    I have an idea - let's let them come over here and pick our fruit and harvest our crops and tend our landscapes and roof our houses and clean our houses. For a very low price.

    Mmmmm. Smells like freedom.

    Smells more like capitalism to me, but I am sure that is a point many would rather not bring up.

    We are sending the illegals back to MEXICO & they are coming back, LET'S SEND the ILLEGAL to GITMO {Guantanamo Bay, CUBA} They won't be coming back, unless they can escape & swim back to the GOOD OLD USA

    Yup, lets send millions of civilians to a relatively tiny military prison to be held indeffinately, because they have not committed any real crime, and apparently sending them back to their own country is a bad idea.

    Aside from the illegalities of all of that, do you realize how much it would cost to relocate and incarcerate one person for one year? Thanks but no thanks, I would rather put them on welfare. (a service that not even a majority uses)

    Mr. Ortega:

    the "question" has been answered repeatedly:

    militarize the damn border temporarily for the safety of US citizens THEN fix the root of the problem...

    Two illegal behaviors - that are driven by the NEED of US citizens, must be remedied.

    Either extreme criminal consequences for illegal drugs being imported AND the act of employing illegal non-citizens

    OR

    legalize the drugs AND put in place a working system of tempory VISAs for migrant workers.

    Anything else is just scratching the scab off a cancer. We're dealing with addicts... folks addicted to drugs and businesses addicted to cheap labor. As long as addicts feel the NEED then enterprising folks with guns will work to fill the profit.

    All that is necessary for evil to prevail is for good men to do nothing. Get out and vote, write your reps. And assemble so we are heard.

    Agreed about Fox firing us up for the symptom instead of the cause. We were happy to spend time and money in Columbia when we had something to gain, but don't lift a finger in Mexico

    Uh oh....:popcorn:

    Hint: example, if a woman is raped, you don't go looking for a woman do you. That would be stupid. Looking for a man might be an example of ...... profiling. HEAVEN forbid!!!

    :rolleyes: Are you going to tell a police officer every time you see an illegal immigrant?

    :rolleyes: Are you going to tell a police officer every time you see an illegal immigrant?

    How would I know if someone is an illegal alien? My point is if we are concerned about illegals coming across the Mexican border, we shouldn't go looking for blond haired, blue eyed Aryan types should we? Common sense and political correctness don't mix very well.

    In todays thinking, if in 1942 there were several defense companies burning and a division of the Wehmacht was marching around the area we would not be able to detain them. That would not be politically correct. How DARE we assume it was them just because we are at war with them, and they have red armbands with swastika's on their left arms?:rolleyes: The NERVE of some racist bigots! Someone get the ACLU on the line.......:D

    It's called common sense, which we seem to ignore anymore.

    How do you find out if someone is an illegal?

    You cant.. Thats primarily what the AZ law is about is allowing the LEO's to ask IF they are stopped for a separate reason, not related to Immigration status...

    As to the Idea about migrants and picking vegatables etc etc, it is a matter of economic impact. They get paid, money flows back to Mexico, they get sick, or their kids need to be educated etc, then it comes out of the US taxpayers pockets. (hopefully that means yours) The net paying into the system is SIGNIFICANTLY less than the amount being taken out.

    Look at it this way, with secured borders, the GUBBERMENT could subsidize all those supposedly menial labor jobs to where other true immigrants or Americans would do the job. AND, save money overall in the process.

    1) To say Americans wont do the jobs is stupid, because they will if it pays more than the unemployment benefits in the alternative, or if Americans are there geographically to take the job.
    2) much of this is paid in cash, and therefore does nothing to the Tax base.
    3) The border COULD be secured if those in Washington wanted it to be
    20 ft up, 20 ft down and watch tower every 100 yards.
