Title: Workers (illegals protesting) Get Soaked by Pulte Homes!

this is the commentary on You Tube:

"The video shows Pulte representatives out of control—frustrated at workers demonstrating at construction sites within their developments. Pulte Homes then assaults them with high-pressure water from Pulte water trucks. As the housing market continues to sink in Florence and the rest of the metropolitan area, Pulte Homes dropped its good guy image when it came to the workers who build their homes.

Workers demanding justice from Pulte Homes' construction subcontractors were shocked when the well-know homebuilder began directing its water truck drivers to repeatedly douse workers with high-pressure water. Workers, with dripping clothes and soggy shoes, maintained their calm and continued their peaceful demonstration even as they counted up to 16 separate water assaults in one day. Israel Hernandez, a painter who worked on hundreds of Pulte/Del Webb homes in the Phoenix area, paused while wiping water from the video camera lens, remarking, "This wasn't what we meant when we ask for drinking water on the job site." (more) "

Workers demanding justice from Pulte Homes' construction subcontractors

immigrants from Mexico & central America (many illegal) dominate the work-for these sub-contractors builidng homes in Phoenix area. and they are well-paid. almost all get over $10/hour. Many get up to $20/hour. so I don't know what they're complaining about. the spanish language is absolutely dominant on those crews. the few Americans learn spanish. there is much persecution against the Americans in this work-force as a result of these things. and still they complain.

If you notice, the post on You Tube was by someone from the AFL CIO.. they're trying to get these illegals to unionize.. the AFL CIO is one of the groups that is pro amnestiy and for illegals right to work in this country.. they've sold out their own members..

I've noticed here in Phoenix that these Mexicans doing so much work in construction trades are nothing special. They don't do anything better than the white Americans who used to do it and still do it. They don't even do as well IMHO. and I've noticed that they like labor unions and union mentality a lot. Once they get a job they expect to never lose it to never have to compete, that it is their birth-right, and they expect regular pay increases. They try to create work-rules that are union-esque. and some of them are quite racist towards the whites. they are very discriminating against whites in their hiring practices.

Its that "sense of entitlement" coming back to bite.

Most ethnic groups are quite racist toward anyone else. Its human nature - "multiculturalism" is an aberration which goes against basic human nature. People prefer their own. That's just "how it is" and how it always has been.

Classic 'tolerance' meant just not shooting your neighbor because he was different. It did not mean you had to accept what he did as being valid, equal, or even acceptable. It just meant you put up with it.

Latin culture and Asian culture is about as stratified as you get along color and ethnic lines. Its how the cultures are and nothing is going to change it so long as "multiculturalism" means that overseas ingrained cultural racism is required to be tolerated.

Excellent point. Refers to me here as well. There are more than a few Mèxicans who resent Gringos living in Mèxico every bit as much as you'all resent the illegals up there.
