What do Native Americans think about illegal immigration from Mexico and Latin America?

[torin7]

How do Native Americans view issues like border security, building a border fence, and immigration laws like the one in Arizona? What do Native Americans think America should do about illegal immigration?

[felabeorbt]

Similarly to how non-Native Americans will feel when they're invaded.

I guess the same as everyone..

Which tribe?

We are as diverse about it in our opinions as every other group of people, many support strict enforcement, others don't care and many of us laugh at the whole problem and think now if we only would have had strict immigration policies...........you simply can not place one of the most Independent races of people in a block and expect to define our opinions

[condan]

They think, **** them I hate BS(Black and Stupid) people. This country was founded on immigrants but not illegal immigrants. And it was also founded on slavery so we should go back to slavery.

[gideon]

maybe ironic

[montgomery69]

They think that will just be replacing one group of illegal immigrants (white and other non-NA's) with a new group of foreign invaders.

Amazing how many non-natives love to tell you what they believe we think. Are we incapable of speaking for ourselves?

As for illegal immigration....it started in 1492 as far as we're concerned.

I think it is hypocritical and ironic that people whose ancestors immigrated here just a few generations ago are the ones screaming to stop immigration.

You see what happened in Georgia? They threw all the illegal mexicans out of the state, and half the farmers promptly went bankrupt, because when harvest came, there was a shortage of 20,000 workers to bring in the crops, and so all the crops just rotted in the fields. Georgia has big problems now.

A border fence is a joke. Did you see that episode of mythbusters where they build a segment of "border fence" (according to proposed specs) and asked test subjects to get past it? Well, all it took was 30 seconds and a pair of wire cutters to get through it. Others were just as quick getting over or under it. For all the time, effort, and money wasted in building a fence, it didn't even slow anyone down.

There's no such thing as illegal immigrant for those who believe.

let's not forget that the only illegal migrants are those who do illegal activities as they have been doing to Mexico from their forts in the North.
