Answer 2

Under the law an ILLEGAL person is a law breaker.

They have committed a crime.

But, we have people like the mayor of Phoenix who is soft, even with his last 2 police officers being killed by an ILLEGAL .

They have the right to leave!

But, as long as we have bleeding hearts, we Americans are screwed!

Answer 3

well they got most rights anyway, its the rights that legal citizens have not got, what rights do us have in other countrys none end of

Answer 4

None! You can go back to your country. The key word in your question,is ILLEGAL ! Then if you want to come back,do so the proper way! It's just not right that someone here illegally is taking the jobs that a person here legally should be entitled to. I have no quams about someone comming here the proper way,but I do if they are comming here the illegal way! Do you really tthink that any other country would allow someone to come into their country illegally & get qway with it? I think not!

Answer 5

No rights.

Answer 6

more than a legal citizen

Answer 7

The constitution of the United States covers everyone in the USA legal or illegal.  However non citizens cannot vote.

Congress passed specific immigration laws that everyone should obey and remaining in the USA illegaly is not a right in the constitution since the constitution empowers congress to make laws.  However because you are illegal does mean you should be enslaved, violated, raped etc. You can report civil and other rights violations to the police just like every one else.

Answer 8

They have the right to be deported.  They broke the law and the consequence is deportation.

Answer 9

The only right they have is to be deported back to their own country.  They can then try and come back to the U. S. of A. legally.

Answer 10

Less than a legal resident, a great deal less than a citizen. In fact convicted felons in some ways have more rights.

When you illegally cross the border, you leave most of your rights at the border. Illegals do have the right to go back and claim them at any time though...sooner the better.

Answer 11

What you don't realise is that they are deliberately destroying all sovereignty and opening all borders. Divide and conquer is their plan and that's why you are seeing more and more different nationalities. How to you think the government is going to be able to pay the forthcoming pensions of a vast elderly population. The more people the Government gets in the more they can contribute to pension through their income tax payments. So don't waste your time protesting about immigrants, as it goes far deeper than that.

Are you not aware of The North American Union? (Goggle it). It’s a treaty that Bush signed that amalgamates US, Canada and Mexico as one country destroying all borders. Your stars and strips are to go as well as the dollar. New currency is called the Newmero (goggle it).

In 20 years time there will be no US, only an area of the only an area of The North American Union. It will become a police state directed by the new world order and the population will have been carefully reduced by 85%.
