[quote=TMCTLT]No Victor we don't put our safety in the hands of " someone else " who CANNOT prevent an attack on innocents...but only write up a report AFTER the attack. That's why most Americans would like to KEEP the Right To Bear!!!!
I say most because you left and right coasters want someone else to protect you.....:-"

.... why would you assume that I want someone else to protect me? Why would you assume that I even think I need protecting? Why would you even think I have a problem with the right to bear arms? You really make a lot of assumptions in this very short sentence....

And as far as your and TW's assessment that there are those of us who don't want Mexicans here because we're racist, that is a load of Crap. Not only are the numbers out there to support the DRAIN they're putting on social services / healthcare / education you'd have to be ignorant in not recognizing that as the flow continued the system broke down. And to layer the problem, the main reason they are coming here undocumented is because they Do Not Want Anyone to know they're here, lord forbid that have to pay taxes, have LE know they're here and where they live etc. while those of us born here are given SS numbers as soon as we slide from the womb so as not to escape Paying Taxes.
If you want to accuse someone of using them as political " Pawns " then look @ our elected officials....and further look @ the business sector whose getting rich from the backs of Cheap Labor.

First, I didn't say everyone, I said there are racist elements in it... I don't claim to know anyone's personal motivations until such time as they make it clear through specific words/actions. As for Social Security Numbers... you do realize that illegal immigrants do use social security numbers for some work, right? I mean, unless the job is cash only (and that's really just migrant labor or restaurant labor) you usually have a SSN for payroll. They use a fraudulent SSN and pay social security taxes on their income.... I'm sure there is a problem, but it's clear by the fact you're leaving out factors that you don't understand the magnitude... you're just angry about it.

So if 3.5 percent of our population born and raised here legally....we're to suddenly begin breaking the law, we should just turn our head or close or eyes and hope it simply goes away like a bad dream??? Unreal outlook....see when you come here illegally, your ALREADY breaking OUR LAWS.
I say we show them the same respect we are shown if entering THEIR country illegally....but then you and TW's panties would REALLY be in a WAD[/quote]
I'm sure more than 3.5% of our population breaks the law daily. I'm sure more than 75% of our population breaks the law at least every other day. You just don't think they're important, because you've decided that the laws they break aren't important. Why do you feel that some laws are so important they have to be enforced immediately by walls and armed private citizens willing to shoot on sight, but others arent?
