Nice try, your exact words "if your not a citizen you dont deserve a lic." That statement does not differentiate from legal to illegal immigrant or businessmen or diplomats or students. Your statement is quite clear, license should ONLY be given to citizens.

So do you think resident aliens and students on visas shouldn’t get to drive? Resident Aliens pay a larger percentage of income tax than you do, but they shouldn’t get to drive?

Yeah, this is a common misconception often heard by soft-ass people who live in the suburbs and whos only connection or experience with life in the inner city is owning the new Ludacris album. In reality, there are very few 'Americans' who want/need benefits who don’t get them. The people who don’t get them are usually the people who don’t apply for them. I worked in public assistance for 3 years in college. Saw the system first hand. Know what I am talking about. Also, as Valkyrie said, calling someone a wetback (which there’s no river they have to cross to get into California - just a fence) is not only an offensive epithet, but incorrect and just made me loose a lot of respect for you. Forever, in my mind, and probably the minds of many on here, you will be that bigot chick. Way to rep Alpha Phi. You have sisters on here that are Hispanic. Think they are wetbacks?

I can’t believe someone would think that it was right to deny kids an education, and that only certain types of people have the right to better their lots in life. I'm also willing to bet that whoever told you they got better and priority financial aid because they were illegal, was like you, talking out their ass. See, I am not xenophobic, so I wasn’t afraid to make friends with the people of other skin colors that I went to college with who weren’t from the US. I learned that for the non-citizen students, they were ineligible for most of the governmentally backed financial aid.

Yeah, lastly. What language did your ancestors speak? Why don’t you go back there? Something to think about; you are where you are because years ago, somebody allowed immigrants, like your family to come into this country. I'm just wondering if you'd be as adament about this whole immigration thing if the US was having a debate about Canadians illegally coming into the country.

Of course, thats the American way. Use the system then slam the door on those that came in after you.

Personally, if the foreigners are just here to work, and are doing jobs that other Americans wouldn't do, more power to them. I don't have a problem with them working.

I only say that because I see countless people every day on the street with signs that are probably citizens but not doing anything but beg me for my hard earned money. Not to sound mean or insensitive or anything, but isn't there something those people could be doing to help stimulate the economy? Even if it is just picking fruit or something.

Additionally I have to agree w/ lifesaver here and the other folks who think cutiepatootie's post was offensive. Hello? You are saying how much you don't think illegals (or "wetbacks" as you like to call them) deserve an education in America, and your spelling is way off in many instances and you didn't even use the correct form of "your" in your last reply (p.s. it should have been "you're" as in "you are"). If that is the American schooling system at it's finest, the system has surely failed you.

p.s. did I miss something, or could you tell me what an "assist" is... I always thought it was a verb.. (or could it also be used as a noun in basketball?). I never knew it was possible to "rob" an assist...

one last thing.. did you ever see that low-budget flick "A Day Without a Mexican"? You should rent it at Blockbuster some time to see some of the things they do for the economy There are so many AMERICAN CITIZENS who sit on their butts all day and do nothing but pop out kids for more welfare money... at least these illegal immigrants are doing things to help stimulate an economy that isn't even their own.

If speaking English is a requirement for living here...someone's going to be deported soon! Nyah nyah nyah...
Load up a bus - there are a whole lot of people needing a ticket out of GC if speaking English is a requirement

And I am completely about the wetback term. That is beyond disgraceful. Seriously - did you think about that before you typed it?

Mr. AXO works with the most hardworking man who is an illegal from Mexico. He has been in this country for 15 years working to support his dad who is a farmer in Mexico. The man is a great man - he is a very good friend, and he always takes care of his business. They tried to petition on his behalf to get a work Visa, but thanks to more red tape, it wasn't possible without him getting deported back.

Its a very sad life to lead - he knows that he cannot go back and see his father, or his siblings. He knows that he needs the work here to support them, and quite frankly, it makes me mad to see him being treated like crap, when a friend of mine just took 2 years unemployment because she liked hanging out with nothing to do.

1 capitalization mistake
1 misusage of "you're"/"your"
1 capitalization mistake
1 extra space
1 "vs" instead of "v." (aren't you a paralegal?)
1 "thru" instead of "through"
15 billion extra spaces
1 too-long ellipse
1 extra capital letter
1 "fromthe lloks" (are we at IKEA?)

Ladies and gentleman, a fine American education at work.

I think I just died laughing, which is really good because it made me forget how horrified I am at having my letters associated with the post that inspired it.

It amuses me when people don't think about what they are saying.
1] Illegal Immigrants are people who are here illegally, they should not be allowed to stay. They should have to fill out whatever forms& go through whatever bueracratic B.S. to stay here. I do think they should make it a little easier, but that's a different conversation.
2] I totally understand& agree with the reasons why they want to come to America& I'm not saying, keep all immigrants out, but think about it, most of our ancestors did follow the proper channels to migrate here. Think Ellis Island.

Why should we cater to people who should not be here? Does the government grow marijuana for people to smoke it illegally? Do gun manufacturers post ads in prisons?
No, b/c in no other part of society do we cater to people who have broken our laws.

I definitely don't agree with putting water out in the desert to ensure their safe passage, that's so idiotic.

But take these for what they are, my opinions.

-Mark

SO screw anything i say , but it i OK for the number of you who seem to let your opinions be known verbally and loudly on here on every topic from "hi thread count" to "what i wore to work today"....i guess your opinions only count and the rest of us we get blasted for voicing ours! You should stop and read some of your thread omissions and refrain from what you all say soemtimes.

BTW....I dont use the N word for whoever said i am near using it. Some of you WHO DON'T LIVe in SO cal you will never understand

I just dont like my freedoms and my rights pushed aside or ignored because someone who entered this country ILLEGALLY gets them granted to them without a bat of the eye.

Okay, let's address this logically.

The relevance of your opinion has nothing to do with what threads you participate in on GC. It's hard to take someone seriously when she is presenting an argument that includes racial slurs and grammatical mistakes that a seventh grader wouldn't make.

Please give me one example of how your rights have been pushed aside or ignored because of someone who is in the U.S. without the required paperwork.
