who are the real criminals and parasites?

Revolution--

"Demanding to be treated as human beings"
Yesterday, protesters took to the streets over the United States to protest HR 4437 which could make it a felony, punishable by criminal prosecution to be or help an undocumented immigrant.
part of the confusion has been the differentiating between ILLEGAL & LEGAL immigrant.
"The unprecedented upsurge of protest for immigrant rights sweeping across the U.S. is a great and tremendous thing! From New York to L.A., from Chicago to Houston, millions of people in cities throughout the country have taken to the streets, demanding justice and basic rights.
These immigrants face the daily terror of living as “illegals,” subject to being suddenly snatched away, locked up, and deported across the border, or being targeted by vicious anti-immigrant vigilantes. But instead of being paralyzed by fear and driven deeper into the shadows, people are raising their heads, asking why things are the way they are and what can be done about them—and they are taking action! "
you broke the law! How many times do we have to say that you broke the law. As with anybody immigrant or not who broke the law, should be in fear of being caught and punished for their crime. This is a society of laws and that is the way it is supposed to work. When we stop enforcing our laws or are selective on how we enforce our laws, that we become a nation of anarchy
" The basic demands of the people are clear, just, and reasonable—and they must be met. These include:
· No discrimination against immigrants legal immigrant's
· No to the Minutemen and other anti-immigrant vigilantes you need no police?
· Stop and reverse the militarization of the border take down defenses e.g. unlock the front door
· Full rights and access to decent education, health care, and other social services I didn't realize it was a right
· No deportations
· No round-ups
· No detention centers/concentration camps
· No criminalization of those giving aid to immigrants "

how can you demand anything? You want us to respect you for breaking our laws?
Just think for a minute what you are asking us to do!
Would you feel the same way for somebody that burglarized your home?
The burglar might make the argument that he supports the economy and has a family to feed. So should we deny him the opportunity and not call him a criminal because he broke into your house?
Should he not be in fear of being caught by the police because he broke the law. Should we turn our back on him?
So, what is a difference between an illegal immigrant and a burglar? They're both criminals. They both broke the law.
" Various demonstrations are being planned for the coming weeks that in the main express these demands. People should come out to these demonstrations, and the demands listed above should be brought to these protests, supported, and fought for. People especially need to come to the support of the youth who have been defiantly walking out of school in their tens of thousands. It's b.s. for anyone to preach to these youth to “stay in school”—when they are contributing, and learning, and teaching others so much by fighting for what is right. "

The point that the demonstration was trying to make I believe was to demonstrate how much that we "need" the illegal immigrant, however, I think the message that was actually sent is by their sheer numbers alone was a demonstration of the seriousness of the invasion to our country.
If... there are no other methods of legally entering this country, then I can sympathize with their position. But that is not the case. Although not a perfect system, there are at least a half-dozen methods of legally entering this country.
There is no excuse.
And I hate to sound coldhearted... but you chose to be here. Unlike the Africans who were drugged here against their will, you came here by your own accord knowing the consequences of geting caught.
But instead of trying to improve your own country and situation, you bring your country here.
Yesterday's demonstration proves that you can organize... now, why don't you use that strength to make your own country better. Take home with you what is good about this country and apply that to your country.

We had a revolution in the United States. Instead of running, take back your country Mexico and make it the People's Mexico.
If that means getting rid of Fox, then do it! Get rid of the corruption in your own country and the reason that you felt you had to leave. Focus the revolution in your own home because you're not getting mine.

Their list of demands are what we call rights - afforded to all LEGAL citizens of this country. If you wan the same rights - then become a citizen. How hard is that to understand?!

Laura, Anonymous 224 has trouble understanding anything that makes sense. He doesn't think that there is a difference between legal and illegal. Too bad he doesn't try to rob a bank. I'll bet that he would find out the difference very quickly.

Also, Laura, He would probably call it an "undocumented withdrawal".

...driving with an "undocumented" driver's license.

actually when you think about it... why should we follow the law?

You have people like Senator Starr stating that "they are here and they're not going away" [referring to the illegal aliens in schools] well, criminals are not going away either.

Crossing our borders into this country is a misdemeanor and locally the DA's office announced its hundred crimes that it will not prosecute and the police no longer respond to home burglar alarms.

we refused to take public safety seriously, however, will bend the rules and spend millions of dollars to put in a high-speed (choke) bus system.

So why should we follow the laws?

the message that is being sent is that if it does not make big business & the government money, it is not important.
