Scores of houses burned down and this a-hole is worried about law breakers.

GTFO and ask your own f***ing government for aid and hope.

Hmm. The times, they are a'changin.

2 years ago, we would have bent over backwards to be accommodating. Now, it's, "No papers, no help."

The fact that this is newsworthy, while disheartening, is probably a good sign.

How much more could aid could they possibly give people who are in our country illegally? This is insanity.

Cesar Chavez did not strike for the United Farm Workers so that illegals could work here. But I don’t think liberal illegal immigration fans remember that.

Perhaps the kindest thing i can say is if you decide to work in an underground economy then be prepared for the safety net shared by all undocumented workers. None.

The wineries build housing for temporary workers, hospitals are required to provide life saving treatment and many school districts provide education to their offspring. They are far from having “nothing” but with no kids they probably don’t get as much government support as others.

To me, the wineries should help out their workers if they valued them, especially if they knew they were migrant agricultural workers. No other options.

Not perfect but the rich white winery masters should help out if they benefit from their illegal labor.

********

Just re-read my post, and it sure sounds socialist to me. OTOH if the purpose if to help the downtrodden then this paper should of nominate the general public to pay out to non-citizens.

I must need a nap.

Seize the assets of these illegal alien invaders. Deport them. Give major fines to the criminals who employed them.

“They should take a bag of premium grape roots”

take?

where or whom would they take them from without stealing?

maybe you meant they should buy them or ask for legit donation of plant?

just as many people take/use supplies etc from their work place. It’s not ok.
