I guess we're past all the formalities now and we need to just be overrun with idiots from other countries...people who don't get educated, people who live in poverty, people who have brought the worst gang violence into this country since the Mafia!

San Diego just put up a border fence and it's crime rate dropped around 50% due to less illegal immigrants crossing from Tiajuana to San Diego....but as long as YOU (who don't even live remotely close to the United States right now) don't see an issue with increased crime then I guess we're ok.
Five sentences is not a rant. Five paragraphs of empty blather (at least) every time you reply, however, is.

Where to start with this one? America hasn't imported people to work for slave wages? How about all the actual slaves you imported? Are we both talking about the same America here? Hispanic people assimilate just as fast as your ancestors assimilated when they pitched up. And whenever that was, the racist assholes among the people there already used the same racist tropes on your ancestors. Italians, Irish, even Germans got exactly the same bs as Mexicans are now getting. It was bs now and it's bs then. You can't seriously be affected by $33 a year so you must be worried about your employment prospects. So be an American, stop whining and better yourself. You can be damn sure all these Undocumenteds are doing that. Who's going to be better off in 40 years, you or them?
