"Here, they let you work. Over there, they won't. There is a lot of racism, but here there isn't -- it's better," Ortiz said of Houston." That one just made me giggle.

The charge of “racism” is fast becoming useless and can be used in a variety of ways, such as “I stubbed my toe, damn racists”!

I don’t want people to take advantage of govt resources.

For me, it has nothing to do with racism. I don't want criminal illegal aliens driving on our roads without being legal residents with driver's licenses and insurance and I also don't want them driving drunk and killing my fellow, law abiding, innocent Tennesseans, either. Both of which are happening with amazing regularity here in Tennessee. Our crime rate, both violent and non-violent, here in the rural area of SE Tennessee I live in has gone up significantly in the past few years since the influx of all the criminal illegal aliens.

Just yesterday I passed two probable illegals walking down the road I live on. This is a dead end mountain road, 10+ miles from the closest town and there is nothing on this road but houses and a hang gliding site. I know everyone who lives on this road and no one hired these two. They were 4 miles up this road and I seriously doubt they were taking a scenic walk. There was absolutely no reason for them to be here, other than to be up to no good.

I really wonder how much longer it's going to be before I catch one of these criminal illegals in my living room......

the first step towards enforcement is the problem “oh he looks hispanic. Not sure if he’s illegal so I’ll be on the safe side and just not hire him.”

No, they check his credentials for the W-4 form, right?

FTA: “There is a lot of raqcism.”

Again with the “racism” charge. Scoundrels trot out that bromide whenever they can’t argue the facts. Just what “race” is an illegal immigrant? Okay, let’s narrow the question down to the nationality described in the article: Mexican. What “race” is a Mexican? Mexican is not a race, it is a nationality. And, what of hispanic? What race is hispanic? Hispanic is not a race, it is a linguistic group. But the leftist agitators like LaRaza and MEChA and the Aztlan whackos know that to trot out the “racist” charge gets attention.

“It’s become obvious that if Mexicans can’t do as they please it’s because of racism against them...just when I think I can’t get any more Mexican’d out....”

No kidding.

“...well making them enemies certainly won’t help solve the problem.”

They became enemies as soon as they crossed tghe border illegally as part of the invasion. You are either an enabler of illegal immigration or you’ve never been a victim of illegal immigrants or seen your home destroyed by illegal immigrants.

Is Governor Perry going to open welcoming stations on the Texas-Oklahoma border? He can give all the "undocumented Americans" goodie bags containing Mexican language directions to the welfare offices and maternity wards.

Yo, Ortiz, perhaps the AZ law had something to do with all those demonstrations in Phoenix last year. If so, thanks for not keeping your head down.

Texas must be a torn state. With its ultraconservative areas pitted against the liberal big cities and border areas, and a liberal governor.

well making them enemies certainly won’t help solve the problem .

Perhaps forcing them to return to where they came from and return to this country legally will help solve the problem.

And those problems are perfectly legitimate. I’ve long said I have no qualms about stating it.

I would caution that it’s not ALL Hispanic culture, it’s the culture of Central America and the fact we’re getting the poorest, most backward types.

If we were getting mass Chilean or Argentinian immigration, you’d see different results.

Just as there are many Chinese and Russian illegals but when was the last FR story posted that involved Wang Fei being arrested for killing someone while driving drunk and fleeing the scene? Or Ivan Zorlov for sexual assault of a young girl?

I’d add that while Chinese are known to stick lots of people into one house or apartment, this often takes place in urban areas in “Chinatowns” and thus we don’t see the spread of squalor, waste, noise violations and cultural degradation.

Having mass immigration with people still loyal to the homeland they left, while sharing a border with this country and doing very little culturally or policy-wise to enforce assimilation is a recipe for disaster, especially when the culture of those coming is so ill-suited to peaceful and comfortable co-existence with the dominant culture.

Oh, give me a home where the illegals roam,
Where the Dems and the liberals play;
Where never is heard a discouraging word
And the law is not enforced all day.

I don’t think it’s racist to insist on enforcement of laws already on the books long before this debate began. Illegals from all over the world always have been pursued and deported back to their countries of origin. It’s only when the federal government agrees with illegals rather than with US citizens (that the laws of the land should be enforced) that people expect to be allowed to flout immigration laws without consequences. The federal government should not be allowed to flout its own laws; if it does, then states must act accordingly. All we’re saying is that people must get in line and apply for citizenship. It is peoples’ choice whether to get their papers or to stay home and change their own countries to suit them. But those should be the only choices.

Family has just finished driving route 66 for summer vacation.
Am in L.A. where I spent quite a bit of my youth. Showing them the sights.
Have been all over the San Fernando Valley where I have seen bunches of billboards encouraging the Mexican National team in the upcoming World Cup
No mention of the U.S team
