Who would retaliate for that? Having worked among, with, and hired illegals aplenty in my time, I don't see much group identity among them.

Its strange that despite the lack of any group identity, here you are trying to say its all a big coincidence, despite not even knowing the facts of the matter.

Mah baby didn do nuffin.

I can't say I have seen very many "vengeful latinos" running around gunning down people and setting shit on fire to redeem their honor. I've also managed to not do either my entire life, despite having had access to both lighters and firearms my whole life.

Herp derp. Nobody said that all Hispanics are vengeful criminals. But to deny that there isn't a criminal element which may be interested in vengeance is moronic at best.

Pancho, I only have one thing to say: knowing that you break the law hiring illegal’s says a lot about your business and you...

I maxed out my Visa.... hehehe

Yes, but did you pay the fines?


Well, this thread has wound me up so here I go again with sharing my feelings and opinions with the rest of you.

For those non-citizen individuals who wish to come to the U.S. simply to work and provide an income for their families, the U.S. does have a work Visa program that they could apply for and then they'd be doing it LEGALLY. We have individuals who want to come to this country and they do it LEGALLY.

The fact of the matter is that we do have borders. These borders establish our territory which determines our socio-economic environments, defines the boundaries where monetary systems begin and end and identifies individuals with similar beliefs, ideals, and values. Or, I would be more correct to say that it USED TO do those things. Once upon a time anyone wanting to come to this country came here to become a citizen - in all that it entailed. That included speaking the language of that nation (even though it wasn't officially the nations language), and integrating into the societies and communities that already existed, NOT turning whole communities into the same as they just left - not completely. Sure, we've got places like "Little Italy" and "China Town" in certain areas of the nation which have clear boundaries, but most immigrant communities blended in. I saw evidence of this while I was in Massachusetts. I had to have a local (a friend) identify to me that we were now in the Vietnamese, or the Portugese, or the Italian, or the Irish part of town. Personally, aside from seeing a greater number of certain ethnicities, I couldn't tell one area from the next.

It's about assimilation to the host, not the host assimilating to the guest. It's about wanting to adopt the values, beliefs and behaviors of a new place for oneself and not bringing in what you left. If you want nothing more that to turn your new home into what you left, then why on earth did you leave your home in the first place?

While our justice system catagorizes different offenses as more or less severe, the fact of the matter is that a criminal is a criminal - period. By turning a blind eye on any criminal activity we are stating that we accept criminal activity in most any form. Some say that we should just open the borders and let these criminals in and give them amnesty for their crime of illegal immigration - I disagree. I would think that such a thing would be a huge slap in the face to those hard-working individuals who worked tirelessly to legally immigrate to this country. I, for one, would have a difficult time looking folks like MB888 and Bellavite it the eye.

That's just how I feel and I won't apologize for it.

I'm not in business to selflessly provide anyone with a job, least of all some self-righteous entitlement-mentality native born American. I.

I am all for you being able to make that choice IF those you hire are here leagally. From the perspective I have. If someone is legally here regardless of nationality, religion, etc. etc... than by all means hire and fire at will most if not all of them work far harder that your typical individual.. It is solely the illegal aspect that I have issues with. And every thing else that results from it. There are some fine individuals here from south of the border and there is some incredible examples of ignorant trash from that same pool of humanity.

Isn't the woman who's husband was killed (they are from here by the way) under investigation for the possibility that she committed the murder? I know that the Mexican authorities immediately dismissed the idea that it was a Mexican gang, but I'm under the impression that she is being investigated by the US about it.

Of course she is under investigation. She was there. That doesn't mean that she did it though. The investigators have to cover all the bases.

[jmg8550]

So, are you paying them a decent wage or just taking advantage of the fact that they are possibly illegal. I'm all for people immigrating into this country, just do it through the front door. My opinion is that people knowingly hiring illegal immigrants from any country should be fined. Checking immigration status is the employers obligation. Not a personal attack, your business is yours. Just my opinion on the matter.

[Birddog1911]

Of course she is under investigation. She was there. That doesn't mean that she did it though. The investigators have to cover all the bases.

I'd say it's pretty clear that the cartels did it, when the Mexican Sherrif that was investigating the murder had his head cut off, stuffed in a suitcase, and delivered to the military garrison.

[jmg8550]

Innocent until proven guilty. The police investigating the spouse is standard procedure. I think the cartels did it too. But assuming goes nowhere.

[KevDen2005]

I agree, and pointing out to Stuart I think there was a congressperson (read it in the news and don't remember who it was because it outraged me) that immediately dismissed her story and said she is the most likely suspect. However there are witnesses on the coast that said she was being chased.

From what I understand too, for the last couple of years, when you apply for the work visa, it is denied because we have too many others unemployed that could fill the position. So those coming across illegally are not helping the situation out.
