Nope, wasn't there, but I sure do find it funny when a bunch of folks have a thousand dollar gun they can't figure out how to use properly and know enough of the language to have been here a day and a half. Usually successful folks in this country have to have some kind of grasp on how to communicate in the lingua franca to make money honestly. A Python isn't a necessity of life by any means, so it would be wise to conclude these folks weren't living hand-to-mouth as farm workers. I then ask myself how they got enough dead presidents together to buy such a righteous gat. I don't like the answer that comes to mind.
What's wrong with construction work? Why don't you like that answer? A lot of the immigrants in our area make a good living working hard -- at jobs most "americans" won't touch. They live within thier means and can afford many things I can't. When you don't have a car payment, or rent or the 1000 other bills americans think are needed to live you can actually put back a good sum of money quickly. I find it humorous that the one lesson no one seems to learn in life is not to judge a book by its cover. It doesn't matter if the teacher is Mom or God, few people take it to heart.
