Seen the statics for crime in Oregon from the meth users?? they arent illegal.

Here in my area, looking at my local newspaper, illegals are NOT committing the crime.

They all live 10-15 to one house working dead end, grunt jobs that no one else will take.
I live in PHX, AZ. As has been stated, you being from Oregon probably experience less of this than the people in the border states. I'm being fair. Illegals have overrun our AZ borders and no, they don't commit all the crimes, but they commit well over 3/4 of the violent crimes here.

I don't know about Oregon, but I know here, Americans can't even get the job because it's being handled under the table. It's not a cop out. It'd be one thing if the jobs were available and Americans wouldn't take it. But when Employers are breaking the law by paying less than the minimum wage, they're not hiring Americans.

That's exactly what the ILLEGALs are doing. They want AMNESTY - they want to be legal, but they don't want to pay anything for it. They don't want to do anything for it. They're just EXPECTING the President and Congress to give it to them carte blanche.

but an illegal can come in, pick our crops, clean our hotel rooms,cook our food, clean up after us, build our houses, mow our lawns - and we blame them for all the crime?
And the ILLEGAL gets:
FREE HEALTHCARE
FREE EDUCATION
FREE GOVERNMENT SOCIAL SERVICES
TAX-FREE INCOME

. . . all on the US taxpayers dime.
