i think about the only thing htats really going to stop border crossings can be found a 30 miles north of seoul :o

well, i am defintely not FOR illegal immigration, and if there was a magical thing that we can do to get rid ofit with NO ill effects, I am all for it...but its basically two sides of the same coin. the same reason that we attract the brilliant minds is the reason why we attract the illegals who annoys a lot of people. the truth of the matter is, its a compromise, and we have to realize that and move on to finding ways to improve the situation, instead of trying to change it or end it think of it as modding your car, the same thing that cuases your car to go faster, is also causing more wear and tear on your car...if we all found a magical mod that gives us insane hp, butkeeps the same gas milleage, same relaibltiy, costs nothing, basically not have a single down side, i am sure we would all have it, but i think everyone here knows this doesnt exist, so we move on and try to find the best compromise :)

the whole thing about illegal immigrants, from a fundamental level, its easy to say, illegal immigrants is a bad thing blah blah blah but...from a real world perspective, its pointless. At this stage, illegal immigration is just as big a part of american culture as legal immigration or even native born americans. WHen you take an overall inprint of a country, you ahve to take the good and the bad. think this to yourself, what would you prefer: 1. That America is such a desirable place to live that we have millions of illegal immigrants coming across every year? causing all the issues as you say? or 2. That America is such a undesirable place to live that virtually no illegal immigrants come? the example of mexico is a bit twisted cuase mexico is not even close interm of how desirable it is to live. throughout history, up to today, and i am sure in the future, illegal immigranttion has been, is now, and forever will be a problem of the most prosperous and free countries in the world. why are we even debating whether its right or wrong or how we should stop it is just pointless....its like if we all got tgether and debated how road rage is bad and how we need to stop it, we all dont like road rage, but we all accept the fact that as long as there are cars on the road, there will be road rage. so getting all worekd up about illegal immigration is kinda pointless... and i am not going to put on my audio hat here...i will instead wear my Carnegie Mellon BS in History (Military and Cultural relationships), MS in Multicultural relations policy and Management hat ;)

exactly! just remember sometimes when a candidates sounds good on paper, espeically to a certain sect of the population, it doesnt always translate into action... just think back about who did more for the civil rights movement, young and vocal JFK? or old timer Johnson? b
