It's not like they are going to miss celebrating Christmas ...

[xm177e2]

You don't think any Arab Christians have been arrested?

[cmsgop]

Ooops! Got Allah ?

[optimistically_conservative]

If INS and DOJ can justify detaining 500-1,000 immigrants for criminal acts, so be it.

Honestly, I think Ashcroft's bulb is on the same circuit with Lott's.

Is he making it safer for me by handing government to the Democrats?

[Reaganwuzthebest]

They are being treated as criminals and that really goes against American ideals of fairness, and justice and democracy," Khan said.

Yup, life is hard, then you die. In the meantime, don't come into this country, break its laws, then complain we're not fair. Buh bye.

[dagnabbit]

... those arrested had violated immigration laws, overstayed their visas, or were wanted for crimes

Fine by me. Next issue please.

[kristinn]

INS spokesman Arcaute said those arrested had violated immigration laws, overstayed their visas, or were wanted for crimes.

We had to read halfway through this "news" story to learn why these people were being held. The propaganda is thick and heavy, but at least one sentence of truth was included here.

[MonroeDNA]

About time.

[Diana Rose]

To all those who think you are being screwed by the US

Tapping my finger to my chin...Now who messed up your play house?

Answer: The Terrorists.

Now go whine to the real people who ruined your good thing.

[sheik yerbouty]

Shi'ite happens!

[dagnabbit]

The arrests sparked a demonstration by hundreds of Iranians outside a Los Angeles immigration office. The protesters carried banners saying "What's next? Concentration camps?" and "What happened to liberty and justice?."

Freepers shouldn't let this cr@p go unanswered too long.
"Open Borders = 9-11"

[CARepubGal]

"Happy Holidaaays to you" I must say I feel a great sense of relief now. Hope the INS gets more jehadis soon and starts deporting the bastards.

[Shermy]

I don't see Saudi Arabia or Yemen on the list. Looks like our cold war "enemies."

[eastforker]

The time is near folks.Just rounding up a few who are not supposed to be here when the s$it hits the fan in the next week or so,and it is about time dammit!

[Rodney Dangerfield]

"Terrorists most likely wouldn't come to the INS to register. It is really a bad way to go about it. They are being treated as criminals and that really goes against American ideals of fairness, and justice and democracy," Khan said.
And neither will criminals when it comes to Gun Registration.

[lawdude]

""What happened to liberty and justice?." "

They left them in a pile when they became criminals.

[dalebert]

Maybe some of these guys can ask for liberty and justice in their own country. What good does it do them to come all the way over here and ask for it from us?

[Publius6961]

The head of the southern California chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union (news - web sites) compared the arrests to the internment of Japanese Americans in camps during the Second World War.

Hmmmmmmm.
I'm gonna have to research how many Japanese back then were here illegaly.
And how many of those arrested now are legal residents or citizens.
I have a feeling...

Does the ACLU have third graders as spokesmen now?

[tet68]

I'm going to say this again, after 100 thousand americans are sick and disabled, after 20 or 30 thousand americans are laying dead in the street from a Islamist bioattack, these same people will be clamoring to be PUT into protective camps.

It's coming, and anyone who can't or won't see it is going to be blindsided.

Buy lots of ammo today!
Spend time at the range!
Go over those Y2K left overs!

Consider what that will mean, say 30 thousand dead, 90 thousand infected in a city of say Atlanta's size.
Martial law certainly. Not all citizens are lawabiding, some
would see this as the oportunity of a life time, a chance to loot and wail. The hospitals would be swamped, the authorities would have no choice but mass burial or incineration to prevent the spread of disease.
Picture what England went through with mad cow only worse.

It won't be pretty folks.
Try and think ahead.

Remember, Al quida haven't stopped, hamas hasn't stopped, Hezbulla haven't stopped, they are only getting started.

[Publius6961]

Hundreds of what? !!
Immigrants?

Try criminals and illegal aliens.

[Republic of Texas]

" "What's next? Concentration camps?" "

Not a bad idea. We are just to weak to actually do it.
