This is no Fairy Tale, these illegals are indeed more harm than good, its obvious but yet crazies like thenewnoise will preach how terrible we are for speaking up against them, they need to get some sense...

Why are Americans so quick to point fingers at the Mexicans? Is it because they have dark skin and speak a different language? Is it because Mexico and Mexicans are often associated with the word "poor"? (Yep, the big P word! Yuppies, cover your ears!) I think it's because of that stupid pig, Lou Dobbs... Our land? We WON it? If you ask me, I'd say we stole it -- and did some pretty nasty, messed up things to the indigenous peoples in the process. But that's a-whole-nother story in itself. Perhaps them dirty, long-haired folks don't understand the word 'illegal' because in reality, it doesn't mean a thing. It only means something to the morons who truly believe their country is great; the morons who can't stand to see weak and helpless overpowering the strong and selfish. I believe it was Kurt Vonnegut who described nations as "a proud and meaningless association of human beings." \"Are we justified in using articles, no matter how convenient it may be for us to use them, that we know were produced in conditions which bored and even stultified the human beings who had to make them?\" -John Seymour | |||||||||||||||||||||||

| We are a nation of immigrants, unless you're Native American. We should we shut our doors now? Because we got here before you? Letting these illegals take our jobs? Hey, why don't you study, go to college and get a degree. I bet you'll compete for a job with other college grads, not someone who just hopped the border. By the way, I love Kurt Vonnegut. He wrote my favorite book of all time, Slaughterhouse-Five. But it don't take much to get me by So just booze me up and get me high Ween | |||||||||||||||||||||

What that means is that you are too afraid to face the hypocricy that stands in your position. Why is the Mayflower any different? I think it is worse... You suggest that we should not discuss it though because it was "many years ago". Then maybe we should let the "illegal" immigrants take all the jobs and give them the government too. After all, if just waiting some amount of time makes the harm go away, then todays problems won't matter later down the road so why fight for anything. And for the record, I am very understanding of the word illegal. Here is the definition from dictionary.com : "Prohibited by law." What that means is that some legislative body far away from me made some decision. That does not mean the decision is right. I have another vocab word for you, "Morality" : The quality of being in accord with standards of right or good conduct. I am suggesting that instead of just relying on the legality of something you start talking about the merits of something because, frankly, your legality position is weak at best. Don't believe me? What if tomorrow Congress passes a bill (with no dissent) that says it is illegal to give food to a starving child. Are you still going to just run around and keep asking me if I know what the word "illegal" means when I continue to be willing to break an immoral law? I am not saying that everyone should break whatever law they feel like, but I am saying that laws that are clearly hypocritical should be changed.

It seems like your first point states that the native americans did not mind their land being taken because if they did, they would have ahd some law or custom against it. To that I say 1. It is safe to say that generally they did care because many chose to fight and die to protect the land (one might say some had a "custom" of fighting to protect the land). 2. There could not have been a general law or custom because there was not one body to do this. Each tribe acted independently from eachother. 3. In general there was an idea that land was not something which could be owned, therefor any idea of ownership or conquest was absolutely against law or custom. What I am guessing is your second point is absurd. It happened a long time ago. It was still bad. If time made it okay, then in 200 hundred years it would be okay if the mexican army came in a killed women and children. It would be okay because in 2200 they would say, "That was so long ago... that happened in 2005..."
