This thread is very interesting. There is so much to touch on. There are many things I agree with as well as disagree with. The topic at hand does deal with immigration as a whole. The topic ended up steming from the mexican boycott. I do agree with what AlphaFrog said concerning turning the topic into a black issue. This also supports other things she brought up in another thread. It's all in how you word things and relate them to the topic at hand.

I do also agree with people fighting for what they believe in. Some laws have been changed due to peoples opinions being voiced on what they feel is right and wrong. African Americans marched in their own country for equal rights. Illegal immigrants come to ours demanding rights when they are not even supposed to be here. There is a huge difference. I totally agree with Rudey's comments, and that does not scare me. He makes some valid points.

I feel that they can strike all they want to. US citizens that want to work and can't find a job would be happy to fill those positions. I'm sure people felt the impact, but trouble don't last always. All these illegal immigrants getting jobs, apartments, and loans, yet some US citizens have the hardest time obtaining those things. Overall, security should be tighter and laws should be followed.
