WASHINGTON While debates about guest-worker programs for illegal aliens take place in the corridors of power, in the streets of America's big cities no amnesty is being offered by activists calling for the expulsion of most U.S. citizens from their own country.
While politicians debate the fate of some 12 million people residing in the U.S. illegally, the Mexica Movement, one of the organizers of the mass protest in Los Angeles this week, has already decided it is the "non-indigenous," white, English-speaking U.S. citizens of European descent who have to leave what they call "our continent."
Marchers say gringos, not illegals, have to go Activists turn tables, offer no amnesty for 'non-indigenous' on 'our continent
WASHINGTON While debates about guest-worker programs for illegal aliens take place in the corridors of power, in the streets of America's big cities no amnesty is being offered by activists calling for the expulsion of most U.S. citizens from their own country.
While politicians debate the fate of some 12 million people residing in the U.S. illegally, the Mexica Movement, one of the organizers of the mass protest in Los Angeles this week, has already decided it is the "non-indigenous," white, English-speaking U.S. citizens of European descent who have to leave what they call "our continent."
The pictures and captions tell the story.
"This is our continent, not yours!" exclaimed one banner.
"We are indigenous! The only owners of this continent!" said another.
"If you think I'm illegal because I'm a Mexican, learn the true history, because I'm in my homeland," read another sign. "One of the more negative parts of the march was when American flags were passed out to make sure the marchers were looked on as part of 'America,'" said the group's commentary on the L.A. rally.
Both Rep. James Sensebrenner, R-Wis., chairman of the House Judiciary Committee and a proponent of tougher border security, and California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger were caricatured as Nazis by the group on its posters and banners.
The group insists the indigenous people of the continent were the victims of genocide a campaign of extermination that killed, according to one citation, 95 percent of their population, or 33 million people. Another citation on the same website claims the toll was 70 million to 100 million.
The only solution, says the Mexica Movement, is to expel the invaders of the last 500 years, force them to pay reparations and return the continent to its rightful heirs.
The platform of the group illustrates the diverse and sometimes extreme agendas of those participating in the mass mobilizations that have been seen largely as protests against efforts to curb illegal immigration.
Some of those involved, including the Mexica Movement, have much bigger goals than stopping a piece of legislation before Congress.
The Mexica Movement has big issues with many other equally radical groups participating in the massive, united-front rallies. The group makes a point of distinguishing its goals and objectives from others, such as the separatist Aztlan Movement.
Aztlan, the mythical birthplace of the Aztecs, is regarded in Chicano folklore as an area that includes California, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico and parts of Colorado and Texas. The movement seeks to create a sovereign, Spanish-speaking state, "Republica del Norte," or the Republic of the North, that would combine the American Southwest with the northern Mexican states and eventually merge with Mexico.
A group called "La Voz de Aztlan," the Voice of Aztlan, identifies Mexicans in the U.S. as "America's Palestinians." Many Mexicans see themselves as part of a transnational ethnic group known as "La Raza," the race. A May editorial on the website, with a dateline of Los Angeles, Alta California, declares that "both La Raza and the Palestinians have been displaced by invaders that have utilized military means to conquer and occupy our territories."
Others in the coalition hope to see a "reconquest" of the American southwest by Mexico. This would not likely take place through military action, they say, but rather through a slow process of migration both legal and illegal.

How nice!
Ship em ALL BACK and don't allow them BACK!
You will not see this heart-stopping photo on the front page of the NY Times or on the lead story of the major news networks. You should (hat tip: Mika and F/R):
Most of the members of the open-borders media won't dare breathe a word about this militant phenomenon, lest they be accused of...racism. Oh, the irony.

You're so right.
If that "Arab Communi... and Social Servi..." banner doesn't scare everybody into seeing clearly the multi-headed, Hydra-like threat pourous borders and uncontrolled, illegal aliens are posing to national security, I don't know what will.
The inverted American flag is particularly offensive.
How long before it heats up into a violent guerilla action?
Five years, ten, thirty, maybe forty years?
I can certainly see handing the US over to them. After all, they've done such a terrific job of running Mexico. < /s>
The only useful purpose of an article like this that I can see is that it forces the rest of us to think about things that are stuffed into civilization's attic, which suddenly seem like matters more pressing than plama TVs, whether we do or don't build a base on the moon, and whether "multiculturalism" means anything.
The mentality that this article represents is quite similar to the muslim one, and ultimately just as deadly.
All right. Time to re-examine the social contract. The transformation, eons ago, from a tribal to an organized society based on impulses and passions other than ignorance, and who has the biggest rock.
I would summarize the whole idea as an examination of the limits of tolerance. The reawakening of the primitive (essential?) part of human nature that "civilization" tends to suppress. Fight back? or simply embrace victimhood?
We live in interesting times.
Somehow, I suspect that humanity is not quite ready to be pulled, kicking and screaming, back to a stone age existence.
How does one reason with a mentality that has no clue of such a simple concept as "genocide"? or "mine"? or "if I take over an advanced technological society, I am helpless and totally unequiped to preserve it"?
Time to take these vermin seriously, and kick some delusional butt!
You Lost Get Over It Now Go Home....
Well, then, we have ourselves a problem. As a famous fictional character said, "what we have here is failure to communicate".
It takes a very tiny bit of brainpower to see the result of most of the remaining 300+ million people in the U.S. also refusing to take "NO for an answer!
I agree with the many posters I suspect will be voicing the same response to this aggressive, arrogant display of ignorance:
There is a limit to tolerance; a point where the majority needs to stop being spectators and become participants. I feel sorry for these "indiginous" doofuses when that happens.

At the Battle of San Jacinto about 800 militia took on about 1600 Mexican regulars. It is recorded that it was over in about 13 minutes. Tradition says Santa Ana was caught sneaking away in women's clothing.
This is exactly what the US and NATO help support when they handed the Serbian province of Kosovo over to a bunch of illegal immigrants from Albania along with their criminal and Islamofascist supporters.
We helped set the precedent and now we reap what Bill Clinton has sown.
The only solution, says the Mexica Movement, is to expel the invaders of the last 500 years, force them to pay reparations and return the continent to its rightful heirs.
Do they realize they are probably descendants of the Spaniards who first "discovered" Mexico? Another thing, why isn't the call for "reparations" surprising me?
I used to go to Mexico often and I enjoyed it. I Don't go there any more, by conscious choice.
Over the few years that I did it, the unfortunate fact that I know the language perfectly forced a reality on me that I could not accept: there is a seething hatred and resentment there, suppressed out of self interest, and I could no longer tolerate feeding it willingly.
Now it has come to us.
And if they think I will simply accept it, they are wrong. Dead wrong.
