The restrictions I WANT IMPOSED ? WTF are you babbling about ? The laws on the books are the laws on the books ..... I don't want any particular laws changed .... the present law being enforced will work just fine for me...

I'm talking about your eagerness to close the borders, Blabo, now that you're safely ensconced here.

Do your corporate masters know that you want them jailed and/or fined for exploiting illegals so you can reap the benefits?

and my ancestors did come to this country LEGALLY....and have worked, defended, and died for it.....we've earned our right to want to preserve what we've built for our next generations....

You died for America, Blabo?Just, wow.

And the question was....could your ancestors have gotten in with the current restrictions? Moron.



Sounds like you might've been a anchor baby, Blabo.


So as long as you got yours, those words inscribed on the Statue of Liberty are expired, so fuck today's immigrants.

No worries dude, you owe me nothing. I put him on IA just so I don't have to read his crap. But I can still see it when someone else quotes him. Your comment 'what the hell are you babbling about' made me laugh out loud.

You didn't say that...learn to write

I'll repeat the question for Blabo, the retarded descendant of immigrant ancestors...who apparently doesn't understand the English language he wants to require today's immigrants to learn.

Could your ancestors have entered the United States under the restrictions that you Teabaggers want imposed?

Yes, or no?

The article was too long to post in full so I c&p'd some of the main points under each number.

1. Immigrants take jobs from American workers.

Although immigrants account for 12.5 percent of the U.S. population, they make up about 15 percent of the workforce. They are overrepresented among workers largely because the rest of our population is aging: Immigrants and their children have accounted for 58 percent of U.S. population growth since 1980...
...immigrants tend to be concentrated in high- and low-skilled occupations that complement -- rather than compete with -- jobs held by native workers....

2. Immigration is at an all-time high, and most new immigrants came illegally.

The historic high came more than a century ago, in 1890, when immigrants made up 14.8 percent of our population. Today, about two-thirds of immigrants are here legally, either as naturalized citizens or as lawful permanent residents, more commonly known as "green card" holders. And of the approximately 10.8 million immigrants who are in the country illegally, about 40 percent arrived legally but overstayed their visas...

3. Today's immigrants are not integrating into American life like past waves did.

The integration of immigrants remains a hallmark of America's vitality as a society and a source of admiration abroad, as it has been throughout our history. Although some people complain that today's immigrants are not integrating into U.S. society as quickly as previous newcomers did, the same charge was leveled at virtually every past wave of immigrants, including the large numbers of Germans, Irish and Italians who arrived in the 19th and early 20th centuries....

4. Cracking down on illegal border crossings will make us safer.

...Since Sept. 11, 2001, we have dramatically strengthened our borders through the use of biometrics at ports of entry, secure cargo-shipment systems, intelligence gathering, integrated databases and increased international cooperation. The Border Patrol has nearly doubled in size in the past five years, to more than 20,000 agents...

...The seasoned enforcement officials I have spoken with all contend that if we provided enough visas to meet the economy's demand for workers, border agents would be freed to focus on protecting the nation from truly dangerous individuals and activities, such as drug-trafficking, smuggling and cartel violence...

5. Immigration reform cannot happen in an election year.

The politics of immigration can be explosive and can chase lawmakers away, especially as elections near, with the result that Congress infrequently and reluctantly updates immigration laws. However, all the significant immigration bills enacted in recent decades were passed in election years, often at the last minute and after fractious debates...

Do they try to disprove that illegal immigration is ILLEGAL!!

Bravo, just my opinion but I don't think its liberal numbers holding up immigration reform. My guess is they would gladly pass reform in a heartbeat if they could give all those here now illegally amnesty. It's getting Republicans and Democrats to agree what kind of reform is best which is the holdup.

They why wasn't one passed, the last time they granted amnesty?
 
The George Wallace state does it again...

Alabama vaulted past Arizona on Thursday with what is being called the most restrictive law in the nation against immigration, requiring schools to find out if students are in the country lawfully and making it a crime to knowingly give an immigrant a ride.




Republican Gov. Robert Bentley signed the legislation into law Thursday.






Advocacy groups promised to challenge the sweeping measure, which like Arizona's law also allows police to arrest anyone suspected of being an illegal immigrant if the person is stopped for some other reason.




The Alabama law, combined with legislation passed in May by neighboring Georgia, has arguably made this swath of the South the nation's hottest immigration battleground.

It's very relevant, Blabo.

Could your ancestors have entered the USA legally under the restrictions you want imposed?

Yes, or no?

yes actually.....they came in through Ellis Island in the late 1890s and obtained all the legal documentation required by this country at the time....as far as I'm aware, that's all we've been asking for now.....that those who enter this country do so by obtaining all the legal documentation required.....

You are attempting to use logic, with an idiot who doesn't think he's right; he KNOWS he's right.
 
:lol:

Bring out an old story because Alabama just passed one of the most strictest laws against illegals. Wish my state of California would do that, instead the fuckwad liberals just voted to educate the fuckers for free, never mind the fact that we are around 15 billion in the hole already.

I have no clue what 'teabaggers' want....and I don't 'require' anyone to learn the English language.....thats their business....

But they shouldn't drive, or vote or graduate from our schools if they can't pass the requirements either....
 
Yeah....thing are lookin better and better.......


(AP) Arizona's sweeping new immigration law doesn't even take effect until next month, but lawmakers in nearly 20 other states are already clamoring to follow in its footsteps.

Gubernatorial candidates in Florida and Minnesota are singing the law's praises, as are some lawmakers in other states far from the Mexico border such as Idaho and Nebraska. But states also are watching legal challenges to the new law, and whether boycotts over it will harm Arizona's economy.

Could your ancestors have met those requirements, Blabo?

God Almighty, you're as moronic as Blabo.


The question isn't whether your ancestors entered the USA legally in the 19th century (and I only have your word for it that they did...), the question is - could they legally enter the USA today under the Teabagger laws promoted by xenophobes on the right?

I can see how you'd think that, Blabo.

The new Alabama law:

requires public schools to determine students' immigration status...

makes it a crime to knowingly give an illegal immigrant a ride, so all citizens of the Dixie Reich will have to interrogate anyone they drive in their vehicle or face arrest...

Some did, some didn't.....most learned English well enough to read signs and pass a drivers test and vote...

Work wasn't optional, school was a luxury they couldn't afford......my parents actually made it to 6th and 8th grade....

Punks like you, don't have a clue to the real world and hard work ..... your world is flat screen tv, Ipods, and cellphones....and you still manage to be a
