Actually, 4th of July would be ideal....since they already are on overtime for the fireworks on the hill...then they would have to call in mutual aid from other cities.

Lucky us, it seems the numbers coming here are already picking up, again, in preparation to receive their amnesties. I wonder if this crazy glue will hold together for two more years?

They are most definitely picking up, according to the Border Patrol in Arizona.

Whoever is brainwashing these people, and making their signs, has no idea of the true history of this area.

I had a debate with someone who started mouthing off at me in a 7-11 here in Burbank. She had no idea Spain claimed the land first, then Mexico had it, then the US defeated Mexico and PAID for the territory.

I went to high school and worked in a office in Burbbamk and things have changed dramatically over the years.

I watched the Burbank City Council meeting that night on television and more than 100 Burbank residents came to protest about the day laborer center being built but Burbank's City Council members stuck up their noses, dismissed the citizen's concerns, and all but accused them of racism. At the very next election for an open seat on the Burbank City Council the citizens tossed out the city council's favorite pick for the open seat and instead they voted in a candidate who had been against building the day laborer site at Home Depot. Remember to do the same with the House and Senate members in 2006 who vote for Bush's shamnesty guestworker bill.

Can't some enterprising lawyer file a class action suit seeking an injunction and damages because they are actively aiding and abetting illegal activities?

I don't have links or anything concrete I can point you to but I believe there have already been lawsuits filed in a couple of Texas cities even before these work centers were put in place. Some of the one's in Texas aren't even near a HD or Lowe's but in sections of town where the illegals congregated.

Good question. Think about this one as well: HD has contractors it subs out to install the products it sells. The subcontractor hires an illegal who ends up harming a customer in some way. Is HD on the hook for any liability from that? Or is there fine print in HD's contracts that covers its corporate hind end?

HD's top dog was compensated 124$ million last year. Money is not a factor for them

Just curious- What was her version of the events that led to the Southwest becoming part of the US?

Just tear it down and tell Catholic Charitys to return the money to HD.

I graduated from Newton HS(Mass.) in 72. Seems like yesterday, and also like eternity at the same time.
