Valley Illegals Fear Crackdown Is Coming
KLASTV ^ | August 20, 2005 | Brian Allen

Posted on 08/20/2005 7:10:30 AM PDT by Reaganwuzthebest

Arizona and New Mexico are under a state of emergency Friday night. The governors of both states made the declaration to free up money to increase Mexican border patrols. It is an effort to fight illegal immigration.

Illegal immigrants in Nevada say it's only a matter of time before a similar state of emergency is issued here. They fear being thrown out of the country, unable to make money from jobs they find here in the states.

Illegal immigrants in southern Nevada believe it's only a matter of time until authorities here crack down on them. Here in the valley, day jobs for illegals are starting to dry up. There's time when there's work and there's time when there's not.

The states of emergency in New Mexico and Arizona may have a dramatic effect on the influx of illegals into Nevada. Many cross the Mexican border into Arizona and then travel, or are smuggled up Highway 93 into Las Vegas and beyond. Nearly all are looking for opportunities to make money. "We only want to work we don't do anything wrong. If they hire us fine if they don't they don't."

This 2003 federal homeland security report guess-timates over 101,000 illegal immigrants live in Nevada. A UNLV study asserts illegals contribute 16 billion a year to our local economy.

"It's quite evident we have to focus our efforts, our priorities, our resources on the greatest risks." Russ Knocke with federal homeland security tells Eyewitness News, the current approach of trying to dismantle human smuggling rings is the way to go hoping to stop potential terrorists from entering the country.

But Arizona and New Mexico declaring these emergencies may force the government's hand to once again target illegal alien clusters in large American cities, like Las Vegas. "We intend to work as closely as we can based on the needs of the states."

The increasing risk and the increasing debate has some illegals thinking twice about having come here in the first place. "We wait here for awhile. If we don't find work we go back to Mexico." But until a crackdown begins, these men will continue looking for work, day-by-day, dollar-by-dollar.

A spokeswoman for Governor Kenny Guinn says there are no current plans to issue a State of Emergency for illegal immigration here. Eyewitness News has learned that next week the federal Department of Homeland Security will meet in Washington to discuss illegal immigration measures along the Mexican border.

That statement seems as though you are anti anti illegal immigration.

Doing a quick google search on Bayourod, there are far too many posts by him and to him, regarding welfare for illegal immigrants: I don't have the time, perhaps someone else might feel like corecting him:

"Being" here illegally is not a crime. Entering was a violation of immigration regulations.

Excerpt from the statement of founder of Free Republic by Jim Robinson : We also oppose the United Nations or any other world government body that may attempt to impose its will or rule over our sovereign nation and sovereign people. We believe in defending our borders, our constitution and our national sovereignty.

Do you oppose the United Nations or any other world government body that may attempt to impose its will or rule over our sovereign nation and sovereign people? Do you believe in defending our borders, our constitution and our national sovereignty?

In answer to your #150 post...NO.

You've just seen the too often used bayourod tactic of saying things in so many words and then when called on it he says, "Where did I say exactly that!?" It is his way of distracting from his ludicrous statements. More of the same from one of our annoying quislings.

I'm having trouble understanding how 101,000 illegals can contribute 16 billion a year to the economy of Las Vegas.

That equates to $160,000.00 from each illegal alien. Bull! Another lie that will not even be challenged by the MSM. I can see each one COSTING $160,000 but not generating $160,000.

Notice in ALL these MSM reports that they never talk about the drain on our economy--the BILLION$ spent on incarceration, welfare, hospitlaiztion, free baby birthing and care and all the freebies the illegal aliens get.

I maintain that there is a net drain on our economy, but the leftists (including the Republican leftists) refuse to mention that.

Our politicians are trashing our nation. We have lost our national sovereignty, and an invasion is not being recognized by the politicians of both parties.

"Immigrant" has traditionally been referred to as one who legally migrates to another nation.

An illegal alien is one who trespasses, breaks the law and is part of an invasion force by an enemy nation (practical definition).

What time is it folks?? Say it with me now....time for Bayourod's daily beat down!

AKA the human punching bag.

Hey Bayourod, how about a reprise of your greatest insults?

Rednecks drinking beer on the couch while the old lady works at a tit bar. Rembember that one?

Now that he's been outed again for the umpteenth time, bayourod will do what he always does--flee the scene, go to another immigration thread and set up his illegal alien shill shop for the unwary.

Once a quisling always a quisling.

LOL, no need for bayourod to do it:

To: Jwissick

You'd have more work than you could handle. But most whiners just sit home drinking beer, watching TV and bitching about no work while their wives have to work as strippers or waitresses to pay the rent.

You remind me of the guys who sit around ice houses all day drinking beer and playing dominoes while their wives or girlfriends are waiting tables and dancing to pay the rent.
