Well you say they are illlegal,well it means no right to be there.end of story.unless we humans are becoming more ignorant cant see what the fuss is about. Mexico. I thought the world richest man was a mexican,surprising most people in mexico want to escape to america,so what is rich about mexico.

Is this the progress of humanity for the modern world? Some people in different countries/cultures have worked very hard for sucess. Other people desire the success of those who have worked so hard to achieve success. Whether it is the United States, Russia, England, France, Canada, etc. who have succeeded in establishing an economic base, all will be attacked by others to gain illegal immigration for they want what you have worked for! If allowed the "melting pot" of legal migration for positive growth then becomes a "toilet bowl" of uncontrollable happenings. Just as animals uncontrolled in a civilized setting rather than their natural setting become uncontrollable packs, we see "humans" it is reported acting much the same. It seems in the United States the uncontrollable packs may be the illegal immigrants and on the other side the United States Courts/Prison System, both out of control. Can anyone suggest a country that a person is able to legally migrate to for simple "quiet" everyday living after they able to retire, if they so choose?

Talk about The State Department

having been in ICE holding facilities in Arizona in 2009 for 4 months I know full well the abuses of the system , everything from being denied medical care to being held in county jail facilities as a criminal and not once being able to go outside.surprisingly enough i never had the opportunity too plead my case before deportation, even after having been in the states for 26 yrs . although i thought at first the hopelessness of my situation i now think they actually did me a favor by deporting me, Im very happy to be out of a country that has a broken system

The average US citizen would appear to be either ignorant or too self interested to notice that this is the 'thin end of the wedge'. The USA have learned that, as the worlds only true superpower, they can do almost whatever they want to people of other countries, whether this be to invade thier land, steal thier resources, change their governments, set up prisons on thier soil, take their citizens away without trial, or to torture and humiliate them with impunity. Some may object but non can stop them, let alone punish them. Soon this way of doing things will seem normal to them. However, on the domestic front, and within a generation, practices that undermine centuries of laws protecting the rights of the citizen will be favoured. The 'might is right' mentalitly will be the rule not the exception, and it will be backed up by the full state mechanisms. We already see many legal protection mechanisms and legal barriers (which have always served to ensure the rights of the citizen) disposed of under various titles, usually under the heading of national security, or the war-on-terror. Traditionally, states moving towards totalitarianism have moved against minority groups first (such as immigrants both legal and illegal), before eventually moving against / controlling / restricting more 'mainstream' citizens. When that in the USA, those ignorant and self interested people, and their children, who currently turn a blind eye towards what their own government is doing will discover the true meaning of the term 'you will reap what you sow'.
