Yes illegal immigrants do the jobs we don't want to do, and for low pay. That is true, but we won't suffer regardless if they get kicked out or not. Reason being, we have other people to do those jobs for us, inmates! I have yet to decide whether or not using prisoners to do field work is slave labor but I do know that it is in process. That will be another argument for another day. I do think that if you want to live in this country then you must obied by the laws. Become a citizen, pay your taxes and quit taking advantage of our country in a way that will negatively impact us all! And how can you even compare this to the civil rights era and say we're being racist? There is one huge difference, the blacks were citizens while these people are ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. Btw I am hispanic as well.
