Please don't take offense to my question, I'm just puzzled and looking for feedback. Please no nasty comments eithier. . . .

A common complaint from Americans on illegal immigrants is that illegal immigrants are taking away our jobs. With the utmost sincerity, I ask this question. What jobs are they taking from you and I? Let's be honest. Are Americans going to go out each day and pick produce in fields at 104 F weather, wash cars for minimum wage, or go out and maintain someone else's landscape? Again, I ask what jobs are these immigrants stealing?

If one were to pick a group of people who are taking our jobs, it would be all of the people overseas and the companies who relocate for the sake of a dollar and leave thousands if not millions of Americans unemployed. Also, for those who have engineering degrees, etc. aren't those as well being given to folks overseas?

Feedback please, I'm just talking about the job aspect argument that I hear so much of.....

Womens right to choose
Gay marriage
and Republicans not liking blacks.

Do they not realize that our party is split 50/50 on Womens right to choose and gay-rights, that is why the republican party is supporting moderates like Romney, Guilani, and my personal favorite Fred Thompson (if he does run). All three men are very liberal socialy.

People in the Republican Party are not prejudice, of course you will find fringe groups in both party's... But insinuating that Republicans do not like Blacks, is like Republicans stating Democrats do not like Jews because a large portion of Democrats do not support Israel.

Pandering to prejudices in politics is disgusting, and shows how simple minded the majority of Democrats on Yahoo Answers actually are.

Can the cops pull me over if my Third brake light is out? The one in the center of the rear window. I have a friend who was pulled over for that. Now, my light is out and I find it ridiculous to pull me over for a light, even though the rest of them work

Here in India, Pepsi sells Aquafina packaged water, 1000ml for Rs. 15, no problem, but now they've started selling smaller 750ml bottles for Rs. 20. Thus increasing profits. Shopkeepers slowly are withdrawing the 1ltr bottles and replacing them with these new ones. I plan to file a consumer petition against the company, I've already written to several newspapers. What's your take?

An police officer filed out his report saying that an individual was speeding in two different speed zones (and this was the reason for pulling the person over). However there is video evidence that two different speed zones did not exist, what, if anything, can be done or filed in court?

I would like to get into something along the lines of Administration or Human Resources in the Guard if I decide to join since these lines of duty relate best to my civilian job working in an office at present. Anybody have any suggestions or comments on these types of MOS's in the National Guard, especially relating to Illinois if possible? Also, where is BCT and AIT normally held for MOS's in these types of positions? Any help would be awesome!

I have a friend who says that the police came to his house and asked to come inside and look for a stolen television. He claims that he said "No." and shut the door.

Can he do that or would they have just busted the door down and arrested him?
