You want a 'real farmer'? How about checking out 1500 acres of maize and alfalfa to feed people and livestock? Yes, we raised it, harvested it, mowed and baled and moved the stacks with a roadsider.
As for working alongside Mexicans, I sure as 'ell did, kiddo. More than once and I know what kind of hard work it is. That still doesn't make breaking laws to come here illegally right.
For your enlightenment, I also used to teach many migrant workers and their families how to survive without giving their earnings and everything they owned (such as it was) to 'the man' who ran the camps.
Bigoted? Hardly! If anyone is you are, Lisa, because when you can't win an argument with facts you tried to throw in the race issue.
You really have NO IDEA who you're talking to/about. I've worked as an area rep in International Student Exchange, hosted both high school students and those here for medical help in my own home from many different countries. Little Rolando Bautista was only 5 years old when he came to stay with us while he got help through Shriner's Hospital.
I taught exchange students about American customs, history and culure abroad and escorted 147 students coming into the USA through customs and immigration. So, don't tell me I don't know my history or what I'm talking about. My background, experience, and life speaks for itself. Can you offer as much? I sincerely doubt it but you're probably young enough to at least try, if you're up to the challenge.

FIB - Scams 101 is maintained by Lesley Fountain with WebBBS 5.12.
| PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT. It has been done before, but never successfully. In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace. NEWS FLASH: I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday. I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish. I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?). I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures. Although we may, from time to time, monitor or review discussions, postings and the like on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, we are under no obligation to do so.

In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact. And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!). |
