Hispanic groups call for moratorium on work raids

Spike, If the legals had been carrying their green card or state identification there would not have been an issue. My Mother had to keep hers on her at all times - those are the rules. That's why you are issued those items - to differentiate the legals from the non.

What's that have to do with them only checking hispanics? Light skinned immigrants don't need to carry their green card?
 
I was not referring to why they only checked hispanics. I was referring to why legals were arrested. They probably asked all the people they encountered for ID and when proper ID was not provided they arrested them. Standard procedure.
But to answwer your question, they probably had a tip off that Illegal hispanics were working at the establishment so they checked the suspect that fit the description.

So are you saying that white people is not likely to be a junkie, that blacks are not likely to be drug lords or part of some criminal gang, that arabs should not be searched for links with terrorism and that hispanics are not likely to be illegal workers?

Oh, cool.

I guess you misunderstood my point. Which was that all the hispanics were separated and made to prove their status and light skinned people were not. If you're going to do it, check everybody.
 
A couple problems. In the recent raids only hispanic looking people were hassled, as if it's ok to be illegal if your skin is the right color. That means many hispanic US citizens were also were messed with in error.

Also some of the workers arrested had kids in school or legal spouses so it splits up some families.

:shrug:


I agree fully. But then, I'm an immigrant myself, aren't I. And yes, I've been checked for paperwork before ... and even refused entry back into Canada once because something wasn't clear to an immigration agent. But it's simple math, isn't it? You can check 5000 workers in a plant in Atlanta and turn up 500 illegal hispanic, 50 illegal blacks, and one illegal caucasian. Then you'll have someone else bitching about inefficiency and wasting money. Next you'll want firemen to soak houses not billowing smoke ... just in case there's a fire inside.

As for legal spouses ... I think there's already laws in place for that, isn't there?

As for kids in school ... I think there's already laws in place for that too.
 
I hate the N word...

When Snoop Dog gives it up, so should we all.


From an administrator no less. Nice.

Yea, I really hate it when forums allow their staff & clientele to say things that are un-PC.

As for the point of the thread...the problem with illegal immigration is, by far larger with hispanics than any other group. When the Irish decide, en masse, to disregard our laws, then white guys with red hair should be rounded up & checked.

You're using Snoop as some sort of moral compass? Who should other races use as the white representative? Marilyn Manson?

Racist ignorant bullshit you mean. Not the first time either.

Racist is defined as being against one race, or preferring one race over another.

You have clearly stepped up to bat to defend your Middle Eastern brethren against the American soldier.

You go first.

To quote Benjamin Franklin, "Clean your finger before you point at my spots."
