Mike Hethmon, he is with the Immigration Reform Law Institute. He`s one of the groups backing the California lawsuit.
Mike, thank you for doing this. I`ve been saying for a long time, "Choke these companies to death." Give me the lawsuit in a nutshell and the chances of it actually winning.

Of course there are illegals coming from the South and committing crimes. Our prisons are full, but not just with Hispanic illegals.
That said, my daughter taught in an intercity school which had a very high population of both Hispanic and Somali (Muslim) students. The Hispanic students worked hard, and their parents were employed. The Somali students cursed her, got involved in riots in the hallways, and bragged about how their moms and/or dads didn't have to work, because they got welfare checks every month.
They were dumped here, courtesy of Bill Clinton, to live off our system, and they are darn proud of it. They were allowed a "prayer room" during Ramadan, ironically Christian students did not have that luxury.
I'm not condoning any illegals in our country.
I'm just saying we need to pick our battles.
Color me, "shocked"! ;)
Yes, we need to pick our battles. I agree. And we all know that we, as a nation, are capable of fighting more than one battle at a time. We have to, or we'll cease to exist as a nation. Every border, every port, every air space needs to be protected. The fact is that far more illegals do come across our southern border. That fact cannot be ignored. Ignoring it is akin to suicide, IMHO.
I agree that we have to pick our battles. A main one is the open southern border through which millions, I repeat, millions of illegal aliens have poured through. They are mostly mexicans. They are destroying our culture, medical emergency rooms, social services, jamming the jails, murdering, robbing, raping, and otherwise raising cain with american citizens ad infinitum, ad nauseum.
Yes, the constant importation of all foreigners hostile to our culture must stop immediately, but the southern border is the most crucial. If we can't get a handle on that we are done.
You make a very good point. I guess I'm torn on this issue, and appreciate this discussion. Thanks for your input.

Question, what is the difference between skirting under 18 labor laws to take a graveyard DJ shift at a radio station and a Mexican skirting the border to take a job picking vegatables, cleaning toilets, or working in 100 degree heat tarring a roof.
Why is Glenn Beck's gumption good, and the Mexican's bad? Each were trying to better their lot in life.
Folks are foaming at the mouth to secure our southern borders, while not paying much attention to those illegals coming in from Canada, and those shipped in during the Clinton administration.
Where do you come up with the idea that we are not paying any attention to the Canadian border? The posts have been about the southern border. Many of us can multi task. Be careful assuming things if you have not actually talked to the people you point fingers at about the topic (and I know you haven't discussed it with me).
Second, I taught at a school that had an ever growing population of probable illegal alien students (I say probable because we cannot know because we cannot ask). They ran the gamut from good students (a few) to wanna be gang bangers. I am SO tired of the stereotype of all illegal aliens and their children as paragons of virtue, hard workers, stellar students etc. It simply is not true. In addition, many of them required special services (not just ESL) and thus cost the taxpayers more, and took more teacher time (and as teacher time is a finite resource, it does take it away from the rest of the students in a class). I'm sorry, but your daughter sounds like she has a bias.
I wonder what battle you actually choose to pick? As for me, I would choose to have our government follow the laws they have already passed.

Is that the only post that you have read?
There are valid questions all through this thread addressed to you.
You are fortunate that there is an Internet so you can hide somewhere and not be induced in person to justify the lies that you spout like a fool.
Go back to your village as they are missing their idiot.
Mexican gumption isn't bad just ILLEGAL IMIGRANT Mexican gumption is bad or are you saying Glen Beck is an illegal alien? The difference is Glen Beck would NOT be deported but the ILLEGAL immigrant should be deported.
Shouldn't the company that hired an underage Glenn Beck to work the graveyard DJ shift also be "choked to death"(per Glenn Beck rhetoric).
Liar.
Address the questions twink.
Hmmm...what if the company didn't know he was underage?
For full disclosure, I'm a legal immigrant to the U.S. who is still in the 'green card' process, which takes many years, lots of legal fees and hoops immigration authorities make a legal immigratn jump through. Illegals face none of these hurdles and I have no sympathy for any of them. If they want to be here for work, then let them come legally. The last, Regan amnesty program flooded immigration wioth more work than they can handle and are just no starting to get caught up. With this new amnesty wave, legals like me will never get our adjustment of status.
I agree, the laws should be changed with people like you getting to the head of the line for citizenship and those who jumped the border pay a fine to keep employment in the US.
That said, what do you think of Glenn Beck who when he was under the age of 18, took a job whose work hours were prohibited by law and took away that opportunity to a person(over 18) who was legally allowed to work those hours.
You are a one hit puta.
Answer the other posts pendejo.
Post 600 and dane is still not answering the hard questions.
