IQ2US marks the launch of Oxford-style debating -- one motion, one moderator, three advocates for the motion, three against -- in New York City. Each evening begins at 6:00P with a complimentary cocktail period. As you enter the theater before the debate starts at 6:45P, you cast your vote for or against the evening's motion. Those results are displayed midway through the debate as each side makes its statements. After all six panelists speak, the audience has a chance to ask the speakers questions and vote again. The debate finishes with brief summations from the panelists, the votes are tallied and a winning side is declared.

Why would this Mexican decide to be a mere stereotype by defending illegals?

Ever notice illegals don't respect this country, UNLESS they're trying to milk sympathy so they're not deported?

@MyTotalRemedy Amnesty is wrong? What's wrong is FUCKING up the countries we're seeing massive influxes from. What kind of crybaby reactionary response is that

@TheModelification

So Allen West was making excuses for Ronald Reagan's amnesty plan, in other words? I'm freaking disappointed. Amnesty is AMNESTY and it's wrong.

What kind of conservative makes excuses for it to rationalize it? What kind of hack?

Why I never hear anyone saying that a solution to the immigration problem is also to end with corruption in Mexico.? I feel sad when I see Morones being nice with Mexican corrupt politicians (hang around with them and accept all their awards), and attacking US politicians. That does not make sense, we need to work on both countries, It is a binational problem, not a US problem. When real democracy comes to Mexico, people will not have to go to look for better opportunities to the US.

C SPAN "Black Republican Forum" Session 2 (begin at 11:30) Allen West stated part of Amnesty of 1986 was to secure our borders and enforcement our laws, but haven't happened. (We're still talking about new amnesty like DREAM Act.) We can't allow local cities to make sanctuary cities policies, because they will bring our inner city turf wars to epic proportions by bringing in the drug cartel and Columbian gangs. (Mexican Gangs don't recognize US borders established Treaty of Guadalupe)

In November 2010, the unemployment rate was 9.8% with 15.1 million unemployed. (15.1 million/9.8%) = 154 million are able to work in the workforce. 11,941,812 (or 11.9 million) skilled jobs provided to illegal immigrants. GOOGLE “illegal immigration counters”, the 15.1 million unemployed could take the 11.9 million available jobs. The unemployment rate could be reduced to 2.1% {{15.1-11.9)/154}

Nah your theism and your ethics aren't necessarily entwined, fool :). I can appreciate your emotion on the subject, as it is very important to protect life and it's sanctity, but life is dynamic and ever changing. Beasts kill (eat) their offspring when necessary, and we humans are hardly different, but for completely different reasons -- our own lack of foresight and self control. Or maybe it's not any different, you decide.

Ah Ha!! So you practice moral relativism

YOU BELIEVE KILLING A CHILD IS OK! YOURE DANGEROUS. THANK GOD IN HEAVEN YOU NON OBJECTIVISTS ARENT CALLING THE SHOTS

ALL THE ATHEISTS GROUPS ARE FOR THE ANTI IMMIGRANT SIDE..THE CATHOLIC CHURCH, THE LARGEST PROTESTANT CHURCH, THE LARGEST HUMANITARIAN GROUP THE AMERICAN JEWISH ALLIANCE, ETC ETC ETC ARE ON OUR SIDE! THANKS FOR CLARIFIYING YOU ATHEIST!

LOU DOBBS IS AN ATHEIST, HE BELIEVES KILLING INFANTS IS OK! ATHEISTS BELEIVE THERE IS NO RIGHT OR WRONG!

First off, fuck the church, it doesn't rule my life.

This "law" is the product of broken laws and therefore, no, I will not respect it. At that point, anarchy has set in and we no longer have a country that speaks for it's founding people.

Further, unlike other anti-immigration that claim to be colorblind, i understand that we are engaged in racial conflict - you want your race to dominate, I want mine to dominate (within my own nation). Let's be honest about that and proceed from there.

[mrluke13]

yes the law is going to change but you didnt answer the question when it does will you honor and respect the law ...that is my point over and over you people say no i will not...then shut up hypocrites...

quit blaming one man for the problems of immigration...Bush is not the only one favoring immigrants with out docs...the church is the economic forces of america are and the majority of americans are...get over it. If americans vote majority on this you need to respect that or get out here!!!
