I don't support illegal immigration, but your statement does fairly credit the Mexican protests we've seen.
In America, the poor protest because they want work even if they're doing it illegally. In France, the rich protest because they want to retain the old law that allows them to sit on their lazy asses and get high.
The people protesting in France I wouldn't call rich. They started off in France doing what the Mexicans do here. Cheap labor the lazy Rich French wouldn't do. Now those immigrants are demanding rights like the ILLEGAL immigrants in this country are.
My statement should have been clearer.....I was refering to the SIZE of the "protests" not neccessarily the reasoning.... ;)
