Ever wondered if you could find out what stupid-ass companies closed their businesses in support of illegals flaunting their violation of our laws?
Well, your humble servant found it.
Now, we have the knowledge to punish these ass-darts.
If you buy any products from these people, you are sending them the message that you support them supporting people breaking the law. Some of these companies even go so far as to conspire with mules to smuggle this "cheap labor" across the border.
Why do we put up with this shit? We should revoke these companies' business licenses, and throw their management in jail. Oh, and we should also fine them.
Once we turn off the incentives in hiring illegals, we just have to make sure we also don't just turn them into more Welfare freeloaders.
Then, they will just find their way back home.
Now, I know people who give some example of a 12-yr-old child who came here at 6 months old with their law-breaking parents. Their claim is that it isn't "fair" to the 12-yr-old to deport him with his parents. They claim that it's the only home he's known, and he might not even speak another language.
So, let's examine each part.
First, life isn't "fair". Life is uncaring, unfair, and harsh. Fairness isn't guaranteed by the Constitution. Get over it.
Next, they claim that they're punishing a 12-yr-old for the crimes that his parents commited. So? Should we not put a murderer in jail if he has a child?
OK, so, it's still the only home he knows. Again, so what? What if his parents decided to move away anyway? That's what happens to 12-yr-olds with parents who move. If he can't speak the language, maybe his parents should do some teaching.
So, sometimes kids suffer when parents do something wrong. But we are still obligated to uphold our laws.
While I care about kids (except other people's kids), we can't be subjective with laws if we want to feel compassionate. We have to enforce them, or else they will have no meaning.
And since our entire country works on the Rule of Law, if we don't enforce our laws, our entire society crumbles.
Mexicans are trying to do what they couldn't in previous wars. They are trying to conquer us by having lots of babies, and then teaching them to disrespect our society.
Will you let it happen?
If you have ideas, comments, or criticisms, tell me about it.
