Obama: European jihadists threaten US

[kenny]

He actually said something and is concerned about a possible threat from Europeans, who have been "battle hardened" in Syria, coming into the US, because if they travel on their EU passports they don't need a visa. The story mentions like 700-800 individuals.
I'm glad he's paying attention there, but what about the Southern border, where people cross daily from no telling where? That defies logic and reason.

Wonder how many American citizens are in Syria right now getting war hardened a little more? Rumors put it at a hundred.
If we are gonna fear someone ,fear them when they come back.

[dbarham]

Im way more worried about the borders than terrorists ,at least the they take you out in a hurry these wetbacks will kill you slowly over several years. Just like torture just ask anyone in construction!

The companies that hire them deserve what they get. Cheap labor and exploitation is no way to gain respect and dedication.
The ones I know are hard working, Christian, family oriented, happy people.
They also fish.

[boom]

Why support bringing them here if you don't plan on giving them employment? All the more reason to control the border, but then they wouldn't vote democrat would they?

By the way, I'd be just as concerned about the illegals that come across with tuberculosis and polio.

Well yeah, that stating the obvious. How many jihadists have crossed on our Southern border since 9/11?

Its the ones that run they're own businesses carpenters painters conctete etc etc hard to compete with they're prices because they get everything free here health care and school lunches and many other perks you or I do not get! And the companies that do hire them have no choice. Most mom and pop outfits are not union jobs!

[mgstei1]

I don't support them or their rotten employers that started the whole mess to begin with. What kind of American business person would break the law wanting undocumented labor. They think and believe that they are so patriotic and superior when other businesses do whats right and follow the laws.
Anyone with a visa or passport can come in with any diseases and vermin and what ever also. That's a mute point and the conservative news loves to use that one.
Who knows how many have crossed the southern borders or any border for that matter.

Its an ongoing curable problem that has gone on for decades and many presidents.
Our congress or house should vote on the senate bill before the end of the year and make something happen.

The ones that do have a business form a LLC type business. Or they are subcontracted by a general contractor. If they are paid in cash than they do not pay taxes or SS and neither do their employers. That's incentive to play the system for employer and employees.
Americans failures to improve security, verify legal status, and recognize forged documents are main reasons the undocumented receive benefits.
American companies that do hire them are wrong to do so. Period. Profits over patriotism is wrong.
Its a workers choice to be union or not. Not an employer.

None, all my posts are from an employees perspective. I've said before and will say it again, its us against them and they gonna win. Its just how you play the game and pray they don't shove the bat up your arse.
My arse is still raw and sore and will never heal.

[dbarham]

Ouch my *** is fine

[boom]

Yeah, my *** if fine too. I've never shoved a bat up an employee's *** either. I thought that unions were supposed to protect your ***?????

Their blood and sweat and efforts have protected and given to all workers past and present.
If you have never had controversy or been upset over anything at work than for sure you own a business or have given your heart and soul to the employer. Kinda like the devil.
