Casa de Maryland, a taxpayer funded group that assists illegal immigrants, has made a public threat to the children of the grassroots Minuteman Civil Defense Corps that have made headlines since last fall monitoring day labor centers in the Washington DC area.
An article published yesterday by the Sean Sands of Maryland Community Newspapers Online quoted Casa de Maryland’s Executive Director Gustavo Torres saying “We are going to picket their houses, and the schools of their kids and go to their work. If they are going to do this to us, we are going to respond in the same way, to let people know their neighbors are extremists, that they are anti-immigrant. They are going to hear from us.”
The Minutemen have been photographing contractors picking up illegal aliens for work at the Wheaton day laborer center in Maryland spurring conflict with the illegal immigrant supporters.
Casa de Maryland, according to their own website, was “designed to address the multiple conditions of poverty and disenfranchisement that control the lives of many Latino immigrants and refugees“ and “achieves its goals through programs in areas such as leadership, organizing, women's empowerment, tenant support, employment, legal services, health, education, social services, and immigration assistance.”
Casa de Maryland offers an email and phone number where someone can coordinate potential employers with “experts in construction, carpentry, landscaping, babysitting, housekeeping, painting tiling, moving, odd jobs and more.” Casa de Maryland claims to have placed approximately 5,760 men and women in different daily, temporary and permanent job settings in 2004.
The group's website states Casa de Maryland has partnered with Clark Construction, Allentuck Landscaping Company and AFL-CIO to provide those seeking employment with jobs.
From Casa de Maryland’s 2004-2005 annual statement the Minuteman Civil Defense Press Corps found 51% of the groups $2.7 million came directly from grants issued on behalf of Montgomery County.
In response to the threats, Minuteman Civil Defense Corps President Chris Simcox said, “Threatening children like this is outrageous. Casa de Maryland’s funding should be pulled and its contracts cancelled. It is beyond belief that taxpayer dollars are funding this thuggish behavior."

Plus, why is the AFL-CIO involved in this? I'm sure their rank and file would have something to say about illegals taking their work
the last news I got AFL-CIO was promoting amnesty for illegals--they think they can organize them and it will save organized labor.It's beyond me(scratching head),I for the life of me,am shocked and can not conceive how they came up with this LOGIC!!??/?
Yep, the resident Quislings are mighty quiet about this.
Nice.....Terrorist tactics.

In case after case, courts are allowing these invaders to sue for back wages etc etc. Just wonderful, these criminals get to work off the books and then claim back wages.
I have no doubt about him. Since 9/11 I bet you illegals have murdered more americans than the terrorists did.
I'm just about ready to get this done and over with. Seems I can't even read FR without finding a thread that totally pisses me off anymore.
There never was. It was well hidden, though.
| We are now one of the largest Spanish-speaking nations in the world. We're a major source of Latin music, journalism and culture. Just go to Miami, or San Antonio, Los Angeles, Chicago or West New York, New Jersey ... and close your eyes and listen. You could just as easily be in Santo Domingo or Santiago, or San Miguel de Allende. For years our nation has debated this change -- some have praised it and others have resented it. By nominating me, my party has made a choice to welcome the new America. As I speak, we are celebrating the success of democracy in Mexico. George Bush from a campaign speech in Miami, August 2000. |
Here is an excerpt of a good critique of that speech:
In equating our intimate historic bonds to our mother country and to Canada with our ties to Mexico, W. shows a staggering ignorance of the civilizational facts of life. The reason we are so close to Britain and Canada is that we share with them a common historical culture, language, literature, and legal system, as well as similar standards of behavior, expectations of public officials, and so on. My Bush Epiphany By Lawrence Auster
Illegal alien terrorists bump.
The mind boggles. It's as if the elites are deliberately attempting to turn the USA into a third world nation.
Of course, the elites live very nicely in third world countries, in their gated communities and private clubs.
The largest Spanish-language speaking city in the world is, not surprisingly, Mexico City. The second is Buenos Aires.
Care to guess which U.S. city comes in at Number Three?
Who benefits? And what does history tell us is the next stage?
"How does something go from illegal,to ignored,to tax payer supported,all the while remaining illegal?"By a relentless,non-stop campaign by dims,the msm,and the rest of the so-called "liberal elite"to portray illegals as sympathetic victims simply seeking to better themselves.Anyone who objects is labeled a racist.
It is intentional. Both parties want millions more to screw the average American.
From GWB down, they want no middle class, only serfs and cheap labor.
As far as I am concerned, this will be the crushing blow to this country that 9/11 could not deliver.
If you add it up, I bet 100% that illegal invaders have murdered more Americans than the terrorists on 9/11.
Lee Malvo himself, an illegal invader, killed 13 innocent people.
So now we have a yoooooooooooonion undermining American workers in America. How pathetic can you get?
Jorge Arbusto, Quisling-in-Chief.
All true.
Don't worry, gays still can't marry. Everything is ok.
So long as gays can't can't marry and abortion not expanded, the world is and America is fine.
What a freaking joke. We are going the way of rome in a third the time.
