Hispanics feel hurt by immigration debate

Most Hispanics say the immigration debate and Congress' failure to overhaul immigration laws has hurt them, and many fear deportation for themselves, a relative or close friend, a poll showed Thursday.

Why is it so hard for ANYONE to understand the term ILLEGAL? I would also say that the wet foot/dry foot policy is just as bad. If you can reach our "unprotected waters" then we'll give you free medical and social secuirty beneftis, but if you have served in the Viet Nam and Iraq wars, too bad for you. I am so sorry that I served this nation for the freedoms of others and not our own. America has let us down. We had to have a Spanish debate? Why? Why not Germans, Itaians, Pols, etc. I'm so out of htis country soon, please give my S Security to another ungrateful Cuban, I don;t need it!

I agree with you 100%. I can't believe that in our own country we are considered 2 to any illegals. This country is so F'ng screwed up! If they want any benefits then bring back all of our American soldiers and send their ungrateful lazy arses over to Iraq to fight for those benefits.

Quote "The poll found 53 percent of Hispanics said they worry about deportation for themselves, a relative or close friend, including 33 percent who said they worry about it a lot." what kind of poll means anything if it is done with the same ones creating the problem, the illegal! If you are illegal and you worry about deportation, guess what YOU SHOULD!!!! And I hope they actually catch you and send you back to your country of origin. Why I'm so distressed, because of the same reason as Stan Gardenski indicated you are a virus that consumes the resources of the ones that are here legally, did our effort to become citizens and pay taxes and social security. I'm Hispanic and I'm not in fear of been deported, why BECAUSE I'M A US CITIZEN, pay taxes and social security, have several college degrees, work and volunteer in my town, have never gotten even a ticket from law enforcement and want to ensure the future of my kids. This is ridiculous writing news in an attempt to bring pity to these illegal immigrants, send each and everyone back not just the Hispanics. I'll vote for the presidential candidate that provides a solution to this problem before we get to ellection and not just a promise.

Do they feel "hurt" enough to go home? The illegals had better take notice. We are going to clean-up this country and start by massive deportations and then sealing the borders. Especially, the border on the South. We don't want you, we don't need you, you are a drain on our society. Stay home and make your country of origin a place where you people would want to remain. Don't come up here and destroy what we, true Americans, have sacrificed for and built. America must stop the illegal invasion of our country before it is destroyed by the alien invaders. Thanks.

So?

If they feel that badly, perhaps they should return to their country of origin and stay there. They can pout for the rest of their lives. Better yet, they should invade some other country and see how they are treated.

Yeah, they're hurt because a majority of Americans have finally awakened to the problems they're creating and it looks like no more freebies for them.

If hispanics come here legally FINE.

If hispanics come her ILLEGALLY, deport them.

There are many who are patiently waiting to come here LEGALLY> They are following the law, procedures and rules.

Get rid of those who have no respect for the laws of this land. Send them home and let them begin the LEGAL process to get into this country.

Aww, to bad.

How do the people feel that got their identities stolen?

How about the business man who wanted to hire LEGAL Americans, but can't compete with cheaper labor?

How about the people who have to pay for healthcare?

How about the kids at school that have overcrowding and can't get a decent education?

How about the families that delt with illegals when it came to robbery, murder, or any other illegal activity.

Hispanics can kiss my azz if they are offended. Don't like it. LEAVE. Other than that, get a job, pay your bills/taxes, and shut the f up!

Illegals are a drain on OUR economy, sending billions out of this country every year. They refuse to speak English and they refuse to obey our laws. ILLEGALS GO HOME !!!!

Enough hispanics. There's too many and it's getting ridiculous. Put a cap on it now and start allowing some other people in. There are good people from England, Norway and other countries that have been trying and yet hispanics seem to be the focus. Enough.

If illegals were truly the same concern to our gov't that they are to some of the population, than why has something not been done sooner?

Yeah, I know. Obeying the law has made my life alot harder too. I feel hurt by people making laws and by law enforcement personnel enforcing them. I wish there wasn't so much talk about the law, and I fear for myself and my other friends who break the law, too.

The government does not ask us if they can take a portion of our payroll checks for taxes to fund illegal aliens.

They do it with intention. Our leader and most of our representatives should be ran out of this country for treason. A new government should begin with patriots not traitors.
