Small business owners like to point out that illegal aliens do the jobs that Americans don't or won't do, blah, blah, blah. So what?

Let's just say, for arguments sake, that every perceived advantage to illegal aliens is true; there are still more disadvantages. Name me an advantage to illegal immigration, I'll name you two to three disadvantages. Simple as that.

It's all over the state.

My jurisdiction isn't typical, we have more marijuana and psilocybin mushrooms than anything. There's meth around town though.

In the rest of the state meth is dominant. Usually because of oilfield workers and types like that.

Paul.....About your illegal immigrants, if you have seen any of the the British News over the last few weeks you would see that we have the same problem, for the same reasons.

Yes Tab,
I get some British news online and I feel real sorry for you guys.
At least this side of the pond we have a little more room :o
When I tell Americans that have never visited Great Britain that the country is the size of my home state I just get a look of disbelief.

Stay safe Bryan. :wink:

Geeeeeeee Paul, you really think I would leave you alone????? :D

Nah, I'm not gonna pick on you. You already see the problem of having illegals in the jail and the cost. Now just imagine if Congress makes it a felony, or even a misdemeanor. Your jail could be overflowing in a hurry with no funding to take care of it.

As for meth, my home area (on the Mex border) is 80% hispanic, but the meth cooks (the ones busted at any rate) are mostly white. Drug and human smuggling is a different story.

On a side note, I talked to my mom and there was very little, if any, protests in my hometown on Monday. The only thing that happened was a blockade at the border crossing and it was about the price of gas, not immigration. It just goes to show that not all hispanic immigrants were in favor of the protest. Most of the ones I know came here legally and resent the ones who didn't. Sadly, those people don't make the news.

Even the wetbacks can't swim that far.
Anyone remember the Elian Gonzalez fiasco?
The farking liberals in this country get all teared up when AID's infected Hiatiains are deported,But could not wait to send this poor kid back to Cuba.
Course we had a different president then.
One who lied to Congress and on the day of his impeachment killed a bunch of innocents in Bosnia.
This topic is starting to make me a little er.....
Well let's just say,My panties are in a bunch :evil:

Wrong!
Puerto Rico is not a state.
It is counted as a dependency.
It gets more of our tax $ than it deserves.
They pay no federal taxes but get a whole bunch of federal money.
They don't speak english and have no intention of doing so.
Been down there several times.
Most of them with any sense realise that they are better off as a depedency
Did like the music though :lol:

As I stated on another thread; by making illegal imigrant's legal, Bush solve's the problem.

It's just another way of saying "we have lost control" :evil:

Just got this from the Beeb.
The jury in the Zacarias Moussaoui trial have decided he should spend his life in prison.
Guess why I object to that. :evil:

I have to add an addendum.

The people who went on strike in the US, i.e. the illiegal immigrants, at least WANTED to be Americans and were quite happy to swear the Oath of Allegiance to the USA.
Compare that - with the people wanting to come to Britain, who have no intention of swearing allegiance to this country. And in fact are here to claim benefits and at the same time, work to de-stabilise this country by instigating terrorist acts.
Which would you want?
