[QUOTE="soberups, post: 396680, member: 14668"] The sherriff was referring to a specific ethnic group (hispanics) when he referred to "trashy" people who "breed like rabbits." While it is [U]not[/U] true that most Hispanics work in agriculture....it [U]is[/U] true that the majority of agricultural workers are Hispanic. I see virtually no caucasian faces in the hop fields, vineyards and other farms I deliver to. It didnt use to be this way. As a teenager, I spent summers in the fields picking green beans and strawberries. I also worked on a Christmas tree farm as well as cleaning horse stables. Good luck getting today's teenagers to do this kind of work anymore. I agree that illegal immigration is a problem. I even agree that it is a crime....but the person who hires an illegal worker is also a criminal and should be treated as such. The American consumer who demands cheap goods and services at a price that only illegals can provide is also complicit in the crime. [/QUOTE]
