More Mexican flags than American flags today?

Dont gimme that "work no one else wants to do" BS! Lots of people would do that work, just not for $3 an hour. It's called integrity!!!

A day without Mexicans. Boy they've really shown us here in Cali. The supermarket was cleaner, no loud "polka" music coming from cars in the street. I wish every day was like this......

Take all the homless in San Fransisco, put them in the fields and pay them min. wage. Yeah most veggies and fruits we be a little more expensive. But, with illegals gone and homless working, social programs will be cut, crime rates will be down, and maybe, just maybe, we can turn this economy around. I'll pay a little more for produce because I'll have more money to spend. And so will everyone else.

We have a REAL problem here in California. 70% of crime here is comitted by Hispanics. Gangs are out of control. Streets are unsafe. Hospitals are overwhelmed. The richest state in the Union is 40 billion in the hole.

They cannot live amongst decent society.....

Adios, and bash away,,,,

where are the blacks?

My wife is Colombian. I have gone through hell trying to get her here because of the immigrant problem.

You couldn't of said it any better Airways.

Most of you guys are a bunch of idiots. The reason they are demonstrating a walkout is to show the majority of you idiots that they are needed here in the USA. Without these people most of the services wouldn't get done without having to pay higher wages. And all you guys can say is screw 'em, send them back. Well, what do you think is going to happen if you send these people back?? Think about it!! That's right! the price of everything you do will shoot up; because people will no longer pay below minimum wages for services and pass these saving on to you and I.

I swear, Americans are so short sighted that all they see is a bunch of poor immigrant, no good people, coming across and don't even realize all the benefits that comes with these people willing to risk everything to just come over here and do something you wouldn't even do if you were unemployed.

Voodoo economics.

They cost more than they produce. A NET LOSS.

There are plenty of prisoners that can do unskilled manual labor, along with welfare "club" members, a la Cool Hand Luke or present Phoenix law enforcement.

I'm thinking that the use of facts and reasoned dialog is a waste as we still have a "...failure to communicate"

Have your kid cut the grass.

I saw far more American flags today than Mexican flags. But who really cares which flag they're flying... Or is it just so much easier to complain about that rather than defend your opinion?

Gentlemen and Ladies,

With all due respect, flying your American flag and/or spending your time grousing on this board is not going to do a one bit of good for you or your Country in what is rapidly evolving into a non-shooting (thus far, anyway) combination of civil war and invasion-by-infiltration.

I'd recommend that instead you write the President, both your Senators, and your Representative. Tell them plainly that you will not vote for them again unless our borders are secured, employers of illegal immigrants are prosecuted, and that illegals are identified, arrested, and deported.

If these steps aren't taken, the U. S. as we know it is on the way out.

Write the politicians and tell them the consequences of caving in on this issue. Make sure to follow through if they fail to act. Reality is that, in America, this is the only way to decisively influence policy.

Thanks for listening.

I would like to thank you for bringing this point up. I just find it mind boggling that the illegal immigrants, that are now protesting the US from kicking them out, are able to influence US law. How does that work.

Oh wait, let me see. I'm going to ILLEGALY enter France, gather 11 mil of all the illegal Americans that are there and then... we are going to change the laws of their land just by protesting.

I'm I the only one that see this as a problem. I'm willing to bet that I would be tossed out on my butt so fast my head would spin all the way back the US.

No amount of brainless flag waving and empty rhetoric will save you, unless whitey wants to start reproducing faster than his neighbors from the south. As for me, I'm riding the demographic bandwagon and learning me some Spanish! As a great man once said "You can stand in the middle of the road b!tching about the bus about to run your a$$ over, or you can get the hell out of the way" Adios amigos!

At the factory I used to work at, everybody sent their kids to college so that they wouldn't have to work at the factory when they grew up. Although I'm sure a lot of those college grads found relevant employment after graduation, even the ones that didn't, probably don't want to spend their days picking cabbage.

I am all for somebody wanting to better themself and help their family. My major problem about this whole thing is they don't pay ANY taxes! WTF
If the gov't can find a way for the illegals to pay ALL back taxes and continue to pay taxes I would have a lot less of a problem of them being here.
But for them to take a day to march on the streets of America, that our tax dollars paid for, waving Mexican flags and yelling how they want to be Americans really pi$$es me off.
Oh and one more thing. If you live or want to live in the U.S. why don't you take some of your precious ciesta time and LEARN ENGLISH!!! How the hell do we have people who have lived here for 5+ years who still don't know how to hold a conversation in english (the native language).

I could go on but those are my main concerns. As I said I am all for bettering your situation and family. But just moving to America doesn't make you an American. I think most of us may be a bit peeved by all this because the responsibilities of being an American are huge. Having/holding a job, paying taxes, rent/morgage, utility bills, credit cards, gas, car(s) etc.... and still obeying the laws of your state and federal government can be quite taxing (no pun intended) on yourself. The ones who come and get a "free" ride and don't pay their dues are the real problems.

So you're saying they ship all their food, liquor, gasoline, tobacco, oil, tires, soft drinks, etc, etc, into the country and don't buy anything here? Sales tax?

The collection of federal and state taxes is the responsibility of the state and federal governments. You know, those outfits that were supposed to keep illegals out of the country in the first place?

Under these provisions, I have to think that most of our spouses would be eligible for deportation.

You are correct they do pay sales tax, with their untaxed income.

Good point!

The reason is that rally organizers told the marchers to buy and carry American flags instead of the Mexican flags they have been protesting with the past few weeks. All to minimize the backlash building among those of us who have made significant sacrifices for the American flag. That's why I care which flag they carry.

Dudes/dudesses who sacrificed for a flag, are dumb heads. The ones that sacrificed for a nation made up of many sovereign states, are hero's.

In fact, the flag we wave today, superseded the one that WWII vets died waving. Were they fighting for that flag? Or this one...no, this one, no that one...

Come on FN FAL. It's a SYMBOL for a nation and the whole history of that nation. You know that. Don't you dare denigrate the sacrifices people have made for their countries as symbolized by their flags.
