Coloma, I understand your frustration. I checked into a hospital in Louisville, Ky and they asked for my SS#, private insurance verification, and I signed a paper saying I would pay any bills. Next to me an illegal checked in using an interpreter. No problem. They just sent him in for treatment. I asked the admitting nurse and she said they cannot asked if he is a citizen...might be offensive, but they had no problem asking me these questions. Also, his bill falls under no-insurance so he does not pay for service. This is real. happens all the time. Americans need to wake up fast!

If you think this does not happen check your local hospitals. You are paying the bills...ask questions.

Actually, good things are actually happening. The States that are taking action to reduce illegal influx are too numerous to link. They are now beginning to understand that so called low cost illegal labor is the most expensive labor in our history and will bankrupt this country. Visit the interior of Mexico. I worked there for 30 years. See if that is how you want the US to look like. The Mexican people need to rebel and standup against their corrupt government and free themselves from this corruption. Now, they are just taking the easy path and trying to live off of the USA without contributing to support the very system here that they abuse. Strong words...but true.

im alright with my tax dollars paying their medical bills, just as I would be if it was you. Alot of you seem to be blaming these illegal immigrants very unfairly. If things are so easy and good for them, why not do what they are doing...in fact I think I might have to, at the moment I make $8.5 an hour so 12 sounds prety darn good.
 
Geeze...I made $15.00 an hour in the early seventies...I don't know how they do it...God Bless these souls.

$15!?!?! Minimum wage sounds good here. The threat of being rounded up alone should be enough to push it down, I would have thought. That figure is surprisingly high to me.
 
Price we pay for freedom Coloma...nobody said it was gonna' be easy. $12 to $15 you say? Is that all? I must be blessed...A man who would work for $12 to $15 for the work an undocumented human does deserves to be here...that is the true spirit of America...work hard and reap the benefits of that hard work. Geeze...I made $15.00 an hour in the early seventies...I don't know how they do it...God Bless these souls.

You are blessed, rotorhd. A jerk, but blessed.

When I worked in Mexico I paid Mexican and USA income tax. Also paid for a Mexican work visa. This was so I could work in Mexico to teach Mexican engineers how to do American jobs. Also, had to pay any hospital bills on the spot or go to Mexican jail. Mexican jail and Mexican hospital are similar for medical care. Well the jails have a little better food.

Then the Mexican government complains about how we treat their poor illegals that come here and freely use our welfare system.

Sometimes nothing works like a good double shot of Tequila.:barf:

Wow, you would that? I just had a double hernia operation. You pay my bills and I will convert. Heck I will eat tacos everyday for a year. Just call me Senor Madmag.:D

Not about if you're alright paying for their medical operations with your money. It's that you're alright paying for their medical operations with other people's money too.
 
I'm all for using our taxes for humanitarian purposes right here in America...I don't see how buying Sigma pistols for Afghan warlords, and Glock 17's for Iraqi terrorist cum police officers serves our nation.
 
Clem, You have convinced me that that people shouldnt butt in line at the post office...not sure how I feel about amusment parks though...
 
You are right...I don't know. Show me a massive rally of Hispanics, Afro-Americans, and Asians protesting against so called "illegals", and I'll eat my hat.

Simple question. Should we enforce our laws?

As for the anchor baby thing, to change that we would have to amend the constitution. Next to impossible. However there isn't anything that would prevent a law allowing for these minor children to be deported with their families, giving the option to return when they reach 18.

If you knew the area of Michigan he's talking about $12-$15 is the average to above average salary. So, the migrant workers are making average to above average wages and getting welfare on top of it. I grew up that area, worked with the migrants, made the same pay they did and watched them buy steak with food stamps while we ate hamburger and bologna.

Thats the problem, you don't mind paying, and they don't pay taxes, so, who pays yours.

Welfare and assistance is not supposed to be "free money" It is supposed to be there for those who truly need it. It's not a personnal bankroll.

We can sit back and let this happen and scratch our asses complaining about "social security, medicare/caid, welfare", With noone to blame but ourselves.

If you think Americans are wrong for thinking like this, do me favor. Pick any country that you'ld like to live in, and go. See how long you last. You won't, they will have you back here quicker than snot. Especially If you defraud them of Taxes.

Let us know about your trip:)

Now here we're in agreement. Arming Americans instead of warlords with those Glock 17's and Sigmas...I like where you're going with that.
 
My sarcastic reply was aimed at commenting upon a thread that contained a fair amount of implicit, explicit racism and a touch of internet commandoism.

I should have stated that explicitly. Now I did.

The reason most of the folks cross the border is to work. As in anything, there are bad apples. Certainly we have 'Americans' of fine lineage who are just as much sewage as these folks have been called in this thread.

The reason they continue to come here is that our fine system exploits their cheap labor. If you want to control immigration it is best done with reasonable policies and not a bunch of commandos with guns. Convince your politicians to act and stop living gun boy fantasies that embarass most gun owners.
 
Just to get back on topic, yes, If I was in the area I would join in the effort. It seems to me a lot of people have the wrong idea as to what these people do and don't do.
 
Yes I would assist in this, not thinking I was truely making a major difference, but for the stand I would be taking.

The Amercian Dream is to work hard and you will be reward, but I believe the underlying assumption was that you also followed the rules.

By coming here illeagally you are breaking the rules, by not paying taxes you are breaking the rules.

There is no free lunch, someone is paying for everything that comes out of the goverment, and if I recall 17 days ago I just wrote a big check to the goverment. I paid my share, have the illegeals paid theirs?
 
UH1-D Rotorhead,
You are right...I don't know. Show me a massive rally of Hispanics, Afro-Americans, and Asians protesting against so called "illegals", and I'll eat my hat.

First and foremost, they’re not “so called” illegals being protested. They are illegals. They’re the overstays, false claims, entering without inspection, etc. Every single one is illegally present in this country.

Now, as to your assertion that this is a race issue, check out the organization, You Don’t Speak For Me. All hispanics, all vehemently oppose illegal immigration and any form of aid to illegal aliens. So why don't you climb back down of your high horse. I get pretty damn sick and tired of being painted as a racist because I feel illegal aliens are destroying our country. I hate having to add this clause right here: Notice I said illegal aliens, not Mexicans, hispanics, or any other race. I should never have to say something like that. This is a nation of laws. Those that make their very first action in this country one of violating those laws have no place here, should not be here, and I will actively petition whomever needs be to see them removed. Period.

You have absolutely zero evidence to suggest that persons opposed to illegal immigration are racist. So take that little idea of yours and put it somewhere impolite.
