Could anger over Donald Trump's rhetoric reinvigorate the push for immigration reform?
Los Angeles Times ^ | May 25, 2016 | Cindy Carcamo

A decade ago, Anabel Garcia Romo, then a 17-year-old attending Garfield High School, took part in the epic May Day march through the streets of downtown Los Angeles.

She was drawn to the protest because she had friends and family who were in the country illegally and she opposed a proposal in Congress that would have made them felons.

Garcia called the day a defining moment in her life. But in the years since, nothing -- not even Donald Trump -- has compelled her back to the streets.

Enter Donald Trump, who has made attacks on Mexican immigrants and building a border wall a centerpiece of his presidential campaign.


Which is why he will be elected.

Look for the RINO sellouts to try it in a lame-duck session if Trump wins.

Could anger over our multi-national politicians refusal to enforce our laws elect Donald Trump?

Massive parades of illegals with Mexican flags in major American cities is exactly what this country needs to make us more open to the idea of open borders. Maybe they should even be armed as well to add emphasis. < / sarcasm >

Actually, I could see a Ram-Rod Execute Order or Bill Pushed through the Democrat Controlled Congress at lighting speed to get them voting ASAP and try and take the wind out of Trumps sails.

Even if they loose 2016.

If these Millions of Illegals are Legalized, They will never loose another election after that ever again.

We don’t need reform. We need to enforce our current laws.

BETTER WARN CONGRESS: Immigration reform in the US would be an Act of War against Mexico ....b/c the govt of Mexico considers Mexicans on US soil Mexican citizens. Read on.

AFFIDAVIT BY THE GOVERNMENT OF MEXICO
IN A SWORN AFFIDAVIT TO A US COURT, MEXICO SWORE
THAT MEXICANS ON US SOIL ARE MEXICAN CITIZENS.

A sworn affidavit by Mexico/s Consul General to a Texas court asserts that Mexico/s official govt policy is to encourage its poor people to migrate here illegally in order to access our generous welfare system...... declaring that Mexico is responsible to protect its nationals wherever they may be residing.

A footnote states that Mexican nationality is granted to children born abroad of a Mexican born parent. IOW, anchor babies born in the US retain parents Mexican nationality.

The Mexican consul's sworn testimony asserts that: "My responsibilities in this position include protecting the rights and promoting the interests of my fellow Mexican nationals, and, that the main responsibility of consulates is to provide services, assistance, and protection to Mexican nationals abroad."

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

NOTE This also wipes out anchor babies......as well as Secy, Jeh Johnson and Obama's assertions to the USSC WRT Obama's amnesty dictat that illegals have essentially "become American" b/c they go to school, have licenses to drive, and can even practice law in California.

They seem to be behaving around here, which is good. They just don’t have the numbers to take on the gringos.

Remember, the ‘Rats are doing their best to make sure each of those millions of illegals gets to vote. And of course, being illegal, they can vote more than once. It’s going to take a massive turnout of legitimate voters to overcome their cheating.

The LA Slimes needs to stop calling these people immigrants. Does the Mexican government call the Guatemalans and Salvadorans crossing their southern border on their way here immigrants? Mexico’s gravy train immigration racket is going to slowly be stopped and that’s why they’re in a state of panic.

What is really going to hurt them is taxing their remittances. That’s their biggest source of income.

They screw us coming and going: taking jobs from Americans and then sending their wages home.
Mexico is going to pay us for forcing us to secure our southwestern border from their castoff citizens yearning to live free, and their evil cartels that grease the federales so they can traffic humans and narcotics into America.

You concerned Americans, don’t bother saying it can’t be done. Si se puede.
This is La Raza’s last gasp. We aren’t California ... yet.
Go Trump. Win win win. To h*** with Univision party.

“And they think their side is angry.”

Yeah, and when I see stuff like what went on in Albepukie last night, I want to give those ungrateful Beaners two things: 1) A Mexican Flag enema and 2) a free ride back to their homeland together with a revocation of US citizenship for the few that may have it by virtue of their worhless mother’s having “dropped them” in this country! Aztlan, not a chance!

The author is a blithering, drooling idiot. Why would we need “immigration reform” now that Obonzo has opened our borders. You can’t fix stupid. Cindy needs to try to get out more.
