I find this particularly irritating:

"We used to feel secure here," Nicaraguan electrician Manuel Salomon told Reuters as he sipped coffee in a Mexican bakery in the city. "But it looks like that honeymoon is over.".

[Doogle]

D'uh

[capt. norm]

"We're terrified. The police could come for us at any time and deport us,"

That is GOOD news.

I am sure there are drug dealers who fear police raids, and rapists who are afraid of getting caught.

Deal with it......and leave.

"We're terrified. The police could come for us at any time and deport us,"

Arrogant bastards!

Welcome to America, Now GO HOME!

"We used to feel secure here," Nicaraguan electrician Manuel Salomon told Reuters as he sipped coffee in a Mexican bakery in the city. "But it looks like that honeymoon is over."

The honeymoon should have ended 30 years ago. Time to sober up and start paying the bills.

"We used to feel secure here," Nicaraguan electrician Manuel Salomon told Reuters as he sipped coffee in a Mexican bakery in the city. "But it looks like that honeymoon is over."

Get in line like everyone else, work hard, come here to pursue the American Dream, assimilate, become a citizen and you will be respected and looked up to.

Come here, break the law, separate yourself, demand handouts and people will be angry.

It is that simple.

[hophead]

Who says there is no good news today?

[txroadkill]

"We're terrified. The police could come for us at any time and deport us,"

God forbid that you be worried that you might get caught breaking our laws

[fatnotlazy]

The way I figure...if you are here legally and have not done anything criminal, you have nothing to fear. If you are here illegally and/or have committed a crime...well, too bad. Suffer the consequences.

[Mr. Mojo]

"The police didn't just take people with deportation orders, they took anybody"

She wants us to believe anyone that even looked Latino was rounded up? No one's buying your beans, Maria.

[airborne]

And drug dealers are fearful after drug raids.

That's the nature of breaking the law.

[fatnotlazy]

I guess I shouldn't be surprised at this piece, being that it comes from Reuters, the anti-American, so-called news organization.

[End Times Sentinel]

even from a Jack in the Box restaurant

Not the JACK IN THE BOX!!!  That's just not right!  If there's two things Jack In The Box is synonymous with, it's wholesome, convenient meals, served in a family friendly atmosphere, and sanctuary for illegals.

If what I just wrote made you sad or angry,
it was probably just a joke.

[Joe 6-pack]

I hope the homocide division doesn't start making arrests lest the murderers become fearful.

I hope the IRS doesn't start auditing people or tax cheats might become fearful....

[NonValueAdded]

"We're terrified. The police could come for us at any time and deport us ..."

Nonsense! The police cannot deport anyone who is here in the US legally. What is she all lathered up about? /rhetorical

[Doogle]

"We used to feel secure here," Nicaraguan electrician Manuel Salomon

so I guess we can determine that ole Manuel didn't get here legally either....doing another job Americans won't do...as an electrician

[L98Fiero]

Crimials are afraid of cops. That's news?

[azhenfud]

"... and now people are afraid to go out,"

It must be terrible having to constantly look over your shoulder. They just oughta get PO'ed with America, throw their hat on the floor, swear a couple of times, go home, and vow not to take that kind of abuse anymore.

"I came here to work and help support my family, so obviously the raids were alarming," Salvadoran construction worker Remberto Flores told Reuters in Spanish as he waited for a bus in a neighborhood of taco stands and wire transfer shops.

In truth, I don't blame them -- much. I blame the libs who have made circumventing our immigration laws acceptable and even profitable. I blame the politicians who can't seem to work out a reasonable way for people to come here legally (INS is a mess).

I DON'T blame the people actually enforcing the laws -- FINALLY!

[subterfuge]

This is a sympathy piece intended to make the bleeding hearts and soccer moms worry that someone is being mean to the poor down-and-outers.
