Forum Discussion for No Employing Illegal Immigrants

I know of a company in Maryland that harbors illegal aliens and gives them jobs knowing full well that it is illegal!! The name of the company is Kitchen & Bath Depot, Inc. and it is in ROckville, MD

Joe Jonas Lover WHO ARE YOU TO JUDGE WHO GETS TO LIVE AND DIE AND GET A JOB OR LOSE ONE YOU SCUM BAGS!!!! YOU ARE ALL STUCK IN THE OLD WAYS OF SORTING PEOPLE BY RACE OR COLOR OR RELIGION OR EVEN WHERE THEY COME FROM.....

Go Ms. Spencer!

WHAT PART OF "ILLEGAL" DON'T PEOPLE UNDERSTAND???!!I'VE BEEN OUT OF WORK FOR 3 1/2 YEARS, I'M LEGAL, A VET,AND HAVE BEEN WORKING SINCE I WAS 8 AND STILL WANT TO WORK---SO WHO SHOULD BE WORKING HERE???

So go to your nearest slaughterhouse or agrigultural field of choice, and tell the employer you are willing to work for less than minimum wage with no health care or unemployment benefits, and that of course you will be thrilled to live in substandard housing while you are at it. I'm sure then you will have a job.

Stop illegal immigrants whichever legal way we can and if we can't do it legally, change the law to make it legal. The Illegals bring crime to our cities and supply drugs to our children. They even protest our country and praise theirs, and fly our flag last and upside down. If it's that bad.then leave and don't return. Terry J. T.

How many "illegals" do you know on a personal level? Have you eaten with them, been invited into their homes, taught their children? Hmmmm, I wonder...

No, and the the other states are smart they will follow suit.we as Americans have to draw the line somewhere. we have laws and they need to be enforced.

You live in Texas, right? Texas was Mexico's until President Polk deceitfully manufactured a war, much like Bush has done in Iraq, and we got the spoils...your state, which was originally part of the United States of Mexico. Who are the true Americans? And why do we have to choose?

Good News

www.numbersusa.com reports the feds are gearing up to enforce the immigration laws. Even GW is getting on the bankwagon. Call your rep and ask them to support H.R. 4088 the SAVE Act. This would require all employers to verify their employees are in this country legally.

This should be supported by all americans. Tougher laws are required in order to stem the flow of illegals into this country. They shouldn't be allowed a haven in this country. More states should adopt the law

Immigration was actually migration until during the Bush Sr./Clinton administrations began with NAFTA, and followed with tougher border enforcement. Now many people have no choice but to stay, because it is too dangerous to migrate back and forth, following the trail of seasonal work.

That's ridiculous! It's not that hard to get yourself a greencard to work legally.

Do you have a greencard? Relatives of yours have one? Check your facts...since 9/11, it's become virtually impossible.

If I were to harbor a fugitive from justice, I would expect to be charged in some fashion. Why should someone who is knowingly helping a person to continue to break the law not be prosecuted. the key here is "knowingly" it is not going to be overyly easy to prove that the employer knew that the person was in the country illegally. Pin them to the wall...

Pin who to the wall? The "fugitives," or those who help them? And on which side would you pin them?
