Immigration is not something we should be concerned about. There are alot of bad things going on with American too. If an immigrant messes up then it is a big deal all over the news. If an american messes up or kills someone it is barley recognized. People need to just get over there selfishness and if the immigrants are stealing their jobs then maybe they need to work a little harder. I am marrying an immigrant next month and his family is awsome. He is the nicest man i ever met. He has respect for what he was givin and his family respects America I have met few americans that feel the same way this family does, Maybe its not immigrants that need to be looked over maybe its Americans!!!

LADY YOUR AN IDIOT!just cause this guys ramming your bohonkus don't mean its o.k. for 20 million more like em to sneak into the united states commiting a crime by entering mind you and the rest of us overlook it!
we have become mexico's welfare office,free birthing center,and place of education all at the tax payers exspense. ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! GOT IT !
many illegals who have come here have no intention of getting a job and working either they are career criminals looking for an opportunity alright!
or career welfare with multiple children and no spouse to provide anything other than sperm!
and lastly no one from any other country has any right to sneak into this country take another man or womans job. this is a hostile invasion and will be treated as such!
I'M WITH YOU 100% YOU SAID IT!!!!

Amber, I agree with you because people are racist all the time, and the people that are doing good are get blamed for the people that are doing bad. So both of yall who disagreed with amber should shut up, because who are yall to judge other people based on their skin color.

I dont think I am an idiot, just very oppinotated and your the one who is spealing off about nothing. If they work better than you then maybe you should step up your gain. And thank you Lisa for your commet because is is so true the good immigrats are being judged for what the bad ones are doing and we are not god we do not judge. So maybe you need to revaluate your self, and find a little heart.

Amber, is your new husband legal or illegal? Illegal aliens look for ways to break the law including welfare fraud and Identity fraud. Legal immigrants benefit America because they took the time to do it the right way and be vetted for their loyalty. Illegal immigrants are just greedy and would rather go around the law then follow it. However, they complain heartily when they are caught in their crimes.

You guys are totally racist!!! No one race is above the law and one should not be given a pass because they are Latino.

The innocents might still be alive if the illegal was still in his/her own country. They blatantly broke our law when they stepped across the border...then they got drunk and drove recklessly endangering the lives of all on the roads. Nobody excuses legal citizens who cause the same heartbreak, but illegals shouldn't have been here period, adding drunk driving to the equation certainly gives their crime a far greater negative impact. Why is it they are let go time after time to cause more of the same mayhem...they are not treated the same as a legal citizen who was DUI?
