I have just become an Arizona Diamondbacks fan. Going to hit their online store for some jerzeys worn by white bat boys.

What an idiot. Every ONE of the MLB players who aren't citizens are playing on visas. If those visas expire - per the MLB collective bargaining agreement - they don't get payed, and can't play.

If only the rest of the companies in America were so diligent with their hiring practices.

Someone tell the resident commies at MSNBC that we are in a major recession. Haven’t the leftists done enough already to attack our economy?

Psssst....

Dave Zirin wants to continue exploiting illegals. Pass it on.

Dave, baby, if they took the time to come here legally, I would be hard pressed to find anyone on FR that would complain. Quite the contrary, we would have welcome arms wide stretched.
But you forget Dave, they are here illegally. What motive do they have to live within the confines of our laws?

He is just another progressive writing words just to see them in print. I had never heard of him so guess I have not missed anything.

The State Ran Media are dupes to the Zer0 Regime. Between them, they are making sure this turns into one fat race war.

Just another crisis that is too precious not to take advantage of.

My only answer to this is tell everyone I know who will listen, go to AZ on vacation, which I already have reservations for, and give up CA wine for Swartze Katz and Blue Nun (German). I am already doing a personal boycott of the alphabet stations and NYT type newsies.I do not patronize any entertainment featuring H'wood idiots such as Alex, Babs, and friends.

Don't know if this hurts, but if I were multiplied by several million, they would know it.

Hope several million join me and hubby.
