Texas may be slowed down, unless Perry goes. I think he is still in bed with the Bush Boy, or rather, El Jorge...

We need someone with balls in charge of Texas; both parties seem to be on the illegal immigrant bandwagon, it's sick.

And you might get a phone call one day and be told to come and pick up granny from the local nursing home because they are closing because they cannot hire any Americans that want to go in there and feet granny and clean up her bed when she craps. So if you all think this is a good thing, we will see. IF this law is enforced with vigor, I predict it will be repealed in a year!
I'm thinking of moving to OK. We don't miss mexicans when they leave, No patriot needs them. No patriot wants them. mexico go home.

I am not anti black. I just said Detroit is a lost case as a city and that it is the worst place I have ever seen, that is is more damgerous to walk through than Bagdhad and that it has no hope for the future. Some majority black cities are actually decent (Atlanta) and others are not.

If Detroit is the worst place -- then maybe you haven't been to many cities in Mexico. Try Ciudad Juarez some time -- that place makes Detroit look like a nice calm liveable city. And Los Angeles is getting every bit as bad as Detroit - only it's not the blacks making it bad.

And anyhow -- we should be helping Americans first -- from all parts of the country and cities. Mexico is just dumping it's social problems on us as a way for it to not have to put reforms into place -- we cannot handle the social problems of our own plus all of Mexico's.

Give me a break! According to your views, the whole world might cease to exist without the Mexican invaders and tax bleeders..

I live in California, or should I say, Northern Mexico? We are the minority here and this is why people are leaving the state. I can only hope that other states follow Oklahoma's lead and start enforcing their laws. They might be in the same shape we're in if they don't.

That's strange, My GrandSIL is US born Full blood Mexican whose Ancestors were here 300 years ago when Albuquerque was established. He works in the sheet metal Heat and air industry, he says the exact oppisite of the above quote. Working mostly installing on new construction he runs into many illegal workers who either do not show up for work for various reasons, take long lunches,come back drunk, or just don't come back at all until the next day, Making them 50% less productive than legal and natural citizens who do the same work. And they (the illegals) are able to hold on to that job.

But the legal and natural citizens will lose their jobs if they are not there on time, take long lunches etc, etc. But that rarely if ever happens because the legals and natural citizens know where they stand with the boss and are resposible workers who want desperatly to hold on to their jobs.

OTOH The illegals also know where they stand with the boss and know they can do as the please because if they do lose their jobs, they can always go on wellfare, live off the country they have invaded. Just so you know, some of these illegal workers are not just Mexicans, they all have the same outlook. America is the land of oppertunity. They have it made with or without a job.
