Some little Mexican gangbangers broke into our custom shop last week and did about $70,000 in damage to our show cars, and to our customers' cars with their vandlism. They spraypainted the cars, broke out all the glass, and punctured all of the tires. But our video surveilance caught them on tape, and all 3 of them were arrested. The poor little boys' attorney called me today, asking that I appear in court to support their bail reduction, because they cannot afford bail, and their parents cannot afford bail. And he would like for me to consider dropping the charges, because everyone is afraid the boys and their families (all here illegally) will be deported if these kids are convicted of a crime. He suggests I let these juvenile delinquents work in my shop at a REDUCED salary till they make restitution. He wants me to let them out of jail, AND>>>>GIVE THEM JOBS!!!!<<<<< Who of you would do such a thing, and why? ME? I'm gonna let them sit in jail. Where they belong.

Hey Andrea, I know they are Mexicans, and I know they are here illegally, because the police and THEIR ATTORNEY told me so. I have never met these kids. I didn't even view the surviellance tapes. The police did.

Oh yeah, they deserve a break. Poor little misunderstood boys. They are only here for a better life. They aren't doing anything wrong. You must be racist. I SAY LET EM ROT. IF THEY WANT THE AMERICAN DREAM, OBEY THE LAWS. LITTLE CREEPS.
Don't let them out of jail and make sure they get deported and the government should be responsible for your restitution of your shop since it is the sole responsability of our government who gets into this country. The Immigration and Citizenship Act clearly states that any crime commited by an illegal gets jail and deportation. However, don't judge all illegals by a few bad apples because the same applies to legals and our citizens. If I were you, I would refrain from making hate comments because your life could be in danger with these thugs, and it really isn't worth it. Sorry you are going through all this and don't relent in getting justice.
I'm a strong believer in did the crime do the time. I am all for humanity and all of that but what about the amount of damage that they have done and what happens if you do give them a chance and then they get fed up with working for nothing and walk out because with a bill like that it has got to be a hell of a deduction but the main question is if it was someone from your own country would you do the same I personally think regardless of race, colour or nationality they still committed a crime and should be punished accordingly
Or you could be a better man and try to not act out of revenge. Yes, they acted stupidly. Yes, they should pay for it. Do you think having them go to jail is going to make it better in the long run? They'll go to jail and get an education in crime and be back out in a few years and do something worse to someone else. You could realize that material possessions don't really matter in the long run, and you probably have insurance to cover your loss anyway and you could make these dumb little bastards work their asses off. But I doubt you are going to listen to this. I'm sure you are too pissed off. And I don't really blame you.
I cannot believe that actually asked you to do that! That is ridiculous! The little bastards deserve to sit in jail for their crimes! They don't reduce bail for actual citizens of this country, just cause they can't afford to post! Good for you!!! Let them sit there! Teach them a lesson! Maybe even get them deported! We don't need anymore hoodlums here!
