The worst 'good luck' card ever?

The man arrived claiming he was planning a short stay in the UK
A Mexican illegal immigrant was stopped as he entered the UK when a search of his luggage uncovered a good luck card for his "new life in the UK".

The man, arriving at Manchester Airport from Los Angeles, claimed he was on a brief visit to a friend who was opening a restaurant in England's North West.

But he admitted planning to work illegally after border officers found the card and pages of Mexican recipes.

The 40-year-old chef was removed on Friday, a day after landing in the UK.

After questioning, he had admitted a plan to bring his family out from the US to join him if he settled well in Britain.

"We will not tolerate people coming here to work illegally," said a UK Border Agency spokesman.

"People wanting to visit the UK must play by the rules. Those who do not are sent back."

Because we're not an isolated island? I doubt many of our illegal immigrants are passing through customs.

Because for some reason unlike every other country on the planet we are not supposed to stop people from entering the country any time they want to. They are not illegal, they just lack the proper documents.

Wait, was this guy an illegal immigrant in the US as well? If so, double lulz if they sent him back to mexico, and now he can't get into the US anymore either.

Because that would be racist. :p[/quote]

ridiculous news story...Well...below the border do contain latino ethnicities...why is it racist to stop people of that decent? like, are you gonna stop a White GERMAN guy when you are at the Texas/Mexican border? doesn't make sense to do so? i'm sure you get one or two non latinos who sneak to mexico and then to the US...but i still see nothing wrong with the procedures the border agents are doing...we need to protect our borders! how is it racist?

...people with nothing to do but complain...

lol


Up above
Aliens hover
Making home movies
For the folks back home

Of all these weird creatures
Who lock up their spirits
Drill holes in themselves
And live for their secrets

They're all uptight

Problem solved. Sell tickets to watch to generate revenue.

Bingo. The main reason Great Britain has survived so long is an island is very difficult to invade. First it was the Nazi's, now its the illegal aliens.

And they dont feel guilty about anything so they dont care if its a colored person they send back. They also dont have anything like and ACLU giving more help to aliens than to citizens.

That's why we need a series of fences. And a fucking mine field. Stay the fuck out!

Considering this guy had to take a plane, enter through customs to get to the UK, vs. racing across open desert and hiding amongst the flora, I'd say the two situations can't be compared.

It's no fun having to pay for them, either.

Well if this country wasn't turning into a socialist nightmare, you wouldn't have to worry about that.

The fact is that this country was founded on principles which most people seem to forget.

There isn't supposed to be SS or welfare or ANY government giveaways to protect.

Now we have full blown corporate welfare (stimulus... LAWL). Even more reason to keep out hard working foreigners and hire only fat slow lazy entitled domestic "workers".

Any more logic fail, sir?

Nazi's were the first to try to invade England?

You're an idiot. There's a cure. Get a history book or DIACF.

Your point is about as valid as a my Washington Driver's license.

So there wasn't slavery in this country?
