[QUOTE="soberups, post: 583031, member: 14668"] It is ignorant to assume that being [I]unable [/I]to speak English is the same as being [I]unwilling [/I]to speak English. Did the Europeans who [-]invaded[/-] moved to this country back in the 1600's try to learn the native language? I am all for enforcing border laws; and the day that the teenagers and welfare queens of this country are willing to go out in the fields in +100 degree heat to pick lettuce for minimum wage, we will be able to put up a Berlin Wall on the Mexican border to keep those "invaders" out. Until then, we need to stop denying the reality that those so-called "invaders" are simply coming here to do the work that many of [I]us[/I] are too damn lazy to do. One other thing to bear in mind; if the situation were reversed, if you and your family were hungry and in poverty, and the only hope for a decent life was to sneak across the Canadian border...you too would be "invading" a foreign country.
