Day Labor - Nuisance or Right
"Day Laborers are becoming a source of trouble for towns where large numbers congregate near parks and residential areas. Towns, like Freehold, N.J., have tried to control the situation, but have run into opposition from the ACLU who defend the illegal aliens. Police departments cite problems with drugs, alcohol, and harassment of women. Day Laborers have become a huge nuisance to many communities." This entire paragraph seems slanted towards an anti-immigrant bias to me. The article in and of itself also seems to be strongly all day laborers are illegal immigrants. I think this paragraph, and probably the entire article, should be gone over for NPOV. Gorovich 00:00, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
- That paragraph is long gone. I softened the last paragraph, but it should really have a source for the criticism. I think it's reasonably NPOV now.--Chaser - T 04:23, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
- Seems like illegal alien status is not a required precursor to drug use and harassment of men/women. Walk a scantly clad woman/man past any group of construction workers (male or female) and see what happens, drugs or no drugs. The fact drug screening is a common part of labor screening and post accident procedures indicates the observable drug use is just a result of the labor standing in public, not that it is day labor. Seems the problem is not day labor but the fact people are standing on the side of the street rather than working. If allowing actively unemployed people to stand on the street is a nuisance to the public then maybe it should have a paragraph or its own article. If the debate about defining illegal public loitering to specific segments of the population versus the right to stand on a sidewalk applies to labor then it also should have a paragraph or link to an article. Just my two cents. Granite07 (talk)
