There are millions of people who walk and drive illegally every day, and our police haven't cited them at all.

Do you actually think jaywalking laws are stringently enforced? There's a reason we are using them as an example. I think I probably saw over 100 people jaywalking in the course of a 10 minute walk to work today.

That's criminal alien.

But the New York Times think all those terms are sooooo mean .....

You hiring illegal aliens to work is the government's business and not just yours because it is against the law. I see, so most all Americans are dumb, lazy expensive and entitled brats. If that is your opinion of Americans then why don't you move your busiiness to a foreign country? We don't need disloyal Americans likeyourself here (that is if you are an American).

I'm not advocating jaywalking laws be eliminated because some people aren't happy with the level of enforcement by their local cops.

Well, if I hire known jaywalkers or speeders, is that the government's business? Those things are against the law, too.

As has been pointed out, you are not frothing at the mouth over jaywalkers, but they are violating the law.
Jaywalkers when caught get a citation and rightly so. You can't be serious comparing American jaywalkers to the raping of our country by illegal foreigners, can you? You're really grasping at straws now. It simply amazes me how desperate the pro-illegals are getting these days up to including making ridiculous analogies about Americans. At least the American jaywalker has a right to be here and I expect all American lawbreakers to be punished for their crimes also.

Jaywalkers almost NEVER get "caught" because authorities don't waste their time enforcing those laws.

And yet you are in here sympathizing with CRIMINAL jaywalkers even though they are BREAKING THE LAWS OF THIS NATION.

Yet you keep making statements like the bolded without proving these claims. I mean, rape is a pretty strong word.
