i had a guy tell me he didn't like that mexican immigrants fly their flag. i told him i was very proud of my irish heritage, and if i flew that flag no one would care. why is mexico different? back a hundred years ago, it was a different story, with 'irish need not apply' signs everywhere. he was a reasonable fellow, and listened to what i had to say, and i did the same. i think both of us learned a bit from the conversation.

I could care less what flag anyone wants to fly or what language they want to speak. I don't think every time I call in on a bill or visit the ATM I need to be asked whether I want it in english or spanish and I don't want any taxpayer money going to educating anyone here who is illegal. I also expect police to do their jobs and arrest people for illegal things including sneaking into the country. We complain our class rooms are full to capacity, we need jobs and by simply following the law we could improve the situation now and we wouldn't even have to HOPE just DO!
Our borders are way to open to both illegals and terrorists and until they are shored up fighting terrorism like we are now is akin to you going out and doing surveillance on someone you suspect is going to rob your house while leaving your doors wide open to anyone else. Sadly we are finally at the point we are so incompetent we are unable to track and capture a terrorist whose father tried to turn him in!
