| 182. So the coach died because the kid was here illegally? |

Tell that to my friend whose brother was killed by a drunk driver who was born right here in Kansas City. Or to my co-worker who lost her son in a wreck caused by a speeder who ran a red light at a dangerous intersection, and who was also an American citizen. The accident that killed the coach was a horrible tragedy, but it wasn't simply the result of illegal immigration. The 16 year old kid who killed him had also dropped out of school; would it be fair to say that raising the mandatory attendance age to 18 would have prevented this accident?
The undocumented workers are not the ones who drove out the American workers. The EMPLOYERS are. There is a guy here in KC who pays laborers ONE DOLLAR AN HOUR. Do you hold his workers more responsible than the thieving contractor? And why is he allowed to get away with that?
