John McCain Warns Illegal Immigration Enforcement Could Lead to Riots
The National Ledger ^ | Jun 3, 2007 | John W Lillpop

Just when the dust was beginning to settle following President Bush's latest assault on common sense, in which he accused conservatives of "spreading fear" by being honest about amnesty, Senator John McCain decided that fear mongering was not such a bad tactic after all. In fact, McCain decided that fear mongering was essential in trying to sell his amnesty snake oil to a skeptical and increasingly suspicious public.

On June 2, McCain rolled out his fear-based defense of amnesty on the campaign trail in Le Mars, Iowa. Responding to a question about deportation of illegal aliens, McCain delivered the following dilly: "In case you hadn't noticed, the thousands of people who have been relegated to ghettos have risen up and burned cars in France,'' McCain said. "They've got huge problems in France. They have tremendous problems. The police can't even go into certain areas in the suburbs of Paris. I don't want that in the suburbs of America.''

So when they show up to riot, we’ll know who they are.

Should make catching them a whole lot easier. And then show them to the door.

Oh well, only because it has been left unenforced for 60 years.

The Senators from Arizona are on the cusp of doing more damage than my two from NY.

CALL! CALL! CALL! CALL! AND KEEP CALLING TILL THE LINES FRY!

WRITE! WRITE! WRITE! WRITE! TILL YOU RUN OUT OF INK IN YOUR PEN!

Bombard the Democrats as well, especially the ones that ran on an anti illegal immigration plank and the ones in marginal districts who could be vulnerable. keep pounding on them. This is a bipartisan issue not a Conservative or Liberal issue BUT AN AMERICAN issue.

STOP AMNESTY NOW!! WE CAN DO IT!!

The best way to stop Shamnesty

Comparing the Muslim “youths” in France to the illegals here are comparing apples and oranges! OTOH, both problems can be solved the same way: deport ‘em!

With all due respect to the senator from Arizona, warning American citizens that government cannot enforce the law because it would lead to rioting is blatant fear mongering at it's lowest and most despicable.

This does not deserve respect.

Dear John: France just elected a man who called the rioters what they are .Scum! So if we object to your insane bill we should fear the scum here? It that what you are saying?

If we enforce the law, the barrios will go up in flames? Thanks Juan McCain, for reminding the base why you are NO conservative!

That’s what the second amendment and Winchester 1300 Defenders were designed for. If they try to burn my car, they’re going down.

Um I wonder what the odds are, any guesses? First this clown doesn’t wanr to torture terrorists who nuke the USA now he wants us to give in to lawbreakers. Is he part French? Does he have a clue who has the most to lose, Americans or Foreigners? Who has the home team advantage?

What happened to the first reason for government, which is to protect its citizens from all enemies foreign and domestic? I’ll not support nor be governed by a government that will not defend my country. Methinks he is bordering on the T word. Try taxing us $20,000 each to pay for illegals and see what happens. He needs to be recalled now. Send a message to the rest of the gutless cowards.

Enforcement -riots 100-1
Non-enforcement riots- 1-1
