and you are going against 230 years of American tradition AND established Constitutional law.

We need to deal with the issue. NOT deal with the innocent children of the issue.

Ferd,
You are putting the illegal aliens into the same frame of mind as the early immigrants. They are not made from the same cloth. If they were I wouldn't have a problem.

Well, as a Texas women I don't like being whistled at and undressed with their eyes. It's just creepy. I'm scared of them, for the most part.

Speaking of what we want....

what we want is people who work hard and build something. I know a lot of mexican people who live here in Dallas. they are all very hard working people who are really trying to build something to leave their kids.


it is true that many dont know english and many fly the flag of their home nation and many would rather live there than here. it is also true that many 4th gen Irish fly the irish flag. I dont see anyone being upset about that.

Well, as a Texas man with a Texas wife and three Texas Sisters I concur!

I also know for a fact that this is not an "Mexican illegal alien" issue.

It was for a Rancher's daughter - all of her life.

So, bottom line - that is my issue.


It has nothing to do with politics.

PO, if you had held out for another hour, I would have left work and gone home and probably not looked at this until monday! LOL!

If I am not safe - then yes! Undocumented workers can do whatever they want and get away with it. No one knows who they are and they know it.

I hate that!!!!

I don't want their kids here when they bring them here illegally. No sir! I am not bigger than that.
