With a deadline less than a week away, immigrant community leaders say they're worried that visitors from Afghanistan, Lebanon and 11 other countries may not register as part of a new national security program because they fear they'll be detained or deported.

[Cultural Jihad]

National civil rights and immigrant-advocacy groups call the program an ineffective security measure, ...

Any organization which opposes America's efforts at national self-defense should be looked at very closely.

Border Cam Bump!

Enforce the laws with vigor. If they don't like they can go back to their hellholes.

Lawd, we don't want to be guilty of making people that may be here illegally nervous now do we?

[RnMomof7]

WOW..I did not know that

Lawd, we don't want to be guilty of making people that may be here illegally nervous now do we?

Now Now they have watched the Mexicans move around America undisturbed for years..so why should they not EXPECT the same treatment?

[Jhoffa_]

The Immigration and Naturalization Service took hundreds of men from five Middle Eastern countries into custody after the first registration deadline last month, primarily for overstaying their visas or registering late, infractions that rarely resulted in detention until Sept. 11, 2001.

Thank you for posting this.

There was some cornflake on here last night named "Hasan" screaming about his brother being detained and blamed it on us paranoid "yankees" (his first post since registering, btw.)

Asked what happened to out decency and human right's, blah, blah.. I guess America should be the worlds door mat so people like Hasan and his (probably non-existant) "brother" will like us.

Good Question !!!!!

If we're having so much trouble deporting some who "have
only entered illegally", why can't they also be charged with failure to reg. with SS ??

Which (if any) of US agencies is checking to make sure
illegals are obeying this US Federal Law ??

[madfly]

Yes, and one would think this law would be a higher priority during times of war. My brothers were draft age in the 60's and so were friends. What's up today? Are college students being registered? Are there any TV ads reminding draft age males to be sure to sign up under penalty of law? Where am I?

Do any freeper vets have any input on this?
