Thread: Waukegan, IL -prime example why reform is needed.... (HELP!!

Chicano, you failed to address this part of my post, why is that? Are you avoiding the basic truth of doing what is right? Why would your parents work so hard to raise you, to have you deny what is fundamentally right, and ignore not only mans laws, but God's command that we do what is right while here on this earth. I EXPECT for my children to grow up to be law abiding citizens. Think about it, if it is wrong to disobey mans laws, and as well disobey God's, then why come to the United States illegally? There is no good excuse, none.

Go ahead, I'm waiting pensively for your answer to what is below!!

What we were taught from day one by my parents was that God expects all of us to abide by the laws, and no matter how hungry or frustrated you might feel at your own situation, you are expected to find a lawful and right way to get what you need or want. This applied even to food. If you were in need that bad, you would talk to people, tell then you will be willing to work for some money to get the food you need.

I feel it is no different when you are sitting across that southern border, it is unlawful, and wrong in God's and mans eyes to cross that border without permission of the U.S. Government, no matter what. Maybe you will have it good for a little bit, but eventually God exacts a price for breaking that law, and others if the person has. I feel that for many illegal aliens, that time has come, in the form of angry and fed-up Americans, who want the right thing done.
Anyone wanting to please God and get the thumbs up from the American public, needs to go back, then apply and wait for lawful approval to be here.

Chicano,

When 20 Million Illegal Immigrants come into the United States and try to dictate US Domestic Immigration Policy to US Citzens by holding mass marches, protest, boycotts with their grandiose sense of intitlement simply based on the premise of their Race, what kind of responses do you think you will get from americans? Lets face facts here, the bottom line is that if they put all that energy into changing their situations in their own countries, we wouldn't have the problems we have today. Take Mexico for example which has been a country long before the United States existed, they have vast natural resourses, plenty of land and with all this, They still can't get their act together!. May i suggest that they go home and try to make their own country better instead of coming here and trying to make a better version of Mexico!

Thank you jean - and I'm going to pass that on.

Recipricity;

YOU rock!

Recipricity, thank you, well said. Not only have we experienced this same sense of entitlement, but our neighbors have shown an outright nastiness towards us, and no onein my family have done anything towards them, other than being Americans.

Thus said, so long as I live, these people will not win my approval, and will not become citizens. I WILL fight to keep them from having any rights here, as they have broken our laws, and repeatedly every day, by staying here illegally, working illegally, potentially using fraudulent documents and driving either unlicensed and uninsured, or both.

We all have to abide by the laws, why should not, and more so, someone wanting to have the privelage to come here and become and American?

What makes illegal aliens think that coming here and becoming a citizen is a right? It is not, it is a privelage, one I personally will not allow MY government to give away to people who think nothing of trying to steal that privelage.

Hey folks,

Did we scare chico off? Haven't heard from him here lately. No response to a bunch of questions?

Hmm......maybe, but I think that he will be back.

Yes Cheyenne, I am so scared that I might get deported if I continue to support them in their rightous cause.

Americanelizabeth, you said I didn't answer to your statement about, to sum it up, God wants us to live by the law. If you want to put some religion in the mixture, let's see what we come up with.

You are correct when you say God wants us to be rightous, law abiding people. The thing you are leaving out is that God wants us to do this so long as the law is moral to His teachings. Remember, man, not God, created the laws of the land. And as you well know, man is not perfect. Just look back at some of the "laws" that people were expected to live by. Remeber the years 1621-1865? Didn't the law say that certain human beings were "property" and therefore they didn't have any rights? Then remember 1865-1964? I am not necessarily comparing the current struggle to the struggle of the civil rights, but am using this as an example of how laws are not always in the standards of "what is right." This is why I criticize when the only arguement people use is "illegal means illegal." If this is the logic you use, then you might want to take this into account then go to a judge and ask for redemption.

Thou shall not bear false witness. You lie every time you say you are in this country legally, every time you write fraudulent information on a piece of paper, every time you do something that is not lawful, every time you use a fake ID or SS card. You are a liar and bearing false witness. Thou shall not steal. If you are committing fraud and benefiting in any way, you are a thief. Lastly, THOU SHALL NOT COVET THY NEIGHBOR'S HOUSE. This land is our land and why would you condone sinful behavior? God does not command you to protect the wicked. God does not tell you to assist the wicked. He sure doesn't call it a "righteous cause" as you do.

Chicano,

Did you ever stop and think that God is punishing the illegal immigrants for their arrogant and blatant wrong doings? I wouldn't stand to close to them dude, unless you are considering death by lightning bolt.

Chicano: SO WHAT? Why do you alway throw up a bunch of rhetoric that has absolutely no bearing on this issue?

Even the bible says - something like: "Grant onto Ceasar the things that are Caesars and to God the things that are Gods".

We, the American citizens, are expected to obey the law of the land - NO MATTER HOW STUPID WE THINK THAT LAW IS, because, if WE'RE caught breaking the law, we go to jail. Why should it be different for someone who breaks the law and comes here illegally?
