Bill- The
people who are here unlawfully are generally doing work citizens won't do (like hard physical labor in the landscape industry or demeaning jobs like bussing tables and doing dishes elsewhere or stooped over in fields picking stuff for your table). Should we round 'em all up and have an "illegal alien drive"? BRBR Yes, the operative word here is 'illegal'. What other laws are ok to break? If the gent is doing a service for the city, county, etc, it's ok for them to break the law?? Bill If we do that who's gonna cut your grass or clean up after at at Applebees or fill your larder with produce and mushrooms? BRBR The problem isn't citizens not wanting to do the work, it is employers who hire these people breaking the law to save $, savings that are not passed on to you. Plus the corrupt country that the individual chooses to leave(read-Mexico). Our borders are a walk in the country to anybody that wants to come here. Money should be allocated to protect our borders, period. Applebees will find somebody to bus tables, believe me. P. C. Chisholm CDR, USN(ret.)

If the gent is doing a service for the city, county, etc, it's ok for them to break the law?? No, not at all. Yet there are about 10-12 million of them. Or, as Lenin once put it, "Quantity is a quality of its own."g The only reason they are "illegal" is because a statute or regulation makes them so. Crossing an artificial line is not a crime "malum in se." IMO most of the these statutes and regulations are nothing more than an expression of hostility towards little, brown men who don't speak English. If our southern neighbor were Sweden or Germany and the illegals all looked like Anita Ekberg or Ursula Andress (or maybe Rutger Hauer) then I don't think we would be having this discussion. A brief walk through U.S. immigration law (including its roots in the hostility towards such "inferior races" as Irishmen, Dutchmen, etc.) might give you different perspective. If figure anybody who wants to work should get a big, "COME ON DOWN!" Bill If we do that who's gonna cut your grass or clean up after at at Applebees or fill your larder with produce and mushrooms? BRBR The problem isn't citizens not wanting to do the work, it is employers who hire these people breaking the law to save $, savings that are not passed on to you. Well, no. Ever try to hire agricultural labor? I have offered as much as $15/hr. cash and had no takers for such tasks as bucking hay, weedeating fencelines, mucking stalls, etc. I can make a quick trip over to Lenoir City and hire a crew for an 8 hour day at $50/head. And those sons of bitches will work their butts off for that $50 (where if I hire 'Mericans I will have to do constant "over the shoulder" supervision). My friends in the industries noted tell me the similar stories. Plus the corrupt country that the individual chooses to leave(read-Mexico). Indeed. Our borders are a walk in the country to anybody that wants to come here. Money should be allocated to protect our borders, period. Applebees will find somebody to bus tables, believe me. I agree on a system of regularization. The idea that you can slam the door shut and nail it tight is fantasy. Bill Kambic If, by any act, error, or omission, I have, intentionally or unintentionally, displayed any breedist, disciplinist, sexist, racist, culturalist, nationalist, regionalist, localist, ageist, lookist, ableist, sizeist, speciesist, intellectualist, socioeconomicist, ethnocentrist, phallocentrist, heteropatriarchalist, or other violation of the rules of political correctness, known or unknown, I am not sorry and I encourage you to get over it. |

Bill- If you were a Naval Aviator then I would bet that in your career you
made one or more choices to violate some regulation 'cause in your view at the time it was a Good Thing to do. BRBR Don't speak for me sir. I see that you weren't really in the USN anyway, but part of the JAG..Where 'interpretation of the law' is an art form. bill I only point out this wrong is determined by the vagarities of time time and place, not some external code of morality. This concept clearly escapes you. BRBR The consept that seems to escape you, that being undocumented in the US is illegal. As a part time prosecutor, what other laws do you choose to ignore because you don't agree with them? If somebody was being prosecuted for being undocumented , would you remove yourself from the case? P. C. Chisholm CDR, USN(ret.)

Do you like it when the children of these 'campos' end up in YOUR school
system, not being able to speak english? To teach them, extraordinary things must be done, that has a HUGE effect on your legal son's or daugther's education. Same for a trip to the emergency department, where here in Boulder, about 55% of those that come there don't speak english and don't intend to pay for these services. I pay for them, and I don't like it. Once again, if you don't like the 'law', then work to change it, Don't ignore it. That is pandering to anybody who is willing to work to save you money, not some pholosophical arguemant about racism or such. P. C. Chisholm CDR, USN(ret.)

Bill- No, not at all. Yet there are about 10-12 million of them. Or, as
Lenin once put it, "Quantity is a quality of its own." BRBR Sure, but we need to start somewhere. Our orders have become so easy to walk through, that many 'non-spanish speaking individuals' are coming in. Those use arab languages as their native tongue. Bill The only reason they are "illegal" is because a statute or regulation makes them so. Crossing an artificial line is not a crime "malum in se." IMO most of the these statutes and regulations are nothing more than an expression of hostility towards little, brown men who don't speak English. BRBR They are illegal none the less. If you don't like the law, work to change it, don't ignore it. As for your racist undertones, that is pure BS. Bill If our southern neighbor were Sweden or Germany and the illegals all looked like Anita Ekberg or Ursula Andress (or maybe Rutger Hauer) then I don't think we would be having this discussion. BRBR Try not to put words in my mouth..I dislike Canadians or French or 'put nationality here' coming into MY country illegally. If you want to paint this discussion as some sort of profiling statement about white males, go elsewhere. Bill- Ever try to hire agricultural labor? I have offered as much as $15/hr. cash and had no takers for such tasks as bucking hay, weedeating fencelines, mucking stalls, etc. I can make a quick trip over to Lenoir City and hire a crew for an 8 hour day at $50/head. And those sons of bitches will work their butts off for that $50 (where if I hire 'Mericans I will have to do constant "over the shoulder" supervision). BRBR Well, do you turn a blind eye for anybody with a warrant out for them, for say shoplifting? Pretty minor but he is 'busting his ass for you'. I see that you are part of the problem, don't care about any solution as long as you get your hay 'bucked'. P. C. Chisholm CDR, USN(ret.)
