Illegal immigrants are taking our jobs

Thursday’s demonstrations that were widely publicized by local media shows me how sorry our courts enforce our legal system. Try not paying the tax man and see where that gets you. No one likes a law that they think is unfair to them. Going with that sentiment, let’s all agree to demonstrate and block traffic in major cities for the purpose of getting laws changed that we don’t like.

Who really cares that many of those demonstrating are in violation of the laws they don’t like by being where they are right now. I do. Wouldn’t it be just great if all the people who are in the U.S. by other than legal means would go straighten out the systems where they come from and let us try to fix ours? We have enough problems with our jobs leaving without the labor from outside the U.S. coming here illegally and taking what few jobs that haven’t left.
