I've no use for any illegal alien and mention Hispanics because they're the only ones I've had contact with in large numbers.

aye aye, lass...noted me friend! i just found it curious that so much 'o the debate and (at times) the invective regardin' illegal aliens seems to circle 'round hispanics...heck, though they weren't part 'o me OP, they even found thar way into me thread. in 2005, the illegal aliens whose region 'o birth and entry was europe and east asia equalled the amount from mexico, yet 'tis the mexicans who seem to exclusively receive the brunt 'o the hard words exchanged here on the good ship USPOL. source : Center for Immigration Studies analysis for March 2005 Current Population Survey aye. avast ye! - MeadHallPirate |

BTW- i happen to be married to a once "illegal" Cuban citizen... I know the buttfuck of a process it takes to make them citizens... $700 for a citizenship test is like a lifetime worth of savings for some. Especially if you come from a Communist system. The fact that you call them "scumbags" just shows your bigotry. Lpfan |

Do you really think it’s accurate to compare number of illegal immigrants coming from a single country, to the combined total of two continents?!? If anything, you seem to have further demonstrated just how severe the problem is regarding illegal Mexican immigrants.

Why exactly is getting citizenship a "buttfuck"? The fact that it's $700 for the test is either (a) easily remedied or (b) easily justified. If you haven't been in gainful employment long enough to save, then maybe you're not going to contribute. |

Hail oh buccaneer! whilst of course i can see yer point, and i concede it to ye...i think its fair 'o me to say that the proportion 'o threads and harsh words meted out on our wondrous forum doesn't seem to reflect the statistical reality 'o the numbers i cited. imma 'bout to leave me home fer some work and weekend festivities, so i've not time to put the lookin' glass to me eye and search the ship's log...but if ye can find me a single feisty thread in the history 'o USPOL that decries the illegal immigration from europe or east asia, i'd be curious to read it. ayeeeee! - MeadHallPirate |

These pricks steal jobs and make 10x what they would in Mexico and they only come here for that reason. They only come here to make money, they don't come here to be "American" or embrace the American dream. The majority love Mexico and thats where their loyalty lays. I grew up in a "barrio" that was 75%+ Mexican, I know what they think and why they come here. Most of my friends parents growing up could barely speak English and housed "uncles" in the basement which of course were illegal alien workers who would only stay for a few months to make a few bucks and head back to Mexico. Its ridiculous, these folks set up shop here in America and turn American towns into Mexican villages and their gangs and crime follows them. |

Or is it, because you've made a point of sharing that your wife was a criminal Cuban, that you feel the need to start accusing people of being bigots when all those people want is for our laws to be observed and adhered to? Yes, it's hard to become a US citizen. It should be. If someone can't hack the requirements, though, the solution should not, and is not, to come here illegally...

There probably aren’t any. I don’t recall that coming up. Actually, it seems your numbers are a bit off. According to that report, from 2000 to 2005, the number of illegal immigrants from East Asia, Europe, Australia, sub-Saharan Africa, Canada, and the Middle East combined almost equaled the number of illegal immigrants that came from Mexico during the same time period. In other words, we had more illegals come in from that single country, than most of the rest of the world combined. The stats illustrate why it hasn’t come up before. Were it not for that one country, the problem would be manageable. Additionally, aside from Canada (whose numbers are at the bottom of the list), there aren’t the associated problems that arise from immigration from border states. Immigrants who come here from geographically separated homelands assimilate much better. Immigrants from border states tend to restructure the culture to that of their homeland in the area surrounding the border and extending out from there depending on their population density.

Team B is going to give you the higher quality work. The carpenters are more likey to be journeymen, so will the electricians. Then there's the roofers: a match is tough. Team B is going to be better connected if something goes wrong, or if there are other things you wish to do with the room. It's the diffrence between Nikon and Kodak: ya get what ya pay for. |

Re: illegal aliens or americans?
Quote:
Illegals generally are unskilled workers and take jobs from a good American laborer/apprentice that wants to learn and in due time will become a journey man. Hiring illegals who do labor for peanuts and then head back to Mexico while some American kid is lost is not right. Illegals are destroying this industry. |
