Will the FR OBL make an appearance on this thread????
Hmm...but of course people like Garaldo will say that being Illegal is not the problem.
Never mind that this guy's BAL was 3 x normal level or that this wasn't his first brush with the law and he should have been deported long ago -- or that it appears (at least to me) Mexican's see nothing wrong with drinking and driving as more and more American's are dying from being struck by illegals driving drunk with no insurance or drivers license.
Flash.....who the heck is the FR OBL?

Much to my chagrin, my family were among the first to start hiring illegals (mojados) back in the late 60’s. I asked my father and my uncle what the deal was and they repsonded that with all of the ‘whites’ getting, and living off of welfare, there weren’t enough Americans willing to work as hard as the illegals.
I didn’t care at the time as I was about to go off t SE Asia and kill Godless Commie Bastards, but three years later I was back and working in the family bidness.
Here’s what I saw. We had a whole fleet of flatbed trucks going around the nursery and a crew would assemble the plants to fill an order. Ever so often, one of the drivers would rev the engine so high he would damage it.I would fly into a rage and be ready to hit the b@st@rd up along side of the head until either my father or uncle would remind me that 1) this wasn’t the Army, and 2) most of these guys had been driving a burro cart a year before, and 3) I should go easy.
They were making the same excuses for this 35 years ago.
And yes, I said why don’t we pay more and get Americans to work for us. We tried it. It was a disaster. The Americans we could get at a competitive pay scale were a bunch of STD-ridden, dope-smoking, throw-abouts that were as much trouble to deal as the Mexicans.
I got out of it in ‘75 and have never hired, ‘knowingly’ an illegal since.
The son, Ariel, grew up here in southern New Hampshire. Graduated from Amherst, NH, high school in 2003:

“The extent of Clark’s success in Hollywood wasn’t widely known in Amherst.
“I had Ariel in class for a year, but I didn’t know that his father directed (‘A Christmas Story’),” said Souhegan principal Scott Prescott, who taught Hanrath-Clark pre-calculus. “We knew he was somewhat successful, but Ariel didn’t play it up much.”
“While at Souhegan, Hanrath-Clark played in the jazz band and was involved in musicals and other plays, said Prescott.
“He was quite well-rounded and bright, really passionate about learning,” said Prescott, who noted that Hanrath-Clark graduated from Amherst Middle School two years ahead of the usual math track. “He was a pretty gifted student, actually.”
“According to a report in the Los Angeles Times, Hanrath-Clark had studied music at Santa Monica College and was intent on scoring music for films and video games. The article said he was a part-time dealer at a casino – no surprise to those who knew him at Souhegan, where his senior yearbook comments include references to “card counting” and “card tricks.”
