    I commend people that are willing and able to be in law enforcement/security forces as that is one job/responsibility I do not care to personally do as a job/career. Many thanks to our man and women that are in the LE and SF ... God bless!

    I have nothing else nice to say or comment. [:p]

    I see no problem if these applicants have true "legal" status.. that means they want to be here and abide by all immigration laws and the laws of our country...that is how America was founded in the 1st place.

    I have no problem with that, as long as the PD's can do a thorough background check. It's probably better than hiring drug users & dealers, as most of our large cities now do.

    But, I may change my mind the first time someone gets shot because he doesn't know how to respond to "Levanten sus manos!"

    BREAKING NEWS: Law enforcement agencies across the US have been hiring legal immigrants as long as our country has been in existence.

    Bagpipes aren't the traditional LE funeral instrument by chance. [;)]

    The Irish yielded the slap stick very well in those days did they not?

    Getting into the country under the dream act is not what the Irish did when they came. So legalism is a sophism act it's what ever The President says.How's that for trolling! [:D]

    A job - a wage - was what they were seeking, and they didn't really care too much about the detail. Being unskilled, uneducated and typically illiterate, they accepted the most menial jobs that other immigrant groups did not want. So-called 'Elegant Society' looked down on them, and so did nearly everyone else!

    They were forced to work long hours for minimal pay. Their cheap labour was needed by America's expanding cities for the construction of canals, roads, bridges, railroads and other infrastructure projects, and also found employment in the mining and quarrying industries.

    When the economy was strong, Irish immigrants to America were welcomed. But when boom times turned down, as they did in the mid-1850s, social unrest followed and it could be especially difficult for immigrants who were considered to be taking jobs from Americans. Being already low in the pecking order, the Irish suffered great discrimination. 'No Irish Need Apply' was a familiar comment in job advertisements.

    Early Sophists were well respected but they soon became unpopular and were subject to much opposition and controversy due to their high fees and their radical challenges to convention. The only citizens who had the money to learn from the Sophists came from the aristocratic class, meaning that many citizens were unable to learn from them. Sophist teachers were also thought to cater to the popular opinion to attract a greater number of students rather than being concerned with the truth.
