I love illegal latinos, I don't want them to go anywhere!

I get my grass cut by one every week for like $20, and it's a pretty big yard.

And they installed hardwood floors for like $300 dollars...chits a good deal, Home Depot wanted like $1,000

THIS IS PART OF WHATS WRONG WITH AMERICA!

what? There is nothing wrong with undercutting the competition...offering a great deal because they circumventing those pesky tax laws, and having absolutely no medical because all of them are uninsured along with their work, and they only accept cash so I can't build my credit by putting it on a credit card.

but ohhh well, now i'm breakdancing on hardwood floors and my doggy has a fenced yard = )

I'll agree with this. I'm down with any form of tax circumvention.

I know of a fellow who does marble work. He is an immigrant but is more of the legal variety.

But he is on IA. Which counts for something I'm sure.

I would actually prefer it if they are illegal, for some reason I feel that they put more....whats the word, "desperation" or "desire" into their work because they probably won't make rent or feed their babies without it.

I feel like I can trust them more to do quality work as well because I can be all like "hey fuckers! chip chop chip!...I got INS on the phone!" I like that, makes me feel more empowered with my money.

pronto!...el est gunna get arresto compadre, comprendo?

I don't think that trying to enforce immigration law is the problem. The problem is how it's done. What does it mean to be under suspicion of being illegal? It's too vague and many people worry that it will translate into: if you look hispanic or don't speak english well enough, you will be detained longer than an "American" looking person so they can verify you are here legally

Simply put, this means there is a great potential for US Citizens and Legal Aliens to be treated differently based on their heritage/looks. Many people feel that is unfair. If the law required all people to be checked it would be fair but that's not how the law is written.

"THe only way the police can ask someone to prove citizenship is if they are stopped COMMITTING ANOTHER CRIME. THEY CANNOT WALK UP TO RANDOM PEOPLE AND SAY "SHOW ME YOUR PAPERS".

If this is indeed the case, why stop only at Hispanics? I would implement it across the board. Furthermore, it should have been a standard procedure long ago.
