Dear sir, I was personally working on a construction site in Los Angeles CA. that had many Illegal Mexicans.(they got min. wage & some got more. It's a big fat lie that they all work for less. It depends on many factors, skill level et. If they speak English it's a plus also). A black guy came by looking for work. I was in a position to influence his hiring except for one problem: NO JOB OPENINGS. He was a black American, and he certainly wanted to work.
I hope this true story helps answer your question.
You wrote: "I did not specify or reference illegals.
I clearly stated in one case, the Mexicans were here under a GOVERNMENT SPONSORED PROGRAM."
Oh -- I guess we had an honest misunderstanding.
You further say:
1. Close the border.
2. Give existing illegals a deadline to get documented and
start working to gain citizenship...the same as
Europeans and Asians. Those that do not comply get
deported. NO Amnesty!
3. No bilingual crap.
Apparently we are in agreement.
Thanks for your reply
Does this mean they refuse to speak English, or they refuse to wear oversized pants, backwards hats, and speak ebonics?
WHAT THE HELL DO YOU MEAN BY THAT? Are you implying that all black people speak ebonics and wear hip hop clothes? You are wrong. Now, go wash your sheets you under cover klucker!
The work ethic of Mexicans is 100 times better then that of American blacks.
Call me intolerant, but I hate when white people say stupid sh-t like you just said. You have a brush a mile wide to paint black people with and I bet you don't even know any real black people... like my father who retired from the post office, or my brother who owns his own graphics company, or my little brother who owns his own cleaning business, or my cousin who is a doctor, or the other who is an attorney and the list goes on and on. Not just my family but many others.
From the article:
Mrs. Williams said. "Everyone you see is Hispanics [and] it's all over this region. ... The American dream is becoming the American nightmare."
I imply nothing, but you infer a great deal. Now if you'll excuse me, I have laundry waiting......
"I bet you don't even know any real black people"
I grew up in Memphis and have known and worked with black people all of my life. I am over 60 and the last 30 years, my rural farm area was 70 percent black with only black neighbors within over a mile.
Sorry to step on your toes, but I have to report my observations, such as the USDA program that brought Mexicans
to my area for work in the cotton gins. (1995)
When I worked in Memphis (1965) some workers were paid on Monday because it was the only way they would show up after a weekend of drinking.
Because they make the bulk of this problem.
You're ASSuming a great deal.
Blacks have a great deal to lose from the catering to illegal aliens. Yet surprisingly few reactions from them so far.
lol
Brown is the new Black
;-)
That's a great idea!
I agree that it's a great idea.
Because the Armenians are all staying home.
LOL!!
As I await the English to reparate mine.
The English are waiting on the Italians/Romans, so get in line.
