They all knew the language enough to speak it, and unlike these illegal deadbeats here, they had a ****in' job and made a living like the rest of us. They were quite commendable and happy to be here.

Unlike the hordes of illegal Mexicans who show up in packs of 4 or 5 at all times of the day usually trying to pay the only legal relative of their's spanish channel satellite bill and asking me if they need ID to get a cell phone plan. Not to mention the old ones buying steaks at the grocery store with food stamps paid for by the public.

They are not in the cities, they are hiding out in the small towns. All the real immigrants were in the city when I lived there and I was none the wiser at the time to the increasing problem. The usual legal immigrants who worked for a living were in the city and I admired them for making a new life. Now that I've moved back to the middle of nowhere, I see that at least 40% of the population here is Hispanic and a good portion of those are illegals who have no intent of becoming an American, but getting freebies off the horribly run gov't and continue being Mexican.

It speaks volumes when the immigrants from Brazil, Honduras, Belize, Venezuela.. what have you... get seriously offended if you even imply that they are "Mexicans", though the real deadbeats from those countries have been flooding in quite a bit recently too since they've learned of the free gov't cheese to be easily had in the US at honest citizen's expense.
again that's all good and true and I agree...and the people you mentioned went thru the immigration proceess legally and I too agree this is the way....but we still are left with the issue of the illegals we need to solve....solve the problem..put something into place and go from there...I don't mean to come off wrong I agree shipping every single one back and even not allowing legal entrance is in order for a while as punishment...but I refuse to waste the gas money shipping them back to Nogales when tommorrow they will be right back where they were...it is a waste...it is not solving the problem....and those land mines cost money too.
