California is a great state. Its too bad the vocal minority makes such a fuss. What with the Fags in ‘Frisco, and the champagne socialists and Eunuchs in Sacramento, and half of Mexico in San Diego and LA, California is getting screwed.
Mexico is so pathetic — and it’s not the people coming here illegally I abhor — it’s the Mexican govt. and people HERE who invite this mass illegal immigration.
I’ve been in L.A. my whole life and have seen all the changes — most of them not good. But go down to Mexico and you realize why Mexicans have come up here — a better life and all that entails, plus the chance to send money home to relatives in the wretched Mexico.
In Mexico itself, the Mexican people are very nice; visits to such Baja sites as Ensenada, while distressing due to poverty, et al, reveal a very polite group of residents. Crossing streets in Ensenada, you will ALWAYS be given the right of way by drivers — shopkeepers are extremely helpful and pleasant, etc. They were all devastated last year with that swine flu scare and lack of tourism. Crime in Mexico has further hurt them terribly.
OUR government needs to do so much to put a stop to this illegal immigration scourage — seek out and punish those who want to hire illegals to do jobs here for tiny salaries and no benefits (and then illegals overload the ERs, putting them out of business), make sure to shore up the borders as should’ve been done decades ago, and just make it unappealing to come here.
With the current economic crisis, CA has seen a drop in illegals — some are going home as there has been no work for them. Hooray! It’s a drop in the bucket, of course, but it’s noticeable.
All of this has been a long time coming — good for Gov. Brewer of AZ for signing the ‘law’ - now it remains to be seen how everyone really will react in response.
