If Mexico, being the poor country it is, has the sense to secure their borders, WHY AREN'T WE! If we the Americans get caught going on their side illegally, we get up to two years in prison (in THEIR PRISONS MIND YOU, WITH NO SAY SO FROM THE US). Not only does Mexico incarcerate U.S. citizens, but they also go after Guatemalans, El Salvadorans, Hondurans, and others who enter THEIR country illegally!

It doesn't seem to matter to the ignoramuses who want amnesty or open borders:



-How about the one in three, or 29% of our prisons being filled with illegal aliens?

-About 41 percent of Mexican illegals are on welfare, but only 2 percent pick the fruit!

-That 60 percent of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) FUNDS go to illegals!

-that our schools are increasingly being filled with children illiterate in two languages to a point that it dumbs down our education (California for example was fifth in the nation in terms of the efficacy of the public education, NOW, BECAUSE OF THIS ILLEGAL ALIEN INVASION, IT IS NOW 49TH!)

-Or the closing down of our hospitals when these people use our emergency rooms as their primary health care provider or the delivery of one in ten babies that are are born to illegals!

-About 730,000+ Americans that lose their jobs annually as a direct result of this illegal alien invasion due to the fact that it is becoming more and more difficult to compete with the unfair wages from the cheap labor glut! Or be told that you have to learn a foreign language to continue their endeavor of employment!

When the bill comes, it is USSSSSS THE TAXPAYERSSSSSS THAT HAS TO PAY THE BILL!

I personally have been affected by the open borders because I had my home ransacked by the illegal aliens where I lived in Royal City, Washington. Not only that,the unsanitary, third world conditions were a menace. These people had no idea of how to use a toilet and went on the ground. instead of stepping in dog _____________, you stepped in human_____________ (isn't that appealing?)!

Don't get me wrong, I AM NOT AGAINST LEGAL IMMIGRATION, IF and only if IT IS NOT EN MASSE AND IS WITHIN ASSIMILABLE NUMBERS; some of my best friends were Mexicans and they came LEGALLY. what angers me is that a lot of illegals now come here to freeload rather than for freedom AND BRING THEIR ANTI AMERICAN "we owe the U.S. to Mexico" PCBS. They seem to get away with crimes like the breaking of our immigration laws with
