\_ Americans for Legal Immigration? What next, Americans for the
Safe and Legal Relocation of the Jewish People to Community
Camps? Americans for Repatriation of African-Americans to Africa?
I can't wait for these yahoos to finally get all of the illegal
labor in California deported; the farmers are going to belly-up
faster than a goldfish in your hot tub.
\_ Your contention is that 11-12 million illegals all work
in agriculture? Why has the real cost of these products
fallen? The use of illegal labor distors market
incentives and discourages technological innovation.
Furthermore, the use of illegal labor suppreses wages
of the poor, including the sacrosanct mascot minority
groups, and pushes any costs of employment onto the
tax payers. Lastly, your argument seems to be you
want a slave so you can have cheap strawberries
and lawn service - is that it?
\_ No, you silly fruit loop, my contention is that the same
people who complain, loudly, about illegal immigrants here
in the states tend to be the same hypocrites who benefit from
having the illegals here. If you reformed agriculture in
CA such that you made people pay all of their employees
a decent minimum wage, two things would happen: 1) your
food prices would go up, and 2) there would no longer be an
incentive to hire the legions of illegal immigrants who are
currently earning $2 a day because they can't cry foul to
the cops without getting deported.
\_ No, I am sorry, I don't buy that argument. Just because
I happen to want strawberries some day doesn't mean I
have to buy the entire system that brings strawberries to
my table. I am not morally required to be an activist
with my wallet, though I certainly understand such
activists. I find it interesting that the issue of
illegal immigration would lose a lot of its current
urgency with a smaller, more libertarian government
(Since the illegals wouldn't be competing for a piece
of taxation pie to which they don't add themselves,
like right now. They would just come to work and
contribute to the economy). -- ilyas |

| www.alipac.us/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=30 News on US Illegal Immigration 6 men accused of raping woman Police: Unusual to charge so many, have so much evidence KYTJA WEIR Staff Writer Charlotte Observer October 12, 2004 Six men were in custody Monday, charged with gang raping a 37-year-old wo man visiting a Huntersville home over the weekend. But Huntersville police are still looking for a seventh man. The woman, whom police did not identify, visited a trailer home in the 11 000 block of Cimmaron Road on the southwestern edge of Huntersville arou nd 9:30 pm Saturday night, said Huntersville police Lt. She was a friend of one of the men who lived there, off McCoy Road, Richa rdson said. The friend and six other men held the woman at the home for at least six hours and repeatedly raped her, Richardson said. The next morning she called police around 11:30 am and went to Lake Nor man Regional Medical Center to be treated for physical injuries. Such rapes with multiple attackers are nearly unheard of in the town of a bout 32,300 people, Richardson said. Since joining the department six ye ars ago, the lieutenant said, he hasn't seen a rape case with so many su spects -- or so much evidence. But rape has been on the rise in Mecklenburg County this year. In the fir st half of 2004, the number of rapes reported to Charlotte-Mecklenburg p olice increased 11 percent from the same period in 2003. It's unclear, t hough, how many of the 156 reported rapes were gang rapes, a term for ra pes with more than one suspect. "I believe people should be able to go where they want to go and be safe." Huntersville police visited the home Sunday afternoon to collect evidence and found the men were in the country illegally. Investigators called immigration officia ls who detained the men while Huntersville police continued their invest igation. The woman identified five of the men, Richardson said, and the sixth offe red a statement to police. They are still trying to identify and locate a seventh man who raped her, police said. On Monday afternoon, police charged each of the six men with first degree forcible rape, first degree sexual offense and first degree kidnapping, Richardson said. Also charged are Eladio Castillo Castillo, 28, who lives in Corne lius; and Alejandro Morales Suarez, 25, who lives elsewhere in Huntersvi lle, police said. |
