Since this article is filled with pro-illegals bull **** I decided to post it in the immigration forum section."Day laborer" seems to be another term that illegals and pro-illegals anti-Americans use to describe illegals.


wcbstv.com - Day Laborers Sue Mamaroneck Police
CBS/AP) WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. Day laborers who successfully sued a Westchester village have won a tentative agreement that prohibits police officers from routinely asking their immigration status or otherwise discriminating against them, their lawyers said Monday.

Next we'll see drunk drivers suing police officers who ask them if they've been drinking. You know... so they aren't "discriminated against".

In fact, why don't all criminals do this? We could just pass laws that say that cops can't ask us about breaking the law because that would "discrimination" against criminal acts. No more interrogations, no more asking for my damn driver's license when I get pulled over, no more questions from cops at any time. We wouldn't want to infringe on anyone's civil rights.

With specific regards to this case, it was a case of discrimination. The white populice was not being asked for identification yet there is a case of illegal white populice immigrants from eastern Europe. The latino's were being discriminated against - at least according to the information released with regards to this case.

What's the point of asking their immigration status anyway, it's not like they're gonna deport them or anything.

But I do have to say though, it does suck to get asked for a green card just because of the color of your skin. Depending on the situation, it can be quite demeaning.

Has it occurred to anyone that illegals don't have "rights" when it comes to "discrimination" because they aren't citizens? The whole idea of an illegal suing anyone in our court system is laughable at best. How can a noncitizen make use of our court system for anything?

Which, of course, is bull****. Everyone who is pulled over should have to show their identification, it's the law in most areas. Doesn't matter what nationality you are, you are required to prove that you are a legal citizen. Apparently it's somehow racist and discriminatory to ask hispanics to do so, especially in border states where it's a massive problem.

If there were Canadian border states, for example, where white illegal immigration was a massive problem, I'd have no problem whatsoever with whites being held to the same standards.

You know, this is the whole point. Illegals should not be able to use our court system for civil cases.

I just can't comprehend this line of thinking. That police shouldn't be allowed to ask for identification to see if someone is legal or not. What the hell is the point of having immigration laws if the cops aren't ALLOWED to enforce them?

Or when INS can't even do anything. Immigration laws are bull**** cover ups for a do nothing congress that obviously doesn't care what people want.

This is only considering if they are illegals when we automatically label them as something else.
However even non-citizens -ie tourists - can file discriminatory law suits against US citizens here in the US. Doesn't matter the status of the individual.

With regards to this case, that's not what happened. They were not being simply pulled over. They were clearly being discriminated against, at least with what we know so far with regards to this case.
