"This nation of immigrants"

[Vertnut]

You win dude. Every single one of them is illegal.

Nobody said that.

When I added on to my house, I told the contractors that I didn't want any illegals working it. All of them complied except maybe the concrete guy. I don't know if his guys were all legal, but they could speak English.

Nope, every single mexican worker in the country is illegal, they just lied to you.

I have tried for years to hire "legal" crews. My brick layer was covered by Reagan, then was able to bring his parents over through him. Guys like that are pretty rare.

I guess I can swing by your next job in an ICE van, and watch for the reaction?
D.R. Horton wouldn't give a damn if 8-year-old vietnamese kids were doing their roofing.
The company owners are legal (which is who gets the checks from the big boys) but the boys on the roof are probably not going to be, just like the boys actually shoveling the concrete.

Come on Randy. There are more legals than you think doing it. Hell, how else would all the builders be able to get houses built? You drive through DR Hortons neighborhoods and all they have building, for the most part, are mexicans, and I know they are pretty stringent on their checks.

But, maybe I'm just naive.

you know its bad when the billboards and tv commercials are in spanish! the gubmnet needs more taxpayers and illegal immigrants can help pay the bill.

[scootro]

just remove the border and call it Texico

[mikec]

That would make you the only guy south of the Mason-Dixon line with American roofers. 15 to 20 years means nothing. Unless they were here in '86 for Reagan's round of "amnesty", I highly doubt it. But, again, I digress.

Same guys I have now that have been here in the states for the last 15 years. They are actually legal, believe it or not.

We don't know...yet. Besides, who would be roofing for you?

My wife and I went through the process to make her a legal immigrant. It cost several thousand dollars, medical and psych evals and I had to sign paperwork stating that she woudln't go on welfare and if she did, they'd come after me. Fuck illegals. Shoot them and hang them on pikes along the border

[line-em-up]

I see a tidal wave of illegals crossing the Rio Grande in the next few months until they close off the border. The border will be closed....never. So, you can see what effect the reform is going to have.

Plenty of room here in Australia for you guys.

Immigrate here to avoid the issues of immigration in the USA.

Has anyone actually read what it requires for citizenship?

I work with people who are other country nationals and have become US citizens. One gal in my office is from Bosnia, married a US Citizen and she is a green card holder. She is trying to get her citizenship right now. It is a fairly lengthy process and there is quite a bit of book work involved. Of course all the people that I work with that have earned their citizenship are EARNERS making six figure incomes and contribute to society.

They have all agreed that if the current admin just strokes a pen and alakazam everyone is an American they will be pissed. Not that anyone cares though.

For the record they are Pakastani, Bosnian, Macedonian, Afghani.

[Vertnut]

Fuck, really? The cocksuckers that are voting on it won't have read it when they pass it.



If they don't leave now, what would poke them hard in enough in the ass then to make them do so?

Nothing.
