LOS ANGELES(AP) - A group of Hispanic activist is promising to "punish" Governor Schwarzenegger for his veto of legislation that would have let illegal immigrants get drivers licenses.
Leaders of Latino Movement USA held a rally today in Los Angeles. The group is soliciting the donation of movies the former actor starred in for a symbolic destruction in December.
Last month, Schwarzenegger vetoed a bill that would have let up to two million immigrants drive legally.
The legislation's supporters have vowed to go after the governor, whom they think caved in to public sentiment.
Schwarzenegger has said the bill ignored his requirement of key security safeguards -- an identifying mark that would differentiate them from licenses held by US citizens and legal residents.
Fancy that, a governor heeding public sentiment. The legislators could take a lesson from that. About time elected officials started paying attention to the sentiments of those who voted them in office.
Wonder how far it would get us Gringos if we went down to Mexico and started having tantrum fits over their laws that we didn't agree with? It would probably get us about six feet-straight down.
The group is soliciting the donation of movies...
Typical libs - destroy someone else's property.
FYI PING
We are obviously not dealing here with rocket scientists. Let these dimwits burn their own movies. They bought them and can destroy them. These mental midgets probably will go out and buy more just to destroy them to show their support of criminals. LOL
This kind of dumbass stuff wouldn't work in Mexico or any of the other 22 Hispanic failed nations.
I totally agree. The assault of America is 100% managed by the Mexican gubmint and 100% allowed by the American gubmint. Elitist American sovereignty-usurpers are going to be challenged in '08 severely. They will have to be...
Lets just dig a moat at the border and fill it with crocodiles. I've always heard they like dining on Mexican.
Please don't be...that's silly.
That's a great voting record for your family!
God forbid a politician does what his constituents want him to.
Or invade Mexico, take 50 miles of their interior, and just move forward in that awareness...lol
I'm embarrassed to be white, when I hear David Duke speaking, LOL.
That's a nice large family of Republicans, good to see, can I assume they're all RICH and GREEDY and busy stealing from the poor < series sarcasm on >
/sarcasm.
Weelll... I don't know if you've travelled in mejico and I have not since the late '70s. But when I did go there, the cities were clean, the people well groomed, life seemed very orderly and peaceful. Of course, you had the villages out off of dirt roads where they were growing corn and herding animals, etc.
Generally, public sanitation was not as good as in the U.S. and conventional wisdom was that the government, military and policia were corrupt and to be feared.
Truly, the system down there keeps them in line. I think they're fleeing that more than economic conditions. They know how to make do and life is pretty good. However, it's a status symbol to migrate to El Norte, earn U.S. dollars and wire them back to the village. Not uncommon to see the latest electronics in the most basic hovel.
Once here, they drop the conservative circumspect demeanor of life in mejico and display less attractive qualities which, judging from your locale, you are familiar with. They do have more freedom here and greed drives them more than necessity.
Yeah we could, but you know a lot of them would hide and then we'd have even more illegals. LOL OH! Lets get a bunch of bad boys like the one on my profile page, they'll protect the boarders!!!
While I empathise with your frustration over the complete refusal of our government to even acknowledge that illegal immigration is a problem; I am hesitant to launch a political assault in the tone you seem to propose. I don't know, call me chicken, but I am not yet ready to give up on repubs.
