I blame the employers who offer these illicit jobs and thereby add billions of dollars in social costs, education costs and healthcare (hospital emergency rooms) costs, while also putting a persistent downward pressure on all prevailing wage-rates in the U.S.<BR/><BR/>Illegal immigration is an <B>ILLICIT EMPLOYER</B> problem, rather than an illegal alien problem.<BR/><BR/>That said, our current porous border policy also allows many people who come here for nefarious reasons to also cross into this country and that is a national security problem.<BR/><BR/>I apologize for assuming that you meant something you clearly didn't.JMKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14281344324964417974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1559661241465229945.post-40291863713804597592008-07-21T21:30:00.000-04:002008-07-21T21:30:00.000-04:00You're welcome DI, I just felt I needed to calrify...You're welcome DI, I just felt I needed to calrify that.

Didn't you see that I also stated that these POS's deserve to die? I was simply correcting you on the legal status of the perpetrators who commited this heinous crime. To say that I don't care without even knowing is an ignorant statement.<BR/><BR/>I am from houston and I was about the same age as Elizabeth when this happened and as much crime that takes place there this is one incident that I will never forget. And I have been following this case and the fact that these POS'S are still alive (except for Sean O'Brien of course)upsets me , and I am looking forward to the day that Jose gets executed because it has been a long time coming and I am upset that Mexico has been trying to intervene. In my opinion Mexico should bring back the death penalty and make a new law stating that any Mexican citizen who commits a capital offense in ANY country would face automatic death penalty, because it's POS'S like Jose Medellin that give a bad name to the latin people. And im sure you figured it out by now that yes I am Hispanic, 8th generation Mexican American, and as far as the illegal immigration thing goes I do believe it something should be done and if they want to come to the U.S they should do it legally. But the racial hatred that has spawned out of this issue is something that bothers me, and it has caused a lot of anti-hispanic sentiment throughout the states. But I do appreciate your comment that most do come here to make an honest living, many others like to proclaim that all<BR/>immigrants from Latin America are violent criminals.antoniohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07943625000866699318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1559661241465229945.post-48589478679527746452008-07-21T12:56:00.000-04:002008-07-21T12:56:00.000-04:00Well, that clarifies the otherwise seemingly uncha...Well, that clarifies the otherwise seemingly uncharacteristic glimpse of reality pertaining to Mr. Gore.

That Elizabeth Pena was 16 y/o and Jennifer Ertman just 14 y/o...not so much? Hmmmmm...I have to wonder why?<BR/><BR/>I readily admit that I do subscribe to the view that ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION has led to a rampant rise in violent crime here, although that is far from the ONLY or even primary reason I, like the overwhelming majority of Americans, support an ENFORCEMENT FIRST approach to illegal immigration and the use of e-Verify and other means to cut off illicit jobs and force the illegals here to self-deport.<BR/><BR/>I blame illegal immigration for increased violent crime, while readily acknowledging that appx. 90% of the illegal aliens here, are good and decent people, who come only for jobs that aren’t available in their homelands. You see, less than 1% of the indigenous population engages in violent crime, so, in that context, the difference between a 1% level and a 10% level is staggering, at least on a per capita basis.JMKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14281344324964417974noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1559661241465229945.post-83615345300595953572008-07-20T17:52:00.000-04:002008-07-20T17:52:00.000-04:00bout bloody time isnt it my friend!..great find JM...bout bloody time isnt it my friend!..great find JMK!:)WomanHonorThyselfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17211851365273181636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1559661241465229945.post-40596981395202275612008-07-20T08:40:00.000-04:002008-07-20T08:40:00.000-04:00i'm sure that regardless of what many feel or do n...i'm sure that regardless of what many feel or do not feel, the death penalty is meant as a deterrent. is it? who knows. <BR/><BR/>that is an awful story about the two teenagers. just awful. if the crime was committed on american soil where certain laws are present then i fail to understand how anyone should have a problem with medellin headed for legal death.Donhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02904024507867487521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1559661241465229945.post-44110277219275673822008-07-19T18:10:00.000-04:002008-07-19T18:10:00.000-04:00Stunning statement by Algore, of all people!
