This touches on why we have such a big number of illegal aliens. People come into this country, and have little fear of being deported if found to have overstayed their visa.

I’ve heard that a significant percentage of illegals in this country actually entered legally, with a tourist or other visa, and simply never go home. While big numbers sneak across the Mexican border, untold numbers arrive legally at our airports from overseas, and just stay here.

You can bet your sweet bippy that the U.S. taxpayers will be paying some dumbass “immigration lawyer” to “fight” for this clown’s “right” to stay here. I love this country!!!

Meanwhile, our troops returning from war zones have all of their stuff examined with a fine tooth comb by customs people.

California is politically conquered. I expect any day to see the Mexican flag hoisted over our public buildings thus symbolizing the finalization of the conquest. (They may first demand the Mexican flag be hoisted alongside the American flag just to avoid unduly upsetting any Americans left in the state.)

Back to disease these Latin Americans have brought their own diseases; i.e. Dengue Fever, Tuberculosis, parasites. The idiot American was indifferent to the conquest, the tax burden and now must pay the price with poverty, disease, insult, assaults and death of themselves and their loved ones. Many seeing this post will live to watch the death of those they love-Soon!

The game of Ebola Roulette continues...

*click* spin *click* spin *click* spin…BANG!

Eeeee-bolllll-aaaaaa ping!

Bring Out Your Dead

We’re gonna need

a bigger cart!

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

Don’t worry about that. By next Wednesday or so, the only question of his future residency will be what to do with the puddle of what’s left of his corpse.

Mohammed Atta would agree. He only came here and overstayed his visa to be able to have the opportunity he dreamed of.

He came here for free room/board and free medical treatment for his Ebola.

With the deadly pcism of the liberals, who control our borders, we can expect a few million more terminally sick "visitors" with all types of diseases.

Or maybe not, since the Ninth Circus just found in favor of banning kids in a public school from wearing shirts displaying the American flag, while the Mexican interlopers can wear shirts displaying the Mexican flag.

American courts now have a significant percentage of people who favor the seditious, treasonous and the more usual criminal element of our society. As an aside look at the demographics of the actual judges making the ruling you to which you refer.(I ave not actually looked but am willing to speculate.)
