You have a low bar for "interesting." The mayor of Cedar City, Utah? WTF? The big dog is 70 and, according to many conservatives, about to drop dead. I don't think he's going to be popping Cialis like gumdrops and chasing interns around the East Wing. Cool story though thanks to Murdoch's rag. |
No need to do research nitwit. I'm both a woman and a minority and have dealt with this harassment since I hit puberty in this and every country I've ever lived in. "Research".

Why are people so mad at illegals for stealing jobs and not paying taxes but not mad at the companies that hire them?
Two way street people... |
Umm ... undocumented immigrants who are hired by generally used forged documentation, pay into Social Security and are subject to federal and state withholding. The same is true for immigrants who are overstaying their visas. As for stealing jobs, low paying jobs as maids, custodial workers, construction cooks, dishwashers, and agricultural and livestock industries are t in high demand among citizens. |
| My East African immigrant father (Muslim!!) just told me last week he is seriously toying with voting for Trump! My mom thinks he has lost his marbles, and so do I. Like OP, he also loves Obama (African pride) and he defends him to all his white male conservative buddies at work. He said he hasn't told a soul at work about how we may vote for Trump. He is a lifelong Republican but donated hundreds to and changed his party affiliation to Democrat just to vote for Obama in the primaries after the Hillary camp tried to fear-monger with the Obama pics in traditional African cultural garb. He really hates Hillary and Bill Clinton for a multitude of reasons-most that are too complicated to get into here. |
What was your board scores and gpa/class rank? Be Honest. |
3 grammar infractions. I can see what yours was! Not the OP |
Obviously NITWIT you haven't lived in this country long enough or in DC, the city I was referring to, to know about the rape statistics in the US and before you say the majority are listed as "white" by the FBI well Hispanic is actually included in "white" with the majority of victims being hispanic too. The trend is that the victim is the same race as their attacker. Was I talking about other countries when I wrote the above post? NO. Maybe spend a little more time in the US and in DC and see how it is. |
They will work the jobs Americans are either too lazy or too "proud" to do. For example, construction is a hard job. Guess who's working in those spots? |
In my part of the country, the folks who work this jobs are those people who were born and raised in this area. Nobody here is “too proud” to work hard. |
+1. Nor does this mean that 20 million black people will make a mad dash to the polls to vote for Trump because he made a faux apology yesterday for things he has said? No way. Trump will say anything (and I mean ANYTHING) to get what he wants. |
And hillary won't

Not so fast. The undocumented do the constuction jobs Americans aren't willing to do for lowered wages and little or no job protections. It's a shame for roofers and general construction workers that they don't need licensure like plumbers, electricians, etc. so their trades weren't driven to below middle-class wage earning status. |
American workers have business expenses and expect to be paid a fair wage for their experience and skill. The undocumented workers you pay a scant wage to have no skills, less experience, and will cause mistakes that you may only uncover after you try to sell your house and realize there are infractions. |
According to every statistic I've read, 85% of the construction industry workers are American citizens. You probably have a skewed perspective because we live in an area that prioritizes illegal immigrants over American citizens. In areas w/o illegal immigrants Americans are more than happy to work construction. http://www.pewhispanic.org/2015/03/26/share-of-unauthorized-immigrant-workers-in-production-construction-jobs-falls-since-2007/ |
