I missed your point.<br /><br />Did you have to check under the hood to learn he was 100% Italian? <br />Or was he just plain racist? <br /><br />Either way, I'd bet he (Antonio Terrazzo)was too smart to brag that 3 of the 10 hispanics were legal and the other 7 were cousins or inlaws of the 3, and were illegal.
