Immigration Rally’s Live Thread

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.

Did you hear about this? (post 73)

We need to throw their arses out and the sooner the better

I am all for throwing them all out by any means necessary. I've defended President Bush on almost every issue but he is wrong headed on this. Not only is he wrong headed but his demands that Congress pass pass "guest worker" (also known a amnesty) legislation is going to destroy the Republican Party if they listen to him instead of the voters.

[La Enchiladita]

It was just mentioned that George P. Bush (President's Nephew) is speaking at the rally. I support the President on almost everything, but he is wrong on this issue. He needs to listen to the American public. The ones who voted of him and are saying NO Amnesty.

Floridian Bush Fan heard on WFAA AM that George P. would be speaking to the Dallas pro-illegals rally. Stay tuned....

[La Enchiladita]

From Florida Bush Fan's lips to God's children's ears!!!

My, my, my....

[jerry639]

I am with you. Quite well prepared too.

It is insanity to give amnesty along with citizenship and other perks to these criminals. It is a sure way to destroy this country. The terrorists must be celebrating.

"Let’s just buckle down and do what NEEDS to be done"

What NEEDS to be done is the passage and enforcement of HR 4437. This country will be history in 10 years or less without it.

You are in Oregon. I have a feeling that you are clueless as to what is coming your way. Listen to your fellow FReepers in the states hardest hit. We're trying to tell you what's coming your way. There is no Kumbaya fix for this. We either defend our southern border or America as you know it is done for.

We need severe sanctions against the employers.

Then we need to have a guest worker program to keep the people we want to keep.

Basically, an employer hiring a non citizen must pay for a minimum level of health care. The employee must not be on govt. assistance or they lose their guest worker priviledge. Plus a guest worker pays no ssi tax and receives no benefits. And a guest worker pays a flat 15% tax rate to pay for US defense and infrastructure. And each worker pays a $200 dollar annual filing fee to keep the "guest worker license" which should pay to administer the program.

People who serve in the US military 10 years become citizens.

Life is way too easy for these illegal people.

You can't possibly believe that. Overstatements always get you in trouble.

There were no riots today, and there won't be any riots tomorrow. Apparently there won't be anything but large groups of people peacefully marching.

Not what I am hearing on Drudge tonight - not very peaceful in Dallas today and I look for violence in Phoenix tomorrow.

[nikola]

It's crystal clear to me now that we're done as a country. These politicians have managed to destroy this country and we are now in a position to lose the constitution. All these illegals have taken over the whole of the southern US. Where are you CITIZENS from the South? Where are you while your country is being sold and there are hundreds of thousands of aliens taking over?! Rise up and do your own protest! You will not get any help from the Bush... he has sold you years ago! He, and the whole cabinet, should be tried for treason. Where is Chertoff? Why isn't he arresting all these illegals?! Is he indifferent because he has a dual citizenship and has a place to go once the pillaging of this country is finished?!

Insanity! This country is falling apart while everyone else is watching their sitcoms and other brainwashing propaganda that TV stations are airing these days.

This is exactly how the Roman Empire was destroyed. The barbarians are inside the Rome and everyone's sedated from indifference.

Disgusting.

Drudge doesn't know what he's talking about. Every local newscast had the police chief of Dallas, David Kunkle, saying there were no--not ANY--incidents. He had 500 officers, 200 members of the sheriff's department out, and all they did was direct traffic and move everybody along.

[staytrue]

Move to Ohio. No mexicans, cheap real estate, lots of unemployed delphi and GM workers, and lots of elderly caucasians too.

[FloridianBushFan]

If you read all this correctly most of us are not talking about closing the borders to legal immigrants. I am all for legal immigrants coming to this country for a better life and respect this country. They need to come here legally and obey the laws of this country.

We are talking about all the illegal immigrants who come here illegally breaking the law. They use are tax dollars for school, medicine and to live. And our citizens do with out. They need to be sent home. They came here illegally and know need to go home. No amnesty for illegals.

[FloridianBushFan]

Yes I know who his mom is she is the first lady of the state I live in.

[SmoothTalker]

"40 years is fine for me...as long as it gets done!"

It won't. El Presidente and the US Senate will make sure of that.

I have had this idea mulling around in my head for the past several days. How about we trade off all our "career" welfare moochers for every illegal who wants to work and pay taxes.

Welfare recipients that have been receiving benefits for more than 3 years. They have been receiving free medical and dental. Imagine all the money we could save by sending them to Mexico and replacing them with working Mexicans. We could tell them that it's another "benefit" ... a vacation to Mexico. Just a thought.
