When I saw the headline I thought you were referring to the parasite that turns 40% of the world into jarheads and sluts.

If everybody truley wants to stop illegal immigration, then jail for those that hire the illegals would probably be a real good deterrent. I just wonder what that would do to the price of agricultural products. Sure, people will line up at a meat plant for a job, but how about picking vegetables for .35 – .40 cents a bushel?

“I’m shocked, shocked to discover illegal immigrants in California…”

Apologies to Louie.
