Tell me what part of illegal do you not understand? illegals get here and basicly say I’m safe. Now I can get all these bennys for free, medical, food stamps housing and the money they make they send back to mexico with out paying taxes this is very common not just isolated cases. I for one am sick and tired of our politicians not wanting to hurt sombodys feelings, they are just in office to get re-elected.

I have no problem with people wanting to enter this country. Who wouldn’t want to join the greatest country in the world? Do it the right way. Hell I’d give an illeagal amnesty myself (if I were given the power, anyway) if they are at LEAST in the process of becoming a citizen.

Now I know the first comment that will come against my statements: Do you know how hard it is to become an American citizen? Yep, I do. It should be difficult, expensive and time consuming. Why you say? Next time you are “surfing the net” look up what conditions and restrictions you have to go through and abide by to get citizenship in another “Free” country. If you become a US citizen, you can’t become our Nation’s President, that’s about the extent of your restrictions.

Come to the US: thrive,live, persue the American dream, but do so as a citizen, we’d love to have ya.

Illegal immigration is a Nation killer. If you do not believe that it is time to go and study history. In recent times you might study why Yugoslavia broke up into 7 Nations. I’ll give you a hint why.

I always have to laugh when I read these people who have the simplistic attitude that we will solve all of America’s problems by simply loading all “illegals” into cattle cars and deporting them. But just for a moment look at what would happen to America and each of us if we really expelled millions of people. Who would harvest the fruits, vegetables, and nuts, we all go to the store to buy? Who would man the meat factories that send us our chicken and other meat products. Who would wash the dishes in our restaurants; clean the rooms in our hotels; staff the nursing homes where we place our parents; staff the nurseries where we place our children; weed our gardens. These people are such an integral part of our lives that the economic impact would devistate the US economy if we REALLY did what you are all calling for when you say to kick the illigals out of the country. Think about it.

Trust me – Pahrump is a long cry from typical America – more like the “Twilight Zone”

“Mexico has its own way and it’s not working. That’s why you are here. If you must go back, take America with you. Drugs, violence, craziness are all coming from Mexico.”

Naaa, drugs, violence and craziness are all homemade problems with the thriving community of Pahrump. Take some responsibility for your failures…
