I'm sorry to be so forthright Grandma, but please don't send me stuff like this. First, I have an Hispanic girlfriend. Second, different immigrant groups have been scapegoats for all of American history, including your ancestors (if you were always Catholic, especially your ancestors). I am not easily offended, but it's offensive to me in more than just a right vs. left way. It's offensive because it's not true. If you want all the Mexican workers to be deported, I hope you like paying $4 for an apple, or $12 for a bunch of grapes. These workers are doing work Americans won't do, and to pretend getting rid of them would be some kind of panacea is just plain ignorant.
Thanks,
Paul
