This has got to be the most racist thing said in this thread yet. And ignorant ta boot. You do know that there are illegals in the US that are white right? Race has nothing to do with the illegal alien debate.
We're glad to know you think reality is funny.
Maybe she thinks its funny because pro-illegals are always accusing people of racism and bigotry, but yet the only racism and bigotry usually comes from pro-illegals. The way pro-illegals talk only Hispanics are illegals, all Americans of Hispanic decent support illegal immigration and they try to lump in all immigrants with illegals by simply calling illegals "immigrants".

I honestly don't care if you think anchor babies devalue US citizenship. I know of several people who were born here and families who have lived in this country for centuries that devalue it more. If devaluing citizenship is the issue, then there is several other steps we need to take like mandating memorization and utilization of rights. They do not represent a nail in the coffin just by being an anchor baby. No, they can represent a nail in the coffin later but they don't at that time.
In fact anchor babies are a bright hope for this country. New blood when the old is stubborn, selfish, and narcissistic. It is clear that Americans are killing America, not anchor babies.
Yes, I would send the parents home and let the kids stay. The parent can either get in line to be a citizen too or the kid once old enough to choose can revoke his or her citizenship. Or the parents, if the child is very young, can have the kid be a citizen of the parents home country.
This entire effort is simply the Last Stand of the White Conservative. They have read the demographic projections for the next five decades and they know that they will be a minority soon. They fear that they will lose political power, economic power and wealth in the changing of America.
This is a pure political power grab and it should not be dignified to be treated as anything else but that.
I can see that the truth hurts.
whistling past the graveyard...
but do keep on whistling
The anchor babies and their illegal relatives are the replacement population. Just like Whites replaced American Indians, Mexicans are replacing Whites.
The answer if to go out fighting to the death like Crazy Horse and Tecumseh. There will be no Sitting Bull type acceptance of our fate.
Do you honestly think welfare does *ANYTHING* to stop poverty? Seriously? Welfare is set up specifically to stop people from being independent, you are penalized for even trying to get a job or better yourself. Welfare, as it exists today, pretty much guarantees multi-generational dependence on the government.
So who is the new Crazy Horse?
Their numbers are legion. Haha.
sometimes, the masses are indeed asses.
because what followed that in your post never even came close to showing that what you call "pro-illegals", which I guess is right wing code for people that want a path to citizenship, are guilty of anything except attempting to help immigrants.
A pro-illegal is someone who supports rewarding illegal immigration. A path towards citizenship for illegals is rewarding illegal immigration. So yes you are a pro-illegal.
...Stop with the labels and think about actual policy that can help people and make the country stronger.
The country you envision won't exist because the principle of assimilation is no longer operative. Ergo, the country will not be stronger. It will be balkanized.
You realize that most illegal immigrants espouse the "if you work hard enough, your lot in life will improve" ideology that is commonly known as the "American Dream." Their entire goal is to assimilate. There's more to it than speaking English and wearing Levis.
You realize that something being illegal doesn't make it morally wrong, right? Plus if there are more roads to legal immigration, there will be fewer illegal aliens, cuz there will be more legal ones. Making something not a crime doesn't support crime, it curtails absurd and counterproductive laws that don't protect order or security, but simply punish people who haven't done any real harm. Stop with the labels and think about actual policy that can help people and make the country stronger.

Hey if thats not good enough for ya then how about all the charity work that our government does?
And no, despite that popular talking point that welfare is specifically set up to make people dependant on government it isn't true. The only ones that can make people less independant are the people themselves. I know, personal responsibility is a B isn't it? btw...how are people penalized?
