Nah, I decided I'll drink an American made beer that day... I'll call it "Day without a Gringo"...

[mistanice]

Did you know that Patron Tequila is not even sold domestically in mexcio although that's where it's made. I go to mexico to get me a bottle and i'm told it's not sold there. Hmmm, the U.S. has the sole right to sell the product.

Gobbla you are my hero! LOL;)

On your way home, just think about the road your driving on and who helped during the construction. While you're getting closer to your house, take a glimpse of the nice trimmed lawn, and think about who mowed it. While you're eating dinner, think about who picked those grapes,oranges,apples,strawberries, etc. THe problem will persist as long as American employers continue to hire illegals and look the other way.

Yah, those employers need to stop that...

But if you're trying to paint a pretty picture of illegals by who contructed the roads, cut the lawn and picked those fruits, I'm sure you can find a few murderers who have done the same things...

[mistanice]

Yeah you're correct. If you remember, there was an illegal riding the railroads a few years back. The so called "Railroad Killer," who was able to come and go into the country as he pleased. Those to blame are the officials who are responsible of protecting our borders. The manpower just isn't there.

Sure, there are going to be a few bad "apples" that come into the U.S. Let's not forget we have many illegals here that come to harm Americans. The majority of those are not even of Mexican descent. The FBI and CIA have continuously reported that there are many unaccounted foreigners in the country that are ready to make a move when called upon. How about we worry about these culprits who have the capability to do major damage.

Do you people feel safe? I sure do not. Are we supposed to feel safe just because they say the current threat level is "elevated?"

[espn1]

I think they need to let a few working girls come over. That will help me think about roads and strawberries.:D :D :D

[sinton66]

I mow my own yard, and I bet it wasn't illegals building the roads. If it was, the DOT needs their butts kicked.

[mistanice]

Yeah I mow my own too. In my area though, I see mainly mexicans running the lawn services. When I'm driving to work and back, I see mainly mexicans working on our roads who are employed by the DOT. If we want to make a difference, we definately need to start at the root of the problem. Fine the employers.

Why do Mexicans keep coming across the border? Word of mouth spreads like wildfire in Mexico. They hear from friends that there is work here and there are people who are willing to employ them.
