Former Washington Post Reporter: My Life as an Undocumented Immigrant

It's funny that breaking certain laws bring out the indignation of people that others don't.

Can't we send all our speeders and tax cheats to Mexico, too?

 

Anyone who's ever filled out a not-just-for-shits-and-giggles NCAA bracket, too.

 

Cursed in public, spit on the sidewalk, not paid taxes on internet purchases...

 

News organizations love to ask questions -- and hate to answer them:

 

If I get a cease and desist letter from the copyright holder, you're damn sure I'm going to take it down.
Obviously you would not.
Bottom line - follow the letter of the law or don't. You can't make up exceptions because this guy is doing well for himself.

 

You don't need to get a cease and desist letter to violate copyright. If that's the case, the reporter isn't an illegal immigrant because he hasn't been caught.

BTW, did you call the cops on your wife for pulling a knife on you once? No exceptions. She belonged in jail.

 

Illegal immigrants in journalism ...


I guess that explains why the wages are so low.

 

LOL. A little needed levity.

And, WTF to Stitch's last post.

 

Jesus, man. I'm not sure you need to call attention to that.

 

Just imagine how immigrants feel when there lives are changed in an instant, including when families are split apart.

An interesting sidenote is the LDS Church's stance towards illegal immigration. The church supports the Utah Compact, which among other things, states local law enforcement should focus on criminal activities and not civil violations of federal code. It's not sitting well with some conservative LDS lawmakers who are gung-ho about clearing illegal immigrants out of the country.

Actually, legally, she wouldn't have been tried. With her blood sugar so low, she wasn't in a proper mental state to make anything that resembled a decision that was right or wrong.
And when I said "pulled I knife" she was across the room, took it out, and said "get the fuck away from me."
Boom, lawyered.
