    Wait a second, why are you mixing up legal with illegal? I have stated we need to increase our legal quota, but you can only do that by putting a clamp on illegals. The children of legal immigrants are citizens of the US and an important part of the economy. That has nothing to do with the trail of destruction and devastation for both sides caused by illegals and their chain baby tactics.

    Well ask yourself why a border state like Texas, who has been under conservative control for over two decades, does nothing about illegal immigration?

    Your own party sells you out.

    And a nation does have the right to decide who and how many, what if the nation is more leniant than you want?

    blatant (but typical leftist) lie. Meanwhile california the sanctuary (for criminals) state just ignores federal laws.

    I hope texas ignores firearm laws in the future.

    Can you provide proof of this. Get her out of here for breeding with such a loser, and tell the women of the Hispanic community in general life isnt a race to have as many kids as possible once you turn 15. You make bad decisions, you'll pay the price.

    What is the actual debate about here? There has yet to be a Democrat who has wanted open borders, and all have stated if you are illegal and caught at the border , you will be turned back.

    So what's the issue with being strict and enforcing the law?

    There are far bigger issues to focus on, this is a non issue the media has jumped on because of a few crying babies. And those tears are because of their parents negligence. When I hold myself accountable for decisions I make as an adult, that means I expect the same of others.

    OK, you wrote “only US citizens can give birth to US citizens”, which is why I asked. Under that rule, a lot of Americans I know (including myself) would not be citizens.

    sure they have including Keith Ellison. They also don't want to enforce laws, and want to get rid of ICE. The problem is you need some sort of cultural and regulatory alignment before you have free movement of goods and people. We are much closer to that with canada but not there.

    I would just suggest that anybody drive down to McAllen or Laredo to see the border and the area inside the border patrol checkpoints. It's pretty interesting.

    Keith Ellison statement that I have read is a bit more nuanced than simple open borders, no law enforcement, etc that you are presenting

    Below is the Ellison quote:

    We just have to say that the 12 million undocumented people in the United States are here because somebody wants them to be. But they want them here to do the work, but they don’t want them to get any rights. They don’t want to pay them fairly. They don’t want them to be able to bargain collectively. They don’t want them to be able to get occupational safety and standards. And that is what’s really going on,” Ellison said.

    “And these trade agreements, you know, they allow capital to travel other borders, and all capital is, is people who happen to own something we call a corporation, which is a legal arrangement which gives them special rights. And labor, which is a regular person, cannot travel back and forth across the border,” he continued. “And so corporations, certain people who get certain rights, can go back and forth across the border seeking out the lowest wages, but people, regular people, cannot go back and forth across the border seeking out the highest wages. So what it creates is an imbalance. It creates an injustice.”

    As has been explained there are two different sets of statistics. They aren't in conflict.

    And just like not knowing the exact numbers goes for the statistics posted talking about visa overstays, the same goes for the statistics discussing border crossing.

    Nobody asked you for a lot of things. Are you okay with people coming legally and then overstaying? We want to make sure you are accepting of that.

    Countless people have worked towards legal status from the scenario just mentioned.

    Yeah, I dont know what that has to do with open borders. It's a smart, sensible take on the issue and highlights even further why illegal immigration and chain babiez have to be shut down, so even the lowest ranking members of society can have rights and less frustrations. Less frustration means less need to murder, rape , kidnap etc.

    His official stance has nothing to do with a free for all come on over fellas system.

    So your take is free movement of people but no citizenship or rights granted? what exactly are you agreeing with the antisemite on?

    Did your parents give birth to you while legally residing in the country on a green card?

    If they were on a Visa, what was the length and purpose of the stay?

    Was your mother pregnant while traveling?

    How long did it take for them to receive citizenship, or did they never receive it?

    You can include those here legally in it, but they have to pass a criteria that ensures they arent playing the system like this murderer and his conniving baby momma.

    It's not hard to figure out who's gaming the system and who's not, and also set up a system where those on visas have to report to a commission as soon as their stay is up.

    You're putting words in my mouth. My take is shut down illegal immigrants entirely, when successful increase quota of legals who can work for corporations at low wages but have rights and access to citizenship. Focus on our own backyard first before regulating Mexico. If corporations take their work to cheaper labor in Mexico, at $5 hr instead of 10, that's fine, but they'll have to pay higher taxes/tariffs to import these goods to the US.

    So shut down NAFTA, have a guest worker program that is lower than minimum wage but access to services and citizenship?

    All I know is the POTUS is a POS for even bringing it up.

    This is the same crap that the right does when a terrorist does something. "See!! We were right!!1!"

    Where is this passion when some guy in Colorado murders his family, or some dude shoots up a theater/school? #crickets

    White man kills dozens in Las Vegas - GOP - too early to talk about Gun Control.

    one illegal immigrant kills a girl in Iowa - We must build that wall.

    Hypocritical idiots.

    So Texas Dept of Labor can’t do anything? They can’t come up with their own e verify program?

    You don’t think loose labor laws and low minimum wage make hiring illegal immigrants easier?
