They should be given the damn welfare in pesos! Damn freeloaders.
They can get their welfare from Mexico,Not here.
And send them back broke! LaRaza can go with them and fight for their rights in Mexico.
Ah, yes, the Mexicans. Obama’s domestic army!
I am SO VERY SICK OF THIS. EVERYTHING is translated into Spanish. EVERYTHING. It is so pathetic because it assumes all Latinos are as stupid as a rock. No woman in Target could EVER figure out that the section marked COSMETICS is the same as COSMETICAS? It has to be labeled in both languages?? It is getting thoroughly ridiculous.
I have lived in two other lands with different languages and learned by living, and became fluent in both languages, as an adult. ARE LATINOS TOO STUPID TO EVEN TRY???? This pandering is condescending, and the Hispanics seem to be lazy enough to accept the inherent insult. They sure are not complaining that an ad for corn shows a freaking PHOTO of the corn but says MAIS because no one could EVER figure out what it was without that Spanish word. Bite me.
Could it be that Mexicans of today can’t learn english? Part of my family came from Mexico many years ago. At that time, they all learned english. Maybe today they aren’t smart enough?
“La Raza”
Sounds like a Nazi group.
“Could it be that Mexicans of today can’t learn english?”
Grandpa got here in the 1930s. He spoke French, Yiddish, and bad Hebrew. In three months, he spoke English.
I moved here to be with my wife 3 years ago, faltering English from school and late nights watching Baywatch.
Read a dictionary and learned 20 words every day. Still do.
I think I do OK. Certainly better than Mexicans who have been here for years.
Pathetic.
What really ticks me off is the printing of ballots in Spanish in some areas. To attain US citizenship a person has to speak and read English and only citizens can legally vote. Printing ballots in a foreign language is inviting voter fraud.
How do you say, “eat lead” in Spanish?
Esta “dinero gratis” con señor Matteo Leskovez.
Amen!

ENGLISH must be made the official language of the US. Not only would “residents” need to learn the language to recieve aid(and you can bet your bottom dollar that they would), but the millions of dollars spent on mandated translation services at health facilities and government agencies could be saved.
Ping!
What an interesting number.
Even assuming an average family size of 4 people - not typically true for multi-family Mexican illegal alien households - that means 20 million people.
And these are just the people brazen enough to buy homes....used to be you had to prove citizenship, or disclose nationality, on the very good theory that the property of the U.S. belongs to the citizens or those they choose to share the land with.
So all the people here razzing us for pointing out that illegals in the U.S. are far higher then the ridiculous 11 million number...note that the government just admitted it.
Either that, or there's a bunch of DINKII's (Double Income No Kids Illegal Immigrants) living large in the American Southwest.
Spot on, that.
I believe I had heard that some of the foreclosures were investment properties (who would have believed that 20 years ago?) but by and large these are single family dwellings and the admission does put the lie to the 12 million number.
I don’t know if you remember the discussion 5 or 6 years ago, but even then FReepers on this topic were warning of a mortgage bust. Over the objections of the FBI, the Congress passed legislation allowing ‘people’ to use a Tax ID Number (TIN) in lieu of an SSAN to obtain a loan. At that point, some of our more prescient members saw the handwriting on the wall.
