Immigration

I find it amuzing myself when people like you say silly things about immigration. As if 12 million mexicans are walking across the desert every year.... You havent the first clue on immigration or its root causes other than the HYPE you hear from your favorite TALKING HEADS.

Heres a little FYI for you to digest.

First, lets deal with facts. According to the latest HOMELAND SECURITY DEPARTMENT:

41% of all illegal aliens come to america on tourists visas and overstay the visa and become illegal. This means they simply get off planes and buses, pick up their luggage and go to their new homes.
19% of all illegal aliens come to america on student visas and overstay the visa and become illegal, just ask Michele Malkins parents.
15% of all illegal aliens come to america on GUEST WORKER VISAS and overstay the visa and become illegal.

That represents 75% of the illegal immigration problem. Leaving 25% for the remainder of illegal aliens, but wait, you have to divide that 25% by the northern canada border (9%), then the east coast (7%) leaving 9% for california, arizona, new mexico and texas combined. Then , you have to divide that 9% by 4 leaving a whopping 2.25% for each state respectively.

All this nonsense about arizona and they only represent 2.25% of illegal crossings each year.

But wait, how did thousands of mexicans get into arizona then if its only 2.25% each year???

That easy, just ask ANY REPUBLICAN IN THE SENATE, especially JOHN McCAIN or Mitch McConnell.. Its called THE GUEST WORKER VISA. ARIZONA is its own problem, it issues close to a million guest worker visas each year and those workers NEVER LEAVE THE STATE and return to MEXICO.

Jan Brewer only has JAN BREWER to blame for it. Its the REPUBLICANS who keep calling for MORE GUEST WORKER VISAS TO BE ISSUED knowing FULL WELL those workers will NEVER GO HOME.

The excuses you just made are just that, EXCUSES in the form of TALKING POINTS. Why not try FACTS for a change?

Why not truly understand that even if you built DUAL 100 foot walls with electricity running at the top, attack dogs in between, the marines on our side of the walls, you would NOT MAKE A DENT in ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION??

YOU would only be affecting 2.25% of the problem and spent TRILLIONS on security, while 75% of the illegal aliens fly overhead in an airplane shouting down as they fly over "meda esto pendejos en la tierra"

This is the real immigration problem. VISAS. We have no logical mechanism to address the overstayed visa or MICHELE MALKIN wouldnt be a citizen today.

Get serious bro.

Peace.

Being hispanic, I would have no trouble on the border. I speak the language and dont feel threatened at all. Maybe if I was rednecked, I would have to worry, but fortunately, my people came from this land long before any of you.

Re: Immigration and Reasonable People

Typical uber ultra left wing garbage. Can anyone find me that smiley that throws up!!:)

It is amazing how an uber left wing zealot can sit there and tell someone they don't know what they are talking about. I have lived 59 years in a border state. Most of that time was spent with in 100 miles of the Mexican border. I don't need some uber left wing zealot to tell me about immigration statistics.

I have actually experienced the landscape of my communities change due to illegal immigration. Zealots on the right or the left get in the way of the rest of the country from dealing with important issues that moderate thinkers on the right and the left need to deal with. The reason we can't make progress in dealing with issues is because of these factions. They talk louder than the other 80%.

An uber left wing zealot would have you believe that all Republicans are bigots, racists, religious fanatics, haters, and the cause of all of Americas problems... I could go on and on. These zealots have hate and contempt for those people who do not share their views. They are the same people who talk of "Peace".

Fortunately, a reasonable person with liberal or conservative views knows how these zealots think and act and realize that if things are going to get done, reasonable people will need to come together to fix the issues that affect America. A reasonable person also knows that if we are going to make America a better place we will have to discount the thought process of zealots and work within the framework of the other 80% of the American ingenuity that brings diverse solutions to fruition.

Let there be no mistake. Diversity provides strength.

My frustration is this: We need strong, powerful, dynamic leaders who realize that the strength in America is bringing diverse thinking, ideas and compromise to solutions that will stand the test of time. Kind of like our Founders did when they came up with the Constitution.


What "we" need is for guys like you to be educated and learn to formulate your own thoughts based on the facts on the ground vs. some ideological nonsense told to you by a political party. I presented to you the facts of immigration and all you counter with is name calling? Uber this, uber that, thats the best you can come up with?

You may live in a border state, but that doesnt mean you have insight on how your state became infiltrated with illegal aliens. Simply seeing them on your streets doesnt make you an expert. You seem to pride yourself on repeating the talking points of a political party that occupys your thoughts because they know how to strike a cord with people like you. It isnt that tough. Hatred is the easiest feeling to motivate.

How about you educate yourself instead of demonstrating your lack of education? How about some links to inform you?

HB 2757 - The Guest Worker Program for the Republican Party | Facebook

"""Republicans can fill the void left by Democrat leaders, who seek unlimited
immigration with no rules and no restrictions — in other words, open borders.
What might Republican immigration reform legislation look like? Consider the
following:


  • The U.S. Congress, to resolve the immigration crisis, could pass a new guest
    worker program improving on the 1942 Emergency Farm Labor Importation Program,
    known as the Bracero program. This informal agreement between the United States
    and Mexico created a legal guest worker program that permitted Mexicans to do
    agricultural work in the United States as part of the war effort. The agreement
    was finalized as law in 1951 and terminated in 1964.
  • A new guest worker program could provide foreign nationals with work visas
    and biometric identification cards, allowing them to enter and reenter the
    United States legally to work in agriculture, hospitality, and other areas
    needing workers. Employers would file a need-based application for workers, and
    guest worker visas would be based on the unavailability of U.S. citizens to fill
    positions. Employers would pay minimum wage, maintain insurance for that type of
    work, pay worker compensation premiums, and deduct taxes from guest worker
    salaries. Guest workers would have the same work-place complaint remedies as
    citizen workers.
  • Guest workers would be admitted for a defined period of months for
    agricultural and unskilled jobs and for a defined period of years for
    skilled/specialty work. Guest
    worker visa renewals would be streamlined. Criminal activity by a guest
    worker would result in deportation and would prohibit future application to the
    program.
  • The U.S. State Department and the Department of Homeland Security (DHS)
    could manage the entry and exit paperwork for guest workers to ensure that these
    foreign nationals returned to their homelands as required.
  • Guest workers would be required to pass a health screen before entering the
    country, as do legal immigrants. Guest workers who remain in the United States
    for a number of years would be required to have an annual health check.

    Can Fill Void With New Guest Worker Program
WHile you complain about liberals this and liberals that, your OWN PARTY is trying to issue more guest worker visas and not only for our agriculture jobs. Technology jobs are being threatened by the GOP. You better learn to understand WHO is threatening your state and INVITING the ALIENS into your state and why your streets are filled with them.

Since 2000, the GOP has allowed over 12 million undocumented workers into this country and they never left. Now, in 2012, the GOP believes that there is a JOB VOID and feel that GUEST WORKER VISAS are the answer to fill those voids.

Arlen Specters view of guest workers in the USA
workingimmigrants.com: Sen. Specter Guest Worker bill to expand foreign worker programs for professionals


Now, I can post literally hundreds of stories of GOP members attempting to flood our country with guest workers who OVERSTAY the visas and become illegal, but I would hope this peek into reality opens your eyes to the real problem of immigration.

Once a guest worker enters this country, according to todays laws, he is on his own to go home, if he doesnt, nothing happens. That person then works, saves money, and uses the coyotes to bring his family across the desert, or if he saves enough, applies for tourist visas for his family and they simply FLY INTO LAX.

You can stand at the border and shake your fist all you want, but you wont stop the 92% of the remaining illegals coming into this country.

Peace.

The owner of the Phoenix Suns basketball team,




Robert Sarver, came out strongly opposing AZ's new immigration laws.

Arizona 's Governor, Jan Brewer,


released the following statement in response to Sarver's criticism of the new law:
"What if the owners of the Suns discovered that hordes of people were sneaking into games without paying? What if they had a good idea who the gate-crashers are but the ushers and security personnel were not allowed to ask these folks to produce their ticket stubs, thus non-paying attendees couldn't be ejected.
Furthermore, what if Suns' ownership was expected to provide those who sneaked in with complimentary eats and drink? And what if, on those days when a gate-crasher became ill or injured, the Suns had to provide free medical care and shelter?"

You are right, republican administrations have been responsible for guest worker programs. On the other side, it has been democrat administrations that allowed, due to lack of deportation of over stayed visas, increase the number of illegals here. Now they aren't even deporting the illegals that are committing further crimes.

The current estimates by the governments numbers on how many illegals are present at way light of the actual numbers because they don't even check many them for legal status. There are lots of ways to manipulate the numbers.
I like the way the part of HB 2757 reads, I would have to read further on it before encouraging my reps to vote for it though.

They know he is here illegally and that he should not even have a license.
