And if you folk up in the Northeast, Northwest, Midwest, South and Southeast think you don't have a Central American and Mexican illegal problem, it's just around the corner. Just don't forget to call them a "wetback" so they'll feel right at home.
We had some "Wetbacks" in our home about a week ago putting in our carpet and they do work their asses off. My wife had a big laugh about my "racial slur", saying "Is he kidding? That is  what we have always called them"

It does not mean that they are not welcome.  Hardly. Kevin I married into a Mexican family from San Antonio. You ought to see me when they have a family events.  Very caring and loving
people. I'm the only "honke".  Down in Texas they call them
"Illegals", "Wets" and "Wetbacks" and it is not at all derogatory. It is common.
