Are you saying that these illegals have no knowledge that to come to this country without proper papers and work under fake or stolen I.D. is against the law? It simply amazes me that the pro-illegals completely exhonerate any guilt on the part of the illegal worker.

It simply amazes me of the number of people who continue to perpuate the hiring of illegal labor by the purchase of goods from corporations that actively recruit, hire and abuse this modern day slave labor.

It also amazes me how some people manage to slant and twist thoughts and words of others to the point of outright lies. That's so beckish.

We are asking the Govt to fix this problem by raiding these businesses but they are not doing it. I don't think asking the US population to quit eating is an option. We want the Illegals gone so that it drives wages up to the point an American can live off of the wage these businesses will be forced to give. That is a reasonable request.

That has become a tired, worn out cliche. That crime is a misdomeanor.

Worn out cliche?

It's the truth.
Sorry it does not fit your agenda.

Entering this or any country without it's expressed permission in a load of crap.

There is no justification or any way to call it right or minor in nature.

Any company that I find has employed illegals I don't not continue to do business with and also inform my wife which products I do not want in the house when she shops.

She is in agreement and avoids them like the plaugue.

I have also left the employ of others upon discovering illegals in my workforce.

Yes, I take action.

I take note that you admit it's a crime here.
Let it stand on the record of your disservice to the U.S. that you support this action for all to see.

How many times does it have to be repeated to you that Americans have no way of knowing what businesses employ illegals?

Lies? What lies?

Ecovlke's location is Tulsa, OK. which just happened to be a sanctuary city...that is...before Oklahoma's "HB 1804" went into effect.
So don't expect much.

Another post reminds me of the crimes that follow the initial entering of the U.S. such as the forged documents, illegal use of others Social Security numbers, dribing without insurance, etc.

Seems like it's not only a simple singular misdemeanor now does it?
The crime continues to cover the first crime.
