    hi thuinderchips–
    the fact is that all of the people housed in T Don Hutto are in the legal process of becoming a citizen. they are usually rounded up at their homes where they told the US government they would be while they await their amnesty hearings.
    This is purely a money making scam for the private corporations that run the prisons.

  4. I do think that …
    I do think that immagrants should stop coming here, it’s kinda me off..What I don’t get is why we can’t technically do sh*t about it, or why we can’t do something to help them so they don’t cross over our border anymore. Obviously they won’t find a better life, it seems they had just assumed it would be better because of the financial oppritunities, but if they did something so they would be a legal citizen, then maybe things might be diffirent.

    Ah yes, I’m a puto for stating that normal people wouldn’t have this problem if you come to the US legally. Screw you for coming here illegally and living off of my tax dollars, not learning English, and expecting everyone here to support you. Go back to your 3rd world country, puto.

    I just quit working …
    I just quit working at this here. It isn’t what these protest videos try to show. The people in this facility are getting better care than they were before. There are tons of people who move to the US legally. The only people being done wrong there are the workers. They should teach the immigrants how to move to this country legally.

  18. liberal???! hahaha! …
    liberal???! hahaha!
    i support the constitution which allows for people from other nations to immigrate legally. these people are generally in the process of seeking asylum. one of the primary planks of our constitution and american heritage is to open arms to those who are persecuted in their countries for political, religious, or social reasons.

    i agree to a great extent with your position on illegal immigration. but in the context of this situation it does not apply.

  19. Liberals who …
    Liberals who support illegal immigrants are actually (unknowingly) siding with greedy U.S. corporations. Why? Because they (ie. liberals) are protecting corporate America’s cheap labor workers.

    WHO WINS? Greedy companies AND illegal workers (earning FAR more than in Mexico).

    WHO LOSES? The U.S. labor class (U.S. proletariat) via job losses to illegal workers & depressed wages.

    Thus 122 years of U.S. labor struggle (carried out since the Haymarket Rebellion of 1886) is being undermined.

    Where do you live? Is there anywhere to actually go?

    Watch Nafta on cspan where senator shows how the mexican people were driven out of their land by nafta tha our own government supports, its not the peoples fault.

    Why dont we gripe when Bayer sends contaminated HIV/AIDS in their vaccines (knowingly) to other countries yet requests 50 billion for aids studies, its this war thats financially killing us as its physically killing innocent people. They have all the money to go into an unjust war to kill and bankrupt folks, protest that

  23. i come from america …
    i come from america and lucky for me i dont live there anymore..just look at what OUR contry has done to people and the world. AMERICA is so concerned about making a dollar they dont care what they do to the environment or who’s lives they take away. There should be no price put on life. Never mind that mexicans are not illegals they come from the same contry AMERICA.

  24. Yep, you are …
    Yep, you are another ignorant foreigner, who hates America. Enough said.

  25. You are right… …
    You are right… Your country sucks… you said it not me….
    As for me I am not ignorant. I know the situation. It’s too bad that immigrant americans have to work 5 jobs to pay for the war in Iraq.
    It’s too bad you can’t keep your noses out of other countries business…. that is the reason why your country is falling apart. a government. have they found the weapons of mass distruction? NO and they won’t because they’re are none. plain and simple
