Crackdown On Illegal Immigrants In the US

This is becoming a national issue in the state.  as far as I am concern.  this people are part of the economy.  They are law abiding citizens and are paying their taxes.  they should be left alone as long as they are not involved in any criminal activities.

USA need a better programme for immigrants.  There was a case of a  illegal Latino worker who saved up to $57,000.  His account was frozen on the precedence that he is illegal.  He worked hard for that money and should be given back his money.  Leave this people alone please.

Abiding by what law?


they have no choice, not paying taxes would put them in worse trouble with the IRS.


How do you know that faceless people are not involved in criminal activities?


Wrong! His money was confiscated because he failed to declare that he was carrying more than $10,000 in cash to the US customs. That is a crime.

It is financially impossible at this stage, however i do not support a process of legalisation as that will be unfair to the many who have spent donkey yrs on the official queues.
Make it harder for illegals to get jobs, health insurance and other government benefits . . . deport those who are caught. . .  that might do the trick.

I love the way you catch these things 


A couple of years ago, Lagos experienced a huge influx of immigrants from liberia and Ghana. What happened? what did the people do?? Well,  most of them were hard working and decent beings but they still had to leave, infact, the majority were deported by the Nigerian government cause of the problems that arose from the mass move. Jobs went to these people and basically, the economy was strained.

Now, it is America that has a problem with immigrants and suddenly they are decent and law abiding people and need to be left alone??

some? not some of them - all of them - send them back home and let them turn to farmers.

The target of this crackdown is really the Mexicans. But if it comes to the worst, I trust Nigerians. Before the authorities take a step, they're already two ahead!

There is major crackdown on illegal immigrant in France and some other parts of Europe. There is a crack down on all immigrants in Switzerland whether legal or illegal, as long as you're not from a wealthy nation, you'll be out at your first mistake.

I don't believe this is all happening par chance, I'm sure there's a concerted effort. Things must change.

@ Davidylan,

Must everyone have an equal measure of suffering to achieve the same result?

Your mindset is at best hitlerian. Pray, how does the legal status granted to one affect the legal status granted to another based on their varying degree of suffering before acquiring such status?

People like you refuse to acknowledge that change is necessary and believe in eye for an eye in all situations.

Some of those illegal immigrants that you are calling for their deportation are solely responsible in ensuring that at least 10 other human lives are sustained elsewhere in Asia, Africa, and Europe etc.

Some of those you gleefully look down on as the scum of the earth are more educated than you, smatter than you and will probably become more successful than you.

So you are legal and probably born in the US, but are you an employer of labour or do you wake up just like most people to go make a living in another man's establishment?

Do you demand wage increases and support minimum wage? If so, what right do you have to do so since you did not suffer as much as the business owner in setting up his business.

Life is give and take. I have seen people like you and I deal with such people all the time. You want to be here and there at the same time. You probably want to have a heart attack just because your neighbour bought a new car. You constantly want to be in a position where you will look down on others. You refuse to offer basic help to people and expect the world from others.

Face is not in the habit of laying into people, but some people do make me sick.

davidylan - we r cooking your head in our pot - watch out.

Its not being selfish, it is simply obeying the law. There is a reason Africa is where it is today, the complete lack of regard for those things called laws!


Should we really be this lax in our attitude? Since when did we start glorifying illegality on the altar of "afterall others do it too"?
Is there anyone still wondering why Nigerians are so rich and yet so poor?


i am an immigrant like you, it took me 2 yrs of hard work to get here by legal means. If you were american you'd say the same thing. If you cant obey the law then stay in your countries. If the US were as lawless as Nigeria we wont have anywhere to go.


lol some people apparently take the internet too seriously.

Why would people migrate to other nation if not in search of education, wealth and security

I recalled in the 70s and 80s USA and other European countries were giving out scholarships to Africans to come and study in their countries.  Most of the recipient left and went back home and put their education and exposure to a good use.

My stand is, as long as the illegal immigrants are not breaking any rules or law of the land.  They should be given a work permit.  They are paying taxes and contributing to the development of the nation.

Do you need a dictionary to understand the meaning of the term "illegal"?

@davidyland@yahoo.com,

Why are you shielding your identity 

You are such a coward
