The terrorists who have illegally made their way into our midst are profiting from our economy, while plotting to mass murder us; these monsters are willing to wait for years to achieve their goal...

What are they waiting for?

In Arizona, the legal citizens finally got fed up with the federal government's indifference to their problems with noncitizens who are draining their social services and raising the crime rate. Arizonans took illegal immigration into their own hands by putting Arizona Proposition 200 on the ballot. The bill requires voters to have valid proof of citizenship and denies social benefits to illegal aliens. The initiative passed by a 56 percent margin, despite opposition from politicians. It's interesting that 47 percent of Hispanics voted for it.

California was attempting the same thing when Congressman Issa subverted the effort right before the filing deadline by providing 5000 signature's instead of the promised 100,000.

From the Libertarian Party website:

"We call for the elimination of all restrictions on immigration, the abolition of the Immigration and Naturalization Service and the Border Patrol, and a declaration of full amnesty for all people who have entered the country illegally."

Oh, this is just nativist nonsense: all illegal aliens are terrorists or welfare queens or murderers waiting to slaughter us in our beds.... Just rubbish.

Even if you agree with the sentiments, the Purple Prose ought to put you off.

They are getting away with this, due to the fact that the MSM will not touch this subject, unless it is to sway the MSM buying public of the plight of the Illegals.
Thus, those in congress can get away without protecting its' citizens. If it was not for this FR and other websites people as a whole wouldn't be aware of what is really going on at the borders until it is too late and then the MSM press will be blaming GWB and the Republican party.

These noncitizens are parasites who live off the prosperity of honest, hardworking Americans, and send their tax-free income back into their native country.

The author is from Vacaville, California. California is paying a huge price for the stupidity (and greed) of its elected officials, who must be in some way profiting from this human tsunami.

The article does not appear to say that anywhere.

If unchecked immigration is such a great thing, why don't other countries allow it? A lot of the immigrants coming in might be great people, but who is paying attention to the murderers, rapists, and others coming in along with them? Probably nobody- sounds like part of a plan that is going to hurt the USA in the long run. Maybe that's their idea.

The terrorists who have illegally made their way into our midst are profiting from our economy, while plotting to mass murder us; these monsters are willing to wait for years to achieve their goal and Americans are inadvertently subsidizing them.

In addition, many Mexicans who enter the country illegally are hardened criminals who are fleeing from prosecution in Mexico. Twenty-five percent of the incarcerated criminals in America are illegal aliens, according to debate on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives. And in California alone, more than 1,000 are outstanding on noncitizens who are wanted for felonies. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to realize that for the sake of Americans safety, every illegal intruder should be deported.

I've read it and it still does not say what you claimed it said.

The solution is SO SIMPLE!

REPLACE THE ENTIRE CONGRESS WITH A NEW ONE WHO WILL LISTEN TO THE VOTERS.

He/she is another one of "those", MI.

It doesn't matter what the article says. They'll twist it to make it say what they want it to say.

I guess it's a smear tactic taken to a new level? I didn't find what he posted, either.
