Wow, she is cute!

O'Bill, you said: "Well, relax, because it it isn't going to happen. If everyone on Planet Earth except the Chinese ALL moved to the United States, we still wouldn't be as population dense as they are. Does that make it clear enough?"

Are you retracting this?

No, the statement is a simple matter of fact... and does nothing to support this ridiculous assumption:

O'Bill thinks that if our population were somehow increased by 4.5 billion people, the country would still be fine. Wow, that is about the craziest thing I have ever read.
I wrote no such thing.

She might be the explanation for his views. She is a mail order bride.

e, I guess you are referring to me.

In my defense, it is just a silly joke: no offense intended. Obviously, I don't know about O'Bill's personal life, so it is just a harmless comment.

Are you sensitive about this subject?

It would certainly help to explain the extremist views he has on immigration.

I guess I should have answered Blatham's inquiry by PM. Rolling Eyes

Such extremist views including the dichotomy of his earlier assertion that he had verified legal status of all his restaurant employees--therefore it is not necessary to exploit illegal labor and the employers can enforce the law--and his more recent assertion that restaurants wouldn't stay in business without illegal labor and we ought to accept all that come, yadda yadda.
There you go demonstrating your lack of working knowledge with logical fallacies, again. Both of those are statements of factÂ… Virtually unrelated fact, at that. Rolling Eyes
A. I said I verified paperwork and performed my legally required due diligence, not verified status.
B. Any line of business that lost a sizable percentage of their trained workforce would suffer. The laws of supply and demand would drive the costs upwards, and I happen to be acutely aware of how tight the profit/loss margin is in the industry.
C. Legalizing the workforce would eliminate the repercussions, so try to be a little more accurate when attempting to paraphrase what I say.

This bit had no business being tied to the rest of your sentence either. It is a wholly separate point. Your entire post is either very sloppy, or the work of an inferior mind.

I may have an inferior mind, Obill, but that won't change the fact that at different times you have said (paraphrased)

1) Employers did not have to hire illegals and you did not - you verified the citizenship status of all your employees
Again, for the deliberately obtuse; I did what I was legally required to do, no more. You are falsely equating this to "verified the citizenship status".

Foxfyre wrote:
2) Restaurants in this country would not survive if all the illegals were sent home
Some would not survive. This is an easily understood ramification to anyone not trying not to get it.

Foxfyre wrote:
3) You are not in favor of enforcing any of our immigration laws if it would stop people from coming here who want to be here.
This is true, but has no business being rephrased as if it's a reason for number 2). Are you really that dense? Legalizing the existing workforce would accomplish the same, so the idiotic reasoning you are attempting to ascribe to me amounts to a strawman tactic.

Foxfyre wrote:
I think I'm not alone in considering a contradiction between #1 and #2 and seeing an extremist view in #3.
Be that as it may; that provides no justification for your blatant mischaracterization of my reasoning. Rearranging what I say into positions that make you sound like you're making sense will only work if no one points out the idiocy of the tactic. Consider it pointed out.

More appropriate would be to ship the Minutemen to Iraq.

In Iraq, armed patrols would be appropriate-- or they could sit in their lawnchairs watching the foreigners do the job that the Iraqis don't want to do.

There is a downside of course. In Iraq the brown-skinned people might just shoot back at them.

It seems Americans have more compassion for the downtrodden than our A2K conservatives who want to ship them out.

Wonder who's out of touch here?
