I had no idea there were any illegals in Escondido. I thought the whole place was one giant cookie cutter subdivision. The result will be more illegals in National City. I can’t blame them for going after public nuisance issues. Those are things all cities should be doing all the time.

If that wasn’t so freakin’ sad, it would be funny.

Who is the Congressperson for that district? What the hell are THEY doing? What is their voting record on immigration? If not in support of the people of Escondido, one of these councilmembers should against that Congressperson and kick them out— if they are not doing their job.

We need to get the whole lot of them out.....

That might be Mr. Duncan Hunter...But I stand to be corrected...

I was stationed in San Diego in the 80’s, and the illegals were not that much of a problem even though they were somewhat of a known factor in tha area...

But at the time it was mostly a transient issue as far as most of the illegals didn’t hang around too long in the San Diego area...They pressed north and east obviously to areas outside of California thinking the enforcement efforts were not as prevalent in other parts of the country...

Now obviously it is not just a border states problem anymore...

Long story short, I was at a shipmates house down in Imperial Beach (right on the border) and we were in his (fenced) backyard BBQ’ing with his family and a few other folks we served with at the time, and just as the sun was poking down on the horizon we heard a lot of street traffic screaming around the nieghborhood...

Next thing we know, three less that legal in this country humpers, jumped over the fence into our little party...No habla, but they sure got the idea that this was the wrong yard to try and hide in...

We held them for the La Migre who were still running around in the nieghborhood...I’m sure as soon as they were shown the door (gate) down in Tijuana, they weer back on the wire (border) the next afternoon waiting to jump off again...

Needless to say I bet the word got out about the backyard where they met all of us...

What’s sad is the problem seems to just go somewhere else...But the traffic is still coming in...And no one has the political courage to stop it...

On both sides of the aisle...

There’s more they can do. If illegals gather in a particular area for day jobs, make the parking in that area 2 hours or less and tow cars that are parked too long. If the illegals are using public transportation to get to the area, move the bus stops away from their hangout and make them walk. Post officers at the site to issue tickets for littering, public urination, and other violations common to these sites. Cite drivers who stop to pick up the illegals for violations such as double parking, obstructing the flow of traffic, etc.. Existing law gives them plenty of power to address the problem.

Riot Act

Let the citizens police their town for a little while. Nothing says “GET OUT NOW” like a town’s armed citizenry having the leash taken off.

It's not about courage, it's about will. Our politicians are willfully accepting tens of millions of lawbreakers to trespass and remain here for a shot at their voting block. That's not lack of courage, that's an outright cynical calculation for the retention of political power, regardless of the costs to the nation they presumably serve to represent.

Toyota Tundras are for Mexicans with a little dough what Escalades are for Soprano-wannabes Italian Americans and the Lexus RX series is for nouveau riche Indian immigrants around these parts.

"Ethnics" are causing global warming!

They managed to keep them from gathering in front of a HD here in San Diego only to see them gather across the street in front of a car dealership. The dealer was successful in getting them moved from in front of his dealership just so they could congregate in front of a furniture store about 1/2 block away. The back of the store faces the street so they do not block the entrance. While this seems to be acceptable to the powers that be I wrote the furniture store and told them I shop at their competitor’s because I refuse to spend my money at an establishment who allows this on their property. They never responded.

SSSHHHH!!!

Just in case there is the need for an undetected vigilante force
to clean up the mess.

I've always wondered about how many nice, peaceful towns are
the result of pro-active AND covert action against the pukes that
usually would get a lawyer and a multi-million dollar harassement
settlement if the legitimate law enforcement tried to take care
of the mess.

Only thing I could say is send Sheriff Joe (Maricopa County-AZ) an e-mail.
