LAREDO â€â€

but they got it cleaning homes and baby sitting little American babbies. They are just taking it back to mexico so their families can get a little food. Ya right. dope running illegals.

Hi Sixx! BTW, thank you for your message! I heard ya! This story reminds of something. I got to know one of the illegal families in my neighborhood, before I realized they were illegal. When their four kids started bullying the neighborhood kids, I became curious and educated myself on Visas. Both parents work illegally, and I know because the mother accidently told me so!!
Anyway, oneday she showed me pictures of their big house back in Mexcio, which they apparently rent out , their dog, and family members back home who have careers such as doctors, and lawyers. It was hardly a case of "good folks comin over to put food on the table". They are the only ones in the neighborhood who drive a brand new vehicle and they are the only ones who can afford to run their kids over to Disneyworld on a regular basis.
It appears that they are visa overstayers. This story really hits the nail on the head as to what I am observing here. I think they are packing the money in to either stay here and purchase a big house in America, or to take back to enhance what they already have back home. All I can tell you is they're doing better than any of the Americans around here, who pay taxes and pay for health insurance through their employers. This is not a pretty picture, and if every citizen in America could take a look, it would be as though they sat down on a bee hive they'd wake up so fast.

I hope they use the money confiscated to get some more guards down there.
