FESK, good points. The Louisiana Purchase was another bargain as well. Seems like the Mexicans did not want to put out the sweat it takes to develope a Desert into productive land. They are making the same mistakes south of the border; waiting for foriegn money to come in and finance them so they can contract the work out to Hondurans. Only problem is, their borders and deportation laws are too strictly enforced for us to sneak over there and show 'em how!

aksjfd..hee, hee. Unless you are kidding me I suppose I can expect a 'Flock of Pigs' to come flying by anytime now. LOL.

Garamps,

Oh, pigs are flying. My dream guy has a new twinkle in his eye and all's right in your world.

Having said that, Joe should still go about this the right way. If 'they' shouldn't break the law, the Sherriff needs to be absolutely sure he isn't breaking the law. Racially profiling is wrong, shouldn't be done and is ultimately illegal. If he goes to the sites where these illegals are working and busts the white people who hired them along with the laborers, things would not only appear, but actually be fair. Both should be punished and not just the potential "victim". All his boys need to do is follow just a few of the people who pick them and fine the poop out of them. People will quit looking for their employees on the corners, no one can claim racial profiling and the illegals won't have work to find. THat's the intelligent way to handle this. No one gets sued except the brats that are hiring the illegals. As it stands now, it's only a matter of time before the city is sued and loses millions. Not to mention, racial profiling does have the propensity to make the racial divide that much worse and may endanger cops, etc.

Shhhh! Don't tell MEChA or Council of La Raza. Their entire manifesto is based on the "stolen land" fable.

Again I spoke before I gave the situation enough thought.

Joe cannot sit outside Home Depot or anywhere else that Hispanic day laborers congregate. That would be racial profiling.

He also cannot pull over someone just because they pick up a day laborer without other probable cause. If he did, he would then abound in law suites.

But it was a good idea. He can how ever, approach groups of people that are loitering. There are many laws that he has at his disposal dealing with that type of situation.

Again, I really don't wish to get into the illegal debate on this post. I would again refer to the last paragraph on the above comment.

I AGREE ABOUT THE FARM SUBSIDIES, BUT THE PROBLEM IS THAT CONGRESS DID NOT STOP WHEN THEY SHOULD HAVE. AND IT IS TRUE THAT THERE ARE FARMERS PLANTING A LOT OF CORN, SOME OF MY RELATIVES AMONG THEM. THEY STARTED DOING IT TO FEED THEIR OWN LIVESTOCK. BUT THERE IS ALSO A LOT OF CORN PRODUCT IN VIRTUALLY EVERYTHING WE EAT. AND THERE AREA LOT OF FARMERS TAKING ACERAGE OUT OF PRODUCTION BECAUSE THEY CAN GET PAID MORE FOR LETTING IT LAY FALLOW. I THINK THEY ARE GOING ABOVE AND BEYOND THE CALL OFDUTY ON THAT.

I MEANT DON'T GET ME STARTED!

NO you really don't !

How the Hell can you steal something when it's been paid for? You got me on that one. Ever since the Spanish came to North America they've never paid for anything and their ancestors continue the traditional ways. Why stop now?

Well to start with NA, Columbus was not the first white man here. And his 1492 voyage took him to the Bahamas and Cuba. After which he made three more voyages, those took him to Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands and Jamaica.

The first people here were actually Asians, or at least descendents there of. When they arrived, there were no "indigenous" peoples.

The first White men, per say, where the Vikings. Evidence of their communities has been uncovered in Newfoundland, and evidence of exploration as far down as Minnesota. This took place somewhere around 1000 AD.

My family is also indigenous to this country. As is anyone born here. One only need look up the word to understand the meaning. Of course if I go back far enough, my forefathers came from Ireland and Germany and the rest are Indian. Mississippi Choctaw.

They were very fierce fighters, but learned early on that they were in a losing battle. So they assimilated, learned to live in the White mans world. Now most of them, as their fathers before, are farmers in OK.

To start with, anthropologists have found "hard evidence" of the migration of the Asian people into Alaska and down the Pacific coast, all the way to South America. What do you have???

As for assimilation, true many of my present ancestors do not remember their native language. The culture is being lost and the history is a little fuzzy. But you know what, I really have not had much need for them. My ancestors saw that their way of life was done. You can liken it to driving on the freeway at 25 miles an hour, it's only a matter of time before you get plowed over.

There are literally hundreds of cultures that have become extinct since the dawn of time. And there are just as many more that have had to assimilate to survive.

You may fight all you want, but it's akin to beating a dead horse, trying to make him get up. It's not going to happen.

And as I see it, you have not taken back anything, you were given land (and you don't even own that, it is a government trust) called a reservation. And how many times through history has the government seen fit to redefine the borders on those?

I continue to define you and us at your obvious insistence. We are all here together.
