There - fixed it for ya!  :thumbsup: 
I bet when it comes to stories about farang lives being shredded in Thailand by immigration, you're probably at the front of the line with quips like, "We're only guests in Thailand."  I bet I'm right, 'eh?

Thousands of blue-haired liberal Thais descend on Bangkok and begin burning the city and demanding you be allowed to live and work in Thailand because, "You're just trying to have a chance at a good life!"  

No?  Yeah, exactly - didn't think so.

If any job taken by an illegal immigrant,  finds a legal resident to take over, then it's obvious to make things right again. But obviously the legal resident would ask for more wage. 

 

Why do you think all over Europe, the politicians are closing their eyes on the illegals ? Usually the mafias in Italy, eastern Europe, France or even in the UK are in close contact with the human trafickers who bring in the illegal labour. Labour that is then used for drug trafficking, prostitutions, menial jobs in farms, fields, restaurants that no legal wants to do. They also have support from the far left antifa woke political groups and thus the corruption and exploitation of the illegals continue, 

 

Any country that tolerates illegals to be in it's territory is contributing to human trafficking and exploitation. 

 

So sorry, I don't like Trump at all. But despite him, he is making life miserable for all those exploiting human illegal labour and seems to be the only western leader to take appropriate steps to fight all the human trafficking. Like it or not.

I’ve been at the protests in Los Angeles this week, and I have news for you: The city is not facing an “insurrection.” In the vast expanse that is Los Angeles County, the rallies barely register as a blip. The protests are confined to a very small area of downtown. The protesters I spoke to weren’t anarchists bent on burning down the system. They were mostly young people — first- or second-generation U.S. citizens — protesting the persecution their immigrant parents are enduring. They are certainly not “insurrectionist migrant mobs.”

 

And for the most part, yes, the protests have been peaceful. There have been isolated — and reprehensible — incidents of looting and vandalism, but nothing near the scale of past riots in Los Angeles. The notion that the situation is under control thanks to the National Guard is simply false. The LAPD has been managing the response very well.

 

Los Angeles isn’t a “ruptured, balkanized society of strangers.” It is not “occupied territory.” It certainly isn’t experiencing the consequences of an “invasion.” What Los Angeles, this vibrant, pluralistic city where dozens of languages and nationalities coexist, is experiencing is an attack on its most essential social fabric — a concerted campaign of terror. Since last Friday, when Immigration and Customs Enforcement began its operations, the immigrant community in the city that best embodies the immigrant experience in the United States has been paralyzed.

I only saw 3 potential protestors about about 100 people with press vests on.  Looked like a pretty boring press party to me.  Everyone brought cameras and no one provided beverages.

What are you talking about? Trump just made it okay for hotels, restaurants, and farms to hire illegals. He has ordered ICE to stop taking those workers into custody for deportation.

What I really don't get it why President Trump is concentrating on Dem cities. We know that these illegals bring crime, dirt, and disease wherever they go. So why is he favoring lefties who would never vote for him in a million years? Why isn't he cleaning up areas where MAGA supporters are the vast majority?
