When she's not cutting hair at her hair salon, Hair Masters 2000, Owner Estela Farjardo's attention is turned to the news, but some recent developments haven't settled well with her.

"Everything we do is wrong basically. You're doing this, taking the jobs; I mean basically everything, any way you look at it. We're never good for the community," she said.

Well, that's right if you enter this country illegaly, everything you do here is wrong. If you're doing good things, go to your own country and do them.

Oh the poor baby.

I got news for her. The flu isn’t the only disease coming from immigrants.

Amazing how reporters can walk into a beauty salon and find a couple of illegals and ICE is still clueless.

As for talk show hosts calling the flu a Mexican flu, pretty much the whole world agrees that appears to be the source of it.

"United States is made up of immigrants, and I think there's opportunity for everybody," Farjado said. "We just got to be united."

Nowhere in the article does it say if the business owner or her employees are here legally or not. Hmmm. And who exactly has "got to be united"? All the illegal business owners? Everyone in America?

Exactly. They come over here, suck up all our resources ie: medicaid, schools, welfare, etc. which drives up the cost of everything from health and auto insurance to the school taxes for the rest of us.

And that’s why, in a lot of cases where hard working Americans who pay for health insurance can’t afford the co-pays or deductibles that go along with it - because the prices all across the board have been jacked up to cover the illegals. And that’s really sad.

I don’t know, I’m 11th generation here in America. Is there a time limit to being an immigrant? Indians came over from Asia and possibly Europe some generations before my folks, are they still considered immigrants?

This is a prime example of the trouble facing conservatives. The MSM and the Dems are forcing this crap down our throats and adding people who think this way to the voter rolls. It’s not easy to win when the process has been polluted.

Forget the lame *immigrant* rhetoric. We're talking about ILLEGALS who are trespassing on our soil, TODAY.

I’d like to think the current administration will screw up so badly even MSM can’t ignore it.

I’d like to think that.

“Everything we do is wrong basically.”

In legal terms its called the “fruit from the poisonous tree”. However, she has reason for hope. Look at how much sympathy the gays received for spreading AIDS throughout the world. Who would have imagined that a group of deviants responsible for spreading a deadly incurable disease that has killed millions would gain acceptance instead of rejection. Perhaps if Al Qiada brought back smallpox, they too could go mainstream.

“Is there a time limit on being an immigrant?” Yes, sir, there is. That time limit is 5 seconds after you stand up and say proudly to yourself, “I AM AN AMERICAN”.
At that instant you are an AMERICAN, albeit of foreign birth, speaking mostly a foreign language while you study and learn your new tongue, still enjoying the traditional foods of your former country and culture. You are an AMERICAN at the moment you look at the AMERICAN flag with love and pride. You are an AMERICAN when you rise proudly at the playing of our national anthem.
You are an AMERICAN when while, young, you don the uniform of a branch of the armed forces, putting yourself into “harm’s way” to defend your new land.
You are an AMERICAN when you stand in silent grief as the child of a friend or neighbor is laid to rest, under the flag of your new country.
You will always be an individual who immigrated to the United States, but you are NOW and will always be an AMERICAN.
