All these voices were talking about how we needed to show them what we do for thos coutnry, and focused on how me clean toilets, and pick crops and all the crap no one else wants to do because it is so fvking sh!tty.

I wanted to slap the sh!t out of them:|

Like my uncle said who works at a hospital, what about the fvking ICU and OR nurses who are responsible for hundreds of lives and people with DEGREES and people who have suceeded.....are we to be relegated to a class of people who are here to pick up americas sh!t...


fvking pissed me off that they would unkowingly (or knowingly) belittle all of us so blatantly and on such a large scale....

made me feel like sH!t that this is all we were to them...fvkign janitors and feild hands:|

Yes, I feel it is very belittling. NO ONE in my family does this kind of work, but society has latinos/hispanics pegged only has field hands and grunt workers. I feel your pain.

See the thing is, people praise the doctors, nurses, and those who get a degree and work. But they dont praise those who do the jobs that seem to be low class by society.

Hey, it isn't all bad. At least you can still participate in minority programs, unlike Asians.

I don't get what you are trying to say at all. What does what they said have to do with what your family does, and how does it belittle them?

You don?t have to feel like sh@t. Most of the white right wing viewpoint is that immigration needs to be done fairly for all immigrants and not special treatment for our neighbors south of the border.

I think we should join these people in demanding that they are fairly compensated by the employers. The employers would be turning them in by the car load.

as much as i feel for the immigrants, in any society in the world, you do what you are qualified to do. If the majority of immigrants happen to be uneducated, they will get jobs requiring little education. It's part of the gamble you take when coming to a free economy.

No one with a brain is going to lump legal educated professional Hispanics in with the people who jump the border. All of the Hispanics I know are so AGAINST illegal immigration and this is one of the main reasons. They realize that if the issue is not addressed that a lot of people will simply lump all Hispanics in the same basket. If you are legal or a US born Hispanic you have as much at stake to loose as the rest of the country.

Why would they?

Just like have more white people benefits whites, having more hispanics benefits them.

But I realize that when you start talking about 'brains' I should ignore you.

They need to promote that generalization. They hope it makes America say "hhhmmmm....they are right. I wouldn't do that for such little pay".

I've yet to see a mexican picking sh!t around here. I've seen plenty doing roofing and drywall which I would gladly do. I can't afford to do it at $6/h that illegals have brought the wage down to though.

not exactly. With more people coems more variety, with more variety comes more good, but also more bad.

I don't exactly understand the western portion of the country as well as many other that live there, sicne I have only been to calli once, but fro mthe looks of it people have quite a different perception of illegal immigrants than they do here.

Elitism at its finest. As hypocritical and divisive as can be.
