Thank you Salvador Reza for standing up for the rights of human beings (Americans or not).

The racist comments below (referring to Hispanics as "cockroaches") say a lot.

@mabiel3 Amnesty will never pass again in this country, we seen what happened the first time we allowed it, the people of this country do not want it and the Gov. cannot pass it without the people's support, our Gov. is of the people by the people

[DaveSquibbSr]

the civil rights where designed for Americans not for foreign criminals

Undocumented immigrants is not just Mexicans, that is the whole issue here and I don't feel it is just that this is just concentrated on one particulare ethnic origin. I am Mexican American of 4 generations, which starts when the United States conquered the Southwest from Mexico, but my roots go back further in this country and Mexicans will always be here, whether legal or undocumented, they have always worked in this country because our culture and language is quite prevelent .

@dmgg711 That all you got, wow I can find anytjhing on the internet and some of it is true but not all, do some more resarch and come back with a better argument.

Illegal immigration is tearing this country down not making it better we need to get a handle on it now and stop the insanity.

[dmgg711]

@glendaweil I sure don't hear of any flack concerning the 'white' illegals who come into this country. where's the rhetoric toward the Canadian, British, French etc. who are here illegally and have had children who are American citizens. Many of those who came through Ellis Island and other ports of entry never became citizens but their children where natural born citizens. Look it up on the internet of these immigrants who didn't bother with the legalization of citizenship. Your ancestors?

@DaNortSide

This isn't really unusal here in the United States. How many times have we read of people, American citizens, ignoring someone who has just gotten hit by a car and il lying on the side of the road: a young woman being raped in public; a man stabbed and lying in a pool of blood dying after he saved a woman from being mugged, and nobody calls for help.

No, the illegals have a reason to be afraid of the police but the American citizens do not. What's the excuse there?
