It's amazing how any article about racial minorities brings out all of the bigots like weeds. And some of you people who cheer a hit and run attack on a day laborer are probably some of the same people who get all bent out of shape because someone says "Happy Holidays" instead of "Merry Christmas."
Regardless of how you feel about immigration policy, these people are human beings, not cockroaches or rodents. Yes, I know not all of them are innocent angels. The ones who are engaged in gang violence and drug dealing should be arrested and deported. But the ones who are here just to work to help their families should be given a chance to legalize their status.
The truth is though that immigration from Latin America is not a permanent phenomenon. Birth rates are declining and there is economic improvement. Plus, the declining values of the U.S. dollar will make America a less attractive destination.

Irene, If you want to see something funny, take a ride about a block up north from where this took place and take a right on Horseblock I beleive it is. Right on the front lawn of UPS is a big sign that reads "Now Hiring". Whats funny is that if you look right across the street you have a large group of these wonderful people that you mention that get up at 5:00 in the morning to go to work. Oh thats right Irene, These wonderful people are here illegally and can not go in to UPS and get a real job. Hey Irene, WAKE THE F#$@ UP!!!!!! irene wrote: i think all of you who wrote need to get some help. i never realized there are so many miserable people. he was standing there so he could go to work. how many of your kids get up at 5:00 and have to stand on a corner just to go to work. they are people just like you. try going to church and talk to GOD. you all need to put some goodness back in your souls.

We-ell... if he wasn't here where he doesn't belong, then he wouldn't have gotten run over.
No LEGAL immigrant would be standing on a corner looking for an OFF THE BOOKS job.

no way wrote: <quoted text>thats what you think but it aint like that first off the officials need to treat this as a hate crime because obviously it was a mexican wich is not fair cause this person just happened to be in the wrong place at the wrong time as for all the critisizem long island and farmingville was a nice place most of people in farmingville have money now the street corners look like mexico drug dealers we pay taxes not for us to be afraid to walk on our streets but there are to many creeps that are intimidating i will not walk down the street anymore is this a way to live why is it that when you go to mexico there police walk the streets with machine guns and dont ever be alone in cancoon you will come across animals with macheties to your neck why cause there hard core animals Drug dealers? What are you basing this crap on?? The vast majority of the people who you see on the corners are people looking for wor. Just ebcause their skin color might be different from yours is no reason to be imtimdated, if you are, you must be a very sad individual.

Schmuck....I live close to where this happened and THEY ARE ILLEGALS!!!!!

Why dont you adopt a couple of them and let them solicit in front of your house or on your corner. Then you will see your hard earned dollars go right out the window when your property value starts to sink. Nobody in this blog has complained about immigration, it has always been the way people came to this country. But what has happened now with all these illegal immigrants is wrong and as our economy gets worse you will see the repercussions. This is just the start.

I know this might be hard for some people to grasp, but not every spanish person you see is here illegally. Not that this guy's leagility matters in this case. This is about some schumch deliberatley running someone else over. Regardless if the victim is legal or illegal it doesn't change the heinousness of the act.

Tim, I agree with comment #2, however...do you really think a Day laborer standing on the side of the road is legal? And if in fact he is legal and is working as a Day laborer...there is a VERY good chance he is working illegally off the books. Either way he's sucking up our tax dollars.

One last thing...Even though he may be here illegally, what happened to him is disgusting. He is still a human and I don't blame him for being here trying to make a living. I blame our government for not doing anything about it.

The only reason they get away with this is because they have more rights than ordinary citizens. Our elected government has dropped the ball and are scared to do anything about it. Wait until there is no more money to fund the hospitals that these people use as doctors offices. This is just the start

Make Suffolk County its own country so that it can set its own immigration policy? All this over a miniscule undocumented minority? You extremist militia types don't make any sense at all.

I live in Nassau County and we have the same problem. So if we are to suceed it should be Long Island and that is as far off as you think. You would have to live in these areas to know the pain that overcomes you when you see your nice neighborhood going down the drain because of useless politicians not enforcing our laws.

This is just the start First off to say they have more rights than the ordinaty citizen is uttelry ludicrous, it comes straight from the Michael Savage's of the world and has no basis in fact. In regards to the intimidation comment I was responding to the comments made by no way in which he claimed that he was intiimdated to walk through Farmingville, which is utterly ridicolous.

Going down the drain??? Do you realize how moronic those comments are when they are made right after the year we come off our lowest crime rate in 43 years here in Nassau??

The economy isn't going the drain ebcause of illegals. the economy is going down the drain because of economic policies that are soley ocused on the very wealthy, massive tax cuts to millionaires, big corrporate fact cats, oil subsidies and spending hhundreds of billions a year in Iraq. Thats why our econmy is going down the drain.
