Elvira Arellano As 'The New Rosa Parks'? How Silly Can Immigration Debate Get?
IBD ^ | August 30, 2007 | Larry Elder

Posted on 08/30/2007 5:20:14 PM PDT by Kaslin

Is Elvira Arellano — the recently deported Mexican illegal alien — the new Rosa Parks? Some of her supporters describe her this way. But Arellano's credentials as a "role model," to say the least, fall short.

Indeed, even some "immigrant rights activists" find the comparison embarrassing. A check of the Web sites of the National Council of La Raza and the Mexican-American Legal Defense and Educational Fund finds no statement one way or the other concerning Arellano.

Rosa Parks, a black woman, was born in 1913 in Tuskegee, Alabama — that is, Tuskegee, Alabama, United States of America. She thus entered life as an American citizen, but was denied the rights and protections afforded by the U.S. Constitution.

Arellano sneaked into the country, not once but twice, and defied a deportation order by receiving "sanctuary" for over a year in a Chicago church.

Disgusting to compare an identity thief who violates US immigration law with Rosa Parks. Disgusting and insulting.

Deported and then snuck back across the border. Identity theft. Social Security fraud. Yup, she’s a felon.

libs just don't get it.

Comparing this felon/identity theif to someone like Rosa Parks demeans the memory of Rosa Parks.

Damn but liberals are stupid.

To compare this illegrant to Rosa Parks is a supreme insult to the latter.

Rosa Parks Did not not like being forced to ride in the back of the buss. Elvira does not want to be a Mexican.

"..Compared with nearly all European nations, America stands virtually alone in allowing children born on her soil by those who enter the country illegally to become citizens..."

They need to change that, but I don't see it happening.

Rosa Parks violated an un-Constitutional city ordinance.

The Mexican invader broad committed a felony by re-entering this country after being deported.

Even the ultra-biased LA SLimes admits that.

What do you mean Elvira does not want to be a Mexican? She wants nothing BUT to be a Mexican. She made the statement a couple weeks ago that she “wanted to carry on the struggle from my country, Mexico.” She lived here several years and nevber learned English? She had no intention of even trying to assimilate. She is Mexican through and through, and her allegiance rests 100% with Mexico.

After her deportation to Mexico, she said: “The United States is the one who broke the law first. By letting people cross over (the border) without documents. By letting people pay taxes.”

Wow she has a set of nads that hang to her knees

This woman entered our country illegally, hiding and crawling in the dirt; afraid of being caught by Border Patrol and deported. Yet she knew the consequence of her actions. Deportation. She chooses to give birth to a Mexican child on US soil, knowing she may be deported at any time and she will have to take the child with her. This is the natural reaction, the legal response known when she choose to enter this country illegally.
I say, let’s stop all this nonsense; ask our congress to enact law: make all undocumented aliens guilty of felonious violation of our sovereign territory. In an instant, 20 million people will face immediate deportation if not jail time. Give them temporary immunity to leave on their own or apply for legal status if qualified.
We can do this! It takes nothing else than a lot of faxes to our representatives.
This is the immediate resolve. All illegal immigrants are felons.
There are countries where a border perpetrator is shot on site. We give them food and water, medical care, phones to call home, free ride back to their countries. We smile timidly to ACLU. What are we? You name us…

You’ve got to get rid of the taxpayer funded services and criminal employers or they’ll be back.

“Rosa Parks, a black woman, was born in 1913 in Tuskegee, Alabama...”

How come she wasn’t a fighter pilot?

Elvira Arellano visited the President of Mexico asking he put pressure on the USA regarding her immigration status, and send her back to the USA as a "special diplomat".

Janitor Elvira gets red carpet treatment from the President of Mexico.

After deportation, Elvira's first move was to address the Mexican legislature (where she criticized the United States).

It appears Elvira is trying to influence the measures or conduct of Mexico WRT disputes or controversies with the United States, and/or trying to defeat the measures of the United States in collusion with the Mexican government.

================================================

Elvira appears to have no visible means of support in Mexico. Is the Mexican government subsidizing her?

==================================================

We need to determine whether she and other illegal invaders are agents of foreign governments, and whether they should be prosecuted for undermining the US government.

=================================================

We know illegal invaders are sending as much as $50 billion US dollars per year back to their home countries. The money is gained from illegal employment ....and for all we know....from SS fraud, drug deals, tax evasion, ID theft, and other criminal activities.

Who in these foreign countries is getting a cut of the $50 billion?

It would be easy for the US government to trace monies from the point of departure at Western Union to determine whether WU is aiding in the hiding and conversion and transmission of the invaders illegal cash to legitimate funds............and who, on the other end, is receiving the monies.

ALL international Western Union money transfers need to be filtered and siezed as necessary to discern the money trail from the invaders on US soil, to Mexico, and Central and South American governments.

================================

American citizens are losing their savings/homes/futures......while freeloading illegal invaders own homes in the countries they emanate from, have cash in the bank, and are riding the US gravy train, sponging-off hardworking US citizens.

=================================

BACKUP In June 2007, Representative Steve King introduced legislation that would prohibit Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi from traveling to Syria violated Logan's Law. The amendment was not adopted. The Logan Act is a United States federal law that forbids unauthorized citizens from negotiating with foreign governments. It was passed in 1799 and last amended in 1994. Violation of the Logan Act is a felony, punishable under federal law with imprisonment of up to three years.
