Immigrants Aim To 'Close' US Cities on May 1st

Quote from gharghur2:

Why do you think it's called the melting pot of the world?

Because folks arrived here legally and they assimilated INTO the American culture. They did not demand that we speak their language nor did they just start asking for full health care without being able to pay for it.

Why do you think we have been so successful as a nation for centuries?

Because of several generations of hard working multiracial AMERICANS developing technology. Not because they were immigrants. Also, because of several government based, funded and promoted programs to encourage expansion. Not because of immigrants.

Because we closed our borders and isolated ourselves from the world?

Our borders are closed from the worlds poor because they can't just walk over here. Unlike Mexico which benefited because of a common border. You have to keep reality in your explanations. Several Haitians would argue with you about being welcome also. Many poor of many nations would prove worthy of being allowed to be here with your definitions. Are you prepared to cover their fiscal needs too?

We are a very strong nation BECAUSE of immigration.

No, we are a strong nation because of several verifiable factors, including legal immigration.

Mexicans in particular are very hard working, and mostly religious people.

This does not preclude the need to stand in line for immigration though. They still need to follow procedure. And if they feel that it's not moving fast enough for them, it does not give them a right to take matters into their personal hands without expecting major consequences for violations should they be caught.

They pay taxes and social security with no hope of ever getting anything back because they are using phoney ID's. Would you do the same?

Some of us already are. But that doesn't give them rights of Americans. American status should not be for sale. Adding a few dollars to the pool does not make you American.

And, if you want someone to blame for so many illegals try the US Department of Immigration, and the President for sitting on his hands. Like he does with everything he is leaving for the next administration.

I DO!!!!!!! And as a law abiding, tax paying, African American, I fully expect them to enforce the laws that they tell me that I need to find precious and obey. :)
 
The children should be recognized as Mexicans born in America and placed into a program that would give them instant citizenship to match the parents once the parents become Americans.

That way should they be deported or voluntarily return to Mexico, they will have no problems. They would still be a family of proud Mexicans. It really is that easy. :)

Quote from gharghur2:

Possibly so. But they will need to become legal aliens first. Citizenship they will probably never get. But their children born here are automatically american citizens with s/s # etc.
 
I just think some Mexicans should be able to stay here so they
can work in the burrito factories.

I do not want the price of burritos to go up...

Heck, this could play havoc with Taco Bell, Taco Time, ect...

They might go out of business. No Mexican food. No Azteca...

Now THAT would be a disaster to me. I need my enchilada's...:p
 
Real insensitive. Sometimes jokes in bad taste are just that. :)

I guess only mexicans are capable of making burritos.
It would be a sad commentary if americans were incapable of learning how to make
burritos

Oh, I see what you are saying. We do not even need ANY Mexicans to stay.

Okay, let's start shipping them south... Where they illegally came
from to invade our country.

May 1 immigrant boycott aims to "close" US cities

Apr 27, 8:22 PM (ET)

By Dan Whitcomb

LOS ANGELES (Reuters)

Such a massive turnout could make for the largest protests since the civil rights era of the 1960s, though not all Latinos were comfortable with such militancy, fearing a backlash in Middle America.

"There will be 2 to 3 million people hitting the streets in Los Angeles alone. We're going to close down Los Angeles, Chicago, New York, Tucson, Phoenix, Fresno," said Jorge Rodriguez, a union official who helped organize earlier rallies credited with rattling Congress as it weighs the issue.



Others, including President George W. Bush, want a guest-worker program and a path to citizenship. Most agree some reform is needed to stem the flow of poor to the world's biggest economy.

"We want full amnesty, full legalization for anybody who is here (illegally)," Rodriguez said. "That is the message that is going to be played out across the country on May 1."

Typical Reuters/media distortion;

How silly can you get??????????????????????????????????????????

Most Hispanics/Mexicans in this country, or out, are much better behaved than than Union official.

Partial disclosure , do business with Hispanics;

Quote from dandxg:

May sound silly, but I wonder if it will make the markets act strange? I guess it depends on the impact after the first couple of hours.

Is anyone else wondering how many illegal Mexicans IB employs to tap in those low cost trades.

Guess we'll soon find out.
 
Ok kids. I just read one of my favorite bloggers. He was part of the Reagan administration back in the day and he is provocative and definitely racist (so all minors leave the room --I don't want to you to get your panties soiled). As someone that was raised around way to much communism, I enjoy some of the 'modern racists' because they actually present more food for thought than the other side.

Anyhow, I like throwing gasoline on a fire. Let the flames begin.

"An anti-racist libertarian believes in magic.

Their mantra is that the world will be fine when there is “free movement of capital, goods, services, AND LABOR” in international trade.

In practical terms what this means is that when a Mexican crosses a magic line in the middle of the Rio Grande, his income miraculously increases ten-fold.

The official platform of the Libertarian Part says this tenfold increase in income is a free lunch. The only reason it happens is because that “labor” gets inside a magical line. If you keep them south of this magic line, you are stealing all that money from them.

No libertarian EVER asks WHY that Mexican gets ten times as much money north ofhtat line as south of it.

I repeat, the official line is that that line is magic.

In the real world, there is a REASON for things.

In the real world there is no free lunch.

The reason a Mexican gets ten times as much here is because he is crossing a line from a country controlled by Mexicans to a country controlled by Americans.

The problem is, of course, that this magic line is ALWAYS a racial thing. When colored people cross the magic line into countries controlled by whites, their incomes instantly increases exponentially.

So you just call anybody who says the line is not magic a racist. No libertarian is capable of thinking of this point because his mind is blocked against anything that has obvious racial implications.

So the line is that if all the Mexicans moved here, and we all moved to Mexico, the United States would be just as rich as it is now as long as we kept the Constitution and books about libertarianism.

Japan has less resources than Mexico does, and they just copied our methods. Like Japan, we would soon have an American standard of living again. If only whites moved south of the magic line and left all the dark-colored people here with our new Mexican population, the line would become magical in the southward direction.

In the twentieth century, only the Communists accomplished the miracle of keeping white countries poor.

Libertarians have a way to MAKE them poor.

It’s called “the free movement of capital, goods, services AND LABOR.”

Libertarian Wordism and Marxist Wordism, who say that some philosophy of government is going to make all the difference and race none, are equally ridiculous and equally destructive."
