[NOT THE BLUE LAMPSHADE]

When I drove to San Diego last summer I came back through AZ, NM, TX, up to MN and the whole way through AZ and NM we got stopped every hour or 2 at checkpoints. I think there may have been something going on with boarder jumpers and shit and it made the way back take FUCKING FOREVER. We tried to get to TX the first night on the way home but couldn't make it since it got so damn late with all the stops. They weren't short either, sometimes, we'd have our vehicle look inspected and what not amd it took 30 mins one time having to uload 4 peoples luggage and repack the car we were in, which was my old modded out neon. And then when they asked us where we were from and going to they were really suspicious about us going to MN. They asked us "What's in MN?" even after looking at our IDs which say where were fucking from for christs sake. I just think it's completely fucked up how you get treated in those states with all the boarder insecurities in those states and it wastes everyones time tryin to get places.

Americans will do shitty jobs. They just have to get paid a fair wage to do them. Imagine that.

I keep hearing this shitty-jobs-for-cheap argument. But what the fuck is wrong with having legal workers do the jobs for good pay?

i hope they close that school down.

Do they really think the people at the schools are illegal immigrants? Thats the stupidest bullshit I've ever heard, no way in hell someone without US papers will be able to get into a school. We had a guy try. He came over illegally and made it all the way to Bemidji and got deported within like 2 weeks of getting here after trying to get a few jobs and not having a social security number or something.

Appearently you havent been to california. Here we will give anyone an education, green card or not.
The fact that these people show such disrespect towards the country they are trying to get citizenship for is complete insanity. Fuck em, if they dont wanna live here then get the fuck out.
Think about it this way:
You bought a house and have lived in it for 20 some odd years, you bring in rommates but they pay rent and did the paperwork to get on the lease and do lots of work around the house.
Then one day someone just shows up on your couch. You dont know what hes doing there or how he got in, he doesnt pay rent, eats your food, sometimes steals your things. you cant get rid of him and you end up just getting used to the idea that he is there. but then one day you decide, hey this guy has lived here long enough, its time for him to go back to where he came from because he hasnt paid rent or even offered to get on the lease, but then once you tell him he has to go he then yells and says hes not gonna work or do anything around the house, then he pops a squat in your living room and takes a huge dump on your floor.
You then tell him "WTF are you doing?" and he replies with, "Youve never done shit for me. Im pissed because you dont ever treat me right"

I think thats about the best way i can explain this. its sad but true, these people need to Get the Fuck out if they are gonna shit on our living room floor.

Hahaha...I like that example. I'd definitely be pissed. What I dont get is why are the illegals trying have a "say" about where they stand when they're not american citizens living in America. I'm fine with the legal ones also and its the illegals that are screwing us over.

Thor, have you ever even been out of the midwest? I've lived in the south for about a total of 2 1/2 years. Illegal immigration is a problem. Exactly what Floppy said. I had 2 guys I knew, both get in accidents with illegals, and get fucked because they have no insurance. I hate when people act like they are politicians, but have no first hand experience.

Them kids need their edumacation. Apparently, they don't know their geography yet.

[Thor06]

Yep, I've been in the south (mostly AZ) on like 7 different occasions for two weeks each (grandma and grandpa used to winter down there so we'd go visit) and I've never heard anything bad while I was down there, nor had I while I was up here in MN. Remember what I was saying in my first post, everyone thinking they know everything? I guess that goes for me too. Sorry guys, my bad. ;)

There's not one job that an American would not do (unless they knew it would result in injury or death for sure) if it didn't include working for "slave wages". If we allow the illegals to keep coming in, all they are doing is diluting the work force and keeping pay wages down for the rest of us. How can you expect to get paid well when your employer knows he can replace your ass with somebody else for half the price?
