Swing by Home Depot with pick ups<<

Does Home Depot hire illegals, or allow construction companies to pick up workers out front? If so, I have some work to do at our local Home Depot.

I'm sorry if this sounds like way, way too obvious, but....

Why don't they just convince mexicans not to cross the border for the rest of the year? Wouldn't that really show us? Boy, I bet if we didn't have to monitor the borders for the rest of 2005 we would learn our lesson.

Is it too much to ask that when crossing into the US that you use the roads which are paved already? It would be rude for you to enter your friends homes via a window or A/C duct, yet that is exactly what is happen now which is requiring the Minutemen to patrol the border.

But it is nice to finally see Mexico put some person on the border for any purpose at all. Its the first time I can recall that I've heard of anybody actually going to the border from the other side.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't individuals or groups that help or enable illegal immigrants enter this country committing a crime?

Probably, but it is a politically correct crime, therefore, most likely, none will ever face the music.

The ONLY option at present is to continue to bombard them with letters and e-mails, and refuse to vote for ANYONE who ignores this issue.

Groups like the Minutemen deserve our support. If we were really concerned, we should be down there too. We should have THOUSANDS of enraged Americans along the southern border willing to stop these hordes.

We should have MILIONS of Americans converging on Washington to demonstrate against this, demand those weasels in Washington stop it. Remember the Ukrainians??

Unless we do something to impress upon our elected officials the urgency we demand they extend to this problem, they are content to collect their pay, look forward to their pensons, and thumb their collective noses at us.

We should also support a grass-roots movement to draft Tancredo for President under the Republican banner. Even if he has no real chance, the publicity brought to bear will help the cause.

The other thing we can do is start complaining - loud and often - at the bilingual crap. Even now, if you go to the U.S. Presidential Website, you can sign on "En Espanol"!!!!

I've written, emailed and faxed my reps and the President. I've signed petitions, I've done everything I can think of, but I still feel like they aren't hearing the American people about this immigration issue. Do they care?

Have you walked the fence with the Minutemen?

"Some Latino activists, such as the Brown Berets de Aztlan, will be stationed at the Mexican side of the border to advise border crossers to take another route."

Wow, "the Brown Berets de Aztlan" as nothing more than "Latino activists". Couldn't sugar coat it much more than that.

I saw the link when I signed on to hotmail. It was one of the headlines on the left, near the bottom. Regret I don't know how to post links...

Another gaggle of Latino troublemakers which ought to relocate to Mexico where their loyalties lie. These are the pukes who run around waving Mexican flags at every opportunity and never miss a chance to badmouth our country and our loyal Americans. I have nothing but contempt for this pack of agitators.

I'm a little confused by this tactic. It's like shopping at Wal Mart to protest globalism.

I don't get it either.

Dr. Navarro should just ignore the hype and close up shop for the summer.

I need a new ceiling fan, was going to Home Depot this week-end. Guess instead of buying a fan, I'll observe the goings-on outside. Take down license plates, company names...save for Minuteman II.

On May 1, the National Alliance for Human Rights will try to "close the border' by persuading those intending to cross over legally from Agua Prieta, Mexico, to Douglas, Ariz., not to do so for several hours.

...

"The intent is not just to dramatize the interdependency of the economy and the role the immigrant plays to our economy ... but secondly, (it is) to make sure the pressure on the administration to get off its you-know-what and start moving in the direction of some real immigration reform,' Navarro said.

OMG!
Think how much more effective it would be to persuade your fellow illegals to stop crossing over for, say... um... 5 years or so!

Unfortunately, I don't think there is much else that you can do.
