They can't afford guns man, they're day laborers. That money goes towards a beer and the rest goes towards their families back in El Salvador and Guatemala...
Man, all they gotta do is flash their hand sign and their "13" watch and they've got a peice.
Fuck, if they're MS13 they'll just do you in with machetes instead.
That was pretty damn hilarious.
Guy may be an asshole but the video was delivered well.

^Truth.
Every 30 seconds to 1 minute I see a truck full of them here.
Doesn't really matter where I am or what part of town.
It is a problem but hey alot of them do good work and they are trying.
They are normally horn dogs, drive at any light with a girl in the car it's a little funny.

why the fuck are we not stringing up the HR directors and CEO's of the companies who are *paying* these people INSTEAD OF american laborers?
Now we're talkin'!
Unfortunately, part of the problem is finding decent "Americans" to do some low end jobs. My neighbor's lawn service is all Mexicans, and his yard looks great. I refused to hire them, and went with the guy who promised no illegals - they don't show up half the time, and we have to call. When they do show, they often do a half-ass job if we don't go out and make them fix things they miss before they leave. The owner says it is because he can't get good help.
FWIW, in some cases, the idea of 'hard working illegals' is becoming a myth. New, first generation immigrants are willing to work their fucking asses off. Their kids dont quite have the drive, being born into relative wealth (compared to a 3rd world nation). The hard work ethic just keeps getting diluted, which makes for a new problem. Lots of not so efficient and hardworking people, and the demand for new, want-to-work-hard illegals. BTW- i've seen this first hand working in the construction business since '00.
its a hugely problematic situation, and I personally dont know of a good solution.
I wasn't aware that the lawn service working out of the back of a guy's van had CEOs and HR reps.

well, if you lived somewhere illegal immigration was actually a relevant issue, such as california or arizona, you'd know it goes a little farther than that.
