>>>>>>>Ya know now this has me so tweeked that to prove a point (or, I suppose prove me wrong) that I'm going BACK to the Home Depot before I come to the office tommorrow and take a little survey.
>>>>>>>I'm going to toss out a number - lets say 8 out of 10 (80%) will not either a SS card or a green card.
>>>>>>>
>>>>>>>Does anyone want to toss out a number?
>>>>>>
>>>>>>Around here, it would probably be at least 9 out of 10. For awhile it got so bad that I couldn't even take my pickup truck to Home Depot early in the morning because half a dozen men would jump in the back.

>>>>>I was rather suprised how straight forward these guys were. One thing I didn't take into account was the stolen id's, which all said they found at flea markets. Even more funny was that 3 of the guys were using the exact same ID - only thing different was the picture...haha
>>>>>Out of the 37 willing to answer only ONE - just one was a USA citizen and only two had green cards....anyway guess I'll let the numbers speak for themselves......
>>>>
>>>>Ok, Victor. You are telling me that these guys didn't take off when you asked them for ID and whether they were legal or not? Now I've got a couple assumptions running through my mind...
>>>
>>>naaa. I bought a box of doughnuts and said I was trying to settle an argument. I don't think these guys have anything to worry about either - remember the whole reason this came up to begin with is because the pig in the parking lot watchin all these guys was doing just that - sitting and watching. Heck I said something to the piggy about it and he ended up hassling ME!
>>
>>
>>He couldn't possibly have sensed that you think he's a pig, could he?
>
>Well when I said maybe he should quit stuffing all those tweenkys he was eating in his mouth and like..uhh..do is job I think he might of sensed something. I didn't say the tweenky thing until after he started hassling me though - but he sure didnt like someone telling him to do something....ya know like police work for example.

>>I am not intimidated by police but I don't yank their chains, either. Especially in Chicago. It's just luck that the Rodney King thing didn't happen here.
>
>I don't yank chains either - but this cop was just letting these "obviously illegal" aliens hassle people and wasn't doing squat about it. It just ticked me off so I figured I'd say something to him.
>And hey - if yer ever filming me getting the crap knocked out of me like Rodney King - do me a favor - put the darn camera down and come help me!
