Is illegal immigration a problem in your country

[i-watermelon john]

Where I live, it is "you are here illegally and you have only a few rights", but deportation is almost always guaranteed. I think that is the way it should be. I had to do everything right to live and stay in this country so I might be quite harsh on my opinion, but people who break the law sometimes end up breaking the law again and again.

here's an article about the situation in Arizona

Yeah, Arizona has done the right thing- only about twenty years too late, I gather.
Illegal immigration is a huge problem here, and there is a federal election underway here in which this is the main topic of both major parties. Even legal immigration is under the hammer, because most of the interior of the country has a climate like Libya or Israel, while the majority of folk squeeze into the limited coastal 500 K's in from the sea's edge, where the climate is like California or the South of France..understandable, but it puts big strains on resources.

We've been having trouble with illegal immigrants ever since I climbed the wall into England under cover of darkness.
