So another human being gets beaned on a construction site.
Just a minor cost of doing business. And if he is undocumented, he cannot even vote.
So, WTF should any pol care about his life?

With the rash of development ineptitude and accidents happening, I have been humming the toreador song from Carmen as I am reading these stories.
