I don't know... I grew up in a small town in washington state. When I was 16, two mexicans hit our car, gave my little brother a concusion at the time, and got out of their van and ran. I'm freaking out because I just got my license and was totally freaking, a guy in his 30's was nice and was like hey I saw the whole thing, stop crying it wasn't your fault you won't get in trouble.
The two guys were tracked down...they ran because they were illegal.
Over a hundred times I've felt threatened when I was living at home due to walking down the street and having mexicans come up to me and puting thier hand on my arm and trying to get me to go with them or yelling out their car at me etc. Yeah, when I was like 12.
I am not racist however, Eddy, a guy a year ahead of me was the star of the soccer team and we were friends...reading my sisters journal one day i saw something that made me totally break down. "I thought it would be ok to take a ride in his car because he is sarah's friend..."
Eddy turns out was illegal as well... (how the hell do the schools not find out?!?!?) He was convicted of rape. He was 17 at the time, she was 13. His lawyer advised him to admitt the truth while he was still 17. Luckily, they charged him as an adult.
Someone said watch our economy go down... I agree that would happen. I think part of the problem is Americans are lazy as hell, they sit back and live off welfare while immigrants run around and do the work cheaper.
People complain...stop sending work over seas... many don't complain about immigrants doing the sh*tty jobs.
In reality, the United States is far from perfect. Every empire falls...and unless we start cleaning the U.S. it will fall in the near future. Illegal Immigrants...yes, I think they should be kicked out. However, I think if someone wants to come in from let's say Mexico and get better opportunities for them and their family, they should have to learn some english and have backround checks and get a green card.
This is all opinion, I hope I don't offend anyone.
