Danged Immigrants

We finally made our way out of Idaho. We almost missed out on eating at our favorite Mexican restaurant because the day we had intended to go the Mexican owners took the day off... to celebrate the Fourth of July. They obviously don't understand the obligations they have to the multiculturalist left and nativist right to disdain their new home.

Again, there is a MAJOR difference between legal immigrants and illegal immigrants.

Attempting to conflate the two is a very dishonest tactic.

Sigh.

I never said that the restaurant owners were legal. I have my doubts. Either way, whether they're legal or not has more to do with what our laws are than who they are. In any event, I'm mostly just celebrating the assimilation of marginally-educated, broken-English Mexicans that many say cannot or should not be happening. I've more or less given up discussing immigration *policy* on this blog because of the attitudes the debate brings forth.

Fair enough. I agree that assimilation is a good thing. And I don't think that it "cannot" or "should not" be happening - but I do observe that the larger mexican-immigrant community, legal or not, have an unfortunate tendency *not* to be doing what your restaurant owners have done.

To an extent, I think that you and I could interpret the exact same group of people and come to completely different conclusions about how "they" are, depending on which ones we consider to be more representative of the group and which ones we consider to be outliers.

Some measures have been taken to guard against comment spam. All unregistered users must enter the letters and numbers below. Comments for unregistered user posts over 90 days old are also subject to moderation. You are free to set up an account and bypass these measures as well as be able to edit your posts. If Captcha isn't working, you are free to use the "Guest" account, the password being the last month of the year in all-lowercase letters.

(1) Create an account. Creating an account has a number of benefits. For one thing, Nucleus will not keep forgetting your name as it presently does. Secondly, it'll give you the opportunity to edit your own comments if you accidentally put HTML in there or something. Third, if I ever have to disable the blog, you'll still be able to see it. Lastly, it gives you a distinct name to comment as so that if someone with the same name wants to leave a comment, they won't mistake that person for you. If you would like me to create the account for you, please send me an email at first initial, middle initial, last name (all one word) at bigfoot.com or leave a message here as a guest. Once your account is created, you can log on in the fields on the left bar. You can change your password by logging in

(2) Sign in as "Guest." I have a special "Guest" account set up. The name is "Guest" (hence the superfluous-appearing quotation marks) and the password is the last month of the year in all lowercase. If this is abused by the spammers I'll have to come up with something else. If you do this, please sign your name on the comment so that I know who is talking and all that.

Make sure that none of your bookmarks have the www.* in front of the name. For some reason having that can cause some problems when trying to log in. I don't pretend to understand it, but there ya go.

Please note that HTML does not work within comments on this platform. URLs will be hyperlinked with a truncated form of the address given. No post can be more than 5,000 characters. I won't delete any comment unless it totally needs deleting.
