Republicans Blocking Immigration Reform

[Rikurzhen]

Today's immigrants are assimilating - including the adoption of English - just as those who came before them did.

 

[Unkotare]

Hispanic immigrants are assimilating just as quickly as earlier groups - The Washington Post

What the hell are you talking about, fool? Where do you see any "bleeding heart," "traitors," or opposition to the rule of law? Are you having another argument with yourself?

 

[ScienceRocks]

We have to stop all immigration and start removing them...Or we're fucked.

 

[Luddly Neddite]

Repubs agreed to the bill that's been sitting on boehner's desk for more than a year now.

No, we don't want to stop all immigration. Why cut off our own noses just to suit the ignorant right?

 

[pismoe]

you are correct Matthew !!

 

[Katzndogz]

Keep open borders until we lose a major city. Chicago seems to be on the block. We don't need it anyway.

Pissy little cowards obsess over their own fears instead of seeing reality for what it is.

No they are NOT assimilating. If they were, we wouldn't see all the Spanish signs being put up everywhere, Spanish radio stations, Spanish television. The city where I live has few English speakers, for 80% -- half born here, Spanish is the primary language.

We can be more selective with immigrants. We don't need the least capable. If they won't learn English before applying for a visa, they don't want to come that much.

Yes, they ARE assimilating. It's not recent immigrants putting up those signs and operating those media outlets. Think about it a little more.

They even advertise WIC and Food Stamps to them in Spanish. That isn't assimilation at all. No, they aren't assimilating but they shouldn't be here in the first place. Preference should be given to those immigrants who properly prepared themselves.

I have neighbors who have lived here over 20 years who cannot speak English.

Who does? Who makes those advertisements? Who decides to put them in Spanish? Come on, there's more beyond the end of your nose to look at.

 

[Unkotare]

That's like saying "preference" should be given to polite bank robbers. You are confusing legal and illegal immigration.

 

[Rotagilla]

republibots...wake up. Republicans want them here for the cheap labor. There is no allegiance to this country from any of them.

Not true at all.
the left are the ones wanting all these illegals in the country. They are the one's after cheap labor and undercutting fair wages...

EDIT:
that and the fact they can skew the vote with more democratic minority voters..whose very first act was to violate american law by illegally crossing the border.
but the end justifies the means in their minds

 

[RKMBrown]

We don't need immigration reform, we need to enforce laws currently on the books and secure the border. We don';t need to be the dumping ground for the worlds poor and needy. We have our own problems, we don't need to import them.

We will never secure the border. NEVER! Get that idea out of your head.

What we need is to make sure the ones that come here work for a living and pay their taxes, instead of coming here to be welfare recipients like Obama's Auntie. Rubio's plan to register them under work visas and ban them from collecting welfare was the way to go.

= The Coward's Credo.




Whatever the hell you are, you're not an American.

Really...why do you say that?

America has always been comprised of "people unlike themselves." America is a nation founded upon and sustained by principle, not blood or birth or pandering to base cowards like you. If you not only cannot understand America, but are opposed to its fundamental nature due to your own fear and ignorance, then you cannot be considered truly an American in the most important sense.

LMAO. Well thnx for the history lesson.
lol...I think you got some blood in your eyes and ears from that destructive bleeding heart of yours there uncle terrie.
I understand what you do not and calling me names only makes you look desperate.
This country has sent its manufacturing base overseas and south. There wasn't enough jobs to go around for US citizens 30 years ago. So...lets let in 20 or maybe 30 million more people that will do nothing but drive down wages, lessen working conditions, drive down benefits, break unions, increase working hours and turn the country into third world conditions in large area's and what thanks do we get? They won't even speak the language that other legal immigrants used to WANT to speak and that is a slap to the face of everyone. It doesn't matter if you care about the language or not, the same disrespect is there even though YOU don't care. Im not to concerned about the 3rd world change though it is happening, Im more concerned about jobs. Not to mention how much money they cost the country.
I care about what is good for our country as a whole. fear...coward? You make me laugh uncle terrie

When it comes to evasion and name calling he's the champ.

 

[Unkotare]

Well thnx for the history lesson.

You're welcome, but you need a lot more.

 

[BillyP]

Start by out-lawing Spanish and other bean dialects.

BillyPussy is nothing but an idiotic troll.
