These people have some nerve coming to the country and making demands.
Of course, they are encouraged by the President.
The reality is mexicans dont like our white cracker
society, they arent going to assimilate wether they are given amnesty or not,they dont like you no matter what you give them because you are a honky white butt,
What is it going to take to get you to realize you are never going to be their friend?
Send a thank you to the City Manager for having the balls to represent the LEGAL citizens of the town. I just hope they don't back down in the face of expensive lawsuits by MALDEF, ACLU, LULAC etc.

Hard not to assume a FACT.
It may have made a difference for some of us if the ILLEGAL aliens had at least faked a favorable regard for the opportunities here; even a little respect for our language and culture -- our businessmen and government had already told them, "Screw the borders, come on in!" -- would have helped.
Rather than gratitude and harmony the majority of ILLEGALS seem to have chosen harping and haranguing. A lot of eyes were opened last May -- can't blame the MSM for only featuring the trouble makers. The MSM didn't force those hundres of thousands to come out with their home country flags, shouting "yes we can!"
The Hispanic block will NOT allow this to continue. Hide and watch, wait and see.
No problem, produce documents showing your legal and you have no problem. I have to when I stay in a foreign country, why shouldn't our illegal population.
Why is enforcing our laws considered racist?

Thank God someone is making sense for once!
I have no problem with anyone from any country coming here legally and becoming an American like the rest of us.
If being an illegal alien isn't viewed and treated as a crime (illegal) then remove the laws. Otherwise, enforce the dang laws!
I agree 100% with what this town is doing!! I'm sure the LEGAL immigrants agree too. I know my Mexican (now American) neighbor doesn't like seeing his tax dollars go to support people who are here illegally, and neither do I.
Praise God that there are still people left in this country that have some brains and gonads.
