  • @lostflims - I believe people need to enter this country legally. Legal immigrants are what made this country what it is. However, illegal immigration needs to be cracked down. If you think American immigration legislation is tough, look at Mexican laws there. I believe that the borders need to be shut down, and the 14th amendment needs repeal. Only after those 2 conditions are met, and only after that can we talk ONE-TIME amnesty.

  • @lostflims - If you look at the US Constitution, the provision allowing for Anchor Babies was one originally intended to grant citizenship to freed slaves after the Civil war. I believe it's the 14th amendment, look it up. Anyways, this woman came into our country illegally. My family didn't do that, we all came through Ellis Island the right way. This woman is a 3X trespasser. I believe if you want to stop splitting the families, repeal the 14th amendment and deport the family together.

  • @lostflims - I understand that argument. However, when this country was established, it wasn't those that came before us that established a government as well planned and thought out as the US. We are the reason you're not still living in small villages, warring with each other over resources., and living to a life expectancy of 35. It's the US gov't that made this land what it is; a reflection of it's people. Sad things happened along the way, but more of the story of america is great success.

  • when you have a child than you will know that they deserver a better life than the one you can give them in a poor country. and you guys shouldn't talk because you are an illegal just like the rest of us. no one truly belongs here except the native americans and guess what, my ancestors where here before urs their the aztecs, mayans, incas, etc...

  • If she was truly a mother, instead of a media whore, she would have taken her child with her. This is a bunch of staged BS!!

    Illegal immigrants are still ILLEGAL!!!

  • Shouldn't that read, Supporters of an Illegal alien felon (remember, she stayed for a year against deportation laws,a felony conviction) held a rally?.

    What's the felon up to now adays? Still trying to force the U.S. to let her fellow reconquistas in?
