Americans Taking Action Against Illegal Immigration State-by-State
Magic City Morning Star ^ | 12/30/2004 | Jan Herron

Posted on 12/30/2004 1:24:14 PM PST by nanak

The recent action by Arizona citizens that passed legislation allowing that state to block taxpayer services to illegal aliens was long over due. I applaud their efforts and endless work. The voters of Arizona sent the perfect message: Foreigners who break into the US illegally don't receive freebies from Arizona citizens. They will be reported and deported. The loud and clear message sent by Arizona taxpayers means the money in their wallets will no longer subsidize border jumpers. EVERY STATE in the country needs to implement their own initiative and send out a clear warning that their "Bank of Entitlements" will no longer fund illegal aliens.

Throughout this country, complaints grow on a daily basis. Our shopping malls and parking lots explode with illegal aliens who dump garbage, are drunk and urinate in public while seeking work "Americans won't do" (which is known as the big lie created by corporate crooks). This creates a fearful situation that turns citizens away from entering businesses they once supported. Our hospitals bankrupt, our schools cascade into overrun classrooms and unemployment bursts at the seams in unemployment lines.

EVERY STATE must consider the consequences of this massive invasion by illegals. Why? The line never ends. According to Time Magazine's September 12, 2004 issue, "Who Left the Door Open?" three million jumped U.S. borders in 2004. More are expected in 2005. It is imperative for ALL STATES to follow Arizona's lead in denying services to these lawbreakers. Contact your state legislators and hold their feet to the fire. Demand your U.S. House representative join the Immigration Reform Caucus. Further, any elected official who supports President Bush's amnesty legislation needs to be reminded that citizens will no longer tolerate deviation from the truth regarding his "guest worker" sham.

We must bypass national politicians and bring issues before the voters. Look for numerous groups, including Georgians for Immigration Reform and Defend Colorado Now -- currently pursuing effective action.

Recently, Senators Kennedy and McCain joined forces to "work" the illegal alien problem. Worse, their contemporaries assist them in perpetuating their insidious propaganda that misinforms and misleads Americans. We must expose government mismanagement and corruption. Unfortunately, career politicians prolong this national crisis. Greedy elected officials need to be reckoned with as they have been hijacked by lobbyists. We must get to the bottom of the cesspool since our federal government offers little, if any, help. We must start at the local government level and manage "OUR" money.

It's time our elected officials represent "We the People." They swore on the Bible to uphold the Constitution and serve American citizens. Nowhere did it say they serve illegal aliens from other countries over American citizens. It's time they follow through on their sacred trust as a majority of Americans are "mad as hell and are not going to take it anymore."

Even legitimate cases of discrimination (legally legitimate) are almost impossible to prove when it's over hiring.

Unfortunately, that's not what influences an employer's hiring decision. It's a bit more complicated than that. What happens is that if an employer wants to fire or discipline a minority employee, he needs to have some insurance against a lawsuit. Once he gets sued, the first thing that's going to get looked at is the level of "diversity" of his workforce, apparently so as to peer into his state of mind. At that point, he's going to want to make sure he has plenty of minority employees to show to the plaintiff's lawyers, who aren't going to care a whit if these employees are illegals.

So really the only viable solution is to get rid of these "civil rights" laws altogether and let the market do its job.

"Hell, we've got 'em on this board."

Yup, tons of them, they are really more about supporting president Bush at all costs. Even if it means turning the country over to Mexico, if President Bush is for it then they are for it. I think President Bush could propose a plan to abolish the Constitution and the BushBots would be all in favor of doing so. Hell I forget he already did that and the BushBots were all for it ..... Patriot Act.

Okay, I'll give you may A student son. Who happened to clip out of a year of college by taking AP classes. However, because he was in the top 20% of his class as opposed to the top 10%, he didn't qualify to attend a state university. (Unlike his "undoucmented" A student counterpart. AND... he was in the top 4% of his class until we were transfered to Houston... a much large school district.) My son has a right to a spot in a state college before any "undoucumented" kid if for no other reason he is the product of generations of TAXPAYERS. But, hey, crazy me....

Actually, there is a large group of Republicans who have already gone off halfcocked before they even see what the final plan is.

Why do they have to wait for the "final" plan before they can formulate an opinion? What he's told us of already is enough to get most rational people upset.

Gets better than that...as far as I can determine, that site, http://members.cox.net/dkunkel/ , isn't even archived by Google.

Makes me wonder where our resident pro-illegal cheerleader got that link from...

Halfcocked... utter drivel. Try fed up, weary, frustrated, and exhausted.

Because a lot of things being stated as "fact," in fact, aren't.

I approve of the Patriot Act

Not his amnesty program for illegals.

Care to amplify that?

Although I think I hear you loud and clear. You think it's ok for the children of Illegals to receive an education compliments of American taxpayers, berate that education and demand still more services along with the guarantee of a "suitable" job.

Do I have to tell you how that smells?

Bush is in favor of open borders.

Bush's plan is blanket amnesty.

Whether you approve of it or not, she's right that there is a growing number of Republicans who are getting fed up. You're not going to win them back over to your side with that attitude.

You might want to rethink that. I certainly wouldn't vote for Perry again if he were to take such an action, and I'll guarantee you that the Texas GOP wouldn't see another dime from me until the situation was rectified. One of the things I truly love about Texas is that it hasn't, and it won't jump on the Tancredoesque bandwagon.

And you're not going to win the votes you need to get ANYTHING to do with immigration laws when you exaggerate and condescendingly scoff at people who don't agree with your interpretation of the plans being put forth.

The first one is an opinion of his state of mind based on his actions. No one's claiming that he's come out in favor of this.

The second one shows your misrepresentation of fact. No one's accused his plan of being a "blanket" amnesty. But it is amnesty.

"You think it's ok for the children"

I think you have me mixed up with someone else.

If his amnesty program passes, and I'm afraid it will, he is going to have millions of Bush supporters p'od.

That's rewarding people who break our laws, pure and simple.

Exactly my point. It's clearly "someone's" personal webspace, whoever dkunkel/ is.
