Now would be the ideal time to craft a racist joke due to the entirety of the crew speaking Spanish on Charlotte, NC construction project. I’m not gonna do it. Besides, three Mexicans walk into a bar, is too perfect.

Mexicans or NC locals you're going to need a translator either way. |

Re: ~Scaffold Collapses In Charlotte North Carolina~
Looks like some kind of custom built piece of junk made of cheap planks. Proper construction scaffolding looks almost like a metal cage with multiple levels and even stairs. The floor pieces tend to have grating and holes so that they don't get slippery. If it was a badly assembled proper scaffolding, then there should be metal rods and platings scattered everywhere. All I see is thin wooden planks.

James Bowie looks over the wall of the Alamo in 1836 and sees hundreds of Mexicans approaching. Bowie asks, "are we pouring concrete today? |

I don't see anything I'd describe as scaffold in that video. |

They are not sleeping on the job. Nor are they getting up.
