Too bad there's no information regarding party affiliation. For the ones eligible to vote, anyway. My guess is it breaks about 60 dem, 40 GOP.

I'd bet the farm mass amnesty is the only thing keeping the democratic party afloat at this point.

Whether it's only a stop-gap OR a longer-term solution, keeping them from voting is a MUST; even after the welfare-state (which attracts the moocher-types) is disassembled.

I'm TOTALLY AGAINST guest worker drivers' licenses or I.D. cards UNLESS THEY SAY IN BIG BOLD LETTERS:

TEMPORARY PERMIT: NON-CITIZEN  GUEST WORKER
Search THOROUGHLY at ALL border 
and transportation checkpoints.
>  MAY NOT VOTE.  <
MAY NOT RECEIVE FOOD STAMPS OR OTHER WELFARE.
MAY NOT RECEIVE FREE NON-EMERGENCY MEDICAL CARE.
NOTIFY THE INS IF THE SPONSORING EMPLOYER OR 
ADDRESS IS WRONG OR IF CONVICTED OF A FELONY.

Thanks.

Americans are getting mad about this..

mad about having to compete for jobs with illegals willing to work below minimum wage..

mad about having crowds of illegals on our street corner, waiting to be picked up by a landscaping crew, getting drunk and relieving themselves on our lawns

mad about having our streets overtaken by MS-13 and other illegal alien street gangs

mad about having illegal alien criminals and murderers flee south of the border, and avoid extradition because Vincente doesn't like the death penalty

mad about having illegals building tent cities and homeless encampments in middle class suburban areas

mad about being expected to learn Spanish to live in our country

Patriotic Americans are mad as hell, and they aren't going to take it anymore.

And the Republican party leadership better wake up and stand up for BORDER SECURITY, or the American people will find somebody who will. Somebody who's not afraid to stand up to Vincente.

...our schools crowded, jails full of illegal criminals, street and traffic congestion, water and other resources depleted (this is SoCal...a DESERT, remember?)...

Anybody else?

One out of every ten Americans is foreign-born.

One out of every four Californians is foreign-born.

That is a recipe for social disheaval.

Ping for reading later.

Did you mean social upheaval?

Disheaval (n.) the sudden state of confusion created when some piece of equipment malfunctions at just the wrong time.

I missed this yesterday, I'll try to read it this weekend. This was from another thread, by AP. Interestingly, no one noticed the hispanic births mentioned.I assume the overall rate includes the Hispanics, so they're having babies 3 to 1 to the rest of us.

Among other statistics in the report:

-- Births to unmarried mothers rose slightly.

-- Women of Hispanic origin had the highest birth rate, 96.9 per 1,000 women, compared to the overall rate of 66.1.

-- Two teenage girls younger than 15 gave birth to at least their fourth child.

-- There were 1,512 first-time mothers between the ages of 45 and 54.

"That is a recipe for social disheaval."


From an AP, US 2003 statistics:
Women of Hispanic origin had the highest birth rate, 96.9 per 1,000 women, compared to the overall rate of 66.1.

If all this immigration is so good, why does California have to borrow money to pay the day to day operations of state government?

BTW, if I was born is a third world above ground cesspool, I'd hope I would have enough moxie to run, jump or swim to a better place.

All that you listed is just the beginning --- wait until the beggars from Mexico show up in your community --- you have to step around them sitting outside your stores with their little cups and cartons of chicklets they sometimes sell. Women of indeterminate age surrounded by 6 or 7 young children and a newborn in her arms. Just like what you see in Mexico. They're coming --- the whole mess is coming.

And Texas is getting to the same point --- and the more money that is thrown at the problem the bigger the problem becomes. And the problem moves north. If federal and state money going to prop up border economies slowed down then you would see another massive exodus of people heading north and eastward.

My guess is it breaks about 60 dem, 40 GOP.

40% GOP could be a high figure.

Link to F.A.I.R. article

(snippet)
An analysis of voting patterns across the country shows that voting by new citizens has been the deciding factor in numerous elections, and in nearly every case, has broken to the Democrats’ advantage.

New Poll up:

Do you believe the intelligence reform bill must contain a provision that prevents illegal aliens from obtaining driver's licenses?

Yes 87% 1388 votes

No 13% 201 votes

Total: 1589 votes
