A wave of worry is passing through Denver's undocumented workers, some of whom fear they may come under scrutiny as the city mourns the death of a decorated detective, allegedly at the hands of an illegal immigrant.

"We're considered delinquents because we're illegal," Eduardo Burquez said. "But just because we're illegal doesn't mean we're all bad."

They know they're illegal. So why shouldn't they be investigated? Simple solution: just go home.

"We're considered delinquents because we're illegal,"..."

Just to correct the illegal who said that, he is wrong. They are delinquents. A delinquent is a person who neglects or fails to do what law or duty requires, as per dictionary definition, and failing to enter the country as both the national and international law dictate means that they are delinquents.

Gee! Ya think!

[HowardDeanScream08]

Yeah. I mean... the cops need to go looking for all those illegal Americans, too.

[AZHua87]

But the Dims have probably got a city council that has declared it a sanctuary and won't let the cops do that.

Well if the police had just declared the killer to be two white guys in a white van everything would be OK now wouldn't it?

Manuel Martinez, of Chihuahua, Mexico, said Friday that many companies in his native city have packed up and moved to China. He earned about $10 a day until the businesses folded.

Hey, Manuel. We sympathize with you. We have had the same thing happen. We have also had millions of our jobs taken by illegal immigrants, our wage rates seriously suppressed, and our health care, prisons and welfare systems overrun by the same border crashers who are "decent people".

We've had enough.

Unlike you, we have no place nearby to run, so we must take our stand here. You failed to take your stand in your own corrupt country. Instead, you decided it was easier to come here than get rid of your caudillo masters and bullying politicians. You may as well get used to the fact things are no longer going to go as well for you here as they did when you were "invisible'. After all, it is hard to hide 25 million illegal immigrants under the rugs any longer.

We're considered delinquents because we're illegal," Eduardo Burquez said. "But just because we're illegal doesn't mean we're all bad
By definition they're delinquents. It's true that they're not all bad, but because they are here illegally we don't know which ones are and which aren't.

[MRMEAN]

But just because we're illegal doesn't mean we're all bad."

Yes it does Eduardo.
