Backfire: Illegal Alien Marches Lift the Veil

"As Mickey Kaus points out, the reporters at the Los Angeles Times (and all other major media, for that matter) have downplayed the radical ethnic separatism that characterized the pro-illegal immigration rallies over the weekend. While the Times misleadingly asserted that the Los Angeles rally "featured more American flags than those from any other country," its reporters conveniently ignored marchers with extremist signs and banners advocating America-undermining concepts of reconquista and Aztlan," notes Michelle Malkin on her site. Most of the members of the open-borders media won't dare breathe a word about this militant phenomenon, lest they be accused of...racism. Oh, the irony. Welcome to reconquista. Where are all the assimilationists now?" she asks.

Instapundit's Glen Reynolds also finds fault with the marches: "I think there's a political aspect, too, having to do with the effort of people who aren't citizens, and aren't here legally, to wield political power within the United States. I think this has a particularly unfortunate resonance in light of recent events in Europe. It's not The Camp of the Saints, but I think it has overtones of that sort." In an earlier post he said, "Illegal immigrants as individuals just trying to make a better life are sympathetic. Illegal immigrants as a mass movement making demands on the polity are considerably less so. I'm not the only one to get this impression, as Mickey Kaus's report on the rallies in Los Angeles indicates. I think that these marches just made passage of strict immigration laws much more likely."

Comments

My friends and family were all alarmed--and noted every single Mexican flag carried by these protestors.

One wryly stated that he knew that their employers "put them up to it and probably paid them a day's wages to come and bused them in to do it" because, as he noted, "their jobs all require you to work on Saturday, don't they?" Ha! Pretty astute, I say!

And don't we all remember how we are supposed to "bring these good 'folks' out of the shadows"? Well, bush--HERE THEY ARE! Not only out of the shadows but having the gall to announce their illegal presence and demand "rights" to which they have no claim at all! Makes one a little nostalgic for the good ol' shadows, doesn't it??!

Where was, again, all this bravura and courage in Mexico where/when they needed it?? If you want to protest, go home and protest against the one who mistreated you to the point that you felt compelled to break the law of this land and enter illegally.

This really simply forced everyone to really "see" them as the large group that they are and see the danger in having so many among us like this.

The sign in this article says it all. You can thank our pitiful government, and the left wing bleeding heart liberals for the chaos. These dillusional people think the southwest U.S. is Mexico`s. The jobs Americans won`t do, looking for a better life rhetoric is all a crock of ****! The next couple of weeks could very well be the destruction of this country. Where is ICE when all these illegals are gathered? Just goes to show you they do nothing, because too them illegals don`t have to follow the laws. No other country in the world would tolerate the disgrace you see on t.v.. This is just a pathetic display of our government at work. Illegal aliens in the streets of America making demands. Wake up people, our country is being flushed rite down the toilet rite before our eyes!!!

From what I saw on the television new coverage of the march in L.A. all I saw were Mexican flags.

If these people want som desperately to come to this country and become citizens (1) get rid of the Mexican flag, (2) get rid of the hyphenation of nationality , (3) Assimilate into our society - don't try and change it into the cesspool that Mexico is and (4) go back to your country of citizenship and legally apply for entry into the United States. Until you do you are not welcomed here to take ANY job!

The parade in Milwaukee on Thursday, March 23, featured caricature Halloween masks of my congressman, James Sensenbrenner, who was the butt of mendacious distortions of what he advocated in the bill that came out of the Judiciary Committee. In Waukesha his "town hall meeting" was met by noisy demonstrators. Last night I attended his peaceful meeting in Menomonee Falls, in which he cogently explained his views. I made the following statement:

Congressman Sensenbrenner:
That Thursday parade appalled, unsettled, and incensed many a patriotic citizen. (Incidentally, Senator Feingold has initiated something called the Progressive Patriots Fund; so the word “patriot” is no longer politically incorrect). No intelligent person can miss the irony implied by the name of the parade’s sponsor, an organization whose aim is to eliminate the virtual control of our frontiers. If its rhetoric were logical, it would not call itself Voces de la Frontera (Voices of the Frontier) but Voces contra la Frontera (Voices Against the Frontier). I do not know whether its members are open-borders libertarians, superannuated yippies, anarchists, or foreign agents. Perhaps they are merely persons who sympathize with aliens whose first contact with our country involved breaking its laws. What I do know is that their vicious attitude towards you is unconscionable.
At least the other group that revels in slandering you, the National Council of La Raza, shows its true colors by its very name, which implies racism. In order to pursue its agenda of justifying illegal immigration, it takes advantage of our sense of collective guilt for past and possibly present injustice to African-Americans and Native Americans. Their purpose is to dip their spoons into other people’s soup.
Some legislators keep telling us that we are all immigrants or descended from immigrants. Well, when my ancestors immigrated to this country in the 1850’s, our army was making room for them by displacing and exterminating its native inhabitants, and slavery was enhancing its prosperity. My ancestors benefited from this cruelty, and so has every wave of immigration, which, along with the bounty of the land, inherited the nation’s collective guilt. There is no innate virtue in being an immigrant. There is virtue in accepting this collective guilt as part of one’s inheritance if one is not descended from slaves or victims of territorial acquisition. Advocates for illegal aliens are using our sense of collective guilt for their own agenda. Let us not fall into their rhetorical trap.
If truth be told, the basic objection to the Minutemen is that they have no sense of humor. Our frontiers are an international joke and they can’t laugh it off.
How long are foreign nations incapable of controlling their natality, or unwilling to do so, use the United States of America, our home, as an escape valve for their overpopulation? żUntil the overpopulation balances out and we too become a third-world country? If the integrity of our frontiers is neglected, then overcrowded lands will fail to take effective action to halt their population explosion.
Senator Hillary Clinton is not the first person to take the Lord’s name in vain in connection with illegal aliens. Someone who knows my views regarding the population explosion caused by illegal aliens and their anchor babies did so by implication, saying to me: “So there’s no room at the inn, hey?” And I replied: “Illegal aliens are not the baby Jesus, and the United States of America is not an inn. It’s my home.”
Our borders are my first line of defense. Persons who make a fortune by employing cheap illegal alien labor may afford to live in gated communities or apartment buildings with squads of doormen. They can leave their front doors open. So perhaps they don’t care.
There is a limit to our natural resources; we cannot overexploit them without dangerously polluting the environment. Human occupation of land also limits access to these resources. Hence, whether through shortages or overexploitation, overpopulation will eventually cause misery. If pseudo-liberals tolerate illegal immigration because they believe that the miserable will automatically vote for them, they are in for a big surprise, because the miserable may be sufficiently desperate to prefer a dictatorship.
Advocates for illegal aliens have publicly displayed their true colors at last, and the American people will no longer be fooled by their specious rhetoric. We are all beholden to you, Congressman Sensenbrenner, for upholding the inviolacy of our homeland.

These people are here ILLEGALLY. That means that they are breaking the law. If any of us citizens break the law, we know that we are going to be held accountable. These people could be rapists, thieves, kidnappers, murderers, drug dealers, or any other kind of criminals not including being here illegally. They do NOT have the right to be here, they do NOT have the right to have a say in staying here because by just being here, they are BREAKING THE LAW! I want them all rounded up and taken back to Mexico, or anywhere else that they came from, and then they can go through the LEGAL process of coming into OUR country. Yeah, yeah, they are all saying that this country was built by immigrants. No kidding! But those immigrants were NOT here ILLEGALLY, they came through the right way and through Ellis Island. Go there and look at the books of names of people who did. These people are taking our jobs, taking food stamps from Americans, taking free medical, dental, and education from us taxpayers. WE, the PEOPLE of the United States are paying the ILLEGALS way!
I'm in California and our Governor won't even legalize Ferrets in this state until they do an "environmental impact" to see how they might impact our society if they get loose. Well, I wish somebody had done an "environmental impact, fiscal impact, educational impact and other studies" before trying to put a lid on this Pandora's Box that has been open for too long.
Yes, I do sympathize with their plight in Mexico, but if they don't like it, then they should start a revolution down there and clean it up. Don't come up here with your gang banger kids and graffiti my country. We are about to close the door on you and start the clean up process! BUSH HEAR OUR WORDS!!! GET THEM THE HELL OUT OF OUR COUNTRY!!! It isn't theirs, it's ours. If someone steals something from you and you see them with it and prove it's yours, you can get it back. They are stealing from us and we want it to stop!

Just as I was reading the above article on Monday some kids drove down the street yelling Viva Mehico.

BACKFIRE!!!

The country got a look at these goons up close and personal on Saturday! I drove downtown in an attempt to park and walk around but had to park 2 miles away. I can't describe the hostility I encountered as I walked around the perimeter of the demonstration- - being one of the few non-Mexicans in the crowds. EVERYONE had a Mexican flag of one sort or another...MOST of the signs were in Spanish...MOST of the Mexicans were chanting in Spanish. It's the one time I wished I could understand their damn language. Their handlers were all over the place...LA Raza, Mexcan consulates, etc. This was not some spur of the moment demonstration - the placards were pre-printed and the white shirts were special ordered. Believe me, it must have cost a boatload to organize La Marcha Grande. I would love to see the dollar figures and a list of contributors.

The government run Pravda tv networks TOTALLY ignored the ANTI-AMERICAN spirit of this mass reconquista crowd. I personally saw hundreds of reconquistas stomping on the American flags they were forced to carry as they were leaving. I was spat at as I walked through the crowds. But it was all done out of the sight of tv cameras and police. They know what they're doing.

As I write this post, I am watching local news in LA as thousands of Mexican banchess are cutting school and running loose thru the streets. The reporter just asked one kid why he is protesting and he said "Cuz they want to build a long ass fence to keep us out."

These people are simply appalling and repulsive, and I saw it up close and personal. They will NEVER assimilate and if ANY type of guest worker program is legislated, their defiance and arrogance will know NO BOUNDS.

I have a message for Senor bush: These people are OUT OF THE SHADOWS. And have been for decades. Intimidation is their game and reconquista is their aim.

The decades old de facto war by the Reconquistas is nearly complete. Amnesty = SURRENDER. Period. No second chances. This is it!!! Finito!!!

It is so interesting to hear a politician like BUSH talk out of both sides of his mouth at the same time. On one side he's talking to a bunch of immigrants who legally gained citizenship. He's touting how they did it legally. He is commending them and telling them that this nation is a nation of laws. Out of the other side of his mouth he's telling them that we have large numbers of people sneaking into this country against our laws but we are a nation of laws . . blah, blah, blah!

OK George. Quit the doubletalk and step up to the plate. Back the citizens of THIS country and deny amnesty! Deny benefits to illegals! Watch the television and see all the Mexican flags being flown at these illegal rallys. Do you think if these people had any respect for our country and our laws they would sneak in, destroy our environment, take our jobs and fly the flag of their home country instead of the country they "think is so great" but do not respect it?

Get a grip and pull your head out! Face reality. These people don't want anything but what they can get for free!

Posted by: Sick 'n Tired on March 27, 2006 03:27 PM

Thanks to Michelle Malkin and others for pointing out the other side of this protest, mainly the audacity and utter gall of non-citizens telling us how to run this country. Sickening! and that goes for the pro-immigrant organizations and their biased, out of line rhetoric, about what they will and will not accept.
I especially love the signs about the USA being stolen property and Mexico's homeland.
Do you really think the American people are stupid enough to believe that this country is what it is today, because of a handful of Mexicans in the 1800's? Santa Ana was a pi**-poor military man, who was too stupid to quit while he was ahead. He lost Mexico to us and that's the end of it.
European immigrants, legal and assimilated ones, built this nation, and later, born and bred Americans did the same. To act like the Hispanics hold "higher than everyone else" position in this country is downright disgusting. This type of thing, just strengthens my resolve for no amnesty or citizenship or guestworker programs.

This all sounds great in theory but no one is addressing what the illegals who aren't rapists and murders cost us each year. They are clogging our schools and emergency rooms but there are the unseen costs.

For three years, I had a woman and her 4 anchor babies living downstairs from me. The children were left unattended from the time they got home from school until 8 or 9pm each night. For 3 hours each evening, I had to listen to the children running back and forth, slamming doors, blasting music and putting holes in the walls everyday after work for 3 years and it only got worse towards the end. My entire apartment would shake and stuff was constantly falling off the walls. The roach infestation from these freaks was unbearable. The landlord was finally able to get rid of them about a year ago.

The apartment was uninhabitable when they left. There was $3,500 worth of damage to the place and the landlord was unable to rent it for over 3 months while fixing the damage. In all, $6,000 lost. The tennants were warned by the judge who evicted them not to cause any damage to the apartment before leaving. A lot of good that did. Most of the damage was caused during the last week before they moved. I heard what they did. Just imagine what their current landlord has to look forward to.

We are all paying for this people and they know that they have all the rights. Absolutely nothing will happen to them. There is no punishment for their behavior.

Posted by: ungabunga on March 27, 2006 03:38 PM

You are right, Independent One. These bold, hateful gatherings would be the perfect opportunity for our government to round up illegals and ship them back to where they came from.
Too bad our government is inept and yellow in that regard.
They'd rather play the "humanitarian" card and call lawbreakers, immigrants.
They're afraid of offending others.
They cling to that outdated notion of us being a superpower whose duty it is to help others.
I wonder what history will say of this country if our stupid officials make the wrong decisions on this issue and screw us into the ground.
Get ready Third World Cesspool!
Not only would no other country put up with this nonsense of illegals demanding rights, but they would not allow the garbage that goes on with immigration lawyers and court cases either.
They would come up with a solution and ENFORCE IT.

Just look at the images on t.v. my fellow citizens. The war has begun rite here in our own country, by people who don`t even belong here. These people are the real RACISTS! This is only the beginning of the chaos. If the illegals don`t get there way, the streets will erupt in violence, nice country we now live in. As a young American, what I see on t.v. makes me sick! It`s a slap in the face to the legal immigrants. Jorge Bush has got alot of nerve going to a new citizen swearing in ceremony. He`s just selling them out just like he sells us out. The morons in congress just sit there and do nothing, while this chaos just continues. This country will be a third world toilet sooner then you think. It`s time to fight for America my friends, if not, kiss it bye bye!

It makes me absolutely sick to watch Congress slide behind the amnesty banner and try to sell us a flawed bill of goods!!!

Posted by: takn on March 27, 2006 05:07 PM

It's like 1994 all over again. Mass demonstrations. HR4437 will pass. Republicans will lose elections. No one will enforce HR4437. Possible path to citizenship for illegals will prevail in the Senate. In 10 years the latino majority of CA will be able to vote and then things will really take off!

Posted by: Joe on March 27, 2006 05:20 PM

They are from the 5th wealthiest country in the world. They have more natural resources per square foot than the U.S. But, THEY want us to ruin our schools, hospitals, S.S. system, Welfare system,. food stamp system, so they can have landscaping jobs and work at Burger Joint. Someone arrest those damn Senators that are talking about a work program and amnesty. This is land that my family fought in war after war for and I won't even use assisstance unless absolutely necessary. Our schools will never educate one American correctly, they will be tied up in political correctness by sympathizers in court for the next 20 years. If you haven't looked out the window lately MEXICANS AREN'T A MINORITY.

Posted by: Patriot-L on March 27, 2006 05:42 PM

One last thing I have to say. I would bet if anyone dug into the finances and motivation of these organizers, we would discover mexican gov't hand in some of this. The mexican gov't has openly lobbied our sell-out pols for amnesty and unlimited guest workers. This is the perfect way to bring pressure. Threat of mass riots and anarchy if they are not appeased. And of course our pols will appease. I have yet to see how a policy of appeasement has ever worked. "Give an inch, take a mile" comes to mind. And don't bleive for a second that the mexican gov't would not revert to subversive tactics. I am sick of the whole matter. We do not live in a democracy.

Shelby, I bow to you. Your dooms day scenarios are indeed coming to life. I only hope I can accumulate enough wealth to get the hell out of this country, while still providing a comfortable life for my family, before this whole thing implodes. I will begin considering gold in my portfolio. Thank you for your insight. And my apologies for being beligerant in the past. The pols can have the f****d up country they so desire. I hate them all.

Every citizen, every legal immigrant, and every veteran who fought and died for this country is being betrayed and stabbed in the back by our own government and the rich business's who profit from illegal immigation.

Illegal immigrants are being offered lower interest rates on morgages than citizens by banks like Citibank. Universities are offering them instate tuition rates that are not offered to those born here.

I could go on and on, but do I have to. Who doesn't know whats going on. The politicians who don't have to live with the results of their ideas are ruining this country and its now the 11th hour.

The great lie is that illegal immigrants are doing work Americans won't do, well please explain to me how it was getting done before. I will never again vote for another republican or democrat.

Posted by: Joseph Franchella on March 27, 2006 09:11 PM

I wonder if people realize the true ramification of this? Once employers realize that they can now hire cheap workers that were once illegal, there will be a flood of layoffs of American workers. Just watch as soon as this think truly kicks in how many native born Americans are kicked to the curb for cheaper workers. I am sure the same level of compassion shown to the illegals will be strangely absent when that occurs. How any politician can lie and say this is in the best interests of America is a total lie. The truth is out in the sunshine now. The republican and democratic parties represent one thing and one thing only: their corporate masters, who to be able to compete with China, need to reduce the workers of this country to 3rd world pay levels. An additional benefit is that they are importing people used to the system of government they want in the U.S. : a ruling class over a serfdom. Thats what has existed in Mexico for 500 years. They want it here, but they realize they will have to breed out the anglos to do it. Well a first big step was taken to achieve that with this bill. One way we can fight back is to boycott ANY company who adopts the practice of replacing American workers with guest workers.

IT'S A SHAME THAT WE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE LET SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN IN OUR BACK YARD, WHEN THESE ILLEGALS ARE TRASPASSING . THESE PEOPLE SHOULD HAVE BEEN ARREST AND DEPORTED AT THE SPOT. I ALSO WOULD LIKE TO SAY THAT WHAT THEY DID SHOULD NOT BE ADMIRE AS SOMETHING SPECIAL, BUT SHOULD BE TAKEN AS COWARDS MARCHING IN A FOREIGN LAND ,FOR THEY WOULD HAVE NEVER DARE TO THIS IN THERE HOMELAND. IT'S ALSO A SHAME ,THAT THEY DISPLAY THEIR HOMELAND FLAGS IN OUR STREET , IT ALL GO TO SHOW YOU HOW THESE PEOPLE ARE IGNORANT AND THEY LACK EDUCATIONS ,FOR IT THEY WERE VERY WELL EDUCATED , THEY WOULD REALIZE THAT FLAG THEY WERE DISPLAYING IT IS THE CAUSE OF THEM,TO BE HERE HERE IN THE FIRST PLACE , FOR THESE COUNTRY EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE WELL OF ECONOMICALLY THEY ONLY SHARE THE WEALTH WITH THE FEW AND DO NOT LET ANY ONE ELSE PROGRESS IN THEIR HOMELAND TO CONTINUE EXPLOIT THEM AND THEIR NEXT GENERATIONS . THE LACK OF EDUCATIONS THAT THESE FOREIGNS KIDS HAVE , MAKE THEM EASY TARGET FOR THE EVIL MEXICAN POLITICIANS TO BRAIN WASH THEM, SAYING TO THEM THAT THEIR HOMELAND ONCE OWN THESE LAND AND BY DISPLAYING THEIR HOMELAND FLAG IT WILL RETURN THESE LAND BACK TO THEIR HOMELAND WITHOUT FIRING A SINGLE SHOT . WITHOUT REALIZING THAT IF THIS LAND EVER RETURN TO THE HOMELAND THEY SO ADMIREL , IT WILL DESTROY THEIR FUTURE , AND ALSO THEY WOULD LOOSE EVERY SINGLE RIGHT , AND FREEDOM THAT THEY ENJOY TODAY , FOR THE POLITICIANS OF THE HOMELAND THEY SO MUCH ADMIREL WOULD BRING THEIR CORRUPTION TO THIS LAND AND WILL MAKE EVERY SINGLE CITY A DUMP AND ONLY THE FEW FAMILIES THAT DOMINATED THEIR HOMELAND WILL BE THE ONES THAT WILL DOMINATED HERE ALSO , AND THEY AS THEIR PARENTS WILL HAVE TO IMMIGRATE TO ANOTHERE COUNTRY OR STATE TO BE ABLE TO PROGRESS . IF THIS WHAT EVERY SINGLE AMERICANS THAT DISPLAY THE FOREIGN FLAG WANT FOR THEIR FUTURE AND THEIR CHILDREN FUTURE CONTINUE ADMIRING THE FLAGS OF DISTRUCTIONS , OTHERWISE PUT THEM AWAY AND BRING THE FLAG OF PROGRESS OUT THE AMERICAN FLAG . FOR IT EVEN THOUGH WE ARE NOT PERFECT COUNTRY , EVERY SINGLE PERSON HAS THE OPPORTUNITY TO SUCEED , AND THE SKY IS THE LIMIT. SHOW YOUR AMERICAN SPIRIT PROTECT YOUR COUNTRY FROM THE EVIL EMPIRES,OUR NEXT DOOR NEIGHBOR .AMERICANS FIRST AND FOREVER.

I believe that you'll find this Columbus Ohio news item of interest, "Fighting to live the American dream". (An absurd title designed to obfuscate the real issues just as in the more widely covered protests in places like LA.)

There's a description of how some protestors had "jousting flags" -- Mexican and American. Illegal alien supporters claim that illegals are in the U.S. by right. The article makes clear that most of the protesters are monolingual spanish-speakers. This protest is in the heart of the American midwest in "red state" Ohio.

I'm not shocked -- SW Ohio schools are now seeing an influx of illegals from Mexico. In nearby Lebanon, Warren County, Ohio -- a favorite campaign stop of President Bush in the last election -- there is a large and growing population of Mexican illegals. All of this is ignored by the alleged Republican conservatives who control Ohio’s state government. They’re already busy resettling Somali “refugees” in the Columbus area without objection; they apparently share the open borders views of Bush and McCain.

As I mentioned, the children of illegal aliens (Mexican nationals) are now in the ultra-Republican Warren County, Lebanon, Ohio public schools being educated at taxpayer expense. This is a school district with financial troubles but the illegal aliens don’t care; they’ve added to the financial burden of taxpayers and caused additional expense as a full-time "ESL" teacher had to be hired to serve the "needs" (ESL, or "English as a Second Language") of illegal alien children who don’t speak English.

The picture in the Columbus Dispatch article below shows vividly how non-American the illegal alien protesters are. Dressed in the costumes of their native countries, they intend force their will on the U.S. and law-abiding American citizens.

The best quote really came out of this protest -- more radical than other statements quoted at bigger rallies:

"We are not strangers. We are not immigrants. We were born on this continent and this continent belongs to us."

If we had real national security and the rule of law, police would have detained protestors and arrested people suspected of being illegal aliens.

Weary Citizen,

Thank you. I'm grateful for your appreciation of my research. And I'm grateful to you for your past effort with MinuteMan watch in Texas. BTW, I am in Corpus Christi, TX until April 22. The trend may be towards ex-urban, in lieu of leaving the USA:

http://www.hsdent.com/Content/choosing%20area.cfm
http://www.hsdent.com/realestate.html

The demographics of Corpus Christi has changed since I was last here in 2003. It appears many of the younger Mexicans have left (assume gone to do construction in booming areas of country) and replaced by Central American illegals. More restaurants are switching exclusively to Spanish and Spanish TV, although they make an attempt to hide it when I enter (blonde hair, blue eyes).

These marches, although maybe a slight backfire in mainstream public awareness, are in my mind more importantly a sign of the crazy period we are entering towards the massive boomer debt bubble which will pop around 2010. As the debt bubble accelerates, then pops, we will see increasing desperation. We are only seeing the tip of the iceberg, because many people are still feeling illusionary wealth, or at least not desperation yet. Only those of us who see the future desperation, can plan and escape before the mad rush comes...

I have read all the comments on this site about what just happened to this country, by a bunch of blowhards in Washington D.C. It's time to stop bloviating and show the government that we AMERICANS are fed up with their pandering for votes and not hearing what most of the population demands. Please participate in this event!!!
posting comments are great, but the time is to put your money where your mouth is.

A DAY WITHOUT AMERICANS - APRIL 17TH, 2006!

In response to the recent mass national rallies fearlessly staged by the illegal alien lobby, The Dustin Inman Society is suggesting that Americans nationwide stay home from work and not spend any money on April 17. 2006 - income tax day.

The country and its government needs to witness a day without Americans.

Posted by: Carolyn on March 28, 2006 02:59 PM

The backlash is real. My father has for years grudgingly, passively supported the invasion of millions of illegals across our southern border. But then he watches the news and sees half-a-million people marching in a single city. No more. He called both of his senators and gave them a piece of his mind.

The best part of all is that the people most likely to vote - older people - are also the people most likely to watch television newscasts, and they no what's going on now.

Posted by: Craig on March 28, 2006 03:17 PM

I am a millionair American and i hope every illegal alien gets a visa. Why because i don't need to work so i dont care about any of you poor bastards that lose your job. Besides i like these people they are hard working not lazy like most Americans they never complain like most Americans do so all you working stiffs get ready for a big change cause these people are here to stay and if you don't like it then maybe you should leave. Later losers

Ok then, now that we've flushed them out of their roach motels and the Feds helped us out with a rate hike, we can now hope for a steady downturn in housing starts to flush them out of their undergroung construction job hiding places.

This could also flush out the jobless AMERICAN construction workers to finally fight for what's theirs?

With any luck, this could all turn out very well for patriotic minded Americans as it will play out on the small screen news media outlets.

We may even begin to see, once again, where America ends and Mexico starts! Keep your fingers crossed.

PS. DO NOT FORGET THE TRAITORS AMONGST US (IN CONGRESS) COME ELECTION TIME.

A day without Americans - April 17, 2006!

In response to the recent mass national rallies fearlessly staged by the illegal alien lobby, The Dustin Inman Society is suggesting that Americans nationwide stay home from work and not spend any money on April 17. 2006 - income tax day.

The country and its governmnet needs to witness a day without Americans.

It is not an overstatement to observe that the federal government has abandoned the American people and we teeter on the brink of national suicide.

The well-funded illegal alien lobby has been successful in galvanizing the millions of illegal aliens in the nation to march in American streets demanding no less than open borders, continued selective law enforcement and amnesty for people who should be in fear of apprehension and deportation.

It has also galvanized many Americans who are seeing for the first time the true nature and result of our intentionally unsecured borders.

Enough!

The message to the U. S. government and the world is that another amnesty for illegals is tantamount to erasing any pretense of a nation of secure borders, rule of law and a common language. Amnesty - by any name - does not stop illegal immigration.

We have reached the point in our national history at which we as a nation must choose whether to resist …or to wave the white flag of surrender.

We are suggesting that Americans who do not work in medical, law enforcement or emergency capacities stay home from work on April 17 and that we, as a united people, reply to the government that has refused to protect us by refraining from spending any money. Those who have nothing to fear from violating any law that is not beneficial to them are not the only group with power in these United States.

We are demanding that the American government offer the same protection in the United States that the Mexican government provides its people.

This is our country. We dishonor our grandfathers if we do not try to protect the republic that was lovingly passed on to us.

A national day of public opposition to illegal immigration April 17, 2006 !

Hey there, GENE aka Jose,

From the looks of your spelling, sentence structure, and sytax, my guess is that you ain't no millionaire. Looks like you're just another illegal freeloader contaminating our country.

Get a schedule from Greyhound Bus Co. and go back where you came from...I'm pretty sure Greyhound goes to Tijuana.

IT'S SEEM THAT THE REPUBLICANS DON'T WANT TO ENFORCE THE LAWS THAT WE ALREADY HAVE IN THE BOOKS OF FINING THE EMPLOYERS FOR HIRING ILLEGAL ALIENS , FOR THEY ARE AFRAID THEY ARE NOT GOING TO GET MONEY FOR THEIR NEXT CAMPAING . ON THE OTHER SIDE THEY DON'T WANT TO DEPORT THE ILLEGALS ALIENS FOR THEY ARE A FRAID THE LATINO VOTE WILL GO TO THE DEMOCRATS . LET FACE IT COMPANY THAT HAVE ILLEGALS ALIENS AS EMPLOYEES ARE NOT ONLY EXPLOITING THEM , THEY ARE ALSO RIPPING THE AMERICAN PEOPLE FOR ONE THEY CHARGING US FOR THE PRODUCT IF THEY WERE PAYING AN AMERICAN WORKER ,SECOND OF WE THE CITIZEN ARE PAYING (illegals ) THE MEDICAL BILL AND PROVIDING THEM WITH FOOD STAMPS TO COMPENSATE FOR THEIR MISERABLE PAID, THIRDLY THE COMPANIES ARE NOT PAYING TAXES TO THE STATES AND FEDERAL GOVERNMENT FOR THEY ARE REPORTING FEW HOURS OR NOT REPORTING THEM TO THE SYSTEM . SO FINING THEM FOR HIRING ILLEGALS IT WOULD BE THE MOST REASON THING TO DO, SO, WE AT LEAST CAN RECUPERATE SOME OF THE MONEY THAT THEY BEEN RIPPING US OFF IN THE DIFFERENT MATTER MENTION ABOVE, FOR THIS ACTION THE PEOPLE FOR SURE WILL VOTE FOR THEM FOR THEY WILL ALWAYS BACK SOMEONE WHO WATCH OVER THEIR INTEREST(THE AMERICAN PEOPLE) . NOW IN THE SECOND MATTER OF LOOKING BAD WITH THE LATINOS FOR DEPORTING THE ILLEGALS ALIENS AND THINKING THAT WILL LOOSE THEIR VOTE , IT'S MORE POSSIBLE , THAT WILL HAPPEN IF THEY DON'T START DEPORTING , FOR BELIEVE ME, NOT EVERY LATINO WANT THE ILLEGALS HERE, BECAUSE THEY ARE ONE'S THAT SUFFER WITH THEM IN COMPETING FOR A JOB , AND THEY ALSO LIVE WITH THEM, AND THEY SEE HOW THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD IS GOING DOWN THE DRAIN WITH THEM STAYING, AND HOW THEIR (ILLEGALS )ACTIONS , ARE DAMAGING THE IMAGE OF THE HONEST WORKING LATINO ,TO THE REST OF THE WORLD. THE REPUBLICANS SHOULD TAKE A STAND TODAY ON THE ISSUE OF THE ILLEGALS , PASS A BILL THAT WILL DEPORT THEM NOW AND DON'T PROVIDE THEM AMNESTY, THINKING THAT WITH IT ,THEY ARE GOING TO VOTE TOMORROW REPUBLICANS . THEY ARE NOT, THEY MIGHT NOT EVEN VOTE AT ALL, AND IF THEY DO, THEY ARE GOING TO VOTE DEMOCRAT , SO IT WON'T MATTER TO THEM ,THE REPUBLICANS ACTIONS . PLEASE DON'T COME OUT WITH EXCUSE THAT DEPORTING 12MILLIONS ILLEGAL ,IT NOT POSSIBLE . LET ME GIVE YOU A PHRASE THAT I SAW IN THE MOVIE OF THE GODFATHER .(NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE , IT MIGHT BE DIFFICULT ,BUT NOT IMPOSSIBLE ) OR ( WHEN THERE IS A WILL , THERE IS A WAY) THE END

Gene, aka Pedro, I don't believe you are wealthy, because you cannot even spell the world millionaire; so I find it difficult to believe you are one let alone a citizen of this country. Your taxes would be paying for a lot of illegals; and you would not be happy, if you were truly an American citizen. Your grammer and spelling certainly is similar to one, who can barely function using the English language. Nice try, but no cigar--not even a Cuban one. It must be odd to not only be an international criminal and a liar, but a deluded one at that. All of these traits would make you ineligible to be a citizen of this country, according to our immigration laws. You are mentally deranged, and it's very evident. Go home Pedro and take a few of your other "millionaire" pals with you. Trust me, you won't be missed at all-- by anyone. Viva, America!

"Keep your fingers crossed."

That just about sums it up for me. Apathetic Americans are now getting a glimps of what has festered just beyond their little corner of the country; but is it too little too late? The open borders coalition has good presidence to believe they can still prevail. One example is here in Massachusetts. Years ago, our State supreme court Chief Justice Margret Marshall TOLD lawers retained by 'gay' activists that they would prevail in her court if they sued for the right to marry in a Mass. court. The rest is history, except the effort to put the issue before the voters. Two petitions for a referendum were validated; and then disregarded in the State senate. This clearly violates our State constitution. At that time, poles had the voters defining marrage as one man and one woman by a large majority. But, during the last few years, public opinion on the issue has changed. Having had 'gay' marrage conjured by activist judges and (then) senate President Birmingham, it now just seems like part of the landscape. People seem to think that, well, since it's already here, I guess it must be okay. Now, acording to poles, that illegally denied referendum would barely pass.

I mention this with no prejudice in the gay marrage issue itself. I only am pointing out the success of that method.

Thanks for telling Gene off, Mexiphobic.
He's so funny in his classlessness.
Talking about good character traits and such and then making a statement about Americans with jobs.
Fortunes have been lost. Here's hoping he loses his. Do you think the ladies or any skilled employer will want him then?

Isn't reconquista the same as Zionism?
