Love legal immigrants, both here and in the UK, it is shown that legals are more likely to start small businesses and revitalize bad neighborhoods.
In fact, I support increasing the quotas on legal immigrants, but I would want the percentages to be based on population levels, so 50% Asian, 10% Euro, 10% African, 10% American, etc.

I was pleased to see the conservatives here come to the defense of legal immigrants...it is heart warming. I await the new threads about how they can be better friends with our muslim citizens, how they can better welcome them and their mosques into our communities, how anxious conservatives are to encourage more muslims to come to this country. I've just been told over, and over, and over again that conservatives do not hate legal immigrants.....so I cannot wait to see the love from them for ALL our legal immigrants.

What about middle eastern?
Well, Islamic people live in Asia, Africa, and everyplace else in the world so they would be included in the continent quotas. I was reading about so many of the Arabs who come here to learn and then get frustated going back to their own countries and find that they can't open up new businesses unless they pay big bribes or are politically connected to the elite like Mubarak in Egypt. Hopefully the Arab spring will remove many of these barriers.

heartless.......I'd like you to show me where I said that a religion defined a region? I had one post that mentioned the midddle east....no religion given. And one post that mentioned muslim citizens......no region given, the fact that youput those two together would makeyou the one who is defining a region by religion. It certainly shows that you jump to conclusions before you read, and post before thinking. The post by major bean just shows how ignorant he his, he rallies tround a conservative poster before even bothering to check out it's validity.
How many posts have you mentioned "muslims" archer, middle east and muslims go hand in hand with you...nice deflection! Or bait and switch as some would say! :pop
