blame the business owners who hire them, not the fucking illegals. They are coming to this country for a better life because rich business owners will exploit them and pay them under the table.
Make felons out of the business owners. Read this if you didn't earlier. This is what will actually correct things instead of fueling racism. Make the penalties for hiring illegals so huge that it isn't worth hiring them and actually enforce the fucking laws that are already on the books.
Barbed Wire and Minutemen aint shit.

Contractor accused of transporting illegal aliens
Fargo, ND (AP) - Federal officials have charged the owner of an Indiana company that performs stucco work at construction sites in Wisconsin and other Midwestern states, accusing him of transporting and hiring illegal aliens.
Robert Adrian Porcisanu, 28, a Romanian citizen, and his Franklin, Ind., business, Stucco Design Inc., were named in a 12-count criminal indictment unsealed Monday in the District of North Dakota.
According to the indictment, Porcisanu and his company undercut the bids of competitors and won contracts to perform stucco-related work by using illegal workers to reduce labor costs.
He is accused of arranging to transport his illegal employees to construction sites in Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, South Dakota and Wisconsin and of paying for them to stay at nearby hotel rooms.
Porcisanu, a citizen of Romania, also known as Iulian Jijie, faces three counts of money laundering, two counts of making false statements and several other charges, including conspiracy to harbor illegal aliens and conspiracy to transport illegal aliens.
He plans to plead not guilty when he is arraigned in Fargo, N.D., his attorney Robert Ratliff said. Immigration officials originally detained Porcisanu in March because of his immigration status, Ratliff said.
Porcisanu is in the custody of federal marshals in the Fargo area.
The indictment also alleges that he did not pay his illegal workers overtime and did not withhold state and federal taxes or Social Security taxes.
If convicted on all the counts, he faces as many as 40 years in prison. The government also seeks the forfeiture of the proceeds of Porcisanu’s illegal business activity, about $1.5 million.
