No they should be taken back to their countries and then they can apply as legal immigrants there...They should follow the process. Taxes is becoming high and it cuts half of your paycheck.

everybody is saying no but the real question is that they are coming free here because the government is letting them come here anyway.

Yes they should.
Illegal immigrants that work here still have to pay taxes when buying food, appliances, and everything else you need to live.
The rent they pay are taxed and they do not get any government benefits in return.
Illegal immigrants are a plus to our economy while we give them nothing back in return.
Without these immigrants America would have even more debt.

That is an interesting question.  If you know the history of our country, we should be able to have some very good dialogue on that subject.  It has been written in history that our forefathers were all immigrants except for the Native Americans.  There is no progress without struggle and freedom comes with a price.  It is my perspective that anyone that comes to America, ethically or unethically, should be willing to follow the protocol in becoming a citizen.  We have the most desirable country for  anyone who is willing to fulfill the purpose of playing a viable role as a consumer.  Hence, we must allow anyone the right to this freedom road called America and we must have in placed fair practices and mandates for those immigrants who happened to be Mexicans.  If they are willing to work hard, it is my perspective that most Mexicans have good work ethics, complete whatever guidelines they must follow. Let them have a chance to struggle their way to freedom for freedom is not free.

Nothing is free in this world.  If they are "illegal", then doesn't that answer the question?  I don't have a problem with people coming to our country for a chance at a better life but what I don't like is the fact that americans have to bend over backwards and change america's way for them.  For example, if I were to move to Spain, I would be expected and need to learn spanish.  If someone moves to america they need to learn to speak english and got hrough the steps to become a "legal" american citizen.  I just wanted to comment on the new law in Arizona.  I don't know why so many people are getting their panties in an uproar because the police are required to ask to see "papers" when they pull someone over.  Don't they already do this?  Everybody gets asked to see your papers... proof of insurance, drivers license and proof of registration.  I don't think we should close our doors for people to come to our country to make a better life for themselves and/or their family.  I just feel that they should be required to follow the law and become citizens or they need to leave and go back to their country.  If I went to Ireland,  after three months I would be required to apply for citizenship or leave their country.  I agree with this and feel that America should go back to enforcing citizenship laws.

imo, as long as they come to the country, legally, become u.s citizens, and pay their taxes, I have no problems with that. On the other hand, since immigrants depend on a program such as welfare and abusing it, it cost us taxpayers more money. My 2 cents anyway.

If they are illegal they should not be allowed into this country for free. I realize that some may have it hard in Mexico, but if we continue to allow illegals in free; how will that affect the citizens and legals? As we speak I am unemployed, if I could speak Spanish my chances of employment would rise.  I realize there is a need to be able to communicate etc, but somehow it does not seem fair to overlook a citizen of their own country because so many illegals have been allowed in.

In all honestly, I personally don't think they should come here at all. I know I sound heartless and rude, but you asked...

Only if they pay taxes like everyone else. Everyone has to pay, no one is free.

If anyone comes into this country it should be legally.  Coming here without the papers is a crime.  But we have so many here that are not legal and I think it is a same that they have jobs when so many of the Americans don't.  The factorys hire them because of cheap labor.  The Americans have fought for this country and made it what it is today.  You don't see the illigal immigrants dying on the battle field for this country.  But they are allowed to work here and that is a shame.  My father, brother and 2 grandsons have been in the service and one grandson is about to go back to Iraq for the third time.  I don't see how this is fair to our own service men.
