IF we had thinking leaders, they would realize this is the reason NOT to let millions of illegal immigrants into the country.

What was that story about Pandora's Box. Our Gov't has failed us in this whole illegals problem.

7,000 Muslims will march there Monday

On Boston Common, Punam Rogers will join other Indian émigrés, as well as business clients and students from China, Germany, and Britain.

But are they illegals?

"This is America's civil rights battle for the 21st century," says Chung-Wha Hong of the New York Immigration Coalition...

You'll have to fight GLAAD for that distinction, El Chungo.

But are they illegals?

It doesn't matter at this point. Every left-wing, radical, communist, socialist, queer, anti-gun, race-baiting group that has more than 2 members is going to use this opportunity for coming up against true Conservative Americans. Oh, let's not forget our own government.

This sh*t isn't looking real good for us at this time.

""No one could have anticipated this kind of involvement even as little as six months ago," says organizer Rich Stolz of Fair Immigration Reform Movement, one of the organizing coalitions for National Action Day.""

Sure I could have. Lots of money from the cheaper labor industries flowing into these ethnic front groups. Many of them were probably created in the NGO divisions of public relations firms. Now there's a story...

Plus many of them are protesting the "felony" provision. Brilliant move by the Dems/Industry to slip that into the House bill.

"it's going to come down to a war, a war that most illegals can't afford to wage and one that's going to be very ugly!"

The quicker it starts the better.

"Each time immigrants have these giant rallies, the more they infuriate the rest of the American population with the idea that those who break the law get to march and somehow be rewarded," says Ira Mehlman, L.A. spokesman for Federation for American Immigration Reform. "We have seen in France what happens when you try to bring in millions of people ... in many cases who are hostile. We saw there that it didn't work, and it won't work here."

The French labor--and I use the term 'labor' cautiously considering their staggering rate of unemployment--under the illusion that poverty causes terrorism and civil disobedience like we saw a few months ago.

Mehlman's reference to the French hints at more than first appears. In both the U.S. and France we have the problem of assimilation--or nearly total lack thereof. It was made clear in the rioting and vandalism of "disaffected youths" in Paris; in the flag burning and Aztlan cries of the recent L.A. rallies.

Have we seen the worst of it?

[FivebyFive]

And I'll bet there will be no INS agents to be found at that rally, either, just like the ones in Cali, Arizona, Texas, and Colorado. No illegal alien arrests, no deportations...just more and more looking the other way from the feds.

Why in the frell are we even still paying the INS when they consistantly refuse to perform the duties of their job? If I had the success rate of these guys when I performed my job, it wouldn't be mine beyond Monday.

Man, that's a lot of adjectives! You're right: these demonstrations are seen as rallying points for every kook organization out there. My followup question was this: If legal immigrants are coming out to support illegals, do they understand that amnesty moves illegals to the fore in the naturalization process while the legals still have to deal with the obligatory red tape, fees, and other such bureaucratic hoopla?

It's a rhetorical question at best, since much of the hysteria to be seen tomorrow will come from bona fide Communist agitators, the Aztlan Reconquista bunch, quixotic-- though throughly misguided--Hispanics, and others who simply have nothing better to do. Big MSM day tomorrow, for sure.

"This sh*t isn't looking real good for us .."

Words and laws will fix things.

From the Maha -

All right, immigration proposals under discussion. Let me add mine to the mix. I want to call this proposal the Limbaugh Laws. Here they are.

First, if you immigrate to the United States of America, you must speak the native language.

You have to be a professional or an investor. We are not going to take unskilled workers. You will not be allowed.

There will be no special bilingual programs in the schools, no special ballots for elections, no government business will be conducted in your native language.

Foreigners will not have the right to vote, I don't care how long they are here, nor will they ever be allowed to hold political office.

According to the Limbaugh Laws, if you're in our country, you cannot be a burden to taxpayers. You are not entitled, ever, to welfare, to food stamps, or other government goodies.

You can come if you invest here, but it must be an amount equal to 40,000 times the daily minimum wage. If you don't know have that amount of money, you can't come and invest. You have to stay home.

If you do come and you want to buy land, okay, but we're going to restrict your options. You will not be allowed to buy waterfront property in the United States. That will be reserved for citizens naturally born in this country.

In fact, as a foreigner, you must relinquish individual rights to property. These are the Limbaugh Laws.

Another thing. You don't have the right to protest when you come here. You're allowed no demonstrations, you cannot wave a foreign flag, no political organizing, no bad-mouthing our president or his policies, or you get sent home. You're a foreigner. You shut your mouth or you get out, and if you come here illegally, you go straight to jail and we're going to hunt you down 'til we find you.

I can imagine many of you think that the Limbaugh Laws are pretty harsh. I imagine today some of you probably are going, "Yeah! Yeah!" Well, let me tell you this, folks. Every one of the laws I just mentioned are actual laws of Mexico, today. I just read you Mexican immigration law. That's how the Mexican government handles immigrants to their country. Yet Mexicans and others come here illegally, they protest in our streets, they get on our welfare program, and we have members of the United States Senate, both parties, doing handstands and back flips, going through every contortion possible to allow it to continue so that it doesn't make these people mad, resulting in votes against these linguini-spined populations.

This is more than a double standard. It is an indication of just how gutless people in charge in this country are to protect the identity of this country. They don't care about border security, I know the ports deal notwithstanding, they're not doing a thing to shore up the border, because that might make somebody mad. It's a good thing there are a whole lot of Arab voters in this country or the port deal would have gone through, too.

Oh nice, a whole bunch of different factions competing for protest power. This could become a civil war of different ethnic groups vying for power, how interesting - oh wait, that's happening all over the globe: Iraq, Africa, India, etc. etc.

Isn't it WONDERFUL to see our beloved country join the cesspool of 3rd world-ism???

It's true, I guess: you can take an individual out of the 3rd world, but you can't take the 3rd world out of the individual.

The scene in Anytown, U.S.A., April 10, 2006--as history will record it:

What was an otherwise sunny, pleasant day for a rally turned violent when Socialists for Immigrants' Rights demonstrators clashed with demonstrators from Immigrants for Animal Rights over which group would have control of the area adjacent to the soy tent. Jorge Washington, a 24 year-old self described "recreationist" and member of Gay Kenyan-Mexican-Americans for Peace, witnessed what he called, "crazy stuff." He continued, "It's like the instinct to hurl a pie at people you disagree with is like so overwhelming, you know? You have to throw something." It is believed that the melee started when one SIR protestor lobbed their Silk frozen yogurt at the IAR camp. No injuries were reported, but many feelings were hurt. Spokespeople from both IAR and SIR declined interviews, though both expressed deep regret over the incident.

Over 4,500 demonstrators from 25 different groups had gathered Monday to protest the controversial House bill 4437, which would make illegal immigration a felony rather than a civil offense.
