I was wrong to attack Frankie. He has every right to have allegiance to Iran. We ARE one world, and should be one nation the world over. National borders are a farce.

A state lawmaker is coming under fire for sending what he thought was a funny e-mail message to his colleagues.

Some people do not find it very amusing and want him to make a public apology.

Rep. Don Brown, R-DeFuniak Springs, sent a message from his state e-mail account that said, "Don't forget to pay your taxes - 12 million illegal aliens are depending on you!"

Brown said the message was intended to be humorous and to remind people about the upcoming tax deadline.

He apologized and said as far as he's concerned, he's done with the issue.

But members of the Florida Hispanic Legislative Caucus are taking exception to Brown's e-mail, calling it inappropriate and saying such e-mails have no place in the Florida House.

"That term, illegal alien, is extremely insulting to many individuals and I think there has to be something a little bit more public and a little bit more contrite in his apology," an unidentified member of the caucus said.

If you don't like be called an illegal alien ( if in fact you are one)- get the **** out of this country then.

JohnnyV13 04-13-2007 08:04 PM

if you let too many people on the boat, its going to sink. I know it sucks for the people left at the harbor, but TOO FREAK'N BAD.

BTW Donger, don't give me that "put yourself in their shoes" stuff. My dad is an immigrant and I have MANY immigrant family and acquaintances. They ALL are here legally. The did it by having jobs/professions that were deemed useful by the immigration service and they applied and were admitted.

I will agree the illegals are not "evil" people. At the same time, you cannot have total open borders, or you will have overpopulation and it will end up breaking our social services.

If we lived in a world where there was no public education, public roads and hospitals required to maintain emergency rooms open to the public, fire and police services paid for by tax dollars, then perhaps open borders might not be detrimental. Instead, we live in a world where illegal aliens can demand these services.

We must keep control over how many people we allow here, and to ensure they are useful to our society.

Well, of course he was. It's Donger's thing, I caught on shortly after our first interaction. Now I like to play his game and it's a fun way to pass time.

Damn I wish I hadn't missed this, it would have been fun to smack on him for endorsing illicit behavior. See what happens when I log off for a few hours. That's it I'm not leaving again.

I have a single, non violent, non sexual, non drug related felony over 10 years ago, yet I see ILLEGAL ALIENS getting work, any work, that I would be willing to do. These ILLEGALS are treated better, with more rights, than a natural born citizen who has paid his debt to society. fuck the person of Hispanic heritages

Silock 04-13-2007 10:20 PM

Easy there, Hitler. The point of the thread isn't to espouse racist ideologies. Your situation sucks, but is it really the fault of a Mexican?

The Dude Abides 04-13-2007 10:31 PM

Uh, Yeah, it is their fault. And Hitler? Dude, I know you can do better than run of the mill generic. Why not Pol Pot? Or not enough education for that?

FAX 04-13-2007 10:43 PM

I don't understand, Mr. The Dude Abides. Are you saying that your background checks are precluding you from finding employment? If so, I consider that to be very unfortunate, indeed.

As for the Crazy Puppy Farts, is there a particular job that one of them has that you would, indeed, want?

FAX

The Dude Abides 04-13-2007 10:52 PM

Yes, Mr. Fax, every employer now has cheap or free access to criminal background checks. I am about to have to work at a McJob for $5.50 an hour, while some Crazy Puppy Fart can do construction work for $10 or $12 an hour. I would gladly take one of their jobs. They do not take jobs we dont want, thats just the propaganda.

I don't know what the entire country of Mexico conspired to get you found guilty of, but are you absolutely certain it's the fault of the ones who are here that you are in the situation in which you currently find yourself?

And Pol Pot? Please. If you wanted to impress me, you should have gone for Timur Lenk.

The Dude Abides 04-13-2007 10:56 PM

I have no desire to impress you. I take responsibility for my crime, so you can twist my words anyway you want. The point is, they are here ILLEGALY, and have better prospects for employment than a natural citizen who paid for his crimes.

I'm not trying to twist your words, man. You're being very un-Dude-like.

I feel for you. I really do. I have a couple of friends that are in the exact same situation.

However, it's not the fault of Mexicans here legally that you can't work the job you'd like. I don't have a problem with you being upset at the ones that are here illegally, either. I just don't think you should be tossing around phrases like "F the person of Hispanic heritages" so wantonly. Your situation sucks, but it's not an excuse for racism, IMO.

I completely agree with the propaganda statement, Mr. The Dude Abides. 100%. The lady who cleans my office suite has to work two jobs and combine them for a decent wage for much the same reason.

I thought that, after a time, those things were expunged from your record, I guess I was wrong. I sincerely wish there was something I could do for you, but my business isn't located there. Perhaps I'll think of something, though. Everyone deserves a chance to make a decent living.

You're both wrong and right. It depends entirely on which state you're in. The rights of felons, both working and voting and most (I think some Federal statutes exist, but I'm not 100% certain on that part) other privileges are entirely in the domain of each individual state.

Hmmm. It seems to me, Mr. Silock, that after 10 years and no further problems, a man shouldn't be precluded from work (in construction, for heaven's sake) based on a past crime. Especially if it wasn't a sex-related or violent offense.

That just doesn't feel right to me. Thanks for the information, by the way.

The Dude Abides 04-13-2007 11:07 PM

Thank you for understanding, Mr. Fax. I actually hired a lawyer for $500 and had my court date two weeks ago, but the judge and district attorney both denied my petition for expungment, on the basis that they didnt think I learned my lesson yet. Not even a speeding ticket in the last 7 years, but I guess I havent learned my lesson.

Hey, I whole-heartedly agree with you. It's silly to restrict the rights of people for things that affect them directly, like work and voting. You've either paid your debt to society, or you haven't.

The only part of his statement I have an issue with is the racism. Other than that, I'm totally with him.

Well, I look at it this way, Mr. The Dude Abides has been handed the shitty end of the flagpole and is probably a little upset by that fact. Ergo and therefore, his animosity towards the Crazy Puppy Farts who are virtually taking groceries out of his fridge is somewhat understandable.

I'm fairly certain that, if and when Mr. The Dude Abides' situation improves, so will his tolerance.

I'm white, and I get called names based on my race, thats just the nature of humans. Deal with it.

Dude, I'm not judging you, but is it their fault that you're a felon? I don't know what you did, and it really doesn't matter to me. You've paid your debt, and I'm fine with that. But are you placing the blame correctly here?

Ideally no. Still, we're all human, Mr. Silock.

Sometimes circumstances cause us to suppress our better nature. It's a natural reaction fostered by our survival instinct. Kind of like when one bad-ass monkey steals another monkey's banana. It's monkey war, man.

I call BS on that one and I am speaking from personal experience. People here would LOVE to get some of the production jobs or construction jobs, even at a low wage. Problem is they CAN'T. Why? Because crooked employers dodge the tax code by hiring illegal workers for cash. They don't have to pay benefits or employer portion taxes for those workers because "they don't exist" on the books. Meanwhile, back at the ranch, my fellow 'Ozarkians' get to stay unemployed because there are no jobs available. Don't my fellow citizens have the right to "WANT a better life"? To support their families and pay their bills? How is it that an illegal has more right to do that than our law abiding citizens? Sorry Donger, your argument doesn't add up M8.
