If it weren't for the Hispanics from Mexico, Nevada's hotel and gaming
industry would be in a world of hurt ...Just picture college students and grads cleaning the hotel rooms, scrubbing toilets, doing the laundry, bussing tables, waiting on customers...Yep, elitists really want those jobs!!

2. I don't understand this argument
So we should let illegal aliens in to scrub toilets because we don't want to do it? Isn't it more accurate to say we should let illegal aliens in because cheap money-grubbing assholes along the borders don't want to pay a living wage?

3. Come to Nevada and visit the strip and tell me how much white

skin you see scrubing toilets and floors. I live here. White people don't beat the doors down for these jobs!

Maybe I'd better take it one step further, we have alot of illegals in our town. They are largely protected by the cops and elected ones because no one wants to hurt the casino moguls from making a profit. Most of these people work 3 of these type of jobs.

4. they are in a world of hurt already. Have you ever tried to
communicate with one of the maids at any of the hotels. Virtually impossible. And, not to sound too motherly, but, two wrongs don't make a right. Americans need to fill American jobs. We should be taking care of ourselves. What, we're too fucking hoity-toity to pick up after ourselves and clean up after ourselves. What, we need people who don't speak our language to exploit. Don't they have a cast system in India with 'the unclean'?? How far away are we as a people from THAT insanity???

7. Now I've truly heard it all
If we don't let people into the country illegally, your grandmother may not be able to spend her social security check on the slots in Vegas!

The pro-illegal immigration propaganda on this board is really getting absurd.
