I'm pissed
worked my ass on a post and the thread got locked before I could post. Imma post it here cuz I'm mad and stuff:


I see, you'll let them pick your food, and pay into the system but not have any benefits. Let me ask you a question, do you pay your taxes, SSN, and medicare/medicaid premiums? Do you sit down every pay period and write a check to the government? No, you don't, your employer does. Now, these people may be here illegally and if their employer is taking money from their pay and is paying into the system then why can't they have the benefits?

Before you answer realize this, if they are here, they are probably working, putting food on your table, watering your lawns, waiting on you in restaurants, washing your cars, and I could go on and on. Point is, don't judge until you know the facts. You obviously don't.

p.s, this thread isn't worth locking or deleting.

1. Well, at least you were able to recover the text.
The worst is when you click back and all the text is gone.

2. I saw that thread. I almost responded....then I said "Naaaah."
You wrestle with a pig, you get all dirty, the pig likes it.

That wasn't even subtle flame bait. It was clumsy, deliberate, balls-in-an-uproar baiting. He might as well have asked, "Which is better, beating your child or beating your wife?" All he wanted was a reaction.

And yes, that was crazy talk....and stupid, and uninformed...
