USA goes to WAR with mexico, ........

[tony42086]

you may want to tone down the whole 'if you are not from a border state' line of speech, it is just not true. i have lived in border states and non border states, not much difference in my line of work...you compete with mexicans in either state.

you must not be a very good carpenter. my dad lives in phoenix, formerly a sanctuary city until very recently, and has no problem finding work. he does interior renovations and remodeling: cabinets, trim, hang doors, that kind of shit (and a LOT more). he has his own business and is his only employee. he gets by just fine. don't try to pass me this 'they took our jobs' line of bs. YOU LET THEM.

i am glad you at least talk some truth: based on what i have seen personally as well, i agree that most i have worked beside value family and religion much higher than anything material. very few exceptions.

you seem so upset that you had to learn spanish to work, boo hoo, cry me a fucking river. guess what, son? soon, mexicans will be the majority and YOU will be the minority, and legally to boot, and then THEY will complain about having to learn YOUR stupid language, which is about 3000x harder to learn than spanish. any idiot can learn decent enough construction spanish in 3 weeks. quit your bitching, it is a changing world and you have to change with it or be left behind.

i bet as you sat there bleeding in the er, you made it a point to ask everyone in front of you in line (based on criticality of injury, not race or nationality or legal status, by the way) whether or not they were legal....how else copuld you state so emphatically that it was 'illegals clogging up the system' otherwise?

as far as the crime goes, crime rates hold pretty steady throughout nationalities. methinks we would see a sharp reduction in border violence if we took away their gig by ending prohibition, as so many on this site would love to see.

in any case, just wanted to pop in and point out that you have no one to blame for yourself. if you work hard, do quality work, and keep your credentials relevant (ie you should learn to speak fucking spanish if your co workers are going to be speaking it) you will have no problem making a comfortable living. if you choose to eschew personal responsibility and defer blame to the boogeymen, you are going to end up writing a huge fucking rant on a pot growing website littered with words like 'faggy' and 'pussies' and 'illegal cocksuckers'....and it is nobody's fault but your own.

have a nice day

It's sad really.....people like you are the reason this country is going in the shitter. If it doesn't effect you than fuck it right? Your line of thinking is exactly why are wages are constantly being driven down do to the ability for an employer to hire someone cheaper. Oh I can't wait when they start snagging your jobs that require degrees. Also, I'm very good at what I do thank you very much. And why should I be forced to learn their language? My grandma was pelted with rocks and called a wop because she couldn't speak our language very well when she first came here from Italy. Did she force everyone to speak Italian? HELL NO!!!! She did her best to learn the language of the land so she fit in with everyone else. Sure it was fucked up the way things were back then, but damn if she didn't learn English. Also, just because I do construction doesn't mean that it doesn't require lots of education. I just finished my electrical apprenticeship which took 5 years of work and school. I'm now a journeyman electrician and to become a master, I will have had more years of school than most doctors so...... And what kind of thinking is that? They will soon be the majority and we'll be the minority so let's bow down and cater to them and learn their language? Truly ignorant and I hope your not a registered voter. No wonder we falling like dominoes, we are a country filled with ignorant people like yourself, people who don't care unless it affects them.

no, you are not interested in knowing anything that doesn't jibe with your agenda. it's all been said a thousand times before and what you consider rights are the very entitlements that are bankrupting this country and most of europe, perverting the very concept of individualism for the sake of the hungry mob. you take the most extreme cases and treat them as the norm, all the while ignoring the waste and corruption engendered by those do-nothing social programs you so adore. all of your answers amount to nothing more than robbing peter to pay paul, short term solutions that satisfy no one and only serve to breed ever more jealousy and indignation. you have no belief in any charity that is not enforced at gunpoint and no faith in human virtues. you bend to the will of the mob and see mediocrity as the best that man has to offer. in short, you lack the courage of what few convictions you have managed to maintain and have no vision for the future beyond next week.

but don't worry, your company is legion. even the most ardent conservative seems willing to shelve his sense of personal responsibility for the illusions of comfort and security. i know perfectly well that my cause is a lost one, but i will continue to stand against the herd mentality that consumes all around me. i don't continue because of any special bravery or even because i do have the courage of my convictions. i'm simply too close to death to abandon the bits of knowledge and the insights i have gained during my life. eventually the mob will win out and darkness will descend, but there will always be someone that wants to be more than just another cog in the machine.

i imagine you'll merely scoff at this bit of lavender tinted prose, but i'm far too high to care and just another anonymous ghost floating within the web.

sorry to leave you hanging, the coast was calling and the sky was sunny. had to get out for some coast camping...

i actually was interested in knowing what entitlements you would support. still am, if you don't mind sharing.

as far as 'the illusion of comfort and security' of which you speak, try telling my bachie that the ss check she depends on on is 'just an illusion' and not a tangible means to a more secure and comfortable end.

lavender-tinted prose...you said it better than i ever could

you are doing nothing but attacking and hurling insults. i'm tired of having to delete your posts. you can stop, or you can leave. it's up to you.

 

[tony42086]

Heh.......how nice. You win. I'll learn Spanish and confirm cause that's what we're all about here: conformity. Goodbye. Oops, I mean adios amigos (better start practicing now cuz that's what we want here In the good ole USA).

no one is forcing you to learn spanish. it is a skill needed for the job. our country has no official language. most of the people talking spanish are here legally, just numbers wise.

i am very aware of how educated and SHARP people like yourself and, say, Mike Holmes are.. i apologize for taking a jab at you in my previous reply. it is not that i take the 'it doesn't effect me, fuck it' attitude, i just try to not let it effect me. it sounds like you are doing the same by putting yourself a million steps ahead of where your average run of the mill illegal is education and skills wise.

 

[abe23]

The USA doesn't have an official language.....it's true. Look it up.

Of course, the de facto official language is english, but there isn't any law making it official. We have a long tradition of multilingualism....german, french, norwegian, portuguese, polish, russian and yes....spanish too. If you include native american languages there's even more....

 

[UncleBuck]

....and while I am sure you are likely reporting me for flipping you the bird
just a "taste" of what bitterness you fork out---

don't worry, i don't report posts. you are safe. not to mention, you don't really offend me.

for the record though, some corrections:

1) america does not have an official language
2) i did not want to downplay tony's education, i was applauding him for furthering it. i don't get why that provokes you
3) actually, you did start the pm's after i repped you
4) i was not downplaying or putting the blame on your sister, just pointing out that the first people the police look at in cases like that are family and friends....people the victim KNEW beforehand
5) what better time to teach a child a second language that will be spoken by a third of our citizens than when they are most easily able to learn it?
5) i am a us citizen, born and raised here, same as my parents. i grow weed, and have no hispanic or illegal patients. if it comforts you to think of me as an illegal though, feel free
6) you still have not shown me a shred of evidence that there are 30+ million illegals here. just admit you made it up already

you're welcome

[fdd2blk]

Sorry man......I don't like being stalked online.

then just walk away.

 

[fdd2blk]

How can I when this is a passionate topic for me? I shouldn't have to tolerate personal attacks...but I'm not crying about it...just pointing out the bs.

as you attack right back.

 

[NLXSK1]

On the internet, a persons attacks are only as damaging as you let them be.

Isnt there enough drama IRL already?

 

[fdd2blk]

Is it not warranted?

i will not fall into your spiral of nonsense.

 

[fdd2blk]

...trying to follow why you're supporting this

are you talking to me?

i am not supporting anything. i am trying to get ALL of you to stop with the attacks before you ALL get banned.

now you have ALL been warned.

people always want more, if they arent getting any at home.

its not like anything REAL can happen, why get upset?

would be nice if something could happen, but does not seem like the internet is the venue for those types of exchanges.

 

[undertheice]

now you have ALL been warned.

oh boy, can i get warned too? pleeeeeease. i just love getting warned.

 

[raverguy]

oh boy, can i get warned too? pleeeeeease. i just love getting warned.

im warning u that u are going to be warned if u break the rules...

or if u make fun of me or hurt my feelings.

or if u look at me funny or even think bad thoughts...


btw.... im i warned too? dont want to get left out!

 

[Babs34]

...this isn't about simply wounding others feelings.
perhaps I should not delete my posts any longer...as some of you aren't following.
