And, yes, there is probably a fear of change. The US is becoming more and more like Little Mexico. I enjoy visiting the place, but I don't want to live there. And, of course, as this and Globalization continues, there will be more and more pressure to drop our standard of living down to their level.
I have no doubt it is fear of change! Why would our border with Canada be completely unprotected, and our border with Mexico need to be walled, fenced and guarded. People want that border protected with the same intensity we are sending troops to Afghanistan.
Why is that so hard to understand?
Bigots hate the fact that most of them cross the border for nothing more than an opportunity.
If any of the bigots were born in a similar situation, they would do EXACTLY THE SAME THING. That is, if they had any courage.
The bigots need to move to Souther Mexico or Guatamala and attempt to eek out a living with no education.
I think their perception would change very quickly.
The United States can't support Illegal Immigration because it takes too much of a toll on our social programs.
Either immigrate legally or face the consequences. It really is THAT SIMPLE.
Pakistan, Russia, China, and Cuba are not our enemies!
I know lots of people who have been to Russia and China, they said the people were very nice.
I hardly doubt the people of Cuba would be belligerent. It sounds like YOU need to travel more, your bias is showing through, you should not believe what Fox News says about these countries! I think people in Utah are pretty ignorant of other countries and cultures. People in general are usually pretty tolerant of other cultures all around the globe. What's with this attitude that the USA is better than every other country? And what's up with labeling these countries you listed as enemies?
Anonymous | 7:28 - "bias shows your ignorance"
Sounds like the.... | 8:52 a.m - "can't argue with airheads"
And these same people can't understand why Colin Powell, (a Republican) cautions about America becoming tired of nasty and losing every election.
I didn't see him put any qualifier on any race wanting citizenship. I think his solution is fantastic! Green carding will allow us to be able to document EVERYONE in the country. This will better allow us to track the criminal activity that everyone thinks every immigrant is perpetrating. This will allow them to become productive members of society.
"Christ would smile if we erased the lines on our maps."
???
It is fanatic statements like yours that give religion a bad name.
"I hate intolerant people" lol
