omg im crying,, people just dont understand...i had to give up going to a UC because i couldnt afford it, it hurts so bad, i dont understand why this is happening to me. and ya know what husrts the worst, when i see other kids my age, drop out of school and not give a shit about their lives, i work so hard and in the end i get nothing, while people who do nothing get it on a silver platter, its so unfair.

Thank you, Senator Durbin! This speech brings tears to my eyes.

American Dream? America is full of SHIT! I swear to god I'm ready to start bitching about America the second I get deported you ungrateful fat-asses! Lets see what you do without all of the fast food Mexican, Chinese restaurants! You'll probably go into a 2nd Great Depression from all of the retards bitching about "their taking our jobs" when they are still unemployed after all of the immigrants get deported. I now FINALLY understand how racist this country I used to defend with all my heart is.

Agreed. We want immigrants.  Of all colors. But they must arrive legally!

All these turds who claim we don't want brown people are simply RACISTS.

@gtfoomfg

So what do you recommend. We let in 6 billion people when 1 student drops out?

I bet there's a lot of scum in that 6 billion too. Just look at how much scum we get with the 12 million mexicans who have busted in.

But the bottom line is Americans OWN this nation. It doesn't matter to us what OTHERS deserve. They will just have to GO AND MAKE IT ON THEIR OWN.

@LameBrainMcCain 6 bil ppl certainly deserve more chance than American kids who drop out of high school. enuff said.

[Freedan111]

Why are you giving these "kids" a chance? They chose to continue to break the law by staying here illegally when they reach adulthood. What about all the people that are waiting to come to the US leagally? Shouldn't they get a chance since they are doing things the right way instead of jumping the fence and dropping kids?

[LameBrainMcCain]

give these kids a chance??? HELL!!! there are SIX BILLION PEOPLE WHO ARE LOOKING FOR A CHANCE!!! ARE WE SUPPOSED TO CATER TO ALL OF THEM!!!

Chances are made by people who are willing to go out and make themselves AND THEIR OWN NATION better!

"Aliens granted amnesty by the Dream Act will have the legal right to petition for entry of their family members, including their adult brothers and sisters and the parents who illegally brought or sent them to the United States, once they become naturalized U.S. citizens. In less than a decade, this reality could easily double or triple the 2.1 million green cards that will be immediately distributed as a result of the Dream Act."

Violating a country while ignoring the Rule of Law? To arrogantly claim that they will "overcome" & are here to stay implies continued thievery from the Americans. One thing never to do to someone from a capitalist nation is to steal from them as it will piss them off. Their ignorance is matched only by the arrogance of asking to be given a free pass without waiting in line. Their invasion essentially destroys what they have come to steal from the American people. The time bomb is ticking . . .

We should remember that US already has the most liberal immigration policy of any developed country on the planet. We allow a quota of 1 million per year, this exceeds all of western Europe combined. Preference in law is rightly given in compassion to those in the greatest need and suffering the vilest of the human condition.

It would be immoral to allow illegals to usurp those quotas and displace legal immigrants who have been waiting for up to 10 years for their entrance visa.
