Okay, it's getting personal now. I'm in Virginia, right on the water, and I just saw a car with California plates and three potential illegals looking for construction work. They were asking people on the street where the work was!
Somehow, word has gotten out that contractors in Virginia are hiring illegals, because this isn't the first I've heard of it.

War tactics could wipe out Central America gangs: police

SAN SALVADOR, El Salvador (Reuters) - Central American governments could wipe out violent street gangs in two months by treating them like opponents in a war, El Salvador's police chief said on Tuesday. The tattooed street mobs, blamed for a rampage of murders, rapes and robberies and also operating in southern Mexico and in the United States, grew out of Hispanic youth gangs in Los Angeles and have around 100,000 members, police say.
"If this were a war and war concepts were applied, the gangs here would be finished in two months," Salvadoran police chief Rodrigo Avila told a local television station.
The gangs are considered to be the No. 1 security threat in Guatemala, El Salvador and Honduras. Inter-gang warfare often involves beheadings and eye gougings although human rights groups blame some killings on vigilante death squads.
"If this continues at the same rate in the region, the gang members are going to become belligerent groups that are going to endanger stability and national security," Avila said.
Police from the United States, Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, El Salvador and Dominican Republic are meeting in San Salvador to discuss ways to combat gangs in the region.
Government crackdowns on gang violence, especially in Honduras and El Salvador, pushed gang members to move to other countries, including southern Mexico, which has a porous and easily crossable border.
Many gang members have been thrown in jail and rival gangs often fight and kill each other behind bars. The two best known gangs are the Mara Salvatrucha and the Mara 18.
Well as big as a city Chicago is...we were invaded a few years back in the construction field with Day Labor camps. My spouse gets paid only for picketing these job sites (He's a Union Carpenter)for they have infiltrated the Union and steal the jobs, yes STEAL the jobs Americans were trained for and cannot get!
Can I add you to my pinglist? ;)

It's pathetic our politicians can't decide whether to protect legal citizens or illegal aliens in this country. You'd think it was a no-brainer. Evidentally the no-brainers are our politicians.
