Corruption of democracy in No Carolina

O'Keefe's Project Veritas exposes voter fraud and corruption of the democratic process in North Carolina:

Limiting Muslim Immigration Simply Makes Sense

"We do NOT Advocate Ending Muslim Immigration"  <---ACT! quote



Because The Left has joined forces with The Muslim Brotherhood, our "progressive" media does not normally inform the public of the problems caused by Islamization. Therefore, the job of educating the public to the threat of radical Islam has been left to patriotic grassroots organizations and citizen journalists like the late Andrew Breitbart...

In order to Reclaim America, we must reclaim our schools

If every school principal gave this speech at the beginning of the next school year, America would be a much better place.


"To the students and faculty of our high school:

I am your new principal, and honored to be so. There is no greater calling than to teach young people.

I would like to apprise you of some important changes coming to our school. I am making these changes because I am convinced that most of the ideas that have dominated public education in America have worked against you, against your teachers and against our country.

First, this school will no longer honor race or ethnicity. I could not care less if your racial makeup is black, brown, red, yellow or white. I could not care less if your origins are African, Latin American, Asian or European, or if your ancestors arrived here on the Mayflower or on slave ships.

The only identity I care about, the only one this school will recognize, is your individual identity -- your character, your scholarship, your humanity. And the only national identity this school will care about is American. This is an American public school, and American public schools were created to make better Americans.

If you wish to affirm an ethnic, racial or religious identity through school, you will have to go elsewhere. We will end all ethnicity-, race- and non-American nationality-based celebrations. They undermine the motto of America, one of its three central values -- e pluribus unum, "from many, one." And this school will be guided by America's values.

This includes all after-school clubs. I will not authorize clubs that divide students based on any identities. This includes race, language, religion, sexual orientation or whatever else may become in vogue in a society divided by political correctness.

Your clubs will be based on interests and passions, not blood, ethnic, racial or other physically defined ties. Those clubs just cultivate narcissism -- an unhealthy preoccupation with the self -- while the purpose of education is to get you to think beyond yourself. So we will have clubs that transport you to the wonders and glories of art, music, astronomy, languages you do not already speak, carpentry and more. If the only extracurricular activities you can imagine being interesting in are those based on ethnic, racial or sexual identity, that means that little outside of yourself really interests you.

Second, I am uninterested in whether English is your native language. My only interest in terms of language is that you leave this school speaking and writing English as fluently as possible. The English language has united America's citizens for over 200 years, and it will unite us at this school. It is one of the indispensable reasons this country of immigrants has always come to be one country. And if you leave this school without excellent English language skills, I would be remiss in my duty to ensure that you will be prepared to successfully compete in the American job market. We will learn other languages here -- it is deplorable that most Americans only speak English -- but if you want classes taught in your native language rather than in English, this is not your school.

Third, because I regard learning as a sacred endeavor, everything in this school will reflect learning's elevated status. This means, among other things, that you and your teachers will dress accordingly. Many people in our society dress more formally for Hollywood events than for church or school. These people have their priorities backward. Therefore, there will be a formal dress code at this school.

Fourth, no obscene language will be tolerated anywhere on this school's property -- whether in class, in the hallways or at athletic events. If you can't speak without using the f-word, you can't speak. By obscene language I mean the words banned by the Federal Communications Commission, plus epithets such as "Nigger," even when used by one black student to address another black, or "bitch," even when addressed by a girl to a girlfriend. It is my intent that by the time you leave this school, you will be among the few your age to instinctively distinguish between the elevated and the degraded, the holy and the obscene.

Fifth, we will end all self-esteem programs. In this school, self-esteem will be attained in only one way -- the way people attained it until decided otherwise a generation ago -- by earning it. One immediate consequence is that there will be one valedictorian, not eight.

Sixth, and last, I am reorienting the school toward academics and away from politics and propaganda. No more time will devoted to scaring you about smoking and caffeine, or terrifying you about sexual harassment or global warming. No more semesters will be devoted to condom wearing and teaching you to regard sexual relations as only or primarily a health issue. There will be no more attempts to convince you that you are a victim because you are not white, or not male, or not heterosexual or not Christian. We will have failed if any one of you graduates this school and does not consider him or herself inordinately lucky -- to be alive and to be an American.

Now, please stand and join me in the Pledge of Allegiance to the flag of our country. As many of you do not know the words, your teachers will hand them out to you."

A Guide to Destroying America through the Democratic Process

1. Oppose any legislation that would require voters to provide proof of identification at polling places. Claim that it would discriminate against the "disenfrachised": minorities, immigrants, students, women, the poor, and the elderly.

2. Give speeches decrying "low voter turnout" at elections, and introduce methods to facilitate greater "civic involvement" in the "democratic process." Institute mail-in ballots, motor-voter laws, publicly-funded voter registration drives---and Universal Voter Registration.

3. Perpetually promote ethnic-based "identity"---and "cultural retentionism"---rather than cultural assimilation. Claim that "diversity" and multiculturalism are desireable goals for a society. Employ the word "community" to describe everyone that shares a common ethnic ancestry. Then claim that the entire "community" is being "oppressed" by the "white majority"---because of their ethnicity; this will create a greater sense of "shared vicimization"---and "ethnic solidarity"---that can be more easily manipulated by a politician.

4. Deceptively use the term "immigrant"---without any differentiation---to refer to every non-citizen that is living in America. In similar fashion, use the blanket term "residents" to refer to everyone living in the area---regardless of their immigration or citizenship status---when speaking about local political issues.

5. Give speeches about why "immigrants" (see #3) should be granted the right to vote in "local" elections---such as school board and municipal elections. Create a sense of "legitimacy" for the proposal by giving historical---and current---examples of individual States and municipalities that have granted voting rights to "immigrants" in local elections.

6. Create a nebulous concept of "immigrant (see #3) rights." Promote the idea in conjunction with the term "human rights": people will begin to believe that "illegal immigration" to America is a "human right" that subordinates immigration laws. In order to gain political support from marxists---and labor unions---promote "immigrant rights" as a struggle for universal "worker rights."

7. Promote the idea that a blanket amnesty should be granted to long-time, "hard-working", illegal "immigrants" who have "built their lives here"---and who were simply acting on a fundamental "human right" to migrate to a "better" place to raise their families. Sprinkle your speeches with phrases like "America is a nation of immigrants", "they're only doing the jobs Americans won't do", "we have a moral obligation", and the phrase "family unity."

8. Repeat Step #5---in concert with Step #2---until formerly-illegal "immigrants" are routinely voting in all local elections in every State. Oppose any political movement seeking to have the Supreme Court correct the long-misinterpreted "14th Amendment" right of "anchor-baby" citizenship.

9. Repeat Steps 6 through 8 "as necessary" until un-assimilated, "foreign-born" voters and their children outnumber multi-generational-American voters.

10. Elect "progressive" candidates that continue to promote multiculturalism, redistribution of wealth, open-border policies, and global socialism.

Why America should abolish Don't-Ask-Don't-Tell Policy

In this particular case, the abhorrent policy I am referring to is the "don't-ask-don't-tell" policy---of "sanctuary" cities---that prevents local law enforcement officers, and other public agencies, from asking anyone about their immigration status, and discourages them from telling federal authorities whenever they have contact with an illegal alien.

Over several decades, this unAmerican public policy---which was mandated in several metropolitan cities---has resulted in a destructive cultural corruption of the entire democratic process in America.

So why would the elected governments of several large American cities---as well as some States---have enacted official public policy that completely disrespects America's immigration laws?

It would be understandable if America's immigration laws were misguided, racist, immoral, unConstitutional, or "unjust", but they are not. America enacted her immigration laws for very rational, moral, and worthwhile reasons: To promote and preserve the American dream---for all Americans---through controlled assimilation of new legal immigrants.

So why did the local governments of some large cities (and States like Massachusetts) institute official policies that forbid public agency employees---and even private employers---from exercising their patriotic civic duty?



The reason---given by locally-elected politicians---is that local government is not "responsible" for enforcing federal laws, and that local taxpayers could not afford the extra manpower or resources required to enforce such laws.

But in reality, liberal politicians don't want anyone enforcing America's immigration laws in their cities, because they have too much to lose by the removal of their city's illegal alien population: They receive federal funds based purely on population head count, and they want to continue growing a grateful voter base that will keep them in political power.

The public outpouring of their compassion for the "hard-working", undocumented "immigrant" is self-serving and calculated.

Sanctuary policies create a permanent magnet for illegal aliens and their anchor-baby "citizen" offspring. As those anchor-babies reach voting age, they will naturally vote for those politicians that will work to prevent their "undocumented" family-members from being arrested and deported. Eventually, the "citizen" relatives of illegal aliens begin to outnumber the voters in that city---who have never had an illegal alien relative---and the elections get hijacked by a subculture based upon crime and "ethnic solidarity."

Impatient "progressives" are calling for voting "rights" for "non-citizen" in local elections: (from San Francisco Wants to Let Non-Citizens Vote)

The [San Francisco] Board of Supervisors want to put a ballot measure on the November ballot that would let "non-citizens" who have children in SF schools vote in elections for the Board of Education in the city. [...] Shockingly, 1 out of every 3 students in San Francisco have parents who are not citizens.

(and from ImmigrantVoting.org

"...Seven cities in Maryland and Massachusetts have passed laws allowing immigrants to vote in all local elections. New York City and Chicago have allowed immigrants to vote in local school board elections. Major U.S. jurisdictions, including Los Angeles, New York City, and Washington D.C., are currently considering proposals that would allow immigrants to participate in all local elections..."

The problem is that these "progressives" never seem to mention whether they are only talking about LEGAL immigrants. However, as long as liberal journalists don't ask them, they probably won't tell.

The Environmental Impact in the Arizona Desert

from an email I received and then confirmed through snopes:

"You won't see these pictures on CNN, ABC, NBC or the Arizona Republic Repugnant newspaper. Nor will they mention the disease that comes from the uncovered human waste left in our desert.

The trash left behind by people illegally crossing our border is another Environmental Disaster to hit the USA. This information needs to be seen by the rest of the country.

If these actions had been done in one of our Northwest Forests or Seashore National Parks areas, there would be an uprising of the American people---but this is "just" the Arizona-Mexican border.

We, in Arizona, know you're boycotting us -- but you really should come out here and see our Beautiful Sonoran Desert. It's just gorgeous right now! We know you'd love it, and maybe you can share what you saw with the rest of the country---so they can love it too!



This is on an 'illegal super - highway' from Mexico to the USA (via Tucson) used by human smugglers. This area is located in a wash, approximately 1.5 miles long, just south of Tucson, Arizona. If a flood came, all this would be washed to the river and then onto the sea!



It is estimated over 5,000 discarded backpacks are in this wash. Countless water containers, food wrappers, clothing, feces, including thousands of soiled baby diapers. And as you can see in this picture, fresh footprints leading right into it.



As we kept walking down the wash, we thought for sure it was going to end, but around every corner was more and more trash!



And of course, the trail leading out of the wash into our city:



They've already come through there. Isn't Arizona just beautiful, America?
Our Sonoran desert has basically been turned into a landfill. Why would you boycott us???"




FINISH THE FRICKIN' FENCE, and DEFEND our borders, WASHINGTON!

A Factual Look at "Occupied Aztlan"

Let's take a factual look at the outlandish beliefs propagated by Aztlan groups like MEChA and the Brown Berets (and even college professors!)

Although it is a clever turn of a phrase, the popular motto, "We didn't cross the horder, the border crossed us", has no valid meaning unless "you" are over 150 years old.

Despite his marxist-inspired gobbledygook, the lands encompassing the states of Texas, California, Arizona, New Mexico, Utah, and Colorado haven't been a part of Mexico since 1854.

Following the Mexican-American War---which America won in 1848---the United States of America graciously PAID the government of Mexico for all of that land. America then established it's current sovereign southern border in 1854 through The Gadsden Purchase.

Per the Treaty of Guadalupe-Hidalgo and the Treaty of Mesilla---and the payment of millions of dollars to the Mexican government---all the lands and resources in those purchased territories were no longer under the governance of Mexico, and became part of the sovereign United States of America.

In America, sovereignty means that the citizens of America---through their duly elected government---determine the "laws of the land" within their national borders; including those laws that determine which foreign-born individuals may enter and/or legally remain within those borders. They're called our immigration laws.

none of these people look over 100 years old---let alone 150!

The fact that "you" may have had distant ancestors that once migrated through a foreign country does not give you any legitimate claim upon "the land" in a foreign country; nor does it mean that you have a "human right" to simply enter or live in that foreign country if you want---unless that is the law of that land. In America, however, THAT is not the law of the land; nor should it be. National borders are not simply arbitrary lines on a geographical map.

Everyone's ancestors were conquered and/or oppressed by someone at some time: that's simply the history of conquest and nation-building throughout the world. That doesn't mean that anyone owes you anything now. The Aztec empire---which was later conquered by Spain---had also been created through conquest, oppression, and enslavement of other indigenous tribes.

Unless it can be documented that America has been directly responsible for the abject poverty and government corruption in Mexico---since 1929---then Mexican citizens should be addressing those problems from within their own borders. America already gives billions of taxpayer dollars in humanitarian and foreign aid to the Mexican government every year.

Foreigners who come to America as legal immigrants---and assimiliate themselves into the American culture within one or two generations---become "successful" Americans. But if you intentionally embrace a word like "Latino" or "Chicano" or "mexican-american" to describe who you are, then you really haven't assimilated yet: You are still identifying yourself as being something "different"---and "apart"---from other Americans.

If you want the same respect and acceptance that any law-abiding, patriotic "American" gets, you should abandon your divisive sense of "foreign identity" and "ethnic-solidarity", and simply become an assimilated "American" like the rest of us.

If you do NOT want to adopt and embrace our traditional American cultural values as your own, then you probably shouldn't "immigrate" here to begin with.

Ethnic Studies: Teaching Hate and Treason?

Freedom of speech is one of the hallmarks of a free society. However, one of the consequences of having freedom of speech is that morons, racists, anarchists, marxist-socialists, and religious loonies also get to speak their minds in the public arena.

One of the consequences of America's misguided "tolerance" for ethno-centrism---and affirmative action---is that some radical ideologues even manage to get themselves hired as university professors; and are all too often even given tenure.

["professor" Ward Churchill]

So, despite how radical and seditious their rantings become, they are still able to keep their bully-pulpits because they've been granted "academic immunity."

Who knows how many impressionable young people have been infected by radical, unAmerican ideologies, because students assumed their professors were the "authoritive experts" in their field; simply because their teachers had been hired by a university---and had perhaps written a book.

It would be one thing if these arrogant "intellectuals" were able to give lectures, and grade class assignments, without imposing their own biased viewpoint upon the material, but that is rarely the case for "Ethnic Studies." In fact, it's usually at the core of the curriculum.

"The border remains a military zone. We remain a hunted people. Now you think you have a destiny to fulfill in the land that historically has been ours for forty thousand years. And we're a new Mestizo nation. And they want us to discuss civil rights. Civil rights ... law made by white men to oppress all of us of color, female and male. This is our homeland. We cannot -- we will not -- and we must not be made illegal in our own homeland. We are not immigrants that came from another country to another country. We are migrants, free to travel the length and breadth of the Americas because we belong here. We are millions. We just have to survive. We have an aging white America. They are not making babies. They are dying. It’s a matter of time. The explosion is in our population." -Professor Jose Angel Gutierrez

And then there's good old Ward Churchill (whose own chickens finally came home to roost):

“As for those in the World Trade Center ... Well, really, let's get a grip here, shall we? True enough, they were civilians of a sort. But innocent? Gimme a break. They formed a technocratic corps at the very heart of America's global financial empire -- the ‘mighty engine of profit’ to which the military dimension of U.S. policy has always been enslaved -- and they did so both willingly and knowingly… If there was a better, more effective, or in fact any other way of visiting some penalty befitting their participation upon the little Eichmanns inhabiting the sterile sanctuary of the twin towers, I'd really be interested in hearing about it.” -Ward Churchill

["Churchill was made a Professor of Ethnic Studies in 1996, was promoted to full professor in 1997, and finally became Chair of the department in 2002 -- though he did not (and still does not) possess a Ph.D."

The Denver Post has also reported that in the late 1960s Churchill became involved with the Students for a Democratic Society and its sister organization, the Weather Underground. The Post, quoting Churchill, stated that he briefly taught Weather Underground members how to make bombs and to fire weapons -- “Which end does the bullet go, what are the ingredients, how do you time the damned thing.”]

And then there's Professor emeritus of Chicano studies at California State University, Rodolfo Acuna:

[Exhorting his students "to critically think about identity," Acuna urges them to reject terms like "Latino" because "it is a term that has been imposed upon us." Such themes are central to Acuna's course, "History of the Chicano/a," and trace their origins to Acuna's very first book, Occupied America: A History of Chicanos. Now the most widely assigned text in Chicano Studies programs across the United States, this tome includes such chapter titles as: "Legacy of Hate: The Conquest of Mexico's Northwest"; "Remember the Alamo: The Colonization of Texas"; "Freedom in a Cage: The Colonization of New Mexico"; "Sonora Invaded: The Occupation of Arizona"; and "California Lost: America for Anglo Americans."]

And there's Chicano Studies professor, Dr. Charles Truxillo - at the University of New Mexico:

Professor Predicts 'Hispanic Homeland'

Along both sides of the U.S.-Mexico border “there is a growing fusion, a reviving of connections,” Truxillo said. “Southwest Chicanos and Norteño Mexicanos are becoming one people again.”

Truxillo, 47, has said the new country should be brought into being “by any means necessary,” but recently said it was unlikely to be formed by civil war. Instead, its creation will be accomplished by the electoral pressure of the future majority Hispanic population in the region, he said.

Truxillo, who teaches at UNM's Chicano Studies Program on a yearly contract, believes it's his job to help develop a “cadre of intellectuals” to think about how it can become a reality.

In addition to "Ethnic Studies", the continuing practice of "academic tenure" in America has resulted in producing college students who have been taught to be unpatriotic, and conditioned to think "critically" of the founding principles and traditional values that made America the greatest nation in the world.

Arizona takes another step in reclaiming America for Americans

Thank heavens Gov. Jan Brewer and the State of Arizona are doing something about the disease of "progressive" education and racial-identity politics:

Arizona bill targeting ethnic studies signed into law
By Nicole Santa Cruz, Los Angeles Times - May 12, 2010
(excerpts below---with some pertinent links added)

"HB 2281 bans schools from teaching classes that are designed for students of a particular ethnic group, promote resentment or advocate ethnic solidarity over treating pupils as individuals. The bill also bans classes that promote the overthrow of the U.S. government."

"Tucson Unified School District officials say the Chicano studies classes benefit students and promote critical thinking. "We don't teach all those ugly things they think we're teaching," said Judy Burns, the president of the district's governing board."

"She has no intention of ending the program, which offers courses from elementary school through high school in topics such as literature, history and social justice, with an emphasis on Latino authors and history. About 3% of the district's 55,000 students are enrolled in such classes."

"[Arizona Superintendent of Public Instruction] Tom Horne has been trying to end the program for years, saying it divides students by race and promotes resentment. He singled out one history book used in some classes, "Occupied America: A History of Chicanos," by Rodolfo Acuna, a professor and founder of the Chicano studies program at Cal State Northridge."

"To begin with, the title of the book implies to the kids that they live in occupied America, or occupied Mexico," Horne said last week in a telephone interview.

Also last week, Augustine Romero, director of student equity in the Tucson school district, said it now had become politically acceptable to attack Latinos in Arizona."

I don't quite see how this law constitutes an "attack" on "Latinos", Gus. It's an "attack" on certain taxpayer-funded public school programs that promote ethnic divisiveness and unpatriotic sentiment.

Arizona Bans Ethnic Studies in Public Schools
Dana Chivvis Contributor
(excerpts below---with a pertinent link added)

"The law, which takes effect Dec. 31, bans classes that are designed for [any] particular ethnic group, promote overthrow of the U.S. government, foster resentment toward a particular race or class, or "advocate ethnic solidarity instead of the treatment of pupils as individuals." "

"Arizona Superintendent of Public Instruction Tom Horne said the bill was written to target a Mexican-American studies program in the Tucson school system, according to the Los Angeles Times. The 14-year-old program offers courses in standard topics like literature and history, but with an emphasis on Latino authors or history. It also has specialized courses with African-American and Native American emphasis."

"Approximately 2 percent of the Tucson Unified School District's 55,000 students are enrolled in the program."

Arizona gov. signs bill targeting ethnic studies
By JONATHAN J. COOPER (AP)
(excerpts below---with some pertinent links added)

"State schools chief Tom Horne, who has pushed the bill for years, said he believes the Tucson school district's Mexican-American studies program teaches Latino students that they are oppressed by white people."

"Public schools should not be encouraging students to resent a particular race, he said."

" "It's just like the old South, and it's long past time that we prohibited it," Horne said."

"The measure signed Tuesday prohibits classes that advocate ethnic solidarity, that are designed primarily for students of a particular race or that promote resentment toward a certain ethnic group."

"Horne, a Republican running for attorney general, said the [Mexican-American Studies] program promotes "ethnic chauvinism" and racial resentment toward whites while segregating students by race. He's been trying to restrict it ever since he learned that Hispanic civil rights activist Dolores Huerta told students in 2006 that "Republicans hate Latinos." "

"Six UN human rights experts released a statement earlier Tuesday saying all people have the right to learn about their own cultural and linguistic heritage, they said."

"Brewer spokesman Paul Senseman didn't directly address the UN criticism, but said Brewer supports the bill's goal.

"The governor believes ... public school students should be taught to treat and value each other as individuals and not be taught to resent or hate other races or classes of people," Senseman said."

Despite the UN's "human rights" experts weighing-in on American public school policy, this law does not prevent or restrict ANYONE from "learning" about any ethnic culture or linguistic history that they want to; that's what public libraries and the internet are for. However, taxpayers should not have to fund educational programs that promote the divisiveness of "ethnic solidarity", or race-based resentment against other American citizens. Imagine the outcry if there were a tax-funded "White Supremacy Studies" program being taught in public schools.

The Attacks Against Arizona are an Attack on America

Despite what is being said publicly, the recent nationwide protests and violent demonstrations against "AZ's racist legislation" are not REALLY about Arizona's "new" law (a state law that basically just reflects Federal immigration law, and allows and directs local law agencies to arrest illegal aliens). In reality, these protests and demonstrations are an assault against America's immigration laws.



The protests are a condemnation of the fact that the United States of America is a sovereign nation that has the legitimate right to defend its recognized borders and lawfully determine who may enter the country---and who must leave once they've entered. Such laws are nothing "new" or unique to America; all sovereign nations have immigration laws.

Just because someone from another country WANTS to enter America---or wants to live here---does not mean they have a "fundamental right" to do so. If they enter America's borders without government permission, or if they overstay their temporary permission, they are not "immigrants"---they are foreign invaders.



Throughout history, all invaders entered a country to "make a better life for themselves and their families"---or to destroy the established culture of a country.

If a stranger wants to enter your home---or live on your property---does that mean that he or she has some "human right" to do that? Would you refer to someone who has broken into your house as simply an "undocumented" guest or an "undocumented" resident?

Yet, the liberal media, the neo-marxists, the reconquistadors, and liberal politicians trading on racial-identity politics, all love to use euphemisms like "migrants" and "immigrants" and "undocumenteds" to describe those foreigners who have invaded our borders or have over-stayed their temporary permission to live here. By using such euphemisms, open-borders "progressives" blur the actual issues, and then demonize anyone who wants America's borders defended---and our immigration laws enforced---as being anti-"immigrant." Then, it's just a small step to calling them "racists" and "xenophobes."

America is (or at least was) a nation of assimilated immigrants.

America was not intended to be a nation of unassimilated minority "communities" clinging to their ethnicity and trying to impose their cultural view upon the rest of American society. However, due to massive illegal immigration from Mexico and Central America we now have the sort of ethnic-based, La Raza "mentality" that is spurring-on these demonstrations against Arizona's enforcement of American immigration laws.



The demonstrations against Arizonans enforcing American immigration law---within their state---is actually a larger protest against America still enforcing immigration laws; which amounts to a protest against American sovereignty, itself.

Amnesty: Obama's Next Throat-Stuffer

some choice excerpts from:
Bryan Fischer-Focal Point
Next battle royale: immigration
Date: 4/26/2010

"[But]the president, who has never let piddly things like the will of the people, the rule of law, or common sense get in his way, is ready to force amnesty down the throats of Americans just like he did with health care reform. He's making it clear that, as far as he and the Democrat junta are concerned, this is no longer a government of the people but a government of leftist ideologues."

"The Amerophobic impulses of this president will soon be on display in all its florid ugliness. Expect ordinary Americans who believe in the rule of law and orderly immigration to be castigated as racists and bigots. We're all xenophobes now. Expect endless references to Jim Crow laws and the KKK. We must be demonized and dehumanized, just as Hitler did with the Jews, in an effort to intimidate us into silence and meek acquiescence."

"The one thing the president said with which we agree is, “Surely we can all agree that when 11 million people in our country are living here illegally, outside the system, that’s unacceptable. The American people demand and deserve a solution.”"
"The problem with the president's plan, of course, is that it is not a solution at all. You expect a "solution" to, well, solve something, but the president's plan to give amnesty to 20 million lawbreakers will only make things far, far worse."

"The solution is simple: a fence and attrition. Let's build a fence all along the southern border, and then deport every single illegal alien who comes to the attention of law enforcement or any government agency. Those that remain in the shadows will at least have the incentive to behave themselves and stop being a drain on taxpayer-funded social services."

Read all of his brilliant piece here!

"Racial Profiling"...or Effective Enforcement Consideration?

Why are the raucous protestors of the new AZ state law condemning it as a gateway to "racial profiling" and an infringement on "civil rights"?

I've read the entire legislation and found nothing in it that directs law enforcement and government agencies to apply the new AZ law against any particular race---or to exempt any particular race(s) from application of the law.

So why are opponents belligerently claiming that this new legislation "opens the door to racial profiling" in Arizona? If the law does not specify a particular "race" to enforce the law upon, why would "hispanic" Americans be concerned?

To anyone familar with the illegal immigration problem in America, the answer is obvious.

The opponents of this law, who cry "racial profiling" the loudest, rarely admit "why" race would be a logical consideration in the enforcement of the law. They only complain that "hispanic" people will now be "unfairly" singled-out and "harrassed" by law enforcement officers.

But if the law itself does not allow for discriminatory enforcement, why would "racial" profiling even be a concern for hispanic citizens?

The usually "unspoken" fact is that around 80% of all the illegal aliens in this country are "Hispanics"---from the countries of Mexico, Central America, and South America. That means that 4 out 5 illegal aliens in this country have certain ethnic, cultural---and "racial"---characteristics in common.

Due to Arizona's geographic proximity to Mexico, I surmise that the percentage of illegal aliens in their state who are "hispanic" is probably even greater than 80%, but that's purely speculation.

Does that then mean that 4 out of 5 hispanics in Arizona are illegal aliens? Of course, not. Many police officers and elected government officials are citizens of hispanic descent. However, there is other important demographic information about Arizona that should also be looked at.

It is estimated that there are about 460,000 illegal aliens living in Arizona. This would amount to about 7.5% of the state's total 2009 population (6,595,778). Additionally, according to the 2005-2007 American Community Survey conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau, "Hispanics and Latinos (of any race) make up 29.0% of Arizona's population."

I don't know if "hispanic" illegal aliens were included in the AZ count of "Hispanics and Latinos", but 29% of the total AZ population---6,595,778---equals 1,912,776 "hispanics." If illegal aliens were included in that "Hispanic and Latino" population count, then that would mean that 24% of the total Hispanic population in Arizona is living there illegally: 460,000/1,912,776 = 24%.

That's almost 1 in 4: Nearly one in four hispanics in AZ are living there illegally!

If hispanic illegal aliens were not included in that US Census Bureau demographic study, then "only" 19% of the "Hispanic and Latino" population in Arizona are there illegally: 460,000+1,912,776 = 2,372,776; 460,000/2,372,776 = 19%

That's "only" 1 in 5.

The vast, overwhelming majority of people in our country who are breaking Federal Immigration law---and therefore the new corresponding law in Arizona---are "hispanic." Are any of the demonstrators disputing that fact? Why isn't network news "asking" protestors about that fact? They are only reporting that "hispanics" in Arizona may "unfairly" fall under suspicion of being in the country illegally "now" ---simply because they are "hispanic."

It seems rather "reasonable" to me to have a certain level of suspicion about the legal status of at least 1 out of every 5 hispanic individuals in Arizona---since at least 19% of all hispanics in Arizona are there illegally.

But, all these noisy demonstrations against the pending AZ law are not REALLY about "racial profiling" or "imagined" violations of civil rights, anyway. They are actually a protest against the fact that America has the sovereign right to determine who can cross-over the recognized borders of our country, and who must leave once they've crossed over those borders. And the protestors don't like that fact.

When 80% of the individuals who are violating our immigration laws are indeed "hispanic"---and are therefore subject to deportation---it would appear that the loudest opponents to immigration "enforcement" in this country are the actual "racists" in this debate....spurred-on by the liberal politicians that promulgate racial-identity politics.

The Marriage of Marxism and Militant Mexican-Americanism

When American communists interview comrades in the struggle, they use a language all their own:

March for legalization and equality on May 1
Interview with Carlos Montes
Interview by Staff
April 11, 2010

Fight Back! interviewed Carlos Montes, a veteran of the Chicano liberation struggle and a leader of the immigrant rights movement.

Fight Back!: Why are the May Day protests so important this year?

Carlos Montes: This May Day is important because it will bring out hundreds of thousands of Mexican and Central American immigrants to say no to ICE repression and to demand equality. May Day will be a show of force. It will demonstrate the power of the Mexican/Latino working class and solidarity with our sisters and brothers in the home country. The May Day events will show that the millions of undocumented are clear in the demand for full legalization - for all - right now. We demand that immigration legislation be presented and passed this year.

The May 1 marches and rallies will send a clear message to the Department of Homeland Security that we condemn the continued deportations and demand an end to ICE raids, detentions and deportations.

So, let me get this straight: On May 1st, "hundreds of thousands" of illegal aliens and their supporters will be marching and protesting and demanding that "they" get "full legalization" rights, simply because---so far---they've managed to avoid detection, arrest, and deportation by law enforcement?!

Obama's Quiet War on Red States

http://www.americanthinker.com/2010/04/obamas_quiet_war_on_red_states.html

"For liberals, the success of red states like Texas and Utah is immaterial. Liberals view the inadequacy of welfare-statism, lighter business regulations, open shops, and lower taxes in red states as injustices -- injustices that need to be rectified through national government action."
[...]
"Some liberals actually concede that blue states are falling behind red states economically. But what these liberals offer are not confessions of big-government failure, but excuses for big government. "Excuse Liberals" argue that their states have large cities with many immigrants, minorities, and poor. Their citizens expect and demand more government services. Public schools come with hefty price tags, and every child deserves quality public education. Big government, whatever its drawbacks, is flat-out necessary."

Instead of "progressive" Democrats looking to other Western developed nations for solutions to social and economic problems, all they have to do is look at the reasons why Red States fare better than Blue States.

There is NO NEED for another Amnesty, but we DO need Comprehensive Enforcement reform

Despite any of the claims made by Bush, Obama, Napolitano, Pelosi, business organizations, or "open-borders" coalitions, there is no legitimate need for America to continue to allow millions of illegal aliens to remain in our country. America has no moral obligation to do so, it's not in the best interest of American citizens and legal immigrants, and it makes no real economic sense to do so.

Instead of proposing yet another amnesty to these foreign invaders (by way of a "pathway to citizenship"), our government should be focusing on ways to ID, arrest, and deport them as quickly as possible.

If America is to prosper in the dark years ahead, our country must quickly adopt a hard-line approach against all illegal immigrants:

American Cities that Foster a Culture of Poverty, Fraud and Violent Crime

Now that local law enforcement has the tools it needs to ID and arrest illegal aliens, Washington needs to use Congressional clout to abolish self-proclaimed Sanctuary Cities once and for all.

Although the label of sanctuary city sounds quite noble, the actions of these municipalities is anything but noble. By enacting official policies and municipal ordinances that provide safe haven for illegal aliens, these cities thumb their noses at US Immigration Law, national security, and American values.

The existence of self-designated sanctuary cities has resulted in a growing sub-culture of poverty, fraud, and violent crime within our country (see: MS-13).

But why would these cities adopt such an anti-American policy to begin with?
