Did I indicate anger? In truth, illegal immigrants are a cause of many problems in this country. However, I just wanted to know if you had data to back your assertion or if it was just a "feeling".
Besides the other posts that follow the one you responded to I have this one from Steve 8714
All I have is the following In truth, illegal immigrants are a cause of many problems in this country.
1. I had a business meeting today (August 3rd). During lunch conversation turned to the Gibson story. After listening to quite a bit of Gibson bashing I then spoke up and observed that no one at the lunch was bashing the Muslim terrorist that shot 6 innocent, unarmed women in Seattle (one pregnant), killing one of them.
Not one person at that table even knew what I was talking about!!
This points out the bias of the lame stream media. Evidently, to them, it is much worse to make anti-semitic statements when in a drunken stupor then it is to KILL unarmed female jews. Worse yet, the few stories I have seen about this always mention that the perp had a rough upbringing, had mental disorders, etc. In other words, excusing the shootings as not his fault!!
2. Imagine this scenario: A white man walks into a black organization, maybe a church, and shoots a number of black women. What do you think the media coverage would be then? Little coverage? And that coverage would excuse the shooter as having a bad upbringing, that he had mental problems?? You all know the answer to that one. Jesse 'Racist' Jackson would be there in a heartbeat. We would here 10,000 news reports on this over a period of months.
3. The media will continue to suppress these types of stories merely because they hate George Bush. They believe that reporting these types of events would cause people to understand what we are up against and in the media's miniscule minds, this would support President Bush.
So, they will report a story like Gibson into the ground and ignore the terrorist shooting jews in Seattle, they will ignore the Muslim running down students in North Carolina, they will ignore the shooting at the El Al airline counter at LAX.
The media would rather put lives in danger rather then report a story that might illuminate the truth about what is happening right here in the USA.
God help us all.
IT IS TIME TO QUIT PORTRAYING MEL GIBSON AS A VICTIM!
5000 people murderd in the last 20 years by illegals, 40000 dead or injured in traffic accidents caused by illegals, excessive unemployment of the urban underclass, hospitals closing on the border, billions in social welfare costs, all pretty well documented..what about the posts?
we employ 250-300 immigrants where I work. All presented documents for the I-9. Maybe 5% pay any income tax. The accurate statement would be 60% pay income OR social security and Medicare tax.
Ask yourself the question: Do you feel that Mel Gibson sincerely feels sorry for what he said and that he's proven that he's ready to be forgiven? Or are you simply quick to believe the best because you feel that he's a Hollywood actor who's closer to our line of thinking? Would you be just as forgiving if it were Sean Penn in this situation?
I'm willing to believe that Mr. Gibson can come out a better person from this experience, but I'm not willing to say that all is forgiven a bare week after the arrest.
The key "gutless" word in your sentence is the word 'ALL'. It has to be 100% or they can't be blamed for 1%! This is the lamest argumentative excuse to allow anyone to get away with anything! The truth is illegal immigrants are a taxing burden on Medicare, our jails, social security, crime and our public school system. You obviously are oblivious to the obvious! Get rid of illegals and each problem goes from a bankruptcy to a solvency. I guess you've missed the Minute Men and the anger over this issue by others like Ray and myself who see that you don't have to be 100% of anything to take over a country. Nazi's were less than 1/1000 of the political faction. Castro's guerrillas were less than 1/10000 of Communist fighters!
But please stay blind to the problem. Thats how invaders eventually take over and make slaves out of people like you!
