“If ya' wanna get rid of illegal immigrants, quit eatin'”
Take 63 seconds to see this link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4gzps0lm1E But first, some background: In 2011, Alabama passed HB 56, a strict law designed to force unlawful aliens to “self deport.” For example, HB 56 prohibits landlords from renting property to unlawful immigrants, and forbids employers from knowingly hiring them for any job within Alabama. If a person wants to own a mobile home in Alabama, he or she must register with the state and prove his or her lawful status. If your parents are from, say, El Salvador, and brought you here unlawfully when you were a baby, you are barred from attending state colleges. Remarkably, this law is kinder and gentler than Mr. Trump’s proposal. Okay, you’re ready for the brief video.
