The Archbishop and the others can go to hell. I plan to do a few days auxiliary observation with the Minutemen out at Belleaire and Hillcroft- and God help any of those weasels that are foolish enough to get in my face or give me grief over it

Archbishop Joseph A. Fiorenza said the Minutemen would not be welcome in Houston.

"We stand against any attempts of outsiders to come into Houston to abuse and intimidate our illegal immigrant communities," Fiorenza said in a statement issued Friday.

Archbishop Joseph A. Fiorenza said that the Minute Men were not welcome in Houston because they might bring an end to us being able to diddle little Mexican boys.

"For every Minuteman patrolling, we will have at least 10 people patrolling them," said Maria Jimenez

They want to tag along!

The Houston Police Department held a meeting with the supporters of lawlessness where they promised that they would not enforce the law. Seems that people who complain about illegals trespassing and damaging property will not have the support of our police department. I guess that means we no longer have to support the police department.

Remember, there is management and then there are the guys on the streets. There is a distinction.

Earlier Story: [July 6, 2005] No photos of immigrants, chief tells officers***The Houston Police Department has instructed officers not to photograph illegal immigrants seeking day jobs, after an incident last month prompted an outcry from an immigrant rights group.

Houston police Capt. Juan Trevino made the pledge to 400 people who attended a meeting Tuesday night organized by The Metropolitan Organization, an interfaith grass-roots political action group.

Trevino said that "an isolated handful of officers" took immigrants' photographs after a business owner on North Shepherd recently complained that they "were walking on private property."

Addressing the TMO gathering in Spanish and English, Trevino said that the Houston police department will work with the organization to encourage immigrant workers to seek work at the east side day labor center.

"We have initiated a policy where, at this time, we are instructing all officers that they cannot photograph any of the day laborers that are currently out in the field," Trevino said.

After the meeting at Immaculate Conception Catholic Church, Trevino said the photographs of immigrants involved "an isolated handful of officers — it was maybe only one or two."

"But currently the department has given directions down through the captains to instruct all officers to cease that practice until our legal services investigation ... until that matter has been clarified," Trevino said. ..........................***

Who died and made this bozo god?

Here we have the enemy from within and they are doing this on your Catholic donations, the same as they are doing for their ungodly coverup of their "Father pedifilic Confessors" and laughing(all the way to the bank)at the suckers who continue to support this activity with their (ha)love offerings.

Illegal RC's must be good tithers.

Illegals + mostly from Latin America + most of Latin America is Catholic + church needs the money ... even for a liberal arts guy the math isn't too complicated.

As for the cops, I wouldn't be too surprised if the rank and file aren't secretly cheering the Minutemen on. It's not the cops' fault the chief is a quota black and the INS has better things to do than round up illegals in Houston. No reason to pull the 100 Club decals just yet.

Wasn't Fiorenza involved in the pedophile cover-up in some way? My memory seems to want to connect his name with it for some reason.

Let us use eminent domain and close his church down for a tax generating condo site.

The good bishop's tirade notwithstanding, the Minutemen will indeed be welcomed by good, conservative people that love America and prefer to punish lawbreakers.

A great many of these high handed Arrogant Bishops and Arch bishops will most certainly end up in Hell, if there is any truth to the teachings of Jesus Christ.

Where was this "Bishop" during the Rape and Pillage of the Catholic Children.
His Job is to welcome all People , Not just the People he decides to welcome.

Just another Bigot in the Church, Stop the Money- Stop the Bishop.

NBC had a police spokesman on last night. He said it was not the HPD's problem to deal with illegals, that illegals fall under a FEDERAL agency, and that agency has to deal with the issues of illegals.

If they know someone is breaking the law, Federal or state, or county, or city, they must try to stop the person, right??? Am I missing something???
