First Illegal Immigrant Arrested Under Alabama Law is from YEMEN!!!

If you Goofle (OTMs) or "Other Than Mexicans" busted evey year crossing over the border that will blow your mind, because a lot of them are coming here and my guess is they are not coming to work in the fields.

All the more reason to design a massive public works project A.K.A "The Great Wall of America".
 
heh...a yemenese who'd a thought that....that is mind blowing.
 
anyone who gets arrested anywhere in this country for any reason, should have their immigration status checked.

I mean, how long could it take? 15 minutes?
 
You seemed to have misspelled Mexican... :lol:

Just kidding, that is actually surprising though!

I agree.Personally I think with computers these day they should do it when they pull you over for a traffic offense. If they can run a warrant check then it shouldn't take that long or be an inconvenience to see if someone is here in the county legally.

not only that, but ALL state driver's license applications should require proof of citizenship. any state that refuses to enforce this should lose their Dept. of Transportation funding.
 
It obviously isn't all about Mexicans and other Latin Americans. A Yemeni illegal is just as guilty as an Hispanic illegal. Get 'em out of the country.

Except (at least) I rarely hear about Yemeni people smuggling drugs and killing American citizens, etc.
 
Why is this surprising to people?

It's surprising, because democrats here would have you believe that this legislation is all about discriminating against Mexicans. Also, when I think illegal immigrant, I don't exactly think Yemen.

Yemen doesnt seem more or less likely than poland or Mozambique for an illegal immigrant. I'm surprised you're surprised... racist laws aren't allowed and I don't think I conceived of a law being put into place with discriminatory ends was even possible.

No, but Mexico is more likely to find that an illegal immigrant is from, if, for no other reason, the vicinity of the country.

Alabama farmers losing immigrant labor, see produce rotting in the fields

Regardless of how a federal judge rules this week, Alabama's new immigration law has already delivered "unintended consequences" across the state, said Agriculture Commissioner John McMillan.

The picking of blueberries, tomatoes and squash largely requires hand labor, McMillan said Monday, and the work is no longer getting done.

McMillan said he recently visited a farmer who has 75 acres of squash in north Jackson County.

"It was just rotting in the fields because he had half the labor," McMillan told The Huntsville Times editorial board. "That's a fact. What I'm telling you is what I've seen."

In June, the new Republican majority in Montgomery passed a sweeping 72-page act that is widely considered the toughest crackdown on illegal immigration in the country. The act not only allows local police to detain people suspected of being in the country illegally, the law also makes it a crime for illegal immigrants to look for work in Alabama.
 
He probably came to get away from the constant buzzing of Predator drones...
