I don't understand how you can justify criminality. We need to expunge these criminals now.
There really is no arguing with folks who refuse to see the vital role the Mexican laborer plays in our present economy. I think they walk around with blinders on. Maybe all the cubicle-bound can pretend that they don't depend on south of the border labor but anyone who works with their hand knows they are everywhere.
Are you only for illegal Mexicans or do Poles, Asians, Russians, Indians, Ethiopians count also? Part of this issue is the fact that we are only going to give all of these special rights to illegal Hispanics from mostly Mexico. Why the hypocrisy?
I do not depend on illegal labor. It is forced upon me by the lax enforcement of our laws. If I could I would go into a restaurant and ask if they have illegals there. If they said yes then I would walk out. Can you imagine the repercussions?
The part of the equation you conveniently leave out is the effect this is having on our society. I do not want to speak spanish. At all. Ever. Hispanics add nothing to my life per se. Yet, at every turn I am forced to accomodate hispanic languages, traditions and norms. Why? Why can't we ask them to assimilate into American society the way that has been done by millions of legal immigrants before?
