| Message | I think its a waste of money - there are likely more substantial crimes to be concentrating our resources upon. |

| Message | By not doing anything, you encourage new ones to invade our country and suck the wealth away from Selucia |

| Message | Actually, they don't suck away wealth. Being resident here, they contribute to the wealth be increasing the labour pool, providing more competition for jobs, and driving down wages. All of which are good for business, my capitalist friend. Secondly, the laws are enforced when called upon - but witch hunts are expensive. But, if you can find some police to do it for free... |

| Message | Well, in the United States there ARE people who track Mexican immigrants just for free, there are people who invest over 50 000$ in material to track them, they see it as their patriot duty to do that. |

| Message | Link please? Secondly, you'll note that despite large walls that America has built to keep Mexicans out, and hundreds of millions of dollars spent to prevent illegal immigration from Mexico alone, their attempts have been a dismal failure. Essentially, a giant waste of money. |

| Message | Wouldn't the logical thing be to not put this to a vote until you have tendered all the evidence on this point? We now have to vote without having seen your evidence. |
