Toys 'R' Us
Nicely done, Toys 'R' Us. Of course, illegals are upset at them. Well, any time criminals are complaining about the actions of a government or a company, that's probably a good thing. And in this case, as usual, it is.
The whiners are complaining because Toys 'R Us had a competition. As part of the RULES for the competition, it clearly stated that the parents of the winner were required to be legal residents of America. So, when some illegal aliens appeared to win, Toys R Us quickly disqualified them, as they had quite obviously broken the rules. I say again, nicely done, Toys 'R Us. But the illegals, always complaining, feel that it's not fair that Toys R Us make such rules. What I want to know is why these whiny bastards haven't been deported yet. If we had ANY immigration enforcement at all, as soon as they opened their mouths to complain and whine, they'd have been arrested and deported. But still the whiny slimeballs continue to stretch the truth and scream:Some Chinese-American advocates say the company's decision smacks of second-class citizenship.
No, it's not "second-class" citizenship, it's LEGAL citizenship. Why do you sorry excuses for people have such a hard time with that concept? This
"People are just pretty much outraged," said John Wang, president of the New York-based Asian American Business Development Center.
Only whiny people who hate America or hate American laws, you worthless bum. People who follow the rules aren't outraged ONE bit.
Albert Wang, an attorney, has launched an e-mail campaign on the issue. "She was deprived of $25,000 intended to be used for her college education because of who her parents are."
Lying bastard. That's absolutely NOT true. That's intentionally spreading a lie there. Blatant dishonesty. Scum. She didn't get the free money BECAUSE HER PARENTS DIDN'T FOLLOW THE RULES. Again, good job Toys 'R Us. I hope you don't cave into the whiny bastards. And ICE, you are NOT doing your job as long as these admitted illegals are still here.

Where are the emails and fax numbers? Let's tell Toys R Us they are doing a good job and complain to the others. Onslaught of bloggers! ok ok, i'm tired and fussy and would love to have a good fight... but that tired part is killing me. Don't even ask what stupid stuff I have done in the last 24 hours.

I will actually be meeting with some of the management in the very near future. While I normally don't mix business with politics, I'm thinkin' this might just come up.
At our office, you have to sign a form acknowledging that English is the "main" language for official communication in our company. They also take great pride that every employee is legal. In fact it's a part of our portfolio. While I'm proud of that, it also makes me very sad that it's even something that has to be brought up........

I, for one, am shocked.
Usually Toys R Us upper management has their heads so far up their asses they get indigestion from blinking.
Glad to see they got one right
BTW, if you can bring it up tactfully, you should tell TRU that their store layouts suck. Back when they had actual aisles you could find stuff, now with this "Imaginarium" layout even the damn employees don't know where crap is half the time.

I missed this post my last visit. WTF...WTF is it that the Chinese didn't understand the contest was limited to LEGAL citizens? WTF is so hard about that? And Toys R US then succumbs to the whiners. This is just so ****ed in so many ways.

With respect to my legal analysis on whether Yuki Lin is entitled to the $25,000 U.S. Savings Bond from Toys-R-Us, I am firmly convinced that my legal position (as set forth in my e-mails to Toys-R-Us’ Legal Department during the week of January 1, 2007) is correct and unassailable. Before I decided to start this uphill battle as a valiant seeker of Truth, Liberty and Justice, I did consult with various friends and family members who are reputable and competent lawyers.
The most important legal issue is:
Whether Toys-R-Us can discriminate against a First Baby of the Year (e.g., Yuki Lin, who is born in New York City, State of New York and undeniably a United States citizen), by refusing to award the $25,000 U.S. Savings Bond promised to be awarded by Toys-R-Us in accordance with the terms of its own Sweepstake Official Rules, based on the baby’s parents’ marital status, race, color, religion, sex, national origin, ancestry, education, criminal history, legal status or any other factors unrelated to the baby’s rights to U.S. citizenship under our Constitution, as amended by the Fourteenth Amendment.
I am firmly convinced that my legal analysis is accurate, and my legal position tenable. If this legal issue were argued in a U.S. federal court or New York State court, I strongly believe that Yuki would be able to prevail on the merits.
. . . . . . . . a romantic realist,
aspiring to be a valiant seeker of Truth, Liberty and Justice.

Justice? You call it justice when one person gains a cash prize at the expense of the public? I'd strongly disagree.
Instead, this "win" for Yuki not only increases prices to everyone and reduces profits to a legitimate business; but it also sends the message that individuals in this country are not permitted to set rules and regulations that apply to contests for American citizens. No, if you're not an American citizen, you DO NOT have the protection of the Constitution and the rights it protects. At least in a place of freedom and justice you don't.
If I have $5 and I decide that I want to give it to the first American Citizen I see, no lawyer or court should have the ability to stop me. Your view of liberty and justice says that I should not be free to give away money to whomever I please.
But hey, thanks for stopping along!

How did they pay the hospital bill? If you're an illegal, you aren't required to actually pay hospital bills. Seriously. They'll ask you to pay, but if you say you have no address, you just walk away with all the free treatment you want. And yes, they're breaking the law, but that doesn't matter when the federal government: Bush and the Democrats -- refuse to enforce the law!
