Study of effects on employment across the OECD countries:
Blacks are unemployed because most live in urban centers with restrictions on economic freedom, high minimum wage, and poorly run schools. This is pretty much true across the board for every minority you can mention with the same issue, who together, form the bulk of the High School unemployed group. Immigrants create jobs, both because they help the business save money & expand, and because they themselves are consumers, who will need other workers to meet their consumer demands.
When, before now, did we have thousands of unaccompanied minors, some in diapers, all unvaccinated and some with TB flooding across our borders? I'll be waiting for the answer.
Yeah Pirate. :2wave: We can tell everybody else to quit borrowing Border Partols Drones.....So they can do the job they were intended to do.
Border-patrol drones being borrowed by other agencies more often than previously known......

Federal, state and local law enforcement agencies are increasingly borrowing border-patrol drones for domestic surveillance operations, newly released records show, a harbinger of what is expected to become the commonplace use of unmanned aircraft by police.
Customs and Border Protection, which has the largest U.S. drone fleet of its kind outside the Defense Department, flew nearly 700 such surveillance missions on behalf of other agencies from 2010 to 2012, according to flight logs released recently in response to a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit filed by the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a civil-liberties group.
The records show that the border-*patrol drones are being commissioned by other agencies more often than previously known. Most of the missions are performed for the Coast Guard, the Drug Enforcement Administration and immigration authorities. But they also aid in disaster relief and in the search for marijuana crops, methamphetamine labs and missing persons, among other missions not directly related to border protection.
Because they have sophisticated cameras and can remain in flight for many hours at a time, drones create novel privacy challenges. Civil libertarians have argued that these aircraft could lead to persistent visual surveillance of Americans on private property. Government lawyers have argued, however, that there is no meaningful legal distinction between the use of unmanned and piloted aircraft for surveillance.....snip~

What is a "real American"? assimilated? What does that mean? My daughters great Grandmother immigrated to the US from Mexico in the 40's. She worked, saved and by 1963 bought a two flat in a German community where very little english was spoken. She never learned a lick of English herself, yet she paid taxes and contributed to the community.
