The Brazilians were pikers. This way you can stack ‘em at least five high. Donna’s right, this is illegal alien chic. She and I live close enough to it to see this crap first hand.
Back then there were a much smaller number, some of them were legal, and the others were afraid of deportation. Now they’ve been swept aside by a much larger wave of illegal Peruvians and Ecuadorans, and our Peruvian Day Parade dwarfs our St. Patrick’s Day Parade (for which we had been renowned in the past). At this point we’d be closing schools, dealing with high vacancy rates, etc. without them, so the government has decided to stop enforcing any immigration laws.
