There is a LEGAL to come in to the United States and a LEGAL to become a citizen of the US or any other country.
Regardless of how things were done 200 years ago, anyone who wants to enter ANY country should do it the LEGAL way.
My great great grandparents came through Ellis Island and spent all day in line to get the papers to be here legally..and they would be very upset at the way things are handled now.
[quote=”markus”]wspeed1195. How easily we forget, we all came to the USA for similar reasons: political or religious persecution, or looking for better economic conditions. Moreover, we second, third, fourth generations, easily forget all Europeans who first came to the US were at some point illegal alliens. I don’t recall the Native Americans ever handing “green cards” to the pilgrims and those who came thereafter.
We easily forget the waves of illegal Europeans (Irish, Italians, Germans, Polish, etc.) during the 1920’s, 1930’s, etc. To this day, those illegal alliens were a higher burden to the welfare system, than the Mexicans are today. It is easy to find reputable information that confirms the economic benefit of the illegal alliens outweights the cost.
I wonder what your ancestors would think of your comments.[/quote]Ten years ago, I sold a house with seller financing in Texas. About a year ago the owner rented the house out to a group of illegal Mexicans.
Now the buyer has stopped paying and I have to foreclose.
I’ve called the police, immigration in Texas, immigration in Washington DC, the TExas Rangers and NO ONE will do anything about the illegals.
They told me that unless they are committing a crime they just don’t have the resources to deport everyone. I reminded them that they ARE committing a crime by being here illegally.
thousands of Illegal Mexicans are moving to Texas every month to get away from the drug problems in Mexico.
We HAVE to close the borders.
