No one is holding a gun to their head. They come here of their OWN FREE WILL. Illegal aliens are not blameless. Just because our governement is lax and we have greedy corporations does in NO WAY justify illegal aliens doing what they do-break the law.

Geez I would love to act irresponsibly and break the law and blame it on others who are also acting unethically and breaking the law. Isn''t that the mentality of a 5 year-old? "Mommy I did it because Johnny did it too-even though it is wrong.

Let’s see…..corporations are now requiring their employees to live in squalor. The corporations send representatives into illegal alien neighborhoods and mandate the destruction of those neighborhoods. Do they also offer bonuses or paid time-off for the most squalor? Do you not realize the utter absurdity of your comment?

My son’s bedroom gets junky on occasion. I guess I can blame his school.

If the corporations didn't hire them they wouldn't be stealing your social security number -- ready to pay the IRS on what 'you' made?

I have seen more and more vehicles with Mexican license plates. I called ICE and asked how long they are able to stay and I was told 30 days. I called the police department because of a pickup with Nuevo Leon plates which had been parked on the street for several days (24 hours is the limit) - I told them what ICE said. They merely put a sticker warning on the pickup to be moved. It was moved a few feet and has now been on the street another few days.

You are absolutely correct. Without the greedy unscrupulous employers, there would be no illegal alien employment. Without our pandering government, our borders would be secure. They are responsible for the millions of illegal aliens currently in our country. However, illegal aliens are also responsible for their decision to enter this country illegally, or overstay visas; and they are certainly responsible for their behavior while illegally residing in this country.

Constantly ridiculing the illegals and spreading hate of latinos will fix that how?
I mean posting what someone has done to their own property is of no business to you people, why do you care if they live in squalor?

Haven't you seen the memos?
Of course it is the fault of the corporations! Illegals can never be held responsible for anything they do. You know that.
By the way, how did you like the trailer with the goat carcass on the roof? That was a nice touch and all. Have you seen those new subdivisions where they proudly display the Homes of Tomorrow? The illegal alien trailer park will be the subdivision of the future.

If what someone has done to their property is no one else's business, then why did you put up this link?

Have you ever heard of 'property values' or 'quality of life'? Legal citizens who are unfortunate enough to have to live in these areas suffer losses in both of those categories.

Besides, American citizens who've yet to be impacted by it deserve to get a glimpse of what they're in for, don'tcha think?

Blame the illegals for what in this case? Turning a trailer park into squalor? Give me a break, this is just hating on those folks, I have seen plenty of Americans live like this except instead of a goat carcass it is a deer carcass. Go to West Virginia I guess there is a reason those property values are so low.
