It outrages me that our Country is being invaded illegally and Americans won’t even stand up for their own Country! And the long gone ‘free press’, are even more intimidated than the citizens. What a pathetic bunch of Wussies, with a P.
“On matters of Mexico’s outrage: The Mexican government has a deliberate policy of exporting human capital on a win/win/win/win logic: Dissidents leave central Mexico in a safety-valve fashion; Mexico saves on social services; remittances come back as the second largest source of foreign exchange; and a growing expatriate, lobbying community becomes nostalgic and fonder of Mexico the longer it is absent from it. To hide all this, the Mexican government usually plays the racial prejudice card, although most arrivals from Oaxaca will tell you that racism is more perncious in Mexican society than north of the border. This is a government, after all, that cannot provide the security, legal framework, or social services for indigenous peoples in its central interior but has no such problems when it is a question of attracting affluent North Americans to live in second homes along its picturesque coasts.”
That says it ALL in one paragraph.

Excellent article. Only Mark Steyn can top it.

It’s happened in this country before.

Once the Illegals are Legal, then the whole merry-go-round begins again - people who are legally in the US won’t put up with what they went through before. So, a new wave must come in to “do the work that Americans just won’t do.”

Mexicos Official Guide For The Mexican Migrant
In 1994, the Government of Mexico produced this 32-page comicbook-style How To guide containing information to aid Mexican citizens seeking to cross the border illegally into the United States.

VDH is brilliant as always!
I quite bluntly explained to graduating seniors that those who were Mexican American and African American had very good chances of entering Ivy League or other top graduate schools from Fresno, those who were women and Asians so-so chances, and those who were white males with CSUF BAs very little chance, despite straight A’s and top GRE scores.

I knew somebody who applied to Harvard for a PhD fellowship, and at the time was living in a predominantly black section of Baltimore, teaching at a local public school, and taking night courses at Morgan, a historically black local college (then.)
Harvard or Mass. had a no-photograph policy for applications, to avoid ‘racial bias, hahaha’; so when Ken arrived for his interview, he noticed that the interviewer was quite upset and asked him why. The interviewer said “you were given the black fellowship.” Ken thought he must have meant an endowed chair by somebody named Black. Then he realized, he had been profiled, and Harvard thought they had found a bright student of the desired color.
The laugh was on Harvard. Ken was a white graduate from Yale and [whisper]{Jewish.}
to paraphrase “ich bin ein Arizonian”.
Its a phony controversy. If you’ve traveled at all you know that in any country in the world, if you are a foreign visitor there, you are required to carry your papers with you at all times. You will be asked for them frequently by all kinds of people, cops, bank tellers, hotel clerks, government clerks, and heaven help you if you don’t have them on you.
And US law here is the same. If you are a foreign visitor you have to have your passport on you, on your person, if you go out of your domicile.
Secondly, with respect to Mexico:
I’ll believe in Mexico’s sincerity when they ease their restrictions on Guatemalans and Hondurans crossing their southern border. Is our prosperity built by access to cheap foreign labor? I’ll believe they believe that when they open their borders to cheap central american labor. They don’t believe it when it applies to themselves which means they don’t actually believe it.
Mexico has the largest quota of legal immigrant visas of any country in the world, by far; its not even close. They have yet to justify why the largest quota in the world isn’t enough. When they offer Hondurans the legal exemptions they seek for themselves, I’ll believe they are sincere.
The MSM is hardly "intimidated". They have willingly taken the side of the illegals, in service to their corrupt political agenda.
Ping!
