- ILLEGAL Aliens are just that, ILLEGAL.
Stop the flood, fine/jail anyone that hires illegals.
Secure the borders against ILLEGALS, and others that would harm us.
I hear on the news just about every day about the "working poor" LEGAL citizens that need help.
Put them to work on the jobs the ILLEGALS have been doing. ILLEGALS steal jobs from LEGAL residents.

- The hate contained in these postings is so Christian. Sadly farmers in Arizona and Southern California still have fruit hanging on trees that should have been harvested 2 months ago. Since the freezing temps in the desert during the last month, it is probable that the west coast fruit profits are what really went south. The drug runners, dope dealers, kiddy porn smugglers are still in business. I understand the frustration with illegal workers hoarding in to towns that were never prepared to deal with them. Our approach should be to make peace with our bordering neighbors and encourage them to deal with their own troubles and assist them if necessary, in fighting the drug cartels. America has lost its way in the ability to lead by example and make allies with other nations. How can we justify another soldier%u2019s death in the Middle East when we are treating our neighbors, just as one religion treats another in the so called Holy Land? Those are humans we%u2019re talking about south of the Rio Grande, most of which are in better tune with God, than the average couch potato gun toting American. 9/11''s causalities to this nation are just beginning to be seen, the terrorist reached their mark by changing who we are as a nation!

Sign me up. It is not just workers coming across...it is criminals, gang members, and other unwanted segments of society. As Clint Eastwood said "worms gotta eat too".

And I''ll gladly sit on the jury for your trial that recommends the death penalty. I know that republicans don''t think so, but these are actual human beings you''re talking about killing. - Reply to this comment

It sounds like the Mayor of Eagle Pass has the support of the locals, so I don''t think he''ll be voted out. What does amnesty have to do with a fence dividing a community that seems to have worked out a good relationship with it''s ''sister city'' in Mexico. You are buying into the B.S. that our economic and security problems are Mexicans faults! Just like in the 30s & 40s, when Hitler tried to convince everyone that the jews were the cause of all of Germany''s problems! Sorry, bill1fj, but you are being duped! - Reply to this comment

- Ten to one, the mayor is in the pockets of business that uses illegal aliens for cheap labor. Look what AZ is doing, going after the companies that employ illegal aliens. The illegal aliens are leaving the state in droves.
