Do you think this is funny? I don't.

Making fun of the way people talk (for political reasons?) never seemed funny, even when I was a child. Some people never got the benefit of an aristocratic education so speak as their fathers and grandfathers spoke. To an outsider this may be amusing but hardly a reason to make fun of any group, either U.S. citizens or foreigners to our country.

Or perhaps the amusing parts are when these (possibly uneducated) people actually lose their jobs to illegal aliens? Is that the part that gets you chuckling? For over 20 years my manual labor job took me into literally thousands of manufacturing companies....I've seen the people displaced by foreign workers.

The worst situation I've seen (many times) has been entire companies forced to close because overseas companies paying a fraction of a living wage have taken all of their business. Some are sadder than others: I remember when Chicago Rawhide closed....so sad watching these people say goodbye to each other.

It's just not funny.
