Why should the majority of illegal immigrants?
In 1845, Thomas L. Nichols a doctor, dietician, Social historian, and journalist argued that prejudices against immigrants are unfounded; he criticizes movements in the United States to restrict immigration:
“The right of a person to emigrate from one country to another is one which belongs to him by his own constitution and by every principle of justice. It is one which no law can alter, and no authorities destroy, life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness are set down, in our Declaration of Independence, as among the self evident, unalienable rights of a person.” (Williams 18)

Some of these answers show how little you people know about illegal immigrants. You want them to go back and come legally? how many illegal immigrants here entered legally and overstayed their legal visas? thousands. Besides, if they come back legally, how does that guatantee they will conform to all the laws? your legal status does not change you as a person. I know many, maaaaaaany illegal immigrants who are better model citizens than americans. They work, pay taxes and do not live off the system as so many US citizens who are too lazy to work do (just for the record, illegal immigrants cannot get benefits, you need a SSN for that). Having worked in an immigration law firm, there were soooooo many clients who became legalized, started businesses, very prosperous ones and went to give jobs to more people, including US citizens. Look at US universities, most students in medical and engineering professions come from abroad and leave once they get their degree, the US is inadvertently getting rid of talented brainpower because there is no incentive for them to stay. I think this problem will solve itself, at least for those who can get legal jobs elsewhere.How can I bring my friend from INDIA to USA ?
Stay in your own country until you are granted permission for Full citizenship
I hadn't heard about this, had you?
The US should legalize the killing of illegal immigrants. The US has already legalized the killing of murderers, so there is a pre-existing basis for killing people who break the laws.
Why is the estimate of illegals in the USA always 12 million?
The illegal criminal aliens should stay exactly that. They all need to be deported and then to apply legally for entrance into this country. They should not be rewarded for their criminal activity in any way, shape, or form.
When you hire a home worker, do you check their papers?
Illegal immigrants should be arrested when and where they are found. The should be sent by the cheapest and most convenient means back to their own nation. If the wish to enter this nation legally, they should cross at the border, through the regular legal immigration channels. Those that continually cross illegally hould be jailed for a set time before deportation. Any company, industry or person who knowingly employs an illegal immigrant should be fined, and the funds gathjered from those fines used to deport or incarcerate the illegals.
Does anyone care that the flood of illegal aliens is crippling our country from within?
I think a large majority of us are not against immigration. We are against ILLEGAL immigration. Why on earth should someone be able to come here illegally, not pay taxes, and tax advantage of free services?
I live in a town with a huge influx of illegal immigrants. They don't have valid DLs, they don't carry vehicle insurance (they are involved in a LOT of hit and runs), they work jobs where they get paid cash so they don't pay taxes, they flood our hospitals and clinics and don't pay the bills, they take advantage of free lunch in the schools and WIC services, and too many of them cannot even speak the language to properly communicate. This burns me up. I work, pay my taxes, do what I am supposed to do as a citizen of this country, and these people are eating up resources designed to assist legal residents.
If people want to come to the US, there is a proper way to do it. If you can't do it the right way, don't do it at all. I don't believe in giving amnesty to those who came here illegally. Go back home. Submit your paperwork and come here the proper way. If immigrants would follow that simple rule, they would find they were welcome to this great country.
They should all be deported as soon as possible. We don't want them for any reason. They have no rights in this country as citizens, and we will ship them back humanely, if possible.

Really, you say no suspected terrorists have been caught crossing the Mexican border. Watch this video. Your information is seriously outdated.
Doesn't defense of a nation begin with the defense of her borders?
They should NOT remain illegal. They should go back from the place of origin and then re-enter through the legal means.
What the U.S. needs to do right now:
1. Vigorously defend our borders.
2. Arrest and deport illegals.
3. Enforce our immigration laws.
4. Fine and punish non compliant employers.
5. Cut off access of US taxpayer funded social services to all illegals.
6. Review existing immigration laws.
You've broken it down to our only 2 choices with the optional 3rd of taking the law into our own hands. You forgot the 4th choice of all illegal entrants self deporting immediately and apologizing on their way out for all of the trouble they've caused in every aspect of our lives. I choose #4. Since we know there is a lack of morality that helps us to know #4 will never happen, I can assure you that nobody will be waiting 15+ years to see the end of this illegal influx.
McCain went on the O'Reilly Factor and said he WOULD secure the border: You buy it?
You said the a person has the right to immigrate by his own constitution. However he does not have the right to force the legal citizens to pay his way and his families way. When he enters a new county, he is not above their law.
Most prejudices that I see are not on immigrants but on ILLEGAL immigrants who think they don't have to follow the law and who think it is alright to mooch off the system.
There is nothing wrong with coming to this country the legal way and contributing back into the system. To do it illegally is criminal
Is there a number or website I can go to, to report illegal immigrants?
