RIVERSIDE — An event billed as an educational forum about federal immigration law quickly became a rally against illegal immigration yesterday as speakers decried an “invasion” of illegal immigrants and warned a second Civil War is brewing.
Addressing a supportive crowd of about 30 at Spring Garden Park, speakers from the Federation for American Immigration Reform, Connecticut Citizens for Immigration Control and the Buchanan 2008 Campaign — a grassroots effort to convince political pundit Pat Buchanan, who famously called for a wall to be built along the U.S.-Mexico border, to run for president — blamed illegal immigrants for driving down wages and sucking up welfare.
The angriest rhetoric came from Miguel Cruz and Carmen Morales of You Don't Speak for Me, American Hispanic Voices Speaking Out Against Illegal Immigration, who condemned illegal immigrants for ineffectual schools, debasing U.S. culture and bastardizing the English language.
“Go back to where you came from,” Morales said. “You are not citizens. You don't belong here.”
Standing in a pavilion draped with American flags, Cruz was even more strident, calling illegal immigrants murderers, rapists, child molesters, gang members and illiterate carriers of disease.
To those who disagree, Cruz said, “You are racists; you are traitors because you hate America. To some of us, it smells like there is a civil war approaching and this American is ready.”
“I haven't seen such hate since the March on Selma,” said Dave Verduin, the president of a coalition of local business owners and landlords opposed to Riverside's recently enacted anti-illegal immigrant ordinance. “I came because they said it would be a non-partisan forum. This is misinformation; they said it would be educational.”
Your hair needs a touch up and your truck needs a washing.
Whatever.
Then why don't you all stop telling the rest of us we're not conservative "enough?"
Or Rustoleum and new paint job, and maybe a door latch on the driver door (entry only through the passenger side or crawl through the driver window, which is impossible in the winter months), new brake pads and new muffler, and new wiper blade on the driver and passenger side, bike horn on the driver side mirror, seat belts, radio, new light on front passenger side and both rear tail lights, and girlfriend in the passenger seat.
You're almost ready to roll!
Just as soon as the flat on the rear driver side is fixed!
Details, details.
Once the flat is fixed, I'll be the envy of 4 counties driving a chick magnet.
tancredo really should take a Dale Carnegie course. I may not agree with Guiliani's political positions, but he isn't a total a-hole as tamcredo is.
FOTFLOL!
Vroom-Vroom! Deedle-deedle-*pop* *bang* deedle-deedle....LOL
Spot on, indeed.
Excellent. Thank you.
No, you're one of the amusing liberals kept around as a court jester.
Say something funny now, or prepare for the axe.
LOL. I had so many things intended as a response, but I couldn't do better than yours.
I bet buchanan wished his books had this kind of staying power.
In all fairness, Howlin, we do have a huge problem with illegal immigration in the southwest. And really sometimes it seems like no one wants to stop it. Not the liberals that just want to let the whole world come in and plop down on the American sofa. And sometimes not the conservatives who like the copious cheap labor.
LOL!
You seem to be the one with illusions that you are more important than other posters or that your opinions are more valid.
Seems as though you do walk in lock step with some around here. Your posts were reasonable discussion until some others showed up, then when they posted sarcastic drivel so did you.
I have never advocated anyone being hung other than by legal authority and I don't think legal authority in the US hangs anyone these days.
I never defended hanging anyone without legal authority or what Travis said about hanging people. I made that clear in a post back a ways. I also said I did not agree with everything Travis posted or anyone else posts on FR.
This thread is a perfect example of how nasty some Freepers get when anyone dares to disagree with them.
