Do You Think the U.S. Should Stop Deporting Young Immigrants? (Obama Does)

Barack Obama made headlines Friday as he stated that his administration will no longer deport young illegal immigrants who came to the U.S. when they were children. His announcement, as expected, was met with part-joy and part-skepticism -- as well as a heckler who constantly kept interrupting the president as he spoke.

"These are young people who study in our schools, they play in our neighborhoods, they're friends with our kids, they pledge allegiance to our flag. They are Americans in their heart, in their minds, in every single way but one: on paper," the president said in his speech Friday morning. But he was also quick to add that this is not a permanent answer. "This is not amnesty. This is not immunity. This is not a path to citizenship... It's not a permanent fix," Obama said. Do you think the U.S. should stop deporting young immigrants?

    This is comedy. They aren't Indians if that's what you're trying to get at. Now go scalp a white man since you're so upset.

    Hell unless you're Indian by your standards we both should be scalped.

    Lets forget the whole, you're people do this my people this argument. I'll get to the heart of what I find ridiculous. You're ideas are cruel, simple as that. That's the way I see it, shackle everyone up even the children and make them clean up everyone's trash, oh yes that's brimming with compassion.

    You're a fool to think all are like that. You may not realize but many who come here are looking for a better life due to the fact life in Mexico is deadly, many in Mexico fight to stay alive. You wish to say many are all these things, go there, know the people and maybe you won't feel the need to generalize a people you've given the chance to know.

    Not ALL are like that, but many are. Even if ONE is, ONE is TOO many.

    They are NOT Americans and are here ILLEGALY, and every second they are here they are breaking our laws.

    If a person from an abused family is in your house, eating your food, using your electricity, using your clothes, using your car, using your insurance and paying you nothing and do not have your permission to be there, are you going to let him stay?

    Brilliant!!!

    First of all, it makes you sound ridiculous when you try to shout brilliant due to the simple fact you're trying to be sarcastic, Especially with the exclamation points following, it makes your supposed sarcastic remark sound like an urgently blurted out word from out of nowhere. Now for your flawed philosophy, one bad apple does not spoil the bunch.

    Really? Even babies?

    Imagine you find out suddenly that you weren't born here, that you were brought to the US when you were only one month old; suddenly your home would be something "illegal" for you, would you honestly think what you just suggested was fair treatment in how to deal with you because of a mistake your parents made?

    Are you trying to tell me all of these people DON'T know they are illegals? They all know they are and hide the facts. Get rid of each and every one of them and I could care less if they are doctors, teachers or anything else. They are illegal.

    No, we should not stop deporting young immigrants. They are here illegally and breaking our laws, and many are taking jobs that some of our unemployed could be taking. Obama is doing this just to get the Mexican vote in November. He is going around Congress, being a dictator by using his executive priviledge in declaring this edict. This should cost him every white vote. People have to wake up to what this President is doing, and put an end to it. I pray that this edict costs him the election, because in this edict, he has not only bypassed Congress, but has gone against the will of the people of this Country. They have been against amnesty everytime it has come up, and this is just another way of forcing amnesty down our throats. Every illegal should be deported, then if they want to come into this country, come in the leagal way, learn English, adopt our culture, obey our laws, and pay taxes, like all of the immigrants that came here in the mid 1800's. We have to have quotas honored and abided wirth.

    He's a dictator because he's just bypassing congress and everyone and doing whatever the hell he wants, what he's doing is illegal, he has no power to do what he did.

    I won't be voting for him, I didn't the first time and I'm counting down the days like a lot of other people are.
    I am puzzled that with 50% of black and Latinos unemployed how does Obama expect illegals to find work? :|

    It's the government's fault we don't have jobs right now, millions went to bail out banks {Run by democrats, banks I mean, the idea of bailouts were also were democrat ideas} and millions more went to failing "green" solar companies owned by Obama's friends and then money came back to Obama which is illegal because it was tax payer money...
    Then 5 trillion dollars in several stimulus money packages that didn't do anything to help the economy.
    15 trillion more soon added in incoming debt thanks to Obamacare, to top it off Obama restricting Business' with regulations so much that business' are scared to hire anyone let alone invest in business ideas that would grow the economy.
    The regulation is so bad that business' don't know if they can hire because the next month regulations could change and they might have to pour more money into updating their business'...
    Obama has done nothing to help America get back on track, as I said, if us legal Americans have a hard time finding work how in the heck are illegals supposed to find work?
    You're only 15 so I don't expect you to understand or have a clue what I'm talking about.

    I support President Obama's decision. If the Republicans in Congress hadn't stood against "The Dream Act" this would not have happened.

    BTW, it wasn't a "heckler." It was a reporter from The Daily Caller & I'm glad the president put in his place. I'm sick of these idiotic CONS who think they can treat our president like they please. It was RUDE & UNPROFESSIONAL.

    Well Guru, I see that you have been drinking the Kool Ade that Obama has been feeding you.
    Obama deserves to be treated any way that we conservative want to treat him. He'a a loser, and is ruining our once fine Country. You'll wake up one of these days, and wonder what happened to a once prosperous and honorable Country. Obama has made the USA the laughing stock of the World, and put us in trillions of dollars of debt that we won't ever be able to repay, even if the Government took every dime that every citizen made, it still wouldn't be enougn to retire our National debt.

    So they should be snatched out of the only world they know and sent to a country they know nothing about because their parents made a mistake in the pass? In my opinion, everyone who thinks this way should be deported because its inhuman and idiotic to do a child in such a manner. America is built on immigrants. Should everyone be deported?

    Others came here LEGALLY.
