"Another county in Virginia Attacks Undocumented (sic) People"
10 August of 2007
Spotsylvania, Virginia, The United States - The County of Spotsylvania, VA has now joined the increasing number of localities of the state of Virginia that try to impose strict regulations against the undocumented inmmigrantes. Chris Yakabouski, director of the governing body of the county, has order the bureaucracy to report to him next week on sutides of how to deny public services those who are in the county without documents (sic), although the gravity or size of the problem is not known. <"Perhaps not even one is a problem", said to Yakabouski Thursday.
Maria Rivas, proprietor of the El Asador (The Spit), a Latino restaurant in Spotsylvania, said that what is happening in the neighboring Prince William County is worrisome to the Hispanics in the region. "People are scared. They do not leave their houses, not even to come here", asserted Rivas by means of an interpreter.
The population of Hispanic in Spotsylvania has grown to more of the double. The same one has increased of about two 2,536 Hispanic residents in the 2000 to about six 6,195 in the 2005. The most recent number represents near 5.3% of the calculated total of 119,530 total residents of Spotsylvania.
This week the the County Commissioners of the County of Culpeper, VA voted to establish that the official language of their county would be English, and civil employees of the county of Chesterfield have instructed to draw up within the next weeks which services can be denied the undocumented immigrants (illegal aliens) to him.
Meanwhile, civil employees of Spotsylvania are studying to reinforce the house measures because some residents complain about over-population and too many vehicles parked on lawns and in narrow streets. Yakabouski said that it wants to anticipate any problem before it is materialized, if it is that there are them, and before they become very great. "I do not want that my county arrives at the point in which is now the County of Prince William" is at, he asserted. The last month, civil employees of the Prince William County, Virginia ordered the local police there to review the state of those who are in the country without proper documents. They also ordered county government to deny public services to undocumented immigrants (illegal aliens). Then, the civil employees of the Loudoun county followed the same example.
"If in the north they are tightening the nuts, we will see that effects down here", wrote Yakabouski, a Republican whom is challenging in November the democrat Senator R. Edward Houck."
(TRANSLATION)
Hispanic press often says "undocumented" or "immigrants" when both a clear euphemisms for "illegal aliens". In other words, they do not make any distinction between legal and illegal immigration. Therefore, this article contains some of the usage of the words.
Spreading issue in Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, George, Tennessee and other states.
“they are tightening the nuts”
Which can be very painful.
But not as painful as reading a computer “translation.” Ouch.
Should be: "Perhaps there isn't even a problem," Yakabouski said Thursday.
The only time Mexicans will refer to an illegal alien is when it’s a yank living illegally down in Mexico!
Thank you for posting these kind of articles from this site.
Right on, here in Thailand where I live Even though I am married to a Thai Citizen, I can’t get a green card unless I am rich enough to buy it. I can only stay 90 days at a time, then have to go out of the country. If you get cought, it is about $10.oo US a day, and you can go to jail and sent back to where your passport is from, period, no get out of jail free card. I don’t like it, my Visa runs cost more than our living expenses, but if The USA wants to remain free, we need to get tough like the Thais about immigration. I am still an American , and always will be, I just prefer the weather, food, and lifestyle here out in the hills of the North.
I forgot to mention that it costs about 1,000.00 US less a month to live comfortably here than to live in poverty in a really bad neighborhood where I don’t want to raise my son.
“In other words, they do not make any distinction between legal and illegal immigration.”
And why should they? They are a culture that condones lawbreaking. What do they care about what is and isn’t legal?
I think this euphemism is the least offensive and yet gets right to the point ~ that TOURISTS, documented or not, are not intended to stay here forever, are not immigrants, and are not supposed to take employment, buy houses, buy cars, get drivers licenses, and all those other things citizens or permanant legally admitted immigrants are allowed or are supposed to do.
Let's just back all the way out of the "immigrant" language ~ and still softpeddle the message ~ to wit, they don't live here, their time is up, they must go home ~ just like any other tourist!
Enjoy!
Too bad. Maybe there is some hope the country can control who comes across its borders.
It will depend who gets the nomination on the Republican side. The Democrat nominee, whomever it is, will support illegal immigration therefore will not bring up the issue or harp on it. IMHO, if Rudy, or McCain, or several others get the nomination, it will not be a top issue. However, if Duncan Hunter, Fred Thompson, Tom Tancredo, Ron Paul turn out to be the nominee, you can bet it will be a major part of the election in the GOP-Democrat debates and General Election.
You are welcome. It is a public service.
Japan with Japan and its approach to illegal aliens. The second largest economy in the world. The US could learn a lot of lessons. But there is effectively no ACLU in Japan, so therefore they are able to keep their country sovereign, unlike the United States which will simply just be destroyed and decayed over the long haul.
Yes, I am aware of those things.
That’s not the intent, nor the expected outcome.

I understand the intent but disagree on the outcome. That, in part, is the Unintended Consequence for all but the most desperate.
With a lot more of these folks staying home, the pressure will be on the Mexican government as their relief valve is starting to close. Interesting times ahead for them.
