I read an article on Yahoo news yesterday about a restaurant owner in Phoenix who claims half of his business is gone because most of the illegals have left the state and either returned to Mexico, or are looking for work in another state. The really fucked up part is that half of his customer base was here in the US illegally, and he doesn't care because without them it's killing his business.
Some people call this discrimination. I disagree. When I get pulled over, they ask for my license. In fact, any time I deal with the police it's the first thing out of their mouth. If someone doesn't speak fluent English, well, then the cops need to look into why they are here and if they are here legally. If it's in Phoenix it means you'll be looking at a lot of Hispanics funny; If your in San Fran you'll be dealing with Asians. You call it discrimination, I call it reality.
