I am against illegal immigration. I always have been. What I would like to see is intelligent discussion of how to solve the problem without name-calling and vitriol. I am quite tired of reading how Mexicans have destroyed communities, crime rates, etc. The question on the table is how to control illegal immigration and at the same time allow legal immigrants into the country.
I think by now we all realize illegal immigration is not a good thing. It is not necessary to post hundreds of threads pointing this out.
When you want to discuss things in a civil manner, I will be happy to oblige. However, when you deliberately post an article on my home town and flag me to it with mocking comments, you should expect that I am not going to be polite. This is the second time you have done this.
I would point out to you that I do not search out negative articles on California to post and flag you to those articles to make fun of you.
Therefore, I would appreciate it if you could see your way to quit doing this.
Oh, and it would be really nice if you had a constructive thread once in a while.
Me too Missy.
Oh, your right. Everyone stop it NOW!
Oh, and if your interested, please note that the overall majority of threads regarding this titanic invasion of our borders, are not posted by me. I do respond to many of them though, as I believe that this open border lunacy is not only a complete national disgrace, but a huge national security threat.
Sorry the news coming out of your home town is upsetting.
I will in the future isolate you from it, by not pinging you.
It would probably be better for you to ignore it.
Almost needless to say the ACLU made sure that didn't happen again - can't have carols in public you know! I think one of my old buddies, a real leftwing nutcase lawyer named Pincus, was among the first to jump on that. I can assure you his real motive was to shut down the use of the German language in public, not the Christmas carols - they were just an excuse for him to hit the targets he preferred. Mercifully for the rest of us he is now dieing of some kind of horrendous cancer that keeps him out of public these days.
But back to the Mexicans peddling meth, this has been going on since the only Mexicans in the state lived in Gary-Hammond-East Chicago, presumably in the same neighborhoods as the Puerto Ricans, most of whom were Baptists and pentecostals. They weren't working Naptown, so who was?
Well, there were four fellows on the Eastside that I knew from way back. Reports on their activities to the Indianapolis police, or to the Sheriff's office resulted in NADA NADA NADA ("nothing" = "nada"). It wasn't until reports, with photos, were made directly to DEA folks in Washington DC that anything happened.
Jackson County presently has a similar situation where the local cops are soft on meth dealers, or are possibly in league with them. There are other places where this is true.
It's entirely possible that as long as various municipal and county police organizations in Indiana persist in turning a blind eye to the meth dealers this is going to continue into the indefinite future.
