that's cool
what statistics or conclusions from those statistics can i get from your principles
[QUOTE=wystan;49804401]If you just say that's where it came from without a link or title of the report/data/etc, yes.
Imagine if I just said "All illegals are rapists and murderers"

Would you accept that?[/QUOTE]no... cause i could go read the actual paper lol, they are quoting facts and statistics directly from the paper. when you see a source.. go read the source? the legitimacy doesn't come from the words "Source: Pew Research" it comes from the content of said research lmao
you are now arguing that their data is not legitimate because they had the tenacity to put their source..? lol!

have you posted a single source so far
i mean, what you posted would actually be an improvement on what you've been doing
wait, my mistake, you posted a source that showed illegal immigrants didn't own farms

[QUOTE=benzi2k7;49803942]THIS AGAIN.
are you saying illegal immigrants are rapists and thieves?? the issue is that he is specifically targeting actual human beings and declaring them thieves and rapists, the legality does not come into it. the issue is him calling them thieves and rapists.[/QUOTE]
Okay first of all, islam isn't a race, its a religion and ideology so you can't call it racist but you can call it bigoted all you like.
Second of all trump really fucking hates illegal immigrants and no matter what kind of stuff he thinks they do all he wants to accomplish is the total deportation of illegal immigrants which is what should happen in all cases. I think if you respect a country enough to want to move to it you should respect its laws and immigration process and not just think you're entitled to live in a foreign country.

when foreign-labour is used for certain jobs, and when undocumented workers make up a large percentage of those foreign-labour jobs you can then use that data to talk about undocumented workers.

So what's your point you are trying to argue with the data in that pdf?
Without a large illegal immigrant workforce, I seriously doubt the farm industry wouldn't assimilate to another model, whether it be hiring unskilled Americans or mechanizing their tasks. With such cheap labor available, they have no motivation to innovate different techniques in harvesting.

It won't be the death of America if suddenly illegals were all deported (which is literally impossible, whether Trump likes it or not).

It still means that 77% of the Farming, fishing, and forestry occupations are foreign born and together with the post by Cloak Raider that you ignored so far that makes up even more than what the "citizen" part of around 30% leaves which makes your point of legals being able to fill the workforce under current laws even more nonsensical.

Neither do we.
You are the one saying that a wall and deportion is the solution.
Are you following the argument at all?
Hint: You are accepting the "illegals" the very moment you accept lower prices for your goods as well as the taxes they are paying.

spoilers: the solution is to make it easier for people to become citizens
then you get the best of both worlds - you get a source of labor that is willing to work the jobs that naturalised americans won't and don't, and you don't have to build a fucking wall because people will seek legal avenues

cool
give me a design for a wall that
a) won't cost billions
b) actually does anything
(go and watch the penn and teller episode on illegal immigrants, it even features a wall!)
the fucking berlin wall didn't prevent immigration, and that was the fucking berlin wall
