Immigration Debate - Bowling Green, KY

Illegals are bringing this country down, they get more benefits then our own citizens and cost the taxpayers and budget shortages. Get them back to their own country

These people come here to work and take care of their families back home and I think if they can proove they have been here atleast 3yrs w/no violations of the law ,They should be granted work permits and given a social security # and pay taxes like everyone else.And after 10 yrs w/no violations of the law they could file for ctizenship.There are alot of good Hispanic people here where I live and they r working hard on cleaning up or making it look better on the West End of Town.They R gret people....and there r some here that r worthless and violationg the lawand they should be Deported.

give the good ones a chance.give em a permit to work and pay Taxes

no way. round em up and send em back.if thier anchor baby dont want to go with them then let them stay with a legal relative.

Illegal Immigrants have cost the American taxpayers more that most of the wars we have fought. We have spent billions of dollars on the education of their children alone. Some even wanted to change our national language and our National Anthem for them. Never in the history of our nation have we done this for anyone who has entered the U.S. legally, let alone illegally. They have practically bankrupted our Medicaid Program. The only ones who have really profited from the Illegals is the slumlords, liquor industry, the slave masters who hire them and work them for nothing, and Mexico to which much of their money goes. If we are so patriotically weak as to do all this for people who jump across our borders illegally, why don't we just give the whole country to Mexico and be done with it??????????

no

Most of the illegals I know are only here to pillage and plunder and to make as many Ameri-Mex babies as the can. Some of them seem like decent people, but the larger percent make even the few good ones look bad. I think the main point we need to consider is that they had a choice to enter our country legally or illegally and they chose to enter illegally. That alone speaks volumes about their character and their intent.

It just uses the federal law on a state level.

Illegal immigrants are a drain on our country. From crimes to welfare to medical bills. To the estimated billion dallors they send to Mexico a year that is needed to stay in America.

I have READ the bill or law and it provides a common sense solution for state and local police to provide added security to AZ citizens.

now i think people need to investigate the tax issue i am married to a hispanic and he is not legal but we pay taxes every year he has a TIN number from the social security office for tax purposes AND we have two children we cannot claim the EIC credit because he dont have a social security number but they tax his money earned like all the other illegal people in the state of ky if they work taxes are taken out of their pay and they dont get any of it back and another thing people want to complain of them being here if it wasnt for them most farmers would not get their crops harvested because the lazy american people are to damn lazy to get off their asses and work in the hot sun in the fields from daylight till dark yea and i know theres gonna be some racial comments on here about being married to one but he supports his family with NO handouts from the government this state needs to focus on the free loaders that have kids to draw checks and food stamps on so they dont have to work i believe if they are here and have not been in trouble leave them alone theres good and bad in all races no one race is better than the other and god said thou shalt not judge and i would guarantee half the people griping about them go to church on sunday morning and PRETEND to be holy!

Someone, somewhere has to stand up to illegal immigration. I pray more states follow suite.

no periods?
What did your husband pay last year in property taxes? How much did the sate, and federal Gov withhold from your dear "Hubby" last year?
Oh yea babe,...if "hubby" don't need hand outs, why do you even care about not being able to claim the EIC credit? HUMMMMM?
I did not know "most" of the farmers use hispanics to harvist crops.
Stands to reason however, they must cost less than a tractor!!Why use a combine to harvist 200 acers in 1 day when you can PAY 25 mexicans to harvest 200 acers in 35 days in the hot son?
Have you been to church youself?

LMFAO!!!!! r u serious they need to send them packin back to where they came from

you should pack up and go to mexico with him and the kids. he not LEGAL thats the problem.

because they not need to be in the country let us go there and see how fast they ship us back.

If the U.S. immigration laws were the same as Mexico's, would that be fair to everyone?

I have to agree with you Sam!!!!

I'm married to my husband that just so happened to be from El Salvador he's here with a TPS {temporary protected status}. He works everyday and pays taxes just like the rest of us. But just like the rest of them he came here illegal. After being here for a couple of months he was able to apply for his I 94 card which is a temparory work visa that he has to apply for every 18 months. It's not cheap it runs him about $380.00 to renew it. You people automatically look at a hispanic person and assume that they are here illegally when in some cases there not and if they are so be it let the feds deal with it. Who are we to judge.

In your case you admitted he's here illegal. Get over it. The Feds are not doing enough.
