Are Anti illegals fighting an invisible enemy?

Question

Why do people worry about illegal immigrants when it's clearly so hard to even tell who they are?

As you can see from my last question: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=ApjpvS7SfsY9pA68NelACjTsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20080619220541AAuuZZv

I'm sorry, I don't see where the clear and present danger is? Maybe you can help me understand? :)

Answer 1

12-20 million illegals might try to hide, but they certainly aren't invisible.

They are in hospital emergency rooms, food stamp offices, WIC lines, kids are in school.

Nope I'd say they are there for all to see

Answer 2

What other option is there, give up and let the nation turn into Tijuana. No thanks.

Answer 3

fighting aliens from the planet Xenon

Answer 4

ALL criminals are an "invisible enemy" by YOUR definition. In other words, you can't LOOK at anyone and identify them as a criminal...COMMON SENSE!!!

Please don't tell me that because we can't look at someone and identify them as a criminaL that they AREN'T AN ENEMY!!!!!!!

Answer 5

I work in a hospital, if they are invisible, then who are all these people with no papers and no habla ingles that come in every single day of the entire year by the droves?  HMM, now I'm wondering here. Strange question.

Answer 6

Apparently you have no clue what a VENN diagram is.  

If you did, you would realize the faulty logic you are using. You are WRONG.

You are claiming that since you can't identify a criminal by looking at them, you are confused and can't see where the clear and present danger is. Hellooooooo...

Since you can't identify a child molester by looking at them, you don't see where the clear and present danger would be for your children and others....give me a break!!!

I would highly suggest you delete this question. I actually gave your intelligence more credit than this question deserves!!!

Answer 7

I think it's because they have nothing better to do and they just like complaining. They also like to use illegal immigrants as an  excuse to all their problems in life.Like how the illegals take their jobs and stuff.

Answer 8

It's clear you don't live in L.A. or you would see how foolish a question like this can be.   Of course, claiming that ALL anti illegals have no relations or have to deal with illegals on a daily basis like I do is seriously pedestrian.

Shouldn't the entire nation be anti-illegal, it really is the best thing.  I've yet to meet a pro-illegal person that actually knows the ramifications of uncontrolled illegal immigration, and it shows.  Can you imagine if our entire nation was pro-illegal, the very thing these illegals come here for in the first place would be gone in a flash.

Answer 9

Well, maybe they are like chasing their tails

The yanks are making an excellent job themselves regarding the decline of values ( by the way, which are they ? I have not seen values here, except the money. People let you die on the street and nobody cares  )

Answer 10

Huston, WE HAVE A PROBLEM!

I had to take my wife to the emergency room and guess what,  there are posters in several languages that tell people CALIF. LAW mandates that everybody gets treated regardless of ability to pay.

Now my wife did not have life threatening injuries so they made her wait over two hours while others where treated, this is COSTING the Calif. taxpayer and its costing us in quality of care that the PAYING CUSTOMERS, the people who actually pay the bills around here .. have access to.

There has been talk of San Francisco and L.A. being "sanctuary cities" great, they will shield people who have VIOLATED the LAW!  NOT A GOOD IDEA!

AMERICA is supposed to be a nation of laws, so why do we have the decree of Mad King George (or for that matter anyone) to establish policy, when we have LAW on this subject?

Answer 11

Yes they are.

But SOME of those who are fighting are doing it because they are seeing SOME races that they don't like and they are targeting them. They think that they are their enemies.

But they are wasting their time, because their hateful campaign is going nowhere. I think that those people who hate immigrants are just having an obsession and they applaud themselves to give support to their ideas, because nobody is paying attention to them.

Those hatred groups are just trying to brainwash people who are having problems in their lives and they are looking for a scapegoat, besides there are SOME of them who are really prejudiced and they don't need the brainwashing.

I guess that the same people are just saying, "Keep posting against illegal immigrants" because they think they are making a change, that's why we see SOME of them obsessed with that issue. That is just a sick and immature mentality, maybe n**i types and the decent people in America, knows about it and they don't pay attention to them.

PS, I also think that when people from other countries read what SOME antis post here, they laugh a lot about  the USA, those antis don't realize that they are giving a bad name to the USA, and they can't change the fact that in a few years America will be better, more nationalities, more colors.

Answer 12

No dear we aren't fighting an "invisible" enemy.  The effects of their presence can be readily seen.  If you live in the southwest part of the US they are quite visible.

And think about it:  Most criminals hide their criminality when interacting in public.  Those who commit crimes in public try to hide their identity--masks, hoods, wraparound sunglasses etc.

The clear and present danger is the cost ($70 BILLION annually, with all their so called financial contributions factored in), the complete and utter lack of accountability for rules and laws (and then the m essage that sends to others--if this law is OK to disregard, then why not another?), their lack of assimilation and the decline of the American values and way of life.

Answer 13

Well, the same can be said of terrorist.   Just because we can't Identify them easily doesn't mean we shouldn't fight them.   We can see their effects.

Answer 14

Fear, the invisible enemy,

The enemy within is a formidable enemy and harder to vanquish. Once defeated, do you lose a part of yourself or have you gained a stronger self?

Answer 15

Your claim is that since you can't look at someone and identify them as a criminal, that criminals don't exist and they aren't an enemy!!!

What logic!!!!!!

What school did you go to?? I wanna make sure to NOT send my children there!!!!
