Mary Mazzio & Oscar Vazquez - Mary Mazzio & Oscar Vazquez - The Colbert Report - Video Clip | Comedy Central

Whether you like the Colbert Report or not doesn't matter. The only purpose of this thread is just to show people that not every illegal immigrant is a terrible person out to do nothing but just steal tax-payer dollars.

The video hardly reaches 6 minutes, you won't kill yourself watching it, and if it helps, Colbert hardly makes any witty remarks.

The story of these Hispanics is quite incredible, and as the show will point out, they were illegal.

I've seen too many threads painting every single illegal immigrant as a gang-member or murderer or thief, the reality is, some of these people have A LOT to offer to the U.S. This is exactly where my dad came from, starting out as illegal and rising to become a huge support for the U.S, these people really do love the U.S.

I'll be the first to admit that there are some bad illegal immigrants out there, but you have to realize at some point, that some of these people aren't just out to hurt the U.S in any way.

EDIT

The point of this thread isn't to change people's minds on immigration, it is PURELY to show people that not all illegals are bad.
 
Not all illegals are bad but they are still illegal.

I understand that, but despite clown boy saying that it's hilariously easy to get in the U.S these Hispanics were denied even after they won the challenge for the underground robot and beat schools like MIT.

It wasn't until a state official after luckily hearing about them and reviewing their case did he give them a green card to enter the U.S.

They may be illegal because it simply is hard to enter the U.S. However, they aren't bad, but conservatives paint them all as bad and that's how conservatives brainwash themselves in order to just say "DEPORT! NEVER CHANGE IMMIGRATION" without even giving them a chance.

That's why they're "still illegal"

A piece of **** pro-illegal propaganda story.The liberal media in my city did boo hoo poor illegals and poor scumbags who used to hire illegals stories after my state passed anti-illegal immigration laws.

It's not about boo-hood poor illegals. This simply is for teaching people that illegals are nowhere near as bad as conservatives say they are.

This isn't propaganda either, it's a story of these people, take it how you want.

If you piss and **** all over my nation's sovereignty by coming here illegal residing in this country illegally the last thing I want is for you to get any legal status. I could care less if you were allegedly brought here as a small child and still chose to stay here as an adult.

We naturalize around half to three quarters of a million people a year and allow at least a million people a year to have green card status.So obviously it isn't that hard to get in legally.

It is a pro-illegal propaganda meant to change peoples minds about illegal immigration.

Then why was it hard for these two who were simply lucky that a state official heard them out?
 
Meant to inform people about the immigrants themselves, not illegal immigration.

The op isn't about immigrants its about illegals. Pro-illegals tend to lump these two groups of people together.

They probably figured that a piece of **** traitor like that elected official would give them some sort of legal status. Apparently it worked.

Alright bit boy, let's try calming down. This piece of **** traitor gave these men green cards, one then went on to serve in Iraq. This traitor gave America a good soldier who was dutiful and loyal only to America. Not to mention, this piece of **** traitor gave the U.S minds so brilliant that in high school they defeated MIT in an engineering contest.

Who knows, maybe he wasn't a traitor, his action certainly gave America a great boost rather than harm it.

They are bad because they broke the law. That's all that matters. They are illegal. Why can't liberals get that through their heads?

You do not reward illegal immigration Rewarding illegal immigration only encourages more illegal immigration not less illegal immigration.

No one on the "anti-illegal immigration" side actually thinks that. We just recognize that illegals have broken the law and that strong borders and sound LEGAL immigration policies are intrinsically tied to a nation's sovereignty.

This sort of tacit propaganda has only one goal: evoke an emotional response. It's a strategy designed to make one feel sorry for illegal immigrants as well as elicit a feeling of guilt, thereby siding with illegal immigrants and undermining our nation's sovereignty.
 
this is just a puff piece designed to put a human face on a terrible problem

and all conservatives, or pubs dont say illegals are "bad"

they say they are illegal

some of them are criminals...some arent
some are gang members....some arent
some are hard working individuals...some arent
some may even think they love america

but they cant, can they? if they did, they would be the first in line to follow it's rules.
they would want to set examples for their relatives and children

this country was built on immigration....and ever since 1870 or so, that has been a controlled system

we want immigrants....from every corner of the earth....in every color, shape, size, and religion
we just want them to come here legally....and sign the register upon entry

All of them are criminals, by definition. They have violated our immigration laws. That's a criminal.
