It's like a burgular suing the police department for arresting him as he carries out a television set from a electronics store. How dare they arrest him?

Illegals deserve nothing and should have been dancing in there loins that they were able to get some American's job for a while.

Illegal immigrants should not be able to file a lawsuit against anyone or any entity.

It does seem absurd that the illegal immigrants are sueing Wal Mart. But then again, U.S. lawyers seem to be ready to try anything. However, if companies did not employ illeal immigrants, there would be less incentive for them to cross the border. You cannot blame imigrants for wanting to better their lives by taking sh*tty jobs.

NYC is perhaps the biggest double standard city beyond California. Take a look in the kitchen of whatever restaurant you dine at this week. The help all looks the same.

There are also countless ethnic restaurants oh-so-pleasing my tastebuds on the back-breaking labor of illegals. Each country rotates illegals in and out their restaurants' doors, making them work long hours and low pay. When one leaves, there is always another waiting. A vast network exists to make this possible, and someone not unlike a slave owner is smiling widely.

Is there a connection with the Dem-dominated NYC political machine and illegals?

This is the dumbest thing I have ever heard {and I have A LOT of co-workers}. I'd love to hear every single politician running weigh in on this.

Amnesty my ass. Quit your bitching and go home. Obtaining citizenship can't be impossible, after all, don't all of you know someone who wasn't born here but now belongs here legally?

Laziness and law breaking shouldn't be rewarded. Ever. Let's round those illegal ingrates up and send them back HOME.

You must realize that we are not dealing in theory because theory is clean, practical, and logical but we are dealing with real people with all thier complications.
Some people always have the clean and simple answer to all the problems and these answers sound good in a sound bite but in real life are never quite that easy.
When it comes to human issues most people who think this way seem to be on the conservative right end of the spectrum.

Unless you can find a way to take the heart and compassion out of all our INS and Border Patrol people and staff those agencys with Gestapo like stormtroopers then your solution is not going to work. Because you realize these people will be breaking up familys with children, pregnant women and the elderly involved...And sending them back to a place where they might be homeless, will be poor and destitute.

In the grand scheme of things I think Walmart is legally wrong for hiring them. I can't really find fault in people trying to work. If there are taxes to be paid (and they should be paid!) it should come from Walmart who was knowingly saving money by hiring illegal immigrants.

It is kind of a strange lawsuit but the workers might be getting fined for the taxes they should've paid.

Well let's see...put a bunch of LEGAL CITIZENS on the streets to help some person's family in Mexico. Wow, Paul, that sounds awfully compassionate of you.

I can speak first-hand on this, as I have several LEGAL CITIZEN friends of mine who are struggling to get small jobs in Austin to pay the bills and feed their family--and they can't get any because Pedro the Illegal Immigrant is filling the slots so he can send money to his family in Mexico. Pardon me if I sould a little dispassionate here, but we should be focusing our attention on THIS country--and then lending a hand to our neighbors. You don't casually starve your own children so that the person next door has a nice meal, do you?

I understand that there are starving families in Mexico and all across the world. But we also have starving citizens here and they should take our highest priority--once they do, charity can proceed beyond the national borders.

Two Dragons,

But how do you get rid of many of the illegals without showing a total lack of compassion? That's my point.
In theory your solution is fine but how do you carry it into reality?
Make an INS worker do it? There jobs are already depressing as it is.

My solution is to let migrant workers stay here legally (and in some cases their non-working family members). Employers should have to give legal citizens preference in hiring but can hire migrant workers if those positions can't be filled with legal citizens. Also make migrant workers pay income taxes.
