I agree with you.
IT seems everyone has their own different views and really there is nothing anyone can say to change these views because we all have had different experiences. Joselyn for you to call us racist I think may be a tad bit off. I know I am not racist. I never said I had anything wrong with a certain race. I just get pissed off when being a black person we still have to fight for our rights today and for someone who is not originally from here gets off easier than we do. It makes me feel as a black person singled out, but this is no one's fault but the governments. I have said everything I could say so I am done with this subject. This subject will never get anywhere :no:
WHAT DID I SAY THAT IS RACIST? I STICK UP FOR MI MEXICAN AMIGO'S DAMMIT.Quote:

That girl needs others to stand behind her but you all feel that the struggle has been fought for you by people of the past and therefore you quit fighting. You roll through life feeling like you are intitled to special treatment b/c you are black. Let me tell you something. You may be black in here but to some people out there you are still just a nigger." She made the whole class go out and march with me..Why? B/c in the end we are all fighting for the same cause...
BTW-There are Africans that are illegal immigrants as well as Jamaican if you want illegals sent back just know that everybody has to get checked...Including black people. Me personally, I would much rather worry about those that are killing, raping, stealing, and doing things that hurt our society than sending illegals that make minimum wage back home.... If it happens to be the illegals that are doing this..then hell send'em back!
LOL! I meant those that commented on the illegal/immigrant thing..Quote:

The problem is blamed on the Man whom ever he shall be(white,black,purple). Those that are in charge (government,bodyshop owner,contrator) are the people to blame because he the one hiring the illegals when he could hire citizens. He also could say hay if you want legal you got to pay for legals. Think about this the avg. house in Ga. is about $175k for argument sake if we get legal to build them the house would go up about another $20k or so. Ask yourself why so many people come from other states to live here in Ga. because the home,apt. are cheap versus the cost in most states in the country. So if the illegals are taken out the equation we would be paying a lot more for the work we need.
YEAH I WAS TRYING TO BE MORE AMERICAN. :gay:Quote:

Then being "American" is a culture not a specific origin. Think about it..Even white people name all of their origins when asked what they are, some say American, but most fry to differentiate by saying, "Oh my mother was Polish, my father was a Irish/Dutch mix."Quote:

If u have ever uttered any of these phrases....U have an issue with peoples background, race, culture, socio-make up...
"Damn white people"
"Fucking Mexicans"
"Dumb ass nigga"
"Fucking Asian people"
Face it if you say you havent said any of those....Jamese you are lying to yourself and should go ahead and accept it.
Oh and about not specifying race, it can be done..One of my good friends and former collegues at the AJC never specifies race...To her it isnt important and she refuses to state it in a story...So yeah, you can talk about flip flops with out saying "white." Unless of course the flip flops are white...
Obviously you don't know the definition of racist. It would be the dislike or hatred of another race which I do not fit in this category what so ever. About the flip flops topic, only race I see wearing them during the winter are white people, if I saw a black, asain, indian, hispanic, race then I would have said something about them too. Second of all, for me to be racist against blacks or whites would be completely stupid on my part seeing that's what I am. I would have to hate myself and I DON'T.Quote:

It is obvious to me no matter what I say you take it and twist it and try to make me out to be someone I am not. Like I said earlier you have your views and I have mine.
I have also noticed that no matter what I say, you get worked up...I have yet to get pissed throughout this whole thread. Bothered yes, but pissed nope. ANd yet your excessive use of CAPS and exclamation points leads me to believe that you have..If it doesnt apply to you why are you upset???Quote:

Ignorance means "not knowing" nothing more...And when I said it was ignroant it is b/c no matter how hard you try you will never see all sides of the argument...Therefore you will never "know."
I mean look at you, you are on the defensive for no reason. Why? It is merely a debate...That is all. All we are doing is stating our opinions nothing more.
Oh and I very much so do know the definition of the word racist...I have experienced it all babe...ALL OF IT....I was sexually assaulted for being inthe wrong neighborhood at the wrong time but do I hate black people? NOPE!
I was jumped in school b/c I was the only Hispanic girl...DO I hate white people? NOPE!
I was jumped by an Asian gang b/c I dated one of their members...Do ihate Asian people? NOPE!
I have been spit in the face and called a spic at a demonstration...Did I whoop that white lady's ass? NOPE!
So yes I know racism....
Have you ever heard of Timid Bigot?
Slowlybtngu, I am not a racist. I hate when people point out things they see daily done,& there's that quick flap. If you are here legally went through the process, congrads, that at least shows you want to contribute.
As Bluesclues pointed out, & as I clearly stated. " We only have a problem when the liberties illegal immigrints are abused". If you're working hard, making it, hey more power to you.
I gave exact explanaitions as to what I was exactly referring to. I said when they take jobs away from Americans, knowing full well they have no intentions of contributing then I have a problem. You say " oh take $7 & work with it", thats the part I don't like because, unless you have assistance, you aren't gonna cut it on a $7 per hour check.
You asked who's fault it is,...it's the people who hire them knowingly, to avoid paying higher standard wages, & insurance. I do not blame illegals for trying to better themselves, more power to you. But like when they had their march, they had this whole " you can't live without us", because we do all this.
I'm simply stating the reason why it's like that. Corparations are greedy, & see illegals as cheap labor, so naturally if you see an American white,black,asain,ect applying, & an illegal, they see " no insurance, no griping, more labor, less pay".
The odd thing is most of the African,Asain peopel are legal, ya'll want to be part of the USA, GREAT!!! But don't keep lumping yourselfves in these types of disscussions, because 9 times out of 10 it's not about you.....Vegeta

But it wont happen. As long as there are people willing to do it for cheap...It will get done quicker and make the contractor more money..Quote:

About the corporation thing..It is illegal to hire people without some form of documentation..When they do this they know it is illegal..I am glad some dstates fine the companies now when they find out that illegals are working there...Quote:

But not based on whether or not i am legal...I base it onthe fact that this is home and all i have ever known... The comment about most Asians and Africans is bullshit...I am sorry but I went to the most culturally diverse school in all of GA....73% of our students were illegal...21% of our school was Asian...Africans being legal...Once again, my ass they are...I have been asked on several occasions to help out my familiesfriends b/c they are not here legally....They came on a tourism pass and never left.
you daym racise people ill kill you all ..
Oh..BTW- to all that have commented....Did I say you in particular were a racist? I dont think so...If it was meant for you then I would call you name..Believe me I am very up front...In person and online.
LEAVE MY PEOPLE ALONE !!!

Everybody is missing the whole point and I know the truth hurts but here it goes.
1. Not all Illegal immigrants crossed the border.
2. Not all Illegal are Mexican (a majority yeah)
3. Companies don't hire "immigrants" because they work for less they just work harder and complain less.
4. Being familiar with the general contracting business I'm sorry to say that we DO have to pay the same taxes as a business for an illegal immigrant or a legal citizen.
5. Business are based in production not cheaper labor.
6. Some business do explode "illegal immigrant" labor but now is up to the immigrant to deal with the situation because even the department of labor gives them a hand.
7. As sorry as it sounds in our business everybody is welcome to apply but unlucky the American citizens we hire don't usually last more than 3 months and they ALWAYS have excuses to miss work or to avoid working hard.
8. Biggest reason why there is a lot of illegal immigrant labor is because a lot of American Citizens are being smart and are educating themselves seeking managing positions so someone else has to get dirty.
9. A LOT of the illegal immigrants that I'm familiar with have a TAX I.D. and they do their taxes every year like any American Citizen and actually our company requires every person to at least have a tax I.D. and proof of previous tax years revenue.
10. Unfortunately a lot of American based business do take advantage of the cheap labor that illegal immigrants offer and they become more of a harm to this country than the illegal immigrant itself.
You people need to keep in mind that a lot of this people were brought here as kids and never had a chance to become US residents. I know plenty of young teenagers who would give anything to go to college and have a career like any American but they can't because of their legal status.
Becoming a legal resident IS NOT easy and the US government does not want to provide a comprehensive bill to at least give the chance to admit hard working honest people to apply for a work permit at least and I'm sorry but it sounds to me that for the government it works better this way.
I say get rid of all illegal immigrants that are nothing but harm to this country. Get terrorist out of our land but do not punish those who just want to work to feed their kids.
BEST POST OF THIS ENTIRE THREAD. +1 dude... thank you for making it clear to these people, coming from a person that deals with immigrants. I agree. Send the terrorists, rapists, criminals and all of the such home.Quote:
