I don't think its anything from that cesspool to our south, but what I think drives this is that America at this point in time suffers from cheap labor decadence as the Romans did as they grew into empire. The employers I talk to speak of illegals as a commodity, example, "I gotta get some Mexicans." And we have to admit that a large amount of Americans seem addicted to cheap services such as lawnmowing, nannies, car washes, fast food, ect., ect.. We will pay because their is a bill coming due.
Protect our borders and coastlines from all foreign invaders!
Be Ever Vigilant!

Please, let's not use the enemy's language here. No one has ever been shot BY a gun. People are shot BY other people WITH a gun.
Moreover, that 47,000 includes criminals shot by cops and by people defending themselves.
I realize, CHARLITE, you're just posting something and the language isn't yours, but it's important we speak and write correctly.
OC Register ran an article today: "More Brazilians arrested in Texas." Says US authorities arrested nearly 150 Brazilians who got into Texas illegally from Mexico this week. It says the arrests "brought the number of Brazilians caught crossing fom Mexico to 15,428 since the start of the fiscal year Oct. 1, up from 8,629 in the whole of fiscal 2004."
Article doesn't state where or how they were arrested.
I'm getting really sick of reading this cr@pola in the newspaper. Gotta put it down. :(
Thanks for the pings..gotta get caught up on the news here.
Great article BTW.
