RE: this is funny
That's a cool video. One of my buds sent me a copy of it quite a while back. I guess the guy that's pissed about this video is probably proud of those SoCal high school kids that flew the MexiBean flag over an upside down US flag one day at their high school. Lot's of things in life **** people off. If it's a little movie clip, then don't watch the damn thing.
Anyone know how to download those movies that are like that one? Shockwave stuff like on YouTube? I've never been able to figure out how to get copies of this stuff and some of it is really good. Just like some of the movies on Harley's web site. Is there anyway to get a copy of those directly from the site? It would be cool if you could just go up to "File" hit "Save" or "Save As" and get yourself a copy.

RE: this is funny
I know everyone is having a laugh at a humorous video - but if you think about the reality, it really isn't that funny.
Most of the illegal immigrants are here out of desparation. Most are doing horrible jobs that we all don't want to do. Many have wives & kids. Unlike some of the lazy "citizens" who are here legally, they don't lounge around on unemployment. They work hard for every penny they make.
The reason I don't find this funny is that I can actually imagine what it would be like to get deported. In some cases, the hubby goes while the rest of the family is hiding out - and they are separated.
So you may be laughing at the gag... but imagine if someone played a "joke" on you and you couldn't see your kids anymore. Yes, I know they chose to come here and accepted the risk. But I've learned not to judge unless I've been in someone's shoes.
The bottom line is that the situation with illegal immigration is complicated and a tragedy. The solution isn't just to deport them.
I vote for a stupidity rating on this video.

RE: this is funny
well heres what I think. your logic is the same as someone that breaks any law in the US and gets caught. Your saying we should feel sorry for someone that is a legal citizen that breaks the law and goes to jail because he too is getting"seperated from his wife and kids" I have to 100% disagree with you. If they really cared about there wife and kids they would come here legally. Nobody is saying they cant come here, just do it legally. As far as them doing the jobs that nobody else will do is line of crap, I hear it all the time. The only reason that most americans cant do those jobs or wont is because the greedy *** employers are paying the Illegal Aliens a very cheap rate. They are breaking the law as well. I think they should be put in jail too, I have no sympathy for them either. You wouldnt have so many illegal aliens trying to come here if it werent for the greedy amercian business owners hiring cheap labor to save some money. The small business owners that try and do it the right way and pay a decent wage cant stay in business because their competitors are hiring these cheap illegals to do the work. This is allowing them to under bid jobs that the legit small business owners cant. Your logic is way out of whack and you may want to do a little research on the topic before you run your mouth about how we should have some sympathy. Give me a break.
Another thing, you sound like the typical left winger who wants feel sorry and have sympathy for people who break the law. WHY? All that does is give the mexican immigrants who came here LEGALLY and pay taxes, soc. sec ect.. a bad name. I feel sorry for those people not the dirty *** people who try and buck the system.

RE: this is funny
Ok, so why cant I have the millions like Paris Hilton or any other kid that came into money. My My they are so lucky. But you kno what I am not out breaking the law to get what they have. There are ways to come to this country. Nobody is saying to not better yourself, just do it legally. So your saying we shouldnt lock people up in prison? They are in cages like animals ? Maybe we should let them all go so we dont hurt there feelings. And you would lose your money my friend, because I would not break the law. There are plenty of people who have come here from different countries who have done it the right way. Why should someone else be able to bypass the system ? WHY WHY WHY.

RE: this is funny
Um, I am sorry to break it to you but, YES they are criminals. They very same way you would be if you tried to go to Mexico without going thru the proper process. Or any other country that you want to go to. Do you think that other countries are going to let you walk right in and set up your family with disregard to their citizenship laws ? I am gonna take a wild guess and say no. So why should it be ok for people to come here illegally. Oh, and they do have the same tools as anyone else has to better themselves. Do you not think that there are people in this country that came from Mexico legally. I am going to bet that there are, and even going to say that they are doing very well here. So why if they can do it right cant everyone else.
If you want people to all be the same and afforded the same things in life, you are living in the wrong country. Go to a country like Russia. everyonehas the same level of wealth. See how much you like it. You make no sense. Can you imagine if the US had no laws in regards to the borders ? People could just wander on over as they please. Are you kidding? Do you think this country would be the same. NO WAY. your life that you have would be totally different if the US were to just open up the borders and allow anyone to walk, fly or boat on in. You have clearly not thought about the consequences of your statements.
