mother.

[garyomglol]

Top of class and can't spell "write"...rofl ! hahahahahah You go to ghetto school much?

[emmcord]

haha no, I go to good school that has several kids who make it to ivy league schools. What school did you go to? Probably come stupid ass community college. I can honestly say that what I stated is true and I really don't give two shits whether you believe me or not.

[garyomglol]

you are one grumpy old man with no brains, claiming you 17 isn't going to get you laid anytime soon.

[emmcord]

hahah that's funny, I am 17 and I don't really give a fuck what you say. And I have a gf so getting laid isn't issue. Please don't describe yourself and place that description on me.

[john51880]

They are a total loss to the economy. It should be a felony to hire them in the first place. One minimum wage worker get hurt and goes to the hospital. The bill for one day in intensive care costs more than the taxes 100 minimum wage workers pay. Remember the lowest earners pay almost no taxes. So you have no idea what you are talking about!

[emmcord]

go on google and search "immigration reform can boost economy" a recent study by a UCLA professor indicates otherwise BITCH

[luckydogiam]

Read every report. It says nothing. Keep in mind everyone that is here... is here. Where are these new jobs? How are they supposed to be created, by rich newcomers from poor countries? The economy is in trouble because every major US brand/product is made elsewhere for cheap labor, no QA, or inspections to claim it's safety. If the US wants to allow its citizens a future, Made in the USA would exist and ban outsourcing.

[deatha44]

Ban outsourcing....I agree

keep the jobs here. But the big companies cant make top dollars off of Americans if they have to pay Americans a certain amount to make the product.. So theyd rather pay the poor in other countries to work for less than a dollar a day then charge you a RIDICULOUS amount to purchase the same product and our greed fuels the machine. Thats capitalism for ya heh?

[emmcord]

@garyomglol Gary, first of all, how about you fuck yourself. Economics doesn't work that way you retard. 12 millions undocumented immigrants include men, women, and children. AND it's just an estimate. Now, do you really think children will be working. Another thing, if 90% of us don't work, then why are you saying there will be 12 million job openings? Can you stop talking out of your ass you dumbass. Undocumented immigrants don't come here for free welfare, they seek an opportunity.

[john51880]

If any one does their home work they will find that illegals are a huge drain on the economy. It will be much cheaper to secure the borders. The taxes a person pays from a low level job versus the taxes used to support their children in school alone is bankruting this country.

[emmcord]

Um, sorry mudafucka but you're wrong. If you had done your HOMEWORK you'd find out that its more expensive to secure border rather than have immigration reform.

[john51880]

WRONG!

[emmcord]

Um, sorry mudafucka but you're wrong. If you had done your HOMEWORK you'd find out that its more expensive to secure border rather than have immigration reform.

[john51880]

Remember it is the unions and acorn that oganized the la razza rallys. The Democrats need their votes so amnesty is the new way to steal elections!

[DoniGuzzo]

There a couple of senators that are for immigration reform..Luis Gutierrez is, I believe, is the only Rep. to give a voice to the community regarding this issue... but I may be wrong i'll have to look into it

[USAmerican100]

Yes, Luis Gutierrez gives a voice to the anti-American foreign invader community.

He is a traitor and should be permanently deported for treason, along with all the other traitors in DC that oppose Comprehensive Immigration ENFORCEMENT!

[DoniGuzzo]

Treason? Are you serious!!

[USAmerican100]

Hell yes I am serious, supporting a foreign takeover of the USA is treason. Ever hear of Benedict Arnold?

These pro open borders / US citizenship for half of Latin America politicians are traitors to the American people and Constitution, no different than Benedict Arnold was.

[CarlosDCblog]

@USAmerican100 your concept of treason is biased on racism and xenophobia.

[john51880]

It is not imagration it is colonization! But what out they will quickly be calling you a racist for having an opinion other than theirs! Your heritage is like your teeth. If you don't maintain it it will go away!

[OYAROIDNI1]

ok john51880 can you tell what,s your solution who's goit to feed your ass bcois 90% of the food you eat is thank's to the imigrant's workers, do you seed a black man,white ,asian or musil working in the fields? how you moros give visa to the people that come to destroy this contry and you don't to people that come to feed your lacy ass? do you thing food is produce in jewel stores don't be a dunce you grampa come from somwhere in europa why he don't go back?

[emmcord]

nice one

[john51880]

Nessesity is the mother of invention. Cotton used to be picked by hand. Now they use a machine that picks many many times more per hr than a human could. If farmers did not have cheap manuel labor to use they would find another way. I actuly have no proublem with work visa's. But for security we have to control who comes into the country.

[emmcord]

Security, are you fucken kidding me? You're worried about security. The reason we need to have some sort of security is because of the bad image you conservatists gave America. Because of the "war on terror" practically everyone in the world hates us. We have people trying to bomb us everyday. Give that a thought.
