  • Illegal aliens can't vote, Cal.

    They dont check ID's here in NC when you pull in for motor voter or same day registration, show up register and vote.

    Oh' Snap!!!! Look what I stole? ..... an election.

  • T, can you back up that stat?

  • When i voted in 2008, a poll worker told me how it worked. he witnessed it first hand. He also mentioned how bus loads of folks would show up to vote. then you would have folks driving around and allowing the handicap(as in not sure how to say it to be nice but Retarded) to vote. My barber asked one who he voted for and he stated, my mother. It's almost as bad as those old Chicago elections when the dead would vote.

  • Of course, there's nothing wrong with busing in people to vote. Both sides do it all the time, particularly with the elderly and yes, the handicapped, who have a tougher time getting to the polls.

    The question is whether you want to stick with the claim you made, and I'm guessing you don't.

    And you shouldn't. It's simply not true.

  • Regardless if the figure of murders is accurate or not, I'm sure even Heck can agree that Illegals cause a lot of crimewherever they live. They are not all peaceful grape pickers. The urinate on the street and drink while waiting for a job. They harass women who walk by. They drive without licenses and cause accidents and flee the area. They have no official identity so they can relocate with little or no notice to another state. Even up here in NE Ohio they are growing like cockroaches. Time to call the exterminator.

  • You've got issues, man.

    Here's a crazy idea: Let's not pull things out of our ass. I don't have to wonder whether or not T's figures are correct. I know they're not correct. They're not even close to being correct. Anyone who took 3 seconds to think what he was alleging would know he's not correct. But he'll never admit he's lost. Because, you know, he's lost.

    As for your point, of course they're not all perfect would-be citizens who just want to work. You can't take 13 million of any group and not have people who would do bad things. But a vast majority of them are people who just want to work. And the reason many of you don't see that is because you believe made up shit about how vicious and murderous they are.

    Seriously, if illegals committed 15 acts of murder on American citizens every day, that would be a bigger problem than terrorism. But they don't. That's just something Captain Crazy got off an internet site run by other crazy people. So you need to rethink your opinion.

    What we do know is that illegals commit crimes at a lower rate than regular American citizens do. That's a fact. So if you're trying to convince me that illegal aliens are somehow a more dangerous and violent group because they commit less crime than American citizens do, you should stop and think for a second. You just don't have the statistics to back up what you're saying. You have to make up how dangerous they are in order to make them more dangerous, so you can fit it with your notion of how dangerous they are.

    And let's get real: if you want to see men cat call and harass women, just go to construction site or a football game or a bar in Jersey. It's hardly something unique to illegal aliens.

    And do me a favor: after likening them to cockroaches that need to be exterminated, let's get to the part where you say you're not a racist. I love having them both in the same thread.

    Heck do you know what the actual figures are?

  • Well they certainly aren't 48k, and they're not 24k as cal mentioned. If it's a sixth as many as that, then our air force starts operation ground n pound.

  • All illegal aliens are criminals. Let's cut out that bullshit right now. They broke our laws when they crossed the border. So 100% of illegals commit crimes and are criminals. Kind of hard to say they commit crimes at a lower rate than Americans, unless you are trying to say that 100% of all Americans have committed more than one federal crime.

    Aside from the crime they committed by entering the country illegally, who cares about your allegations that they commit crimes at a lower rate than US citizens. It's still a crime being committed that would not have been if they had not been here. Aside from that, they also commit a crime every time they work in our country. So it's really kind of hard to believe that they commit fewer crimes, unless they don't work. If not, why the hell are they here?

    You're saying it's not warranted? I really don't think you're the best judge of this. You wouldn't know racism if it bit you on the ass.

    Again, apply the public test. This guy likens illegal immigrants to cockroaches and says it's time to bring in the exterminator.

    It'd be the most racist and embarrassing public statement in years. He'd never hold a public job again.

    It's okay in here, though. Let the dehumanization continue. Throw in some "jokes" about shooting them with 50 caliber machine guns while you're at it. You're all wonderful Christian people.

    Oh, and I love where you create the "heads, I win/tails you lose" situations, where you can't even point out clear examples of racism, because that would be just like someone who points out racism. Or something. But you guys on the right were doing just fine with the other one, where you back policies that blow a hole in the budget, and then when someone points out that those policies blew a hole in the budget you say, "Stop blaming Bush! Quit looking backwards!"

    It's a fun game to play. Completely dishonest and juvenile, but I'm glad you're enjoying it.

    It's not hard to say they commit crimes at a lower rate than Americans do. It's a fact. They keep records. They've studied it. And it's true. You can even hear that fact repeated on Fox News.

    If you want to say they're all criminals because they broke the law getting here and working here, fine with me. They have broken the law. But we weren't talking about that. We're talking about violent crimes, and property crimes, the type alleged in this ludicrous thread.

    And they commit fewer of those crimes than the general population.

    Now, you seem to want them all out of the country. I don't, and prefer that we establish a more sensible guest worker policy that includes a path to citizenship, along with an increase in H1B visas. Because immigrant labor benefits us more than it costs us.

    All the studies show that too.

    But we need to create a system that works a whole lot better than chasing people around the border, deporting some, not others; where we benefit from their labor, but also treat them like second class citizens who need to watch their backs.

    And I don't think sensible policy ideas come from people who are governed and motivated by enmity more than anything else.

  • Oh, pulleeze, Heck.

    Do or do you not know the CORRECT figures, then?

    Do you understand, that the hideous crimes by ILLEGALS does not compare

    with your dumb comparison to all crimes by legit citizens?

    Do you know that raping and cutting up women is not the same

    as stealing a pair of shoes at Walmart?

    You want them here? This is because... they will have the right to vote?

    Of course they can't vote... UNTIL they get AMNESTY under your corrupt Obamao regime.

    "Bring em in, let us take in ALL of the hardcore criminal element from Mexico, so they don't

    have to build asylums and prisons for them."

    Pitiful. Really locked in political mercenary cult member pitiful.

    I know all illegals are not bad people - I have come across more than one very nice and hard working illegals - they would love to become citizens but, for one reason or another, cannot at this time.

    What worries me the most, however, is 'blanket' amnesty - the type built into the failed Comprehensive program developed by Kennedy and McCain. That called for decision making on individuals within 24 hours. Absolutely crazy and dangerous.

    There are multiple studies done on immigration and crime rates by a bunch of different organizations, plus the government does some. It's difficult to come to conclusions some times because the data is tough to assemble. People aren't part of the system, so they're harder to track. But you can look at incarceration rates. You can look at crime statistics. None of it supports the idea that illegal aliens commit crimes at a higher rate than American citizens do.

    There was one study by an anti-immigration group that put the figure at 2,158 murders a year. That's not murders of American citizens. That's total murders committed. But it's entirely flawed. All the guy did was look at the murder rates in the home countries, then apply it to how many of those people were here. So it's a laughable statistic. And even that is about half of the statistic T would have you believe. And he wants you to think it's not just more than double this bullshit figure, but that it's more than double this just for murders against American citizens.

    Always beware of someone who will point you to how much illegal immigration costs the country, or states and cities, but who never acknowledge the benefits.

    There are costs. There are benefits. When they add them all up, illegal immigration is a net benefit to the economy/taxpayers.

    But you never hear that.

    Now, that doesn't mean we shouldn't create a more sensible immigration system. The one we have is a mess. But we should probably know what we're talking about first, and try to discount the large portion of these gripes that stem from nativism more than anything.

  • >>Now, that doesn't mean we shouldn't create a more sensible immigration system. The one we have is a mess. ..........>>

    Agreed.

    In the meantime we need to attack the demand and the supply. If demand were to decrease, so would the supply.

    The Republicans like the demand side - cheap labor - and the Dems like the supply side - potential votes and an increase in programs.

    US citizens get squeezed in the meantime.
