The cartoonist sure has humour, which can’t be said of many commentators here. Will the whole mankind try to enter the US? Not given the policies of leading politicians. The US is entering the third world faster as anything else, and ecological catastrophe is the outcome of the worldwide hunt for profits at any cost. Making the rich even richer is the “policy” of all parties and almost all candidates. The consequences are fatal.

I am an immigrant myself. Legal. So what? It’s just a paper. I am here for the very same reason the illegals are. Money. Job. Feeding my family.
Here is my question to you, dear americans, and please answer honestly: if we (legal and illegal immigrants) did not know FOR SURE that we could get jobs here in the US, we would make a different decisions about coming here to United States?
Ask yourselves: who are the “kind” people giving the jobs to the immigrants, both legal and illegal? It’s YOU! You want to save money, so you give us job. Stop giving us jobs and we ALL will go home. Don’t tell me none of you have seen the huge billboard on Mexican borders “Come here we’ve got jobs for you” in Spanish. The billboards facing Mexico.
It’s incredibly neat trick - to channel everyone’s anger towards the immigrants and “forget” the americans who bring us (immigrants) here by granting (yes, granting!) us jobs. At your expense.
And what about outsoursing? At the least I had to make an effort to come to the US and learn English in order to get job here. What about jobs that are handed over to India and China and indians and chinese do not have even to get to the US? Is it still immigrants’ fault?
Turn on your brain, please, do not blidly go where you are herded. THINK!

Americans have to show them ‘ze’ papers to get one of their lousy paying jobs, plus they have to piss in a jar. Not one whit of difference. Propagandists. Stop the paper shoving for Americans and the rest can go free. And not a minute before. What a bunch of clowns. Scary clowns. You say it’s OK, for Mexicans to break the law, but NOT Americans???!!! You’re a bunch of crooks.
I agree, Mike: I believe that’s exactly the message intended by the cartoon. When I ask members of the “send ‘em all back!” crowd just how they expect to do such a thing, I get scary responses including going house-to-house kicking in doors a la Kristallnacht. Hey, if you’re legal, just show ze papers proving it and the storm troopers move on to the next house. Nevermind the damage to the door, fill out this form and you’ll be reimbursed...eventually.
Scary stuff, but good insight into the “conservative” mind--such as it is.
The “mass deportation” mania parodied here maybe invites the anti-(mostly “Mexican” Indio)immigrant crowd to get a little perpective....of the “walk a mile in ‘their’ moccassins” kind. Us surviving free wild Indians are looking for a somewhat different outcome (or, if you will, “out-go") in all this, however.
We’re sure theallamericanpeople will soon be only too happy and eager to “vacate” Turtle Island voluntarily. They’ve never felt really “at home” here anyhow....have always been nervous about being caught red-handed as the army-of-occupation they’ve always been....have never gotten over their fully justified fear of “the Indian” behind every tree and rock. Now their current privateering escapade in Iraq has blown their own self-glorifying cover once-and-for-all-the-world-to-see.
Granted, there might not be any easy and painless way out of either mess they’ve gotten theirselves so slaphappily into, but there sure as hell IS a Way, and we can sure as hell show it to them here. So can and will (and are) the Iraqis, in that Indian Country “over there.”
No hard feelings, either....just a big “washte” of relief. There’s gotta be a good word for that in Arabic, too.
Frankly, from the bits of cogent words in your original post I find I’d probably agree with much of what you’d have to say, Zena, but the unwarranted gender-baiting obscures your points. Yes, unwarranted, because you don’t know me. Stereotypes are wrong, as always. The garbage below just underscores how much you’re willing to jump off a cliff not knowing where you’re going to land.

Well, Mark; if you didn’t come here because you want to keep your drug connection, or writepropaganda for some chicken-plucking corporation, I’d say you were deliberately ignorant, or retarded and have not the brain cells to comprehend the whole picture. I have plenty of cause, but will not explain my understanding of the situation to a thug or a hoodlum such as yourself. “Do not cast your pearls before swine as they may turn and rend you.” Such as you have done. You sir, whatever you may be are not a gentleman, nor more importantly you are NOT an honest man. And the same applies to Rick. Sorry, you’re too late, the corp. already did. And I will defend my people sir. Unlike you, I have loyalty and faithfulness. The gig is up; crooks.

G’bye all. I’m off to fix our immigration and taxation problems. Will return with fifty million Chinese to supplant over-priced Mexican labor and usurp redundant government workers. Does this make me a Neoconic Republikan Capitalizt?

P.S. Any American that supports the invasion of Mexico of America, needs to be sent to mexico themselves. Or any country than the one you are betraying. I don’t care where you go, as long as you go...you should be sent into exile.

There’s nothing to stop Americans from fighting a civil war. This time we will have many from the North helping the South to fight against a bill called immigration that is nothing short of selling the American people into slavery. Because that is EXACTLY what it is. Isn’t that why so many of you guys hate women? You want to put them in their place because you feel a sense of misplaced ‘Enititlement’? Give me a break. You’re the Unchristian ones; stabbing your fellow Americans in the back. The Indians don’t care about sending anyone back, as far as I can tell, they just like to sit around and whine about anything available....and I can say that, because I have some of that blood myself. That makes us kin, keemosabe. Suck my snakbite.

Very funny cartoon. I’ve only seen some variation of it , oh...about 3 bazillion times. How original.
Illegal aliens are the problem. Fill out the paperwork, get in line, respect the law and I’ll be bringing the cold cut platter to the “Welcome” party.
Otherwise, go the hell back to wherever you came from.
