The moto for the New California Media (dba Pacific News Service) is "Connecting the New Majorities"

Any surprises here?

One big difference is that the Berlin Wall was to keep the people in not out.

Also there is no wall along the US-Mexico border. The desert isn't a wall and an irrigation canal isn't a wall. The corpse in an irrigation canal has nothing to do with the border either because the border isn't defined by irrigation canals ---they just happen to be on both sides of the border for other reasons.

And didn't the Berlin Wall divide a single country? The US and Mexico are not a single country - bad analogy.

Yep. Sounds more like the Great Wall of China. Keep out the invading hoards.

Ping.

Let me see if I can respond with the words I think another lady might say, if she could speak:

I know I am beautifull and highly desirable.I epitomise all that is good in humanity.Many want to possess me.I am only one, and I have certain standards and needs of my own.It is universally known I have no real need to associate with strangers, but I am always wellcoming to like minded companions.

I allow a controlled number of suitors to apply for an audience with me. Most come in the hope of gaining my esteem and a place in my heart and my home.I embrace these, and few are refused admittance.

Some come to conquer me, to make me subserviant, as if I would change my nature upon their command.They come to destroy me.

Some come because they falsely believe they will be able to use my innate longing for like minded companions to rape and to steal from me,and my true companions, with impunity.They have no true conception of who we are,they do not wish to join us, they wish to use us, and they selfishly and ignorantly attempt to destroy us by their very presence.

I refuse to be robbed and raped by unwelcome guests and unlawfull invaders!

Signed, Statue of Liberty, sinking in the harbor.

YES...

If they had broken into my house and were busily going through my property looking for something to steal.

In a New York minute!

And, interestingly enough, I've had legals who hire and condone illegals tell me we should take action to stop mexico from teaching it's children that half of the USA is mexican territory that was stolen from them and must be returned.

Weird Huh?

"American capital has long had a voracious appetite for highly exploitable labor, thus attracting "illegal" immigrants, whose presence is widely accepted at the highest levels of society. Moreover, Washington has aggressively pushed the liberalization of foreign economies such as Mexico's, a process that has predictably intensified migratory pressures among those displaced in the name of economic efficiency."

In this curious paragraph, it would seem the author is asserting that capitalism is what is attracting these immigrants to the USA. At the same time, he contends that it is the introduction of capitalism in foreign countries that is driving them here.

So, according to this line of reasoning, the only thing that will save the USA (and the rest of the world) is the immediate adoption of socialism.

This being Pacific News Service, I'm certain that is exactly what he meant to say...

****pulled up her shirt, pulled the pin on a grenade and killed herself and four GIs****

Then you, sir, scare the hell out of me.

The children walking across the border do NOT have grenades strapped to their bodies. I don't care if they should NOT be walking across the border. You do NOT kill unarmed children, ever. At least not in MY country.

I think I could figure out a way to stop and 11 year old from going thru my property WITHOUT shooting them.

But.....that was NOT the topic. The topic was shooting an unarmed ll or 12 year old in cold blood because they are crossing our border. And the question was: would YOU?

If the government,
all consuming since Lincoln and FDR,
is not willing to defend our borders;
the populace must eventually do so...
or submit to slavery.

Would I do it?

See post 56, 1968 - 69.

With all respect for Doughty One;
compassion has not worked.

This new global economy sees no problem at all shifting jobs out from under any group at a moment's notice. This sure isn't the economic model I'd like to base my future on. House payments? What house payments?

Simply put a bounty on the illegals. Pay individuals for delivery of illegals to the INS.

Wasn't the Berlin Wall built to keep people in?

BINGO!

I believe this is the agenda of those who call themselves International Socialists. They reason that until the entire world is socialist the concept will not work. The previous failures in implementing socialism are due to localize inefficiencies. If you implement on a global scale then you finally have a plan for success!! It is clear that they have taken Star Trek too seriously and believe Capt. Pickard is a real "caring" leader of the Federation.

It is extremely sad but these intelligent and well meaning folks really believe this International Socialism crap. This is basically due to liberal university training in the US, Canada and Europe.

If I was an Islamist I'd be really happy to have these guys running interference for you.

How many Americans have been raped, robbed, and murdered by illegal immigrants or their direct descendents in recent years? Why is that figure unknown? If we are discussing the deadliness of the immigration situation why not discuss the whole picture?
