Immigration Rally’s Live Thread

Apr. 9th, 2006 | Danae

[Danae]

Ok, here on FoxNews we have, oh abut 1000K people gathering in white t-shirts in Dallas. If you aren’t paying attention to this, you should be.

I am going to propose a heretical idea. We have 11 MILLION or so of these people who are HERE, and they are NOT going to be leaving soon. If even a third of those 11 million get even slightly militant, we have one VERY serious problem. VERY, VERY serious. Here is the idea: Against the strident advise of the all the lawmakers in Washington, we just give them all amnesty. Then the GOP leads the drive to register and assimilate these under grounders, get them English language, insurance, paying taxes, and all the legitimate trappings of being a US citizen. Why? Because then they will be LOYAL to us and the United States. Otherwise we have an occupying force on our shores, one that if it turned violent, oh man… I don’t even want to think about it.

The Rally is so far peaceful. And I hope it stays that way, but we have to address the problem, and fast. We all need to get on board with this simple fact, no matter what is done, there is NOT going to be a solution that makes anyone overly happy. Let’s just buckle down and do what NEEDS to be done rather than what we WANT done. If we don’t lead the way, then the Illegals WILL. That is NOT a pretty thought!

Ok Flame away, we all know that those in power look at this site, let's start giving them some ideas.

[Danae]

~ Ok ok ! I know that is not a popular idea! Come up with a better one! :)

[Andy from Beaverton]

There's never a border guard when you need one!

[Hexenhammer]

You can tell just how loyal they will be by all of the foreign flags they wave at their protests. :D

You are right, no solution will make everybody happy. But let's focus on the solution that will make legal resident Americans happy and secure.

[Kimberly GG]

Line them ALL up facing south and march them over a military-enforced border. Then DARE them to come back.

[jocon307]

Your plan will work well, if what you want is 50 million amnestied illegals here in another 15 years.

[monkeywrench]

We set aside the bedrock of our country, the 'rule of law', out of fear of a mob? Go hide under your bed.

[FloridianBushFan]

There is a plan its called HR4437.
No Amnesty for illegals.

We do not reward people for breaking the law. That goes for the illegals and anyone who hires them.

[upchuck]

1000K

Are you sure about that?

That's 1,000,000 people.

As for ideas, some of us have been discussing this over here.

[SelectiveJNJ]

Foxnews reported there was 100,000 people but it looks more like a million. It is going to take 40 years for us to get rid of all of them. 40 years is fine for me...as long as it gets done!

[Danae]

That is nothing but the truth. We have a really big problem, I am thinking that our President is gonna have to take another one for the team and just do it, let the GOP hammer him so they don't lose any votes out of it and get it done. Certainly no one would expect him to do that, it would come as a complete surprise to everyone, unless he planned it with STRATGERY with Karl and the other leaders in the party, so they can figure out how bes to profit from the situation. Frankly, we are otherwise at the mercy of the Illegals and everyone else.

[Danae]

I agree completely! Better Idea please! That's why I have put this up here!

[Bahbah]

You can tell just how loyal they will be by all of the foreign flags they wave at their protests.

The organizers have put out very clear instructions that the marchers are to carry American flags. I will certainly be fooled by this.

[Danae]

That would take most of the ENTIRE National guard. I am not opposed to the idea, it just isn't even slightly practical.

[Danae]

That is NOT a better idea. Cough it up!

[Danae]

Thanks I will look.

BTW, I was exagerating, though country wide that number is not at all out of line.

[Kimberly GG]

I was just re-reading what you wrote....."give them all amnesty.......... Otherwise we have an occupying force on our shores"

What would giving them amnesty do? They'd go from being illegal to legal, but they'd still be occupying force on our shores, only their name would change.

I agree though that the situation could escalate. We could easily see what happened in France happen here, or worse, a civil war. Why do I feel as if we are being threatened to accept this invasion on their terms?

[Danae]

Then how do we integrate those that are here? And do it fast in a way to win their LOYALTY to the United States. The Organizations that have gotten these people together for these whit t-shirt Rallies, are ALSO proposing that the land they take over belongs to Mexico! THAT is an invading force. We NEED these people loyal to THIS country. How best to do that and do it fast is the question.

[L98Fiero]

"You are right, no solution will make everybody happy."

When you try to please everyone, you end up pleasing no one. WE are the citizens and our will should be done. I'm not holding my breath, though.

[Danae]

LOL Me too! lol I think the organizers are NOT wanting to spook the Government. This is a LOT of people. I mean more than some armies could field a few centuries back. This is nothing to shirk off, I am sure they DO NOT want the US Government thinking they are in any way hostile, because then we WILL deport their illegal arses. Which I am more for than against. I don't like this either.

[MBB1984]

Disagree that we need them to be loyal to this country. We need to throw their arses out and the sooner the better. If we can liberate Iraq, surely we can do a better job of protecting our border and be able to round up the criminals invading our country.

America can do what it really wants to do. If it fails to throw the criminals out, American society will die as we know it shortly.
