2006 (lst Qtr) INS/FBI Statistical Report on Undocumented Immigration
62% of all "undocumented immigrants" in the United States are working for cash and not paying taxes, predominantly illegal aliens, working without a green card.
95% of warrants for murder in Los Angeles are for illegal aliens.
83% of warrants for murder in Phoenix are for illegal aliens.
86% of warrants for murder in Albuquerque are for illegal aliens.
75% of people on the most wanted list in Los Angeles, Phoenix, and Albuquerque are illegal aliens.
More than 380,000 "anchor babies" born in the United States in 2005 were to parents who are illegal aliens; making those 380,000 babies automatically U.S. citizens. 97.2% of all costs incurred from those births were paid by the American taxpayer.
You should consider the world's future. The US is not the world. Goods can be bought and sold all across the world, why shouldn't the people move around and be able to work anywhere they please? And I mean anywhere… Brazil, Spain, Japan. That would create better jobs everywhere.
unfortunatly ther arent any intellectual resources in immigrant workers…thats a fact. Try again.
i have a number of intelligent mexican friends, and i happen to be mexican too. You're just a frustrated racist.
I am a bit confused…if being hard working and industrious were the keys to having a prosperous, peaceful nation, why is Mexico in such terrible condition?
Honestly, one of the biggest misrepresentations is "immigrants do the work that Americans won't do…"
A more accurate statement would be "immigrants do work at wages and conditions that most Americans wouldn't want to do, for the benefit of corporate interests…" Promote decent wages and working conditions and Americans would be happy to do most of the jobs.
We need to rephrase the argument: race and national origin do NOT matter. The issue is the skill and education level of immigrants. Low-skill, high school drop-outs are a net loss for tax payers whether they are from Maine or Mexico, Pittsburgh or Puebla. And unfortunately 60% of the immigrants from Mexico are high school drop-outs.
I highly reccomend that you read up on how ooorly Mexico treats its own Central American immigrants…los que viven en casas de vidrio no deben tirar piedras.
Hey, Americans, the videos below are your future if you don't demand an end to illegal immigration and SHAMnesty.

Sen Barbara Jordans Bi Partisan comission came up with a dozen ways to end illegal immigration way back in 1995.
. None of her ideas were implemented, all tabled, sandbagged and dismissed. The problem is not hard, the hard part is getting leaders to enforce the laws.
go to numbersusa(dot)com to fax your senators for free on immigration.
please help spread the word.
All people that favor mass immigration benefit from it but smear those that speak out against mass immigration.
It is interesting that the party who does not get the majority of the votes from the hispanic population is so concerned about more hispanics entering this country. How big of a problem do these people pose compared to the amount of attention is poured into this topic? Wouldn't our time be better spent on the critical issues facing our nation? These people didn't cause the economic crisis or the health care crisis . Lets get to the core problems and work together to find solutions.
@StLukey7 WE DON'T THEM WE DON'T NEED THEM! There are things more valuable than filthy money, like the demographic content of your country – mainly retaining the northern european makeup of the U.S. that gave our nation its distinct political, legal, and social institutions which create our NATIONAL CULTURE! Deport them all! and Yes Jail the employers who hire them! Furthermore, with a large concrete block wall there would be no illegal immigration problem, it worked for East Germany mornon!
@StLukey7 If current trends continue europeans won't be a majority in this country in fourty years, consequently it's not really your problem because you likely won't be here to suffer from the resulting turmoil b/c your middle aged. In comparison, I'm young, it's my problem. It will potentially be a problem for my chidren. This problem must be fixed, it will involve state and federal law enforcement working concurrently. If you can put a man on the moon, you can remove 12 million illegals.
@jraider2 It's a circular problem, "corporate interests" offer low wages and no benefits because of the availability of illegal immigrant workers. If the illegal immigrants were to be removed, these same "corporate interests" you refer too, would befored through supply and demand to raise wages w/o government legislation. During the earlier half of the 20th century, the US essentially halted legal immigration at one point, and guess what? We had a 2% unemployment rate, the lowest in our history!
@StLukey7 Leaving the country would take all of the fun, out of sweeping all of the human filfth that came here illegally ( and legally) back from whence they came. I stole that quote from a famous speech delivered by Fidel Castro. I don't know who Sen. Pierce is, but he is a hypocrite. I'm not from Arizona, I don't even live in the Western United States. You better start taking us seriously, because your friends are going to have to leave and go home soon. This is not Mexico!
@StLukey7 Well guess what the U.S. Supreme Court just said that employment verification and the "bussiness death penalty" are legal. While the Conneticut Dream Act is a step in the wrong direction, this legislation is another reason to elect Republican candidates in future elections. Futhermore, this legislation is ridiculous during a prolonged period of economic austerity. HB – 12 is still going before the Supreme Court! Pack your bags esse, and don't let the door hit your ass on the way out.
@Jsledge85 Hispanics are Europeans.
@StLukey7 You're not American, your children will never be American. Under the original constitution you wouldn't even have citizenship! So, what if you were the first. We conquered, setteled, and built the U.S. This nation is the product of our hands. You live in this country because we tolerate your presence. While your right about the 14th amendment for now, it in all likelihood want survive a genuine political crisis in this country. We will eventually wake, and when we do you'll be sorry.
@StLukey7 You'll vanquish us? Who is the majority in the U.S.? Who owns the most firearms? Who controls state and federal law enforcement? Who controls the armed forces? Who has access to the state/corporate infastructure needed to produce mass amounts of chemical and biological agents? Who has likely known how to artifically engineer retro-viruses that specifically infect humans with dark pigmentation since the mid-1990s? We have, that's who! We wont need camps this time.
