Postville Follow-Up: FAIR’s National Field Director Reports from Scene of Largest ICE Enforcement Raid A day after the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agency conducted its largest raid on a meatpacking plant in Postville, Iowa, FAIR’s national field director, Susan Tully, visited Postville to assess the situation. The raid occurred on Monday.
During her trip to Postville, Susan interviewed local residents and officials. She found local townspeople hopeful that the enforcement effort to restore their town to some sense of normalcy, and that the companies that have been exploiting illegal workers and burdening the town with crippling costs would be punished. Susan interviewed town officials who have been struggling to cope with the impact of mass illegal immigration. Susan also encountered an advocacy network dedicated to obstructing the enforcement of immigration laws. The Illegal Alien Advocacy Network At the center of the effort to provide sanctuary for the illegal aliens is St. Bridget’s Catholic Church. According to Sister Mary, the church heard rumors of an impending ICE raid on Friday and began to prepare. Declaring that the church is “a safe home” for illegal immigrants and that “people have human rights above any laws,” St. Bridget’s is currently sheltering about 250 people. They are also actively assisting illegal aliens in obtaining legal representation through Iowa Legal Aid. Town Officials Postville officials have been coping with the growing illegal alien population for the past 20 years, but have done little to remedy the situation. Speaking to Police Chief Michael Halse, local law enforcement was fully aware that most of the people working at the packing plant were illegal, but the town did not participate in any enforcement efforts, including Monday’s ICE action.
Teachers at the local school who spoke to Susan told her that the school has been struggling to provide bilingual services to a growing number of non-English-speaking students. None of the teachers wished to be identified for fear of reprisal. But even the teachers were not aware of just how many of the kids and their families were in the country illegally. May 14, 2008

Immigrant Assimilation — Good News or Bad News? Today’s Washington Post reports “Study Says Foreigners In U.S. Adapt Quickly.” The lead-in sentence is, “Immigrants of the past quarter-century have been assimilating in the United States at a notably faster rate than did previous generations, according to a study released today [by the Manhattan Inst.].” If you read far enough down in the article to find out that this report raises red flags. “Vigdor [a Duke University professor and author of the study] also said his findings included cause for concern: most notably, the fact that the 2006 assimilation index of 28 is less than the previous low point of 42 in 1920. The difference indicates the substantial change in the composition of today's immigrants compared with earlier immigration waves.” [FAIR Comment: The dichotomy between this headline good news and the red flags sounds like the fact that any group that starts at a very low number does not have to move very far up the scale to be double or triple the starting point, i.e. you only have to add one to one to increase by 100 percent. And it sounds as if the assimilation scale created by the author starts most of today’s immigrants much lower on the scale than earlier immigrants.] Common sense should not even be an issue. Sounds a bit like another case of skewing the facts to fit the intended outcome... So, how many of those "assimilated immigrants" are illegals? Posted by: takn on May 14, 2008 02:56 AMAssimilating my backside! At any given time, in any public place I hear a minimum of 5 different languages going on around me from people who clearly seem to have no intention of assimilating to this country. I blame our government’s failure to regulate/control the level of legal immigration, and its failure to enforce existing immigration law. Not to mention the propensity of the business community to accommodate all these foreigners. For instance, the Lowe’s in my area provides Spanish subtitles throughout the store, not to mention the 5 languages available at the customer service desk. Needless to say I will not shop at Lowe’s. If we really expect people to assimilate, we ought to treat them as though they are capable of doing so. If we continue to provide for them in their native tongue and customs, why in God’s name would they feel the need to adjust? It is not our responsibility to accommodate their needs; it is their duty to respectfully assimilate to our culture, as they are for all intents and purposes in our home!! And to all you immigrants who find our culture inferior, beneath you, or offensive to your delicate sensitivities – Don’t let the screen door hit you on the way out!! THERE IS NO BALANCED POLITICS IN MAINSTREAM MEDIA ON IMMIGRATION Employer enforcement is omitted. Unplanned growth economic destruction root cause from overpopulation in America is omitted. Illegal Anchor Babies are assumed legal. Constitutional Laws on immigration are toilet paper. Illegals committing crimes are covered up or not reported. Anarchist Sanctuary cities are praised. President Candidates that fight amnesty are made to look like KKK and eliminated. SAVE Act gets no publicity. Basically, big business brainwashing runs immigration news in America's media. The economy gets worse with unplanned growth and the media tells us unplanned growth makes it better. They lie.

The big change is not in the immigrants, it is in the country they emmigrate to. The immigrants of old came to a country that was expanding, had manufacturing jobs and a huge trade surplus. Immigrants today come to a country that has welfare, affirmative action and a huge discrimination lawsuit industry. They have assimilated to this very well. Posted by: Bill Dexter on May 14, 2008 12:28 PMI'm just waiting for someone to call me a racist because I expect immigrants to assimilate to the America way of life.

Sen. Obama Courts Latinos with Driver’s Licenses According to the head of the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund (MALDEF), Oy vey... POVERTY STRICKEN AFRICAN AMERICANS The elite politicians want slave trade campaign dollars and that comes from unplanned growth in America with more and more hoards of foreigners. To Hades with the legal citizen poor in America. To Hades with the Middle Class. This has nothing to do with the neeed for more civil rights or diversity; we're already the most diverse ethnic group nation on earth, albeit a little more civil rights for the African American and high percentage other legal citizen poor ethnic groups (Caucasion too) in America would add gasoline enriched fire against Obama's elitist motives. Real legal citizen American Civil Rights means halting all unplanned growth immigration and amnesty now! Posted by: Softwarengineer on May 13, 2008 02:08 PMTo hell with those racist anglo laws like making it a criminal offense to drive while intoxicated and driving on the wrong side of the highway or freeway. The idea of having automobile insurance is so white America and who needs those stinkin seat belts- those 12 beers make you feel no pain when your head goes through the windshield, and hell, that family that you hit head on while going 110 miles per hour while driving on the wrong side of the road is dead anyway- so what good did the seat belts that they were wearing do them anyway. This is third world bizarro world America we live in now. Posted by: Future Day Laborer on May 13, 2008 03:02 PMTHIS ANTI-WHITE MIDDLE AMERICA ELITIST WILL SURRENDER OUR COUNTRY TOO THE THIRD WORLD, AND GIVE ILLEGAL ALIENS THE KEYS TOO THE COUNTRY! Posted by: American Me on May 13, 2008 03:31 PMSenator Obama has positioned himself far to the left of Clinton on immigration ever since the debate in which he denied any effects of illegal immigration on the African-American community. Readers here will remember that Clinton responded no, illegal immigration depresses wages, hurts black workers, and can be substantially reduced through our nation's foreign policy with Mexico. I agree with all of her points and consider Obama's obfuscation despicable. Despite her tougher stance on illegal immigration, Senator Clinton does far better than Obama with Latinos. If her campaign blog is any indication, she's also faring well with Lou Dobbs Democrats, demonstrating that statesmanship and resolution of this crisis is more than possible with the right leadership because it affects everyone of all ethnic groups. She's also poised to win the popular vote nationwide, so the MSM-adored Obama will have a tough battle ahead if he plans to hoodwink the entire nation into accepting his racially cynical immigration policy. Posted by: Concerned Citizen on May 13, 2008 03:51 PMI translate his statement to: "I really don't want to be president but if the American Public is so stupid to elect me (maybe not by popular vote - but by electoral votes) then I will accept the position so I will pardon all of you illegals and give you licesnes to drive on American highways." NO WAY, JOSE! He just lost any possibility of a vote from me. I guess the Libertarian who just tossed his hat into the ring will get my vote. For that matter, I might just write in Fred's name. Posted by: Sick 'n Tired on May 13, 2008 04:26 PMObama is an "open border" crazy who claims he is for working men and women. However, he is for illegal aliens taking American jobs and depressing wages. Is there a conflict of interest here?

IT`S SICKENING! ILLEGAL ALIENS CAN`T VOTE, SO WHY WOULD THIS OPEN BORDER NUT BEND OVER BACKWARDS TO GIVE THEM LICENSES. LEGAL IMMIGRANTS, AND AMERICANS OF HISPANIC DECENT COULD CARELESS ABOUT ILLEGAL ALIENS, AND MOST DON`T WANT THEM TO HAVE LICENSES EITHER. Posted by: Independent Voter on May 13, 2008 10:02 PMWhat a crock! His father was not an immigrant -- he came here to get an education, then abandoned the woman he had impregnated and the child she bore. He left for the mainland to get further U.S. education, then returned to Africa, and took a third wife. Keep going. I may decide to vote for "Dogleg McCain" after all. But keep in mind that candidates often say a lot of things that they know won't come true just to get elected. Posted by: James on May 14, 2008 07:43 AMTO INDEPENDENT VOTER: We all know that illegals "CAN'T" vote but that doesn't mean they "DON'T" vote. Go to the State of California Secretary of State website and you can register on-line and when you do that you are saying to yourself that you are a citizen - there is NOTHING to verify that citizenship. This is another shining example of why we need to show a valid photographic ID when we go to vote. Problem is; no more and more people are signing up for permanent absentee (vote by mail) status so they don't have to show an ID once they are registered. ONE PROBLEM SOLVED - ANOTHER RAISES ITS UGLY HEAD! Posted by: Sick 'n Tired on May 14, 2008 11:07 AMMay 13, 2008
Illegal Alien Raid at Iowa Kosher Meat-Packer A raid by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents yesterday apprehended about 300 We regularly read about ICE raids and deportations of illegal aliens but little information about prosecutions of illegal employers? 80% of the workforce !!! "Authorities have released about 40 workers. . .because they are primary caregivers." Okay. Now, folks, while we are processing these people, let us PLEASE, PLEASE find any and all anchor babies who were born to any parent while in the employ of Agriprocessors - AND HAND THE BILL TO THEM!! I mean it! We need a lawsuit for reimbursement for ALL the costs incurred by their crime. That means ALL the costs for health care, education, welfare, HUD amd WIC. Even if the case lost, it would be very useful to show just how expensive this 'cheap' labor is.

Posted by: Edgar on May 13, 2008 03:29 PMIt’s common these days among the ignorant to think that the employers can be easily prosecuted. The fact is that employers are only required to complete and retain a form and to check documents. Said documents can be easily forged and are available on street corners in most major cities and in many small towns throughout America and are of sufficient quality to fool the naked eye. Employers are not required to check the validity of these documents, only to review them. An employer who completes and retains the required form is difficult to prosecute. The raids against Swift & Co and Pilgrims Pride didn’t net any high level people. When they nailed Walmart a few years ago it took court approved wire taps to get the evidence. Look who’s getting hauled off to jail, some scum bag subcontractor. It’s not that simple to prosecute the employers. People that think otherwise really need to be educated on this issue. Posted by: Ralph on May 13, 2008 03:50 PMEveryone is saying throw the book at them because of the illegals - and I fully agree with all that. Nobody mentioned in their posts about the meth lab. Will the owners be thrown the book or slapped on the wrist for having a meth lab on their company land? I want to see a criminal follow-up on one of these so we can see what, if anything, is being done to these employers. Posted by: Sick 'n Tired on May 13, 2008 04:21 PMkudos for ice.

Posted by: takn on May 14, 2008 02:58 AMRalph does make a good point on this post. We need to close these loopholes that let employers get away with their criminal activity. Posted by: Dave A on May 14, 2008 09:17 AMRalph, you know full well that we are aware of the laws that make hiring illegal aliens so easy. You know that it is these laws we want to change. Saying we are ignorant of the laws we seek to change is really an avoidance response. Isn't that beneath you? Posted by: Bill Dexter on May 14, 2008 11:11 AMSoftwareengineer, I like your idea. Employers who get caught hiring illegal aliens should not only be heavily fined but also forced to pay the cost of deportation. Why should our tax dollars be used to pay for deportation when it's the employers greed that start this mess to begin with. Brian Posted by: Brian on May 14, 2008 01:06 PMMay 13, 2008

That way, we'll all prosper [down the proverbial toilet that is]. Posted by: Softwarengineer on May 13, 2008 02:23 PMSoftware, That's one thing I've never understood. By allowing this flood of illegal aliens and H1B Visa holders our government is causing a our wages to shrink which means less tax revenue collected then on top of all of that you have illegal aliens milk the system dry of our tax dollars by getting free health care, access to our schools and welfare.

This is the time to push aside Democratic leadership's plan for rigged hearings, as well as their larger plan to grant legal work permits for millions of illegal aliens currently holding jobs and huge increases in H-2B and H-1B visas for all types of foreign workers. CONTACT THESE TRAITORS, AND TELL THEM TO ENFORCE THE LAW, AND STOP SELLING US OUT, OR THEY`LL BE OUT OF A JOB AS WELL. VOTE ANTI-INCUMBENT! More B S!

We know the Republicans are totally clueless when it comes to the working class. But these Democrats have been selling out the blue collar and working class Americans on this illegal immigration issue for years now. As a long time Californian taxpayer I would like to thank the above snakes in the Demcratic Party for the enormous taxes I have paid to this state and yet can't drive on decent roads and have parks, schools, and public places overrun by illegal alien and other gangs.

Perhaps blame mainstream media for lack of credible information on it too though, brainwashing the voters in apathy. Posted by: Softwarengineer on May 12, 2008 06:05 PMCONGRESS, Independent voter, why do you care about H1 visas when you and your couch potato buddies are not having the needed skill levels for those jobs anyways? Skilled workers on H1 and L1 are paying large sums for years into your SS and Medicare funds and if we have to leave this country we cant take that money back or see benefits we paid for. We are supporting your lazy lifestyles and healthcare for your parents, grandparents, schools for you kids and so many things. It is you and your kind who are eating our money, so stop BSing around. Hey H1 bee I have my own business, and I would never hire a foreigner (who can barely speak english, and you have to redo their work 2 or 3 times too get it rite). I can use H-1B, bit never ever will, because it`s a scam and everyone familiar with it knows that. I will always hire an American worker, because the propaganda you hear that we need more hi-tech foreigners is a bunch of B.S. That`s for the greedy big business and the corporate slave politicians. Posted by: Independent Voter on May 13, 2008 03:45 PMH1 Bee No thanks for your contributions. You are taking much more away with over-population and lack of respect for the host nation. And I am very sure you will stick around here for the SS/Medicare too. Lazy voter Posted by: MS on May 14, 2008 09:26 AMTo H1 Bee, there are plenty of qualified applicants for those H1B jobs. Any employment agency could fill them all in a week. We ALL know that it's just companies wanting cheap labor. Obviously, you are inly in this country to take an American's job, not because you like Americans or our culture. Please leave and don't come back. Posted by: Dave A on May 14, 2008 11:39 AMWhy are some employers complaining about E-Verify? Because E-Verify makes it easier to hire American Workers before foreign workers! Isn't that "the way we like it?" Those that hire American citizens find it easy and accurate with only about 1% rejected. But those employers operating on the fringe by avoiding American workers and looking for cheap labor (foreign workers with green cards and illegal immigrants) find it difficult because they cause delays and have a much higher rejection rate of about 7%. About 5% of all E-Verify rejections are received by persons who are not work authorized. Of these most either choose not to contest the rejection or indicate that they will contest the finding but then fail to follow through. Now we know why critics dislike E-Verify so much. H1 Bee, You have no idea what you are talking about. First the H1B Visa is only supposed to be used for labor shortages in mostly tech fields. The worst kept secret is there are no labor shortages here. H1B Visas are only used to try and push out more profits at the expense of the American Worker. The only way your argument could hold water is it was only a small hand full of Americans being replaced by H1B Visa holders but instead it's tens of thousands of Americans being replaced so companies can meet unrealistic profit targets in a given quarter so the CEOs and Execs can get their outrageous bonuses. This is about greed plain and simple. I have yet to meet an H1B Visa holder who was more qualified than the 100's of Americans / fellow co-workers I've seen laid off of the last several years. Most don't have the knowledge, experience or both needed for long term goals. Usually their language and communication skills are lacking and it takes five times as long to get anything done.

Hundreds brawl at LA high school-broken up by police The melee, which students said started around noon Friday between rival black and Hispanic gangs, forced authorities to shut down Locke High School and keep students in their classrooms. After restoring order, they rounded up students who hadn't returned to class and separated them by race, holding Hispanics in the gym and black students in another room. About 65 percent of the 2,600 students enrolled at Locke are Hispanic, and 35 percent are black. Posted by: DinTN on May 10, 2008 10:52 AMA simple case of the tail wagging the dog.

Why has membership in the UAW gome from over 200K to 67K? B. Next our politicans imported 30 million illegal aliens to take our jobs, crowd our schools & hospitals and keep wages low. C. Next our politicans tax American citizens so that illegal aliens can have free health care, free food stamps, free educations, housing assistance, etc. Only in American would politicans dare to export jobs, import illegal aliens and raise taxes on American taxpayers.

Posted by: CHogan on May 8, 2008 03:45 PMOf course Irish have the right to be in this country than anyone else. About 50 million Americans are proud of their Irish heritage. We effectively settled the Northeastern part of the country through sheer hard work and courage to face daunting challenges. Legalize Irish first and then think about the Mexicans. Posted by: proudirish on May 8, 2008 04:06 PMHispanics should really quit bitching. Isn't tens of millions more than a few thousand Irish? Not that illegal isn't illegal, but we really don't operate with logic on this issue, hence the nature of my comment. Posted by: Bobby on May 8, 2008 04:39 PMDid the Irish sneak across the Atlantic Ocean and illegally enter this country? I didn't think so! Posted by: Sick 'n Tired on May 8, 2008 04:52 PMproudirish, that is the truth. Although I am not Irish, it is a historical fact that the Irish were some of the hardest working folks that built up this nation. They did backbreaking work as farmers, bridge builders, road builders, skyscrapers,etc. etc. The only reason these pathetic politicians and other LAZY AMERICANS are always talking about hard working hispanics, to the exclusion of other groups that really built this nation, is because they are such low people character wise and have never done an ounce of real work in their lives and think pandering to hispanics is going to keep them on the gravy train. The stupidness of so many Americans in not seeing through this stuff,and firing these morons from their undeserved jobs amazes me to no end. Why are we so afraid of voting for people who are unpopular. Unpopular to whom should be the question? We will never, ever, get change supporting anyone, whom the Main Stream Media Supports. Posted by: Bobby on May 8, 2008 05:40 PMIllegal is illegal, but look at it this way. You don`t see many Irish gangs destroying neighborhoods, smuggling and selling drugs, robbing, killing and raping, or having anchor babies on the backs of American taxpayers, costing us billions! Posted by: Independent Voter on May 8, 2008 06:25 PMChogan, proudirish, and Sick ‘n Tired, here’s the problem with your arguments: #1 - There can be no exceptions for any reason. We either insist on total enforcement of current immigration law, or we disregard it altogether. Otherwise you are providing grounds for exceptions for everyone. There is simply no justification for exceptions to our laws. #2 - This is a pet peeve of mine so grant me a bit of latitude here: Where ever your ancestors came from they made an extraordinary sacrifice in order to give you the gift of American citizenship. I choose to honor my great grandparents for their selfless gift by pledging my allegiance to this country and this country only. If you call yourself an American, you really need to drop the hyphen. It only serves to divide us, and as history has demonstrated time and time again, divided we will fall. #3 - Whether they swam across an ocean, came in on a work visa and overstayed, or snuck across a wide open border, they are in violation of our immigration law and we cannot tolerate or make an exception for any reason (see #1). P.S. I have the world’s most amazing grandson, whose paternal grandparents are of Irish descent. He will call himself an American. Three of my four great-grandparents came from Ireland (maternal side) during the potato famine, yet the Irish who are here now illegally should get in line - in Ireland - just like the rest of the world. And speaking of the rest of the world, we need a moratorium on ALL immigration until the last tsunami of humans (legal) can be assilimated. We keep taking them in, or allowing them to sneak in. We simply cannot sustain this massive influx. Food, water and all the natural resources are being used at an alarming rate. But the three pro-illegals running for the highest office in the land, will just about finish us off. It's insane for them not to discuss the ramifications of this invasion. When they speak of health, education and sustainable development, they need to state that all of these factors are impacted by illegal immigration. Posted by: June on May 9, 2008 09:01 AMI for one believe strongly that rather than an arbitrary age hurdle to determine the right to vote we ought to have a passing grade on an intelligence test as the determinant. Proudirish would undoubtedly fail such a test. The Irish have lots to recommend them however a claim that they are so special as to confer a right to not be held to the same rules and laws as apply to the rest of us is rock solid proof of idiocy. Posted by: MARVIN WAGNER on May 9, 2008 09:42 AMHere's a special deal for every criminal illegal Thanks for that post Melena29. That's the best comment I have read here in a while. Posted by: Dave A on May 9, 2008 10:06 AMWHEN DID ANY TYPE OF ORGANISED CRIME IN AMERICA BECOME MOTHER TERESA? I agree with Melena29 too. The Constitutional Laws on immigration aren't elite toilet paper to flush down their overpopulated American sewage disposal they created with too many recent immigrants, legal or illegal. But make sure to recycle and buy flourescent bulbs. Posted by: Softwarengineer on May 9, 2008 01:20 PMSorry, my Irish posters, but it was the ENGLISH settlers who explored, prospected, claimed, and settled North American lands. It was the ENGLISH settlers who formed the United States of America long before the Irish began coming here in large numbers. The only reason many Irish immigrants were hired to build bridges, skyscrapers, etc. is because they were cheaper and more desperate than U.S. natives. If you truly were proud Irishmen, you'd all go back to Ireland and kick out the third-world foreigners that are infesting your homeland. BAN ST. PATRICK DAY!! Screw the Irish - they shouldn't get any special treatment just because they speak English. (I am at least 25% Irish, or so I am told, but I am 100% American and have no loyalty to any country or any people but my own!) Posted by: Rex on May 9, 2008 01:57 PMProudirish, you are an idiot. I thought only the Hispanics were of the mindset, "I am [INSERT NATIONALITY OR ETHNICITY HERE], so therefore people of my same nationality/ethnicity should receive special treatment and be exempt from the law." I guess I was wrong. To he11 with the Irish - they shouldn't get any special treatment just because they speak English. (I am at least 25% Irish, or so I am told, but I am 100% American and have no loyalty to any country or any people but my own!) Let the Irish in! They already speak ENGLISH! They are easily assimilable! The Irish have long, deep , roots in America! I say; LET THE IRISH STAY! Deport the mexicans! AUDIOS! Posted by: Red on May 9, 2008 02:51 PMMy ancestors came from Ireland too, and although you can make many arguments for Irish immigration - they are mostly single, educated, taxpaying, English speaking, and not using our schools and/or social services- illegal is still illegal. I've looked at some of the blogs in Ireland, and many of the Irish people think illegal immigration is a slap in the face to the U.S. They are correct. The upside of this is the rupturing of the illegal coalition, which weakens the power of these lobbying groups. Posted by: hasslebc on May 9, 2008 05:43 PMMy ancestors came from Ireland, and although many arguments can be made for Irish immigration- they are mostly single, educated, English speakers who are not clogging our prisons or sapping our services- illegal is stil illegal. I've checked some Irish blogs, and the people in Ireland mostly oppose Irish illegal immigration, because it disrespects our laws. On the other hand, I'm happy to see different illegal lobbying groups at each other's throats. Posted by: viva la migra on May 9, 2008 06:08 PMI would be less opposed to grant special status for illegal aliens from a WASP-type country. But Ireland is mostly Catholic, and gained notoriety for staunch reluctance against birth control. Not that all Irish are of that kind, but excessive breeding will drag us all into poverty before long (just like it dragged Irland into poverty). Also, growing influence of the Catholic Church in the U.S. may spell out trouble for all of us. After all, there were many good reasons why we did separate from the Rome's rule more than half millennium ago. There is no good reason to go back. So, be careful what you wish for when you call for legalization of all Irish illegals. Immigrants of today should not be allowed to take credit for the efforts of immigrants of yesterday. I hate it when I hear the statement "immigrants built this country" or "this is a nation of immigrants". It doesn't mean that these are the people that deserve the credit for the work of other people. So what if this country is a nation of immigrants. Things are different now. We have less room and they are offering less skilled people. We provide more for our people now at our expense and it doesn't mean that we have to provide for illegals just because they want us to. Besides, it isn't up to the hispanics to decide what we do for anyone in this country. They seem to forget that they don't run this place. Posted by: joeyindc on May 12, 2008 06:22 AMI disagree Sonja, and believe the record would prove me right. Yes, the English came first, but as far as hard workers, forget it, generally speaking they were lazy, LAZY, compared to the physical work done by the Irish, blacks, and Germans for instance.

He is treacherous enough to then boot all the illegals out of this country against the wish's of the pro illegal groups that voted for him.

There are people out there that DEFEND this kind of behavior. Whether is was an illegal alien or not.
[FAIR edit: The figure isn't 1 million a year, if the study you are referring to is the one by Deborah Schurman-Kauflin, Ph.D. Violent Crimes Institute, Atlanta, Georgia. Her estimate was about 1 million crimes over a 7 year period, not over one year.] At some point, we have to realize that our year will come up and we will be the next victims. I find this one of the prime reasons we should not be giving a blanket amnesty to a group of law breakers. We don't know what each and every individual has done in this nation since they broke into our country. We have immigration laws on the books that need to be followed and pretending these are good people is ridiculous. There is little evidence to show they are good people and lots of evidence to show they will continue to defy our laws. This loser is a pedaphile and a dangerous sexual predator. He needs to go to jail and never be let out and his nation of origin needs to foot all the bills his behavior has caused.

Posted by: Kim on May 10, 2008 10:48 AMHave you noticed the almost complete lack of news concerning this atrocity on any of the major news outlets? There is an average of 8 child molestation per week by illegal aliens. There are 13 American killed weekly by illegal aliens drunk-drivers, and 12 innocent American murdered weekly by illegal alien scum. There have been more American killed by illegal aliens since 9/11 than soldiers killed in Iraq. This case is very indicative of what's going on. Most of "Latinos" are volume baby makers (dedicated breeders, if you will) that will not miss a single oportunity to procreate. Mexico, altuogh decidedly the most affluent country in Latin America, is already falling into poverty due to exorbitant fertility rate of "Latinos" that no economy, not even the U.S. economy, can keep pace with for too long. It will help us understand the root cause of many serious problems that America is facing these days if we recognized "Latinos" for what they are: a model Malthusian population that will quickly translate any increase in their living standards onto accelerated population growth that, in turn, will drag us all into poverty. Posted by: A Reader on May 11, 2008 12:26 PMI have long contended that any crime against a child should have the possibility of the death penalty attached to it...This POS doesn't deserve anything from us, especially the legal help and care we will all be "taxed" with.

It seems to me that the only Chinese women that could show they are truly victims of this Chinese law are the women that were forced to be sterilized by the Chinese Government. This being the case the only Chinese women that should be considered for political asylum in the U.S. would have to be sterile. Posted by: Brian H. on May 9, 2008 10:32 AMChina's population control is the best thing that human beings have done for the biosphere since we first rubbed two sticks together. What might be confusing American lawmakers who think the Chinese women are 'victims' of the policy is that you have never seen a policy that actually identifies a real problem and effectively corrects it.

Posted by: Independent Voter on May 9, 2008 11:52 AMWE GIVE THEM ALL OUR SECRETS ANYWAY Their aerospace engineers get secret clearances in teh America, then later, ship boxes of our proprietary secrets to China and our over-crowded local universities train them to make lasers to shoot our sattelites down....we might as well take their excess population in too. Maybe they'll lend us a bit more money to keep us buying more of their stuff a few weeks longer? Posted by: Softwarengineer on May 9, 2008 01:32 PMGreat!! Now the Chinese will ensure their spies are sent to America under the guise that the Chinese Government will abort the family's second or third child. Oh no, we're not spies, just a simple pregnant couple trying to avert China's abortion policies. China checkmates America again! By the way, how many African women who faced mutilation of their lower body parts were flown to America? Many of them died in that ghastly government sanctioned procedure. Oh yeah, the number was 0.0!! Posted by: United Statesian on May 9, 2008 05:13 PMI am so sick of the liberal courts in this nation, pandering and catering and advocating for every group in the world on every conceivable issue, while totally IGNORING the effect their treasonous actions have on the AMERICAN CITIZENRY. MOST OF THESE JUDGES ARE VIOLATING THEIR OATHS OF OFFICE WHEN ILLEGAL ALIENS COME BEFORE THEM FOR WHATEVER CRIME THEY COMMITTED AND THEY DON'T IMMEDIATELY CALL I.C.E. TO HAVE THEM DEPORTED. THESE OFFICERS OF THE LAW ARE EXHIBITING CRIMINAL BEHAVIOR EVERY SINGLE DAY ACROSS THIS NATION. THEY NEVER SEEM TO HAVE A PROBLEM PROSECUTING AMERICAN CITIZENS FOR THE SLIGHTEST INFRACTION. WE DON'T NEED CHINESE BECAUSE THEY CAN'T HAVE ENOUGH CHILDREN IN CHINA. GOD HELP THIS NATION!!!!!!! Posted by: Bobby on May 10, 2008 03:09 AMMay 08, 2008
Raid Catches 33 Illegal Workers At Federal Courthouse "Federal immigration agents raided the construction site of a new . . . and the contractor who hired them? What will happen to them? They should pay back and forefeit ALL funds paid to them for illegally hiring work via a federal contract. THE BUCK HAS TO STOP SOMEWHERE AND WHY NOT WITH THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT LOWERING THE BOOM ON EMPLOYERS ILLEGALLY HIRING WORKERS. Posted by: Sick 'n Tired on May 8, 2008 02:46 PMI never hear much about the employers fines and jail sentences. Posted by: Steve on May 8, 2008 03:05 PMI can tell you this they will all be back to work in a week. GOOD LUCK ICE you will need it. Hast lavista baby Posted by: Red hot chile pepper on May 8, 2008 03:29 PMFROM THE ARTICLE: MY COMMENT: FROM THE ARTICLE: MY COMMENT: Did the employers get fined? Jail? Excluded from further contracts? Slap on the wrist? Verbal counseling? Anything? GREAT NEWS! 12 MILLION MORE TOO GO! Posted by: American Me on May 8, 2008 06:25 PMCOMMENT:
Beside the fact that there is no mention of employers being fined or punished for hiring illegals. It's good to see that the Common Wealth of Virginia is trying to reduce it's criminal illegal immigrant population. Posted by: Brian H. on May 9, 2008 10:39 AMTHE SYMBOLLISM IN THIS STORY IS HORRIFYING A local government is contracting out to an organised crime contractor to build a court house. Next, they'll be using the Mafia sweat shops to print Constitutional Law library supplies. Posted by: Softwarengineer on May 9, 2008 12:56 PMGREAT NEWS! ONLY 12 MILLION MORE TOO GO! Posted by: American Me on May 9, 2008 01:17 PMThanks for the laugh Softwarengineer! Though I'm not sure if the tears I wiped away were from laughing or the misery of what has taken place in our country. Posted by: United Statesian on May 9, 2008 05:38 PMIt's not that hard to stop this. If ICE busts 20 businesses a day with 330 workers, multiplied by each State, they would deport 330,000 illegals a day in the country. It wouldn't take long to drain the swamp. Posted by: viva la migra on May 9, 2008 05:53 PMSo I guess they were doing jobs no American would do. These people need to get out of our country. Posted by: Kim on May 10, 2008 10:34 AMRed hot chile pepper, were you the guy/women who said you were harboring illegal aliens in your house. If you were than you may one day be the one "sneaking back in." Posted by: Bobby on May 10, 2008 05:15 PMI think that it is really bad that the company who was hired to do the work on the courthouse got the job and had the balls to hire illegal aliens who would be getting paid with tax payer money. They probably underbid many other contractors who do things legally and take out taxes and pay benefits to their workers. What message does this send to other companies initially other than if you play by the rules, you are out of the game. I am glad that they got busted, now they should fine the employers and take their contract away and give it to someone who does things the right way |
