This is a wakeup call, Americans! Our country is being taken right out from under us, and here's the proof. We need to publicize this case in particular and the situation in general all over the country. Some of our "representatives" are not representing us or our interests! This must stop! I say to them, enforce the law, or get out of town! America is not for sale or exploitation!

I wonder what's stopping the employers from hiring US citizens to do the same work for the same wages. (Could it be that these are some of those jobs Americans don't want?)

The fact that labor unions in general, and construction unions in particular, have not taken a strong stand against illegal immigration has always puzzled me.

What do you expect when a city like Santa Barbara spends tax dollars to make major improvements to the area where illegal day workers wait to be hired? They not only added bathroom and eating facilities, but they made lines on the new cobblestone area so the workers could que up for a more organized method of getting the jobs! Capps, (who I am very thankful to because she was the only one who responded to our pleas for assistance when my disabled Vietnam vet brother was being jerked around by the VA and subsequently died) isn't going to do anything about this problem because no one else is doing anything. I remember when they had paddy wagons that use to go down to that area and round the illegals up and ship them back to Mexico. That hasn't happened in many years. Now they make them as comfortable as possible and encourage their illegal behavior!

On the other hand, not all that long ago they made a sweep of a Chinese Restuarant in Santa Barbara and rounded up all the illegal Chinese working there for deportation and held the owner accountable. There is a major problem, not only in Santa Barbara and the rest of the county, but in all of Southern California. Although my husband's family has been in Santa Barbara for generations and I was there since my school days, we are now happy to be in Minnesota away from the crazy politics of California.

BTW, Lagomarsino was the best thing that ever happened to Santa Barbara county, imo. When Huffington bought that election he really let the county down in a big way. Frankly, if I were you, I would be anxious to become the new Mission County and leave Santa Barbara to their self-destructive misery!

You need to write a letter to the President of the USA. He fits your description to a tee!
