You got that right! We have a LEGAL Mexican lady working for us who is one of SIXTEEN children. In addition, she has three, one of her sisters has six, another sister has seven..... do the math...

Take note of the ones that are running away....and send the trucks for them when they return!



Businesses should also take note of who is not at work, and fire them. It's the same rule I have with my teen daughters....you want to run away? While you are gone the locks on the house are getting changed, don't come back.

" Immigrants are afraid of going to work, of taking their kids to school, of leaving the home. People are not going to important medical appointments. There are pregnant women canceling their prenatal care appointments because they feel immigration will be waiting for them there.

They should be. Illegal immigrants are not supposed to be working without a work permit, it's against the LAW. And they should NOT be sending their kids to school at MY expense.
They should not be going to medical appointments at MY expense

"Some immigrant advocates see an eerie reversal of the groundswell that emboldened tens of thousands to take to the streets in protest last month, and a frightening glimpse of the future if Congress enacts pending measures that would require the local police to enforce federal immigration law and add criminal penalties to what are now civil violations.

What does this writer not understand about the word ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT??

What is so "frightening" about the future? It's a RELIEF that something is finally being done about the ILLEGAL immigrants who break the law, commit FELONIES by sneaking into this country, commiting FRAUD by using fake SS numbers, and fake ID's.
These are NOT just simple "civil violations".
This writer needs to read and understand the LAWS in this country. But I guess facts are never high on the list at the NYT's.
Too bad the NYT doesn't hire illegal immigrant reporters for a dollar a day. I bet we will at least get better journalism.

"And I'd bet the order to "not disturb" came from the WH.

Unless you can back that up, the cheap shots are beyond old."

No one has to back up anything they say about Mr. Bush these days. Some of us have had up to here with his compassionate conservative carp. The man loves big government. His only saving grace is that the Left is even worse.

What gets me about all of these stories on this exact subject is that mothers are pulling their kids from school. Why are my taxes paying for illegals to go to school?!

The reason the illegals are so terrified is that they can't believe the gringos have been so stupid for so long.

If this was Mexico and they were illegals from elsewhere they would either be deported or learning the joys of Mexican prison life.

We should not return illegals to their country of origin imho.

Send the Mexicans to the Dominican Republic and the Dominicans to Mexico.

That will end illegal immigration in a hurry!

arnold is up for re-election. you are right, nothing. I was told by a salesman at my business to be sure I was closed on Monday.

THIS IS ECONOMIC TERRORISM. It is being approved of by the State of California.

I heard that ICE has joined with the Klan under Senator Byrd (who will be donning his sheet again) and will be rounding up latinos for rope parties.

Reports of illegal alien roundups were reported in the local news, earlier this week, not just the NYT.

Much ado about nothing, cause the govt. ain't gonna do anything to corral and deport these illegals.
Way to go there republicans in the majority, that's standing up for law and order. That's taking a stand for the real Americans.

In other words, you are just going to post graphic after graphic, none of which support the suggestion that the WH is giving a do not disturb order.

He has to. His handlers won't let him do anything else with it.
