San Diego Congressdouche Duncan Hunter (Cracker-CA) believes that US-born children of illegal immigrants should be deported along with their parents because we just can't afford to keep them.

Gee, congressman, deportation is expensive too, wouldn't it be cheaper to just put them down like dogs?

I swear I'm not native to this planet and I'm here by mistake--there must've been a malfunction in the transporter or something.

2. How many generations could he trace this problem back?
Who would he stop with?

Eastern Europeans?
Mediteranean natives?

Maybe a century worth of immigrants?


How much money do undocumented workers bring to California in taxes and in the means of production? What are they going to replace that revenue with?

6. This is crazy in so many ways. First we are all immigrants to a degree.

Most of us are mutts and by now have a little bit of everything in us. These children of immigrants tend to be much harder workers in general than those growing up in Southern CA families (especially rich families). So their financial situation has everything to do with immigrants and nothing to do with their life style's (over spending)? I used to live in S.Ca and I called it living on fake money(and the kids they raise while spending this fake money are really screwed up because they're wondering where they can find some of that fake money). Many use these immigrants for cheap labor and then throw them away. If they want to control this they need to fine the people who are using their cheap labor or make them (their employers) get work visa's (or green cards) and if they prove they are good citizens they can apply to be a citizenship eventually. America has such a history of using people then throwing them away. Very sad...we are all human beings!

8. That's a wholly inaacurate generalization of Socal.
Yes there are the faux rich living on the fake money just as you say, but the vast majority of Californians are trying-to-make-a-living working and middle class ordinary folks just like everywhere else.

10. It is a generalization about S. Ca. I've lived all over CA and believe me living
in S.Ca is like being in a very different state from N. Ca. I have family and friends all over Ca. Obviously there are many hard working lower, middle class and upper class people who aren't using "fake money" and are barely surviving on real money. But we have many friends and family members who are very republican and their comments are usually very racist like "we have to get all those Mexicans out of Ca". Believe me, many have enjoyed their cheap labor force but are not willing to acknowledge that. I call Northern Ca. anywhere from Santa Barbara on (though Santa Barbara has changed since I grew up there). I lived in Newport Beach and Laguna Beach for 6 years during my impressionable early 20's and saw so much shallowness (and actually learned so much about people and that I would never want to live there again). Of course that is not everyone. But living in the Bay Area for 10 years after that was very different. I love CA and I don't totally understand the immigration problems but when I hear some of the people I know from CA talking about "those Mexicans" it just makes me sad. They should pay taxes and have access to health care and education just like everyone else who work in the states. We have to make it legal and have a plan where they can eventually be US citizens if they prove they are good citizens and the ones that cause troubles should lose the ability to become legal citizens. Employers who hire someone who is not legal (usually for cheaper labor) should get fined and that money should go towards helping workers to become legal after there work permits are up. It's my understanding that it easier to get in the states versus getting out so many turn to crime because they can't make it and if they try to go back they may get arrested. Why not have a legal way for more to get in for a specific period of time?

9. Change The Law
I do not think the children of illegal immigrants should be deported, but I think the Constitution should be changed to deal with the issue. As most, if not, all of us realize there is an amendment (14 Amendment) in the Constitution that states anyone born in the United States is a citizen of the United States. That amendment should be ajusted to say that any child born of parents who are legal citizens of the United States will be citizens of the United States. This ajustment could be done in a way that it is both immediately enacted, but not effective to previously born children of illegal immigrants. In other words it should and could be done in a way that makes the law take effective the day it is signed while also preventing the deportation of children born to illegal immigrants before the law was signed.
