This doesn't address my objection. My objection is that ElsiePeaRN stated pretty clearly that she did not know the immigration status of her gardener. The salient bits of information she gave were his first name, his language skills, his rates, and the fact that he did a better job than the white guys.Fletch, Que pasa My wife is CUBAN, & she is a U.S. CITIZEN, she is here legally. We should only hired legal AMERICANS don't care the color of their skin, hair, or the car they drive.
Jeremy wanted her jailed for "aiding a criminal", when there are no facts in evidence that he was a criminal. He assumed Pedro to be illegal until he can be proven otherwise. You endorsed this position.
We don't even know if Pedro was a dry-foot Cuban like your wife. He is assumed to be an illegal from elsewhere on the basis of the scant facts above.
This is the problem I have with all of the various immigration discussions on this board. It always comes down to a large group of people saying, essentially, "all Hispanics must be presumed illegal until I get to see their papers." That seems like the very definition of racism.
