How Not to Encourage Illegal Immigration

Its More Simple Then You Think!

Stephanie Manning
With all the fuss about illegal immigration, it seems that President Bush would take a hint on what America wants. Instead of thinking of ways to prevent illegal immigration, he's out golfing, choking on peanuts and falling off his bike!

Not only is it immoral, it's unethical and it's unfair. Not only is it unfair to those who have legally come over here by legally applying for and receiving citizenship, it's unfair to the tax payers. Here are a few easy steps that could be taken by both the President and American citizens to discourage illegal immigration.

Just Say NO!

By passing a bill that allows illegal immigrants that are already over here to stay, he is practically telling the rest of Mexico "Hey, if you can make it pass the border I will let you stay!" How about saying NO? Send the illegal immigrants back to Mexico and require them to come back legally.

Require Them To Speak Minimal English

Ask any 9-1-1 dispatcher what there most complicated call is, and I can bet you they will say... you guessed it, "Spanish speaking callers that can't speak English!" If you can't determine the difference between Police, Fire or Ambulance, and you don't know what address means, you don't need to be here. Not just for your safety but for American citizens safety as well. Regardless of the type of call; be it chocking, heart attack, stroke, traffic accident, structure fire, hemorrhage, it's all 'Policia'. They should be required to speak minimal English before being allowed to obtain citizenship.

Renters: Don't Rent a 2 Bedroom House to 20 Tenants

As with any American citizen, you should not rent your 2 bedroom trailer out to 20 people at one time. We understand that they are paying you $100 each, leaving you with $2000 at the end of the month, but don't you see what's going on? If out of the 20 tenants only one can speak "Me Rent Your House" and only one wants to sign the lease, then chances are, they are the only legal tenant. It should be a sign to you that there is a reason there are 10 people per room! No one else has a Social Security Number to rent there own home!

The Great Wall of America

The Great Wall of America will not only cease immigration but will make others illegal immigrants want to leave before they are caught. The Great Wall of America is simple. Every time an illegal immigrant is caught, don't deport them. Instead of having ICE take them across the border, have ICE leave them AT the border. Tell each illegal immigrant that they can stay under one condition. They MUST NOT allow any other illegal immigrates to cross the border. If they do, then that immigrant will get to take their spot in America, and he who failed the Great Wall will be sent back to Mexico.

Auto Makers Do Your Part As Well!

Auto Makers can tremendously help cut down on illegal immigration by simply changing a few things about their vehicles. When constructing the dash in your automobiles, don't make them large enough to disassemble and fit a human inside. A large trunk will continue to be ok, as Border Control does check the trunk.

See, it's not really that hard! Everyone could do their part!

    mexico is a classist society that has destroyed life for its working class. we will not and cannot save them, by inviting them here. in fact, not only will we destroy any chance for reform in mexico, instead we will destroy the opportunity for the american dream for american citizens, legal immigrants or illegal immigrants.

    if you honestly believe illegal immigration is compassionate, take a look at its cousins human trafficking, identity theft, lack of education opportunity and lawlessness.
    wealthy people can hide from this in their cloistered worlds, but the most vulnerable are the most affected and they are not being heard.
    illegal immigration is killing our nation.

    I am sorry to say that illegal immigrants are criminals no matter how you look at it. Some illegals are paying taxes and getting refunds. There is also free health care and schooling for the children. Tax payers are paying for all this. Criminals should be punished to the fullest for breaking the law. With some research you can find that a lot of illegals are stealing American identities. You can also find news articles where illegals have been arrested for driving drunk and hit and runs and even murder. These people are then deported so that they can come back into the country again.

    Your article is very well done. I look forward to reading more of your work.

    Mexico and a lot of the other Latin American countries will never get their act straight so Stephanie is right on target with her article.

    Well written article on a very controversial subject.

    Interesting read.

    I do agree that they need to pay taxes like everyone else. Alot of them already do (by using fake social security #'s). I just wish America would focus more on making a better (and faster) policy for immigrants to become legal. I think that would solve much of the problem. The reason so many are illegal is because it takes too long to become legal and they don't want their family to continue going through things in Mexico while they wait for legal documents to maybe arrive. I also think they should do it legally as I'm not one to break the law, but I can also see why they don't.

    Now please don't get me wrong. I think they deserve to be free as well. Just like those poor people from Cuba. I just think they should do it Legally! Thats why I titled it How NOT to Encourage ILLEGAL Immigration. I think everyone should have the right to come, but they should do it legally. They should have to pay taxes and follow the rules like everyone else. By the way, I appreciate your positive feedback even though you didn't aggree! :)

    I used to think that illegal immigrants should be sent back, but having recently researched extensively on the topic, my mindset is different. Conditions in Mexico are deplorable and I know if I had to raise my kids there, I'd be headed for the border immediately - any way I could. Instead, I think America should make the process to become a legal citizen much faster than it is. When people are in drastic situations, they don't want to wait years to get out of their mess and they shouldn't have to. It's easy for us to say they should go back because of some of the impact they are having on our economy. However, we are used to living in a free country with running water and a house that isn't made of plywood, an old truck, and a sheet. Seem too extreme? It's a fact that there are numerous people in Mexico who have to build their homes out of materials such as these. I do think they need to learn enough English to understand what is around them, but I don't think sending them back is pra
