"but if these Mexicans are "illegal" it's beside the point"

I did not specify or reference illegals.
I clearly stated in one case, the Mexicans were here under a GOVERNMENT SPONSORED PROGRAM.

That being said, It does appear that Mexican immigrants, legal or illegal, on average, have a stronger work ethic
then native born American blacks AND whites when it comes to outdoor jobs.

As I have stated on other threads, my idea is to :
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.

Oh -- I guess we had an honest misunderstanding.

You further say:

Apparently we are in agreement.

Thanks for your reply
