"Lupe Moreno knows the immigrant struggle. She has lived all her life in Santa Ana, a gateway community for Mexican immigrants."

As I have posted before .

Most of my Hispanic neighbors are against any kind of amnesty or illegal immigration.

They are extremely pissed with politicians who want to give away for free what they had to earn.

They are also worried that many politically correct politicians are ignorant of what bad affects illegal immigration has on the USA.

This isn't as new as the LA Times would have us believe.

A quick glance at the Alamo defenders' roll shows people with names like Carlos Espalier, Gregorio Esparza, Antonio Fuentes, Jose Maria Guerrero, Jose Toribio Losoya and Andres Nava; I assume the LA Times would have us believe that these are all non-Latino Anglo names....

It is not now and has never been about Latino v. Anglo. It's about defending your homeland from invaders that want it.

"It's important that we have these folks here, because I think it shows that we are attracting a wide variety of people," said Jim Gilchrist, co-founder of the citizen border patrol known as the Minuteman Project. "This is not just about white against Mexican. It's not a racist issue. It's about putting an end to illegal immigration."

In addition to this, we have to consider that there are 193 countries in the world. What makes Mexico think they have an open invitation, or that American citizens or corporations want them running north? The only free pass that you will see from me is that you sign into the military four years (at least one year front line) with no ugly past. That's called earning citizenship.

Although polls suggest that the majority of Latinos are sympathetic to illegal immigrants once they have settled in the United States, opinions vary by generation, home country, economic class and personal values.

Some Latinos are strongly opposed to crossing the border illegally.

Would the L.A. Times care to assign a number value on just how many "some" is? (Rhetorical question.)

Lupe Moreno knows the immigrant struggle. She has lived all her life in Santa Ana, a gateway community for Mexican immigrants. Her father helped smuggle them into the country; her former husband sneaked in illegally.

Now Moreno is part of the growing movement to stem the flow of illegal immigration.

"I want people to know that there are Latinos who are law-abiding," she said. "We need to protect our borders."
