Just a couple of random thoughts about this post....
Is there a political action group that will take care of the children of drug dealers caught in a drug sweep? I don't mean Social Services.
I have mixed feelings on the "they're taking our jobs" line. On one hand I have been in Arizona and seen the "Now Hiring" signs on the farms. Not a white face in that crowd. So the dude who is picking lettuce/tomatoes/okra/melons in July sure as hell isn't taking a job away from anybody I know. That falls in the category of jobs that you couldn't pay me enough to do.
Now as far as carpenters go, down here in 93 they were all white and black. I don't know many of either now, they are all Hispanic, non union and will work anywhere for less than most. None on the shrimp boats though.
