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.
Hey, all you Mexicans: You either live by our rules or you get the hell out of our country. You don't see us going down to Mexico and trying to run that third-world toilet of a country, do you? If you have a problem with America, then vamoose.
America is on the hell-bound train unfortunately...Aztlan Reconquistas, Moos, welfare out the wazoo, ACLU-God-haters, Communist DemocRATs...sheesh, we've apparently grown tired of being a blessed nation that can shine brightly into this world...the darkness has set in.
I want Bush to win and will vote for him, but he's so screwed up on borders and illegal invaders that I just don't see him effecting positive changes in the security of our borders or the illegal invasion of America in his 2nd term.
So, Nov. 3 begins the discussion...Bush made a call to $5/hr in the interior of America versus 50 cents/hr in the interior of Mexico on BOR for crying out loud.
Tom Ridge is lying about no Muhammadans illegally invading our borders...let's get the vote on already.
Get back to me on Nov. 3rd...
I wish they had picked stallone instead.
"How about permanently sending all 2 million of these criminals down to the third-world hellholes from whence they came on the 'Hasta la Vista, Baby' express? I'll help with the driving."
Count me in.
No kidding. I love "Kindergarten Cop".
Juan Jose Gutierrez is a few crayons short of a full box.
"These losers are getting almost as delusional as the sandmaggots! When will they start issuing Fatwahs?"
When they decide they want to join the pedophiliac mohammedans as they amuse themselves with little girls in 'slamic paradise.
Moehoward calls for destruction of Hispanic "movements".
That's one of the many glaring hypocracies of the Mexicans: They have a closed southern border, where they repel "immigrants" from Central America, but they demand that we have a completely open border to allow all the unwashed, criminal and illiterate masses from Mexico entry into our country.
Hmm...wonder if Arnold could arrange for the border patrol to be there when they have their bonfire burning of videotapes, & DVD's.
I read an article that said Mexican farmers were hiring illegal workers from Mexico's southern border countries because they work cheaper than Mexican citizens!!!
Surely the ACLU and ALA (America Library Association) will protest this video burning. Oh, they only protest book/cd burnings of liberal authors/entertainers.
My thoughts are the same as yours. Pretty close to Pat Buchanan minus his huge blind spot vis a vis Muhammedanism and Israel. I'm as harsh on immigration but we cannot be as isolationist as Pat wants. Not so long as we buy so much foreign oil. And depend on Asia for electronics and computer components.
I wouldn't be the least bit surprised to find out that La Raza (the Latino KKK) was working behind the scenes to help organize this rally.
I’ve been to Mexico quite a few times, mainly down the Western side. I think the infrastructure has improved but only in response to increased tourism. This of course is purely from my own observations. Ultimately though what separates the US and Mexico is the rule of law and property rights; it’s this liberty, which allows prosperity to flourish, although the left is trying as hard as it can to remove these benefits from the US. There is a moneyed class in Mexico that benefits from the status quo and the judiciary, the police and the military support them.
Check out the GINI index for Mexico which shows the income of the top 10%.

As you say they are primarily economic migrants and whilst I can sympathise with their desire to live and work in the US they cannot expect preferential treatment and they must be made to abide by immigration laws.
On the whole I think the US already has plenty of cheap labour, the importing of more has stifled innovation, especially in agriculture. Consider the advances made in cotton production after slavery was abolished, the same thing would happen in the harvesting of many of California’s crops. A nation that put its flag on the moon is more than up to the task of developing cheap lettuce harvesters, probably through advances in robotics.
As I told my lefty friend, we need to stop importing unskilled labour and start exporting liberty.
