Have ya ever noticed that when a liberal talks about abortion, legality is EVERYTHING, but when they talk about immigration, it's irrelevant?

"The ski industry would fold if it were not for the illegals."

Actually, the ski industry would not fold -- it would employ legal residents. Big Sky Resort does just fine and I have never seen an illegal alien working there.

Margarita sighs and glances around the home she’ll soon be leaving. There’s the tiny Christmas tree, still perched by the window. Over there are the toys her kids should have put away before going to bed. On the kitchen counter, bamboo shoots and dishes wait to be washed. She doesn’t want to move away from this jumbled place, but she knows she has to.

These stories always start out this way: some phony character (Maria or Consuela or some such -- always a female because it draws more sympathy) bemoaning with quiet grace the indignities thrust upon her by an uncaring political juggernaut, while surrounded by the artifacts of her crushed humanity.

Why doesn't Microsoft just provide a Word template for this claptrap, then the "writers" could just fill in a few blanks and zip it off to the publisher.

So Molina said he has decided. This spring, he’s returning to Mexico.

Smart move. Talk all of your buddies into going with you.

Good point. Immigration should be rare, safe, and legal. Do I sound like a liberal now?

Some stories really do have a happy ending!

I hope he's not the only one going.

Rivera found refuge in a church basement, where she met Mireles, a 21-year-old in the same situation..... With help from some friends, Mireles and Rivera said they found a cheap apartment in Placerville, privately owned,

Oh hurray. So about a year from now, we can expect another illegitimate welfare recipient to appear in our midst.

Molina said his fake green card is worthless to extend his lease

Maybe because it's fake? (Cue the muppets on the balcony laughter) "BW-HAHAHA!"

“We’re moving to Norwood,” Margarita said in Spanish. “It’s going to be a drastic change, but we don’t have any other alternative

Here's an alternative--take a lesson from Senor Molina--go back to mexico.

Or, they’re simply packing up and moving to Ridgway, Montrose or beyond, where rents are cheaper and the private landlords don’t have to check IDs like bar bouncers.

There's no bias in this article. /s

“Some are going to change apartments and move to Montrose,” he said of the 15 companeros who crossed with him a year ago. “But if I go to Montrose, I have to get a ride or a car, and pay every day. The work is in Telluride.”

It sounds like the taxpayers have been subsidizing cheap labor for the rich people in Telluride.

This reporter is a total idiot. Where do they find these people? Don't they need to have at least basic critical thinking skills to get a job? Aren't there any adults in charge at that newspaper?

I would whine about being forced to prove I am who I say I am. If I wanted to rent an apartment, that's between me and the renter. Then again, there shouldn't be subsidized housing anywhere in the first place. The illegals shouldn't be here but I'll be damned if the government is gonna get itself all up in my personal life.
