Thread: A New Hampshire Student Reflects On Immigration

"The label alien also comes with the connotation of an invader, determined to come against the natives’ wishes and harm the existing society. "

That is exactly what they are!

" What some of us seem to overlook is that immigrants didn’t come here hoping to steal our jobs, they didn’t come here to “live off of the system.” No immigrant came to the United States legally or illegally hoping to harm the country."

But you are wrong, that is why they come here, to steal jobs and to "live off the system". They do harm the country by stealing jobs and goverment benifits. They are nothing but thieves and invaders. The politicians need to wake up to this fact and start repeling the invaders.

I've seen a figure of 500,000 enter the U.S. each year. At that rate, illegal immigration amounts to 50 divisions in military terms. Don't know about the rest of you, but I consider 50 divisions to be an outright invasion.

The point about a name being so significant is true. Would this author please explain the connotations of "La Raza".

By the way, while we're considering offensive names, I DO understand many of the spanish terms directed toward citizens by our "guests." They are definitely offensive.

Once again, trying to make the illegals look like innocent victoms. How about the thousands of citizens they have killed? How about the billions of dollars they cost us in free education for their children, welfare, healthcare, prison care etc.? What about the stolen identities and fraudulant paperwork they use? As for stolen jobs, they know full well that they are taking jobs away from citizens. They are here because they broke the law and are indeed illegal. I find it offensive that they are so arrogant and disrespectful of our laws.

To the majority of the people in the United States, these immigrants have become our scapegoats, whether it be for healthcare costs or housing, job availability or nationwide economic recession.

Illegals don't deserve to be called immigrants first off. They are illegal aliens. They have affected healthcare costs because uninsured illegals who use emergency rooms for care, effect other people financially in several ways.

This moron Julie needs to be spend time near emergency rooms and she needs to talk to ER staffs. I know a woman who works at an ER here in New Mexico and she has seen illegals abuse ER's and use them as general practice clinics. Illegals will go to the ER for stuff like colds, minor stomach ailments and other minor things that don't require urgent care.
