No way--
They're stuck in an alternate Silent Hill... but definetly not the one created by Alessa's hate.

There was the Silent HIll that the husband looked around.
Then there was a "misty" Silent Hill--
Then there was Alessa's Silent Hill.

You mean the PS1 version?
There's no 1980s version...

What?
Even if an illegal immigrant comes here-- they do learn how to speak enough Jack in the Box to say, albiet that it sounds like this:

"Wol you like a Yambo Yack wid Sheesh?"

People say, "Learn our language!"
But really, since when do people communicate with illegal immigrants?

Only when they're doing certain business where they have to interact with people. And in always in that case, they know enough English to get the business done.

Otherwise-- no money wouldn't be made, wouldn't there?

If by "Learn our language..." you mean, "Speak English... all the time!"
I don't know what to say-- is it any of your business to listen in to a private conversation?

Being billingual myself, I scolded a costumer who had the tenacity to listen on a private conversation between my costumer and me. (I was a bank manager.)

This lady says, "You know, you shouldn't talk in Spanish because it's so rude. We're living in America, you know!"

I turned around and said, "It's rude that you're eavesdropping on our private conversation. Thank you very much, I hope my tellers are doing their very best to get right on with the rest of the day."

I continued talking in Spanish with my costumer. And after that, I talked in English with the next one.

I really got to wonder,
I live in a city with a very dense immigration population. However, it seems all immigrants know enough English to conduct whatever they need to do. Of course there are levels of fluency, but I can assure you:

If you're going to get a burger, you're gonna get somebody who knows enough English to serve it up.

You know,
With each passing generation, they tend to lose their cultural language...

Really,
this whole "Learn our Language" is pretty assinine--

Umm...
Wasn't the Mexican flag pissed on first by the other team?

But whatever...

I insist upon a balanced study because I could find you a couple studies that say the exact opposite of your claims from right-leaning Immigration interest groups, not to mention loads of anecdotal evidence that contradicts your anecdotal evidence.

Just let me find something--
I watched a segment on BBC, and it's always on Mexican news Telemundo. I've never actually read something in print, so it may take a while.
But yes-- Illegal immigrants do pay taxes because of the incentives... I'm pretty sure most people know you can pay taxes with a tax ID number...

But in the meantime, I have to ask you this question: why is it okay for Mexicans to cross the American border illegally? Regardless of the benefits, perks, or negative effects, the Mexicans should respect our national laws and wait their turn to emigrate.

I didn't say that it was okay for illegal immigrants to cross the border--
I'm just saying--

Illegal immigrants minimally apply for social services because of fear (which is true...)
And that they do pay taxes because of incentives...

Take the advice of Renton from Trainspotting...
"Who knows... it maybe wonderful."

It's an uber-cool name... When I was at SCU, White girls seems to fall for that name... "Ohh... Enrrrrrique... I love how you roll your r's."

I sport it very well...
It's just "Henry" in Spanish.

Henry
Enrique

Cool--
I've always liked Tristan too-- It seems to be in English and Spanish--

That is contrary--
Ilegal immigrants tend to not to apply any social services, the time they usually do get help is when they're so sick or hurt they're forced to emergency rooms.

Infact,
Illegal immigrants, who minimally apply social services and etcetra, contribute more because... they don't recieve these things... even if they pay taxes.

Yes,
pay taxes...

Because illegal immigrants do, now that it's been pushed for some time now, pay taxes without a social security... but a tax ID code number.

This is because with this proof-- it becomes easier to become a legal citizen.

I get to name my cousin second removed baby boy... He is going to be born on May 20th--

Anyways,
I have the honor to name the baby for my cousin because I'm going to be the godfather.

Anyways, my cousin wanted to name him after me, Enrique... But seeing that they may move over here... they may want to go for a cool bilingual name in Spanish (or Brazilian.)

I've thought about it:
Christian
Adrian
Tristan
Dorian (after my pet bird... lol)

I'm thinking Tristan sounds bad ass--

Warning: disturbing fleshy lip monster with pink dildo tongue...

Yes,
my most horrific YTMND...

Mmm...
Why is it that we suddenly care about the livelihood of people and their jobs when we're discussing about illegal immigrants,

but not when they're being outsourced to India?

And infact, I hear many people gleefully exclaim the benefits of outsourcing to India: including stimulated economy, stronger competition, etcetra...

For pratical reasons,
why don't we say that we're outsourcing jobs to Mexico?

Yes... so witty... wittay-- bad fli, bad fli... giving scathing views on the US...

Wow, that might be the sadest thing I have ever heard in my life.

When I'm going back to Mexico, I'm going to take back my Mokian doll from Thunder Cats... I was an utterly sad boy when I left it cause that was my only "store toy." My grandmother kept it for several years and displayed it with her shelves her knick-knacks. I told my aunts to NOT give it to my younger cousins-- it is MY doll.

It does sound bad... but you know... I grew up happy.
I think it gave me "character."

Oh wells--
Yes... I still "interact" with my childhood...

I bought Thunder Cats, He-Man, Duck Tales, Chip N' Dale DVD sets--
Even the old time Disney cartoons...

I still read the Horrible Histories, Goosebumps, and I still have a few of my toys... (I was poor... I made them myself-- I still have a doll I made from used GI Joe parts I found one day buried in sand at my school... Sargent Slaughter's head. Shipwreck's arms.

Thank German first, English is a derivative.

Actually--
There were several Germanic tribes... and technically, there is a high, middle, and low German subcategory.

To say that English comes from German wouldn't be 100% correct.
Because they both developed along side.

That wasn't a woman--
Look at the feet... Masculine.

Yes, a terrible deed--

Gay couples could really put a dent into this adoption problem in the US--
But I guess it's morally better to see a bastard grow up sad and unwanted all of his or her life in an adoption home instead in a loving home run by either two spinster "aunts" or two bacheuler "uncles"...

But whatever--

Plus-- it's illegal.

Calling someone a genius isn't always a compliment... It's just saying they're genius.

Hitler was a genius.
Not the best person in the world-- but a genius at what he did.

Osama bin Ladin, who has been able to elud the US for almost half a decade, is also a genius.

Not the best type of people,
but yes-- very cunning, indeed.

I thought the only role a jury has is to decide on the verdict: guilty or not guilty.

And the decision on the type of punishment (life or death) either is created by the judge or the DA...

Am I wrong?

they did pick the type of sentence then?

Actually--
Chinese is like a bunch of dialects.

English, by far, is the most common language world wide. And mostly used too.
If you're in India, a country also with several dialects that are often not understandable to people over a few towns over, use English as the common language to conduct business affairs and governmental issues.

In the airplain industry-- you need to know English if you're doing those watch towers thingie--

The homeless frequently suffer mental health problems which go undiagnosed for a long time. Family's just often "forget" them till one day... they're on the street.

You can't really compare illegal immigrants witht he poor because each side have different sets of problems and issues.

And it's not like that the homeless are homeless all the time. Some actually get out with the help of community based programs. There was one program I participated a few years back. Basically, I went around used cloth stores and bought business suits for both men and women of all sizes.

I also went around people asking for their donations of soaps, shampoos and even unfinished colognes and perfumes.

The homeless would "dress for sucess" for a job interview. They would use the address of whatever place they were staying. After they've landed a job, we helped them to obtain fair housing.

One success I'm particularily happy because I sometimes talk to this woman. Candy, who is a little wha-who in her head used to be homeless... she is still sorta nutty, but she was able to get out of her rut. She works as an administrator at a junior college, and she still helps out that program. She has a nice little apartment, clean clothes, and goes to a counselor to help her with her mental issues.

But whatever--

opps--
I used the resevered account...

So yeah...

"X-Northstar"?
Yes, yes??

So she had fajitas... what's so wrong about that?
Enjoying another's "cultural" food.

(FYI-- Fajitas and burritos were created in the United States by Mexican immigrants... perhaps by the illegal type... so technically... fajitas is not Mexican foods... while on the subject... Ceaser Salad is actually... Mexican.)

Think about it LadyGrace--
No TV. No radio.

If you're rich-- you have nothing else to do, but to read.

I have the same complaint with Chaucer... Troilus and Crisyede... Book of the Duchess...
They go on and on on really small details like the color of shadows, and etcetra.

Although, I have the same complaint with Anne Rice's later works after Memnoch the Devil--

Yes,
she went crazy after a while-- but her latest book wasn't that bad (Christ the Lord-- Out of Egypt)

Very.

I don't understand why anyone would do it, unless they're either;
• getting paid, or
• going to use this writing to get paid in the future.

I think journalism and column writing has to be gimmicky to work out well.
So, BeFell, you either need to be a Micheal Moore or Ann Coulter to pay off as a writer. Meaning: obnoxious and far sided...

But whatever...

I'm Mexican, but I have a lot of French, Spanish and Black Arabian (Moore) blood in me. I'm pretty light skinned too (you can see Fenrus' sig pic to see my pic)...

"Mexican" is a general term to describe the people from whom they decend the most powerful tribe in Mexico, the Mexica.
