Slowly at first, but now gathering momentum. I've been saying for some time now that the tipping point would be a state governor getting on board. Now we have Matt Blunt of Missouri taking up the standard. That's including the state legislature of Oklahoma in everything but name. Percolating up from below, rather than from the top down, just like welfare reform in the nineties; illegal immigration "reform" is picking up steam.

The beauty of it is the more illegals are driven out of some states the more pressure they put on their neighbors and the more popular clamor there to do likewise.

And ever more pressure on the congressional representatives of same (regardless of party).

I hope a lot of other states jump on this bandwagon. I know my state will be one of the last, (sigh). But they won’t be able to resist if all the neighbors are doing it.

You're starting to see this around the country. They're trying to scare people and they're saying 'We don't want you here,'" said William Sanchez, lead attorney for the National Coalition of Latino Clergy and Christian Leaders, which has filed suit to stop a new Oklahoma law that became effective Thursday.

No, we want you here. We really, really want you here.In fact, we're going to open up all the border crossing points and allow unlimited, unfettered access to our country. And, after you get here, you can get a free education, free medical care, Hell--we'll throw in a new car and a first-round draft choice!

Better late than never obviously, but without a stricter border enforcement where they are breaking the law by crossing, it may be more of too little too late. Spitzer isn’t helping, so I appreciate good news like this story.

As I’ve said before, a border fence is only of limited use, unless governors, mayors, police, and other authorities ENFORCE THE LAWS.

We also need a president who will enforce the law, and a congress that will withhold funds from any jurisdictions that refuse to enforce the law. Employers should be prosecuted, and welfare should be refused. Healthcare shouldl only be provided in genuine emergencies. Public schools should be reserved for citizens who pay the taxes that run them.

At the moment, the US is like a giant honey magnet drawing in illegals. That will only cease when it is no longer attractive to them.

And another beauty is it will move them more into “sanctuary cities” where the sheeple there will eventually morph into the anti-illegal crowd.

Sooner or later, it’s bound to happen. The “tolerant ones” amongst us will get their fill.

...unfairly harassing and intimidating both illegal and legal immigrants.

By stopping and deporting the illegals? They've had a nice, free ride up until now. All depends on the definition of 'harass' I guess...

This is fantastic. Hopefully, we can eventually push them all into sanctuary cities (barf), and they can have alllllll they want.

Course, I am in Kansas. I doubt my idiot demonrat governor will follow suit.

for now this is just boob bait for the bubbas.

until a class of politicians takes up the mantle to oppose the Noprth American Union then there will be no controls placed on the transfer of 3rd world migrants to the US.

The alien invasion is an equalization process to avoid the major economic shock like that endured by West germany when the walls came down and they unified with east germany.

It is also designed to minimize political shock. When about 25-30% of the population will be recently from a 3rd world it will be safe for the US ruling class lawmakers to begin overt actions to create the NAU. This will provide a political buffer that will dampen rebellion minded native Americans (no, not just Indians)when they finally make NAU law.
Any protests ortganized by gras-root Americans to oppose NAU and throw politicians out will be immediately dwarfed by huge counter-protests organized by high paid organizers, funded by billions, and will dominate the news.

they will convince the general public that only a very few wackos are oppsoed to the NAu and it is hopeless, and ignorant, racist, homophobic, antiprogressive, to oppose the NAU.

it is already happening exactly like that.

This is all about the permanent emplacement of a global ruling class, currently dominated by global corporate executives and their socialist academic puppets.

The Constitution is dead, but even worse, the American man has been bred out of existence. There are likely not eneough real men left to foment a revolution against the 2 political parties and the ruling class.

We do not need to revolt against the government. We need to support the government and constitution. We must impeach and remove the criminals who call themselves Republicans and Democrats. ALL of them.

If you like any of them then tell them to become Independent and then you will believe them.

Only when Reps and Dems currently in office dump their party and become Indpendent will America begin to have any hope whatsoever or defending itself.

This is war BTW. No shooting war has EVER had more at stake than we have at stake now. The US parties are the enemy. yes, enemy. (just look at their refusl to defend the borders, the most fundamental duty even when 75% citizens are demanding it)

Where I live the state finally stopped issuing licenses to illegals after the experiment turned into the disaster critics said it would. Problems included an increase in uninsured motorist accidents, an increase in hit-and-run accidents, an increase in check forgery associated with the new IDs.

As individual states crack down on illegals the illegals will be channelized to those states and cities that are illegal friendly. These jurisdictions are likely to be overwhelmed to the point that their taxpayers demand change.

This is going to give CO, next door, a lot of problems.

Denver is a strong sanctuary city, the Governor a liberal, and the legislature strong left.

There is NO leader who wants to do anything but coddle illegals.

We need to prepare for a flood here in CO.

The American globalists and free traders are sadden by all this. Their vision of a world where services, goods, raw materials and LABORERS can flow in and out of our country is derailed.

This is precisely what the Bush admin and his pro-amnesty buds on both sides of the aisle have been fearing. ...and why they’ve pushed so hard to legalize the uncounted millions. They knew the states would start taking matters into their own hands.

One idea which would help is, when an illegal is involved in a virulent accident in one state, to be able to bring suit against the out of state jurisdiction which issued the driving or auto license.

Interesting article. I’m sure it will interest one of Free Republic’s most vocal supporters of illegal immigration, DCPatriot.

DCPatriot says that the vast majority of FReepers oppose such efforts to purge the US of illegal aliens.

Perhaps its time they stood up and were counted.
