Immigrant Workers? here? NO Way
Hey, what about those immigrant workers? I am a sort of liberal
bleeding heart and I am going to have to say something about this
issue. Firstly, let me ask you these three things: Why is there
so much resentment towards the people, who by my estimation are
performing jobs that nobody else wants to perform? And what does
being an American actually mean? Are you a Native American
Indian? If not, than you’re just another second, third or fourth
generation immigrant yourself, so why don’t you all relax, sit
down and enjoy of nice tall glass of shut the fuck up. If you
want to focus on the labor depletion of American jobs and the
related problems in “OUR” country please take a look at
job-outsourcing. While most of you want to build a wall around
the Mexican US border, please think about what kind of a wall you
can be built around India and China where most American jobs are
being outsourced to. The number of jobs, which nobody wants
anyway, taken by these contemptuous foreigners that you make
reference to in your post is but a fraction of 1% of the amount
of jobs being sent over seas. The only reason, other than the
fact that you’re an ignorant moron, for why you don’t talk about
this is because you don’t see them walking among you or have them
greet you at the door of that hole in the wall diner where you
frequent. Instead they are all at home spending US dollars earned
while overseas and for which they pay no revenue taxes and help
further erode the foundation and stability of our “our country.”
And if you want to pat yourself on the back because you are a
direct descendents of the early Dutch Colonist, you can also take
pride in your heritage and in the proud historical memory of how
the Dutch brought the SLAVE TRADE to the Americas. So if you
prefer, you can always take comfort in the idea that these
Immigrants, who are performing jobs that if not by virtue of
need, would otherwise only be slaves to you and your kind.
Perhaps this will help you sleep at night.

I would like to say that, in
my opinion, there is a huge difference between the terms
“Undocumented” Immigrant and “Illegal” Immigrant. The
distinction is in that the first describes an individual that
does not have a document from INS which makes him/her
“undocumented” in contrast to the second individual who brakes
one of our penal codes For example, lets say “hypothetically” I
were to gather YOU, all the members of your immediate family and
anyone you have ever loved and tie all of you to chairs arranged
in a circle so you can all look at each other. Then I proceeded,
in a clockwise direction, to beat each of you over the head with
a ball-pin hammer one-by-one every hour on the hour. This will
allow each of you one-hour to contemplate on your life in knowing
that you are next. Of course, I will save you for last. I will
want YOU to watch me carry out this “illegal” act just for being
such a racist prick. That act would be breaking one of our penal
codes and considered “illegal.” The first illustrates an
infraction of immigration rules and the latter illustrates an
actual crime, ergo considered “illegal”. I could be wrong, but I
think mass-murder is against the law. I hope that by providing
you with these two hypothetical situations as examples I have
helped you understand the difference between what is “illegal”
and the other which is considered a minor violation. I know what
you’re thinking. How wonderful It is to have me clear this up in
your mind. Well…think nothing of it. “I am an American, and I am
here to help” I believe this is what we tell people of brown skin
as we offload our troupes in foreign countries right before we
start killing them in the name of “Democracy.” If you are
seriously concerned about the stability of our economy and you
want to protect American jobs. I suggest that you take the focus
away from what we are being fed by the very people who are
sponsoring bills that make it “legal” to give away most of our
jobs as “outsourcing” to other countries. If you want to shove a
microscope up anybody’s ass it should be that of the World Trade
Organization and their corporate and republican partners. As you
know, “crime does not pay as well as politics” and these stupid
wars that drain our economy are just an extension of stupid
politics by other means. Your supposed outrage over the
immigrants is only masking the real issue of prejudice and
racism. “Welcome to America.” Do you have anything you want to
say to all those Immigrants who wear our military uniforms and
are getting killed in Iraq to preserve your right to drive a
Hummer while you shout racial slurs at Mexican Pedestrians?
Please tell them how they are not appreciated by you, the true
American and how they should all go back to their tacky Hispanic
countries. I bet that’s one job you are “dying” to have. I bet
you hate those Hispanics for taking away that position huh? How
unfair that they should take from you the opportunity to be in a
far away third-world country, squatting in a hole in the sand
while the indigenous people of that country spit and curse you
for being there. Not knowing if you will ever live long enough
to see your family and loved ones again. I am sure that if you
wanted to trade places with any of those immigrants out there
they would be happy to accommodate you. — Margariata, Buenos
I do not really think the issue was so much the
immigrants, wetbacks or whatever other racial slur you want to
use, but the security of American jobs. COMMENT: I think the
immigrants that are here who wish to be Americans in every way,
should be allowed to stay if they learn the language, assimilate
into our culture, and dress nicely. However, if you are here and
your only interest is having a job, sending US Dollars back to
your country, and you don’t give a shit about our traditions,
history, learn the language, or respect our way of life then
those individuals don’t really care enough about America in order
to secure a place as Americans. However, you have to judge each
case individually. I can’t make a blanket statement about any
group of people and simply say, by virtue of them being
different, that they are less deserving than any one of us. To me
that is not consistent with any form of sound reasoning. Only
bigoted thinkers say things like that, I would imagine. One more
thing…by including my mom you made it a “personal” thing. If you
are that sensitive, then perhaps you should abstain from entering
into any type of debate where the subject matter threatens your
confidence or if it taps into your fears and insecurities. It’s
not my fault that your last girlfriend dumped you for a guy named
Antonio Bandana. I am sure you will get her back when one of
Antonio’s semen blasts catapults her in your direction. As you
are aware this is one of the Latino attributes .
Let’s face it folks Mexican
culture is nothing in the world’s pecking order. OK OK it is
marginally above the cultures of Africa but still below that of
the worm eating Chinese. OK maybe maybe it is above Peruvian
culture and Bolivian culture but we are scraping bottom. Sal
can’t admit that. We’ve all heard of air pollution how about
culture pollution? Sal is right however when someone said if you
ain’t here legally you are illegal and ipsofacto a law breaker.
Gee and I thought this was a country of laws.
Illegal is Illegal! The same as if someone walks up to you right
now and steals your wallet. If i’ve worked in several
“”high-end” restaurants and was practically bonded to show my
proof of citizenship. Along side me is an employee with a
”nickname” not his/her real name because of legal reasons [no
''Green card etc.] then that is stealing[they're not paying
taxes]. In addition my & everyone else safety is at risk ,
because this person can be a murderer at the very least. Don’t
believe? I challenge you to enter any ”5” star eatery right now
and say you’re from immigration [gee wait that happened to a very
popular reataurant in the city recently] and you will see a
cattle call towards the door.
