Fact or Fiction: Illegals do the work that Americans won't do? (answer below)
Since picking up the banner in the battle to secure our borders from the steady stream of illegals more than two years ago, Grassfire has heard (as many of you are as well) all the rhetoric from those who disagree with our position.
Now in an effort to help you bring greater clarity and understanding to the border crisis when discussing it with friends and family, we dispel some of the more popular half-truths and lies being told about the illegal immigration crisis.
++Myth #1--Illegal aliens pay taxes that benefit our economy Not true. Most illegals are paid in cash and therefore pay no taxes. Even in instances where they do pay taxes (only possible if they use a fraudulent social security number or tax ID) they don't pay enough to cover their expenses.
A visit to any L.A. County maternity ward will give you ample proof of this. There thousands of women each year have babies free of charge (and many return to have more).
Additionally, the vast majority learn who to use the system to acquire food stamps and financial assistance.
++ Myth #2--Illegals come to the U.S. for jobs to support their families back in their homeland.
This is partly true. However record numbers of those illegally crossing the borders are women and children! What's more, there are also record numbers of dead-beat dads who simply abandon their families.
++ Myth #3--Illegals don't affect politics because they can't vote Not true. The fact that they are counted in the census gives them political power. Since representatives in Congress are fixed, it creates a situation in state's that have a heavy influence of illegals. Those "illegals" will likely be represented. As such, it takes away representation from people in other states--people who are here legally.
++ Myth #4--Illegals do the work that Americans won't do
Not true. Americans will do the work provided they are paid a reasonable wage. But profit-greedy employers and corporations are increasingly favoring cheap labor. Their profits soar, but at the expense of American taxpayers who have to subsidize the labor costs by supplying the illegal workforce (and their families) with welfare, education, medical, housing assistance. Employers of these people simply turn a deaf ear.
++ Myth #5--Illegal Immigration doesn't really affect me
Not true. As we have reported in the past, in non-border states like Connecticut, North Carolina, Georgia and New Jersey, illegal immigration is rampant. That means in each of these states, benefits allocated to citizens are being taxed and stressed by illegal infiltration. If the problem becomes severe enough (as in California and Arizona) those services dry up. In both L.A., and Tucson, AZ hospitals have been forced to close due to the incredible strain of illegals.
************************************************ *************************************************** As a teacher, I sat dumbfounded last May 16, 2005, when the Rocky Mountain News inked a story, "What Happened?" to a stunned Denver, Colorado audience. In a five year study starting in 1999 in Denver Public Schools, 5,663 students started the eighth grade. Five years later, only 1,884 graduated from high school. That's a 65 percent drop out/flunk out rate! That's pathetic, if not frightening.
What was the cause? First of all, 30,000 illegal aliens, speaking 40 different languages, attended Denver schools. Our classrooms suffered thousands of kids functionally illiterate in English with parents functionally illiterate in English and Spanish. The classrooms featured so much incompatible diversity that it created horrific tension, stabbings and death.
Thus, American kids suffered a profoundly dumbed-down educational process. One in five teachers quit or transferred out of those Denver classrooms every nine month cycle during those five years.
Last week, the Denver Post announced that 30 percent of teachers in Denver schools were not coming back next year. This is a nationwide travesty. Why? As a teacher, I taught in the inner city in the 1970s. It's exasperating beyond understanding to walk into a classroom where children suffer learning disabilities, broken homes, teen pregnancies at 14, 15, 16, multiple languages and violent confrontations with other ethnic groups. It's impossible to teach. I left my idealism in the ghetto and escaped to a suburban school. But, today, teachers can't escape because over 1.5 million illegal alien students with more than 100 languages attend our kids' schools nationwide. We witness a national breakdown in education. Last week, Superintendent Roy Romer of Los Angeles public schools resigned in frustration and defeat. California schools match the violence of a war zone.
Can you imagine such a failure rate across the country? Can you imagine the consequences of an illiterate generation leading this Republic into the 21st century? Folks, this country won't make it. Where is the outrage?
It takes four aspects for a free and democratic society to maintain itself. It requires a highly educated population that can write, read, think and vote intelligently. It takes a similar moral code whereby everyone adheres to the common good. It requires a similar code of ethics whereby citizens adhere to honesty, doing what is right and maintaining those ethics throughout the social fabric. Finally, it takes a similar language that allows citizens to discuss, debate and resolve problems. We compromise all four with an invasion exceeding four million new people into the USA annually?20 million illegals to date and climbing. We allow the disintegration of our nation without a whimper. Where is the outrage?
Last Monday, February 20, 2006, the Rocky Mountain News reported, "Mile-High Drug Hub" making Denver the leading center for drug distribution in the United States. It's part of MS-13 Gang's dispersal of $128 billion in drugs crossing our border with Mexico every year. Ironically, Congress guards South Korea's border with 37,000 troops with our billions in tax dollars, pats down gray-haired ladies at our airports, spends $80 billion annually on the war on drugs, but leaves our border unguarded allowing that $128 billion in drugs to cross year after year. Additionally, terrorists from any country can walk over the Mexican border with a 99 percent chance of succeeding. Where is the outrage?
With a growing illegal alien population exceeding 300,000 in Colorado, the state House legislators on Wednesday of last week defeated six bills to stop illegal alien migration. One particular bill, HB 1134, would have given cops the ability to arrest, detain and deport illegals. It was soundly defeated after dozens of citizens, including this Coloradan, testified to support the bill's passage.
I demanded, "We are tired of being collateral damage for illegal aliens. We're tired of being raped, killed, robbed and our schools being rashed by multiple languages while our m edical systems take better care of illegals than our own citizens."
Representative Francesca Natividad Coleman remarked that it was a Federal issue. I retorted, "We're the ones getting killed and raped here locally and we're tired of it." Last year, three Coloradans were killed by illegals; Greeley, Colorado suffered 270 hit and run car accidents alone; eight rapes by illegal aliens in Boulder and thousands of robberies. Where is the outrage?
To top off the crisis in our Denver schools, the Rocky Mountain News reported the next day, February 21, 2006, "Welfare Surges 45%" with an increase of 4,743 cases. They said it was tough job hunting, but neglected to mention that 300,000 illegal aliens in Colorado stole jobs from Coloradans in every sector: drywall, construction, landscaping, fast food, house painting, janitorial, paving and dozens of other jobs formerly worked by Coloradans. Where is the outrage?
Denver Mayor Hickenlooper hired illegal aliens long before he was mayor and one of his illegal employees, Raul Gomez-Garcia, killed Denver police officer Don Young last May. Hickenlooper stood in direct violation of federal laws and could have been fined $2, 000.00 per illegal alien hired (estimated at 70 working in his restaurants) and he could have gone to prison for five years. Governor Owens actually endorsed a booklet showing illegal aliens how to imbed themselves in Colorado. He aided and abetted illegal aliens, but didn't receive a slap on the wrist. Where is the outrage?
Since it's happening in my state with 300,000 illegal aliens, can you imagine what is happening in California with three million? Or, North Carolina with one million? How about Illinois with one million illegals? How about Texas with 1.5 million? I know Texans pay over $4.1 billion annually for educating their massive load of student illegals Where is the outrage?
We're being colonized with over nine million illegal alien Mexicans crashing our schools, medical systems, language, culture, parks, tax and welfare systems. One look at the headlines of major newspapers across the country echoes and mirrors the Rocky Mountain News. Where is the outrage?
It stupefies me beyond comprehension that Americans sit back and watch this invasion of their country without any outrage. Worse, without any response! More than that--without a concern for their own kids' future! Even more horrific, the line of immigrants from Mexico (and the world) shows no sign of stopping, as the number of Mexicans grows from their current 106 million to 200 million in this century.
As I open this can of worms weekly; as I expose this accelerating national crisis weekly; as you experience its quickening day by day? I would think the outrage would reach fantastic levels. But it is not! In fact, Bush, Congress and governors of all 50 states not only watch it happen they actively aid and abet it Arlan Specter of Pennsylvania wants to add another one to two million legal immigrants annually. Senators John McCain and Ted Kennedy want to give amnesty to 20 million illegals and add more in a guest worker program. Utah's Chris Cannon welcomes millions of Mexicans as he encourages their takeover of our country. His sidekick Senator Orrin Hatch mirrors that sentiment. Representative Joe Baca of California actively promotes the takeover of California by Mexico as he endorses "Reconquista of Aztlan." As Mark Twain said, "Suppose you were an idiot; and suppose you were a member of Congress; but then, I repeat myself." Twain got it right, but where is the outrage?
While 85 to 95 percent of the American public wants our borders secured, they stand around quietly sucking their thumbs while doing nothing. However, the outrage and arrogance of millions of illegal alien migrants in America advances like Paris, France's recent experience with immigration? 10,000 fire bombed cars and a month-long conflagration! We watched stupidly as if it won't happen to us. Think again!

Lawmakers Pass Separate Bill to Kill Border Fence Construction Funding Sent Elsewhere!
They do not think you will notice or care about their trickery!!!
Excerpt from Washington Post Friday, October 6, 2006 “No sooner did Congress authorize construction of a 700-mile fence on the U.S.-Mexico border last week than lawmakers rushed to approve separate legislation that ensures it will never be built, at least not as advertised, according to Republican lawmakers and immigration experts.”
GOP leaders have singled out the border fence as one of their premier “tough on illegal immigration” accomplishments of the recently completed Congressional session. Many lawmakers plan to highlight their $1.2 billion “down payment” on border fence construction as they campaign in the weeks before the midterm elections.
But it seems it is all smoke and mirrors to “fool the voters”!
The Minutemen aren’t fooled, and we need your help!

Shortly before recessing late last Friday, the House and Senate gave the Bush administration broad leeway to distribute the money to a whole host of other projects – not just the physical barrier along the southern border.
"It's one thing to authorize. It's another thing to actually appropriate the money and do it," said Sen. John Cornyn (R-Tex.).
The fine-print distinction between what Congress says it will do and what it actually pays for is a time-honored political maneuver to pull the wool over the voters’ eyes, and make them think problems are being solved that are NOT…
In this case, it also reflects political calculations by GOP strategists that voters do not mind the details, and that key players – including the administration, local leaders and the Mexican government – oppose a fence-first approach, analysts said.
The Senate Plan is clear… 1. Before the election, pass a last-minute smoke screen and head home to campaign, telling the voters Congress has secured the border…
2. Obey the Mexican President after the election – offer a blanket amnesty to millions of illegal immigrants for U.S. citizenship, and let illegal aliens, gangsters and terrorists have free access to American territory across our still-open borders!

Mexican President Fox Opposes all Fencing The President of Mexico Vincente Fox has railed against any fencing, calling it "shameful" and falsely comparing it to the Berlin Wall that the Communists built to imprison their subjected population.
A spokesman for President Vicente Fox predicted on Wednesday that the United States will probably never build 700 miles of new fencing along the border that divides the two nations. The Mexican government sent a diplomatic note to Washington criticizing last week's U.S. Senate vote to authorize the new fencing. President-elect Felipe Calderon, who replaces Fox on Dec. 1, has also criticized the fence plans.
Minutemen Stand Up to Mexico and Build Security Fencing Over the objections of Vincente Fox and the Mexican government, the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps is leading the way to build border security fencing. The fencing is being installed to demonstrate how it is an integral part of a total security plan that includes vehicle barriers, fiber optic sensors, cameras, anti-climb barriers and increased ground patrols to give the U.S. Border Patrol more operational command of our frontier.

Fences Do Work! Fences in San Diego California have dramatically reduced trafficking – illegal alien apprehensions dropped from 202,000 in 1992 to less than 9,000 in 2004.

In Arizona, the Volunteers of the Minuteman Civil Defense Corps are already building security fences and vehicle barriers on private land using private donations, which have vastly diminished illegal intruders in our sectors. A multi-level design which includes anti-climb fencing, fiber-optic fencing, vehicle barriers and camera systems to observe and report will allow thousands of Minutemen to monitor the border day and night, 365 days a year.
Give what you can TODAY!
A new one mile segment of fourteen foot high, anti-climb Israeli style double fence barrier, with cameras and ground sensors is being installed at our current project at the Hodges Ranch. The Minuteman Border Fence will help local Arizona ranchers and landowners to make actual progress in the imperative task to secure the U.S. border and stop illegal aliens, criminals and terrorists from violating sovereign American territory.

When they catch an illegal immigrant crossing the border, hand him a canteen, a rifle, and some ammo, and ship him to Iraq. Tell him if he wants to come to America he must serve a tour in the military. Give him a soldier's pay while he's there and tax him on it. After his tour in Iraq, he will be allowed to become a citizen since he defended this country. He will also be registered to be taxed and be a legal patriot.
This option will probably deter illegal immigration and provide a solution for the troops in Iraq and the aliens trying to make a better life for themselves. If they refuse to serve, ship them to Iraq anyway without the canteen, rifle, or ammo.

If you are a rational human being, you just have to ask yourself WHY we are putting up with this shit! . Can the answer be near the bottom highlighted in red for you?

NOW .. ARE YOU READY TO GET PISSED OFF??
The cost of immigration to the American taxpayer in 1997 was a NET (after subtracting taxes immigrants pay) $70 BILLION a year, [Professor Donald Huddle, Rice University]; The estimated profit to U.S. corporations and businesses employing illegal aliens in 2005 was more than $2.36 TRILLION dollars;
The lifetime fiscal impact (taxes paid minus services used) for the average adult Mexican illegal alien is $55,000.00 cost to the American taxpayer in a 5-year span.
TIME TO WAKE UP BUTTHEAD: You, personally, are giving $11,000 every year to illegal aliens.
=====================================================
WANT TO HELP SOLVE THIS PROBLEM ?
VOTE this coming November .... and VOTE against ALL sitting Incumbent members of the most perverted Congress in the history of our nation. No sitting member of the 109th Congress is worthy of redemption; all have commited TREASON against the nation, against her people, and against the US Constitution!
The answer is NOT re-election, the answer is JAIL for all Congress-critters.
PLEASE PASS THIS ALONG THE INTERNET, TO EVERY ONE OF YOUR CONTACTS, NATIONWIDE!
********************************************************** There is a huge amount of propaganda and myths circulating about illegal aliens, particularly illegal Mexican, Salvadorian, Guatemalan and Honduran aliens.
1. Illegal aliens generally do NOT want U.S. citizenship. Americans are very vain thinking that everybody in the world wants to be a U.S. citizen. Mexicans, and other nationalities want to remain citizens of their home countries while obtaining the benefits offered by the United States such as employment, medical care, in-state tuition, government subsidized housing and free education for their offspring. Their main attraction is employment and their loyalty usually remains at home. They want benefits earned and subsidized by middle class Americans. What illegal aliens want are benefits of American residence without paying the price.
2. There are no jobs that Americans won't do. Illegal aliens are doing jobs that Americans can't take and still support their families. Illegal aliens take low wage jobs, live dozens in a single residence home, share expenses and send money to their home country. There are no jobs that Americans won't do for a decent wage.
3. Every person who illegally entered this nation left a home. They are NOT homeless and they are NOT Americans. Some left jobs in their home countries. They come to send money to their real home as evidenced by the more than 20 billion dollars sent out of the country each year by illegal aliens. These illegal aliens knowingly and willfully entered this nation in violation of the law and therefore assumed the risk of detection and deportation. Those who brought their alien children assumed the responsibility and risk on behalf of their children.
4. Illegal aliens are NOT critical to the economy. Illegal aliens constitute less than 5% of the workforce. However, they reduce wages and benefits for lawful U.S. residents.
5. This is NOT an immigrant nation. There are 280 million native born Americans. While it is true that this nation was settled and founded by immigrants (legal immigrants), it is also true that there is not a nation on this planet that was not settled by immigrants at one time or another.
6. The United States is welcoming to legal immigrants. Illegal aliens are not immigrants by definition. The U.S. accepts more lawful immigrants every year than the rest of the world combined.
7. There is no such thing as the "Hispanic vote". Hispanics are white, brown, black and every shade in between. Hispanics are Repu blicans, Democrats, Anarchists, Communists, Marxists and Independents. The so-called "Hispanic vote" is a myth. Pandering to illegal aliens to get the Hispanic vote is a dead end.
8. Mexico is NOT a friend of the United States. Since 1848 Mexicans have resented the United States. During World War I Mexico allowed German Spies to operate freely in Mexico to spy on the U.S. During World War II Mexico allowed the Axis powers to spy on the U.S. from Mexico. During the Cold War Mexico allowed spies hostile to the U.S. to operate freely. The attack on the Twin Towers in 2001 was cheered and applauded all across Mexico. Today Mexican school children are taught that the U.S. stole California, Arizona, new Mexico and Texas. If you don't believe it, check out some Mexican textbooks written for their schoolchildren.
9. Although some illegal aliens enter this country for a better life, there are 6 billion people on this planet. At least 1 billion of those live on less than one dollar a day. If wanting a better life is a valid excuse to break the law and sneak into America, then let's allow those one billion to come to America and we'll turn the USA into a Third World nation overnight. Besides, there are 280 million native born Americans who want a better life. I'll bet Bill Gates and Donald Trump want a better life. When will the USA lifeboat be full? Since when is wanting a better life a good reason to trash another nation?
10. There is a labor shortage in this country. This is a lie. There are hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of American housewives, senior citizens, students, unemployed and underemployed who would gladly take jobs at a decent wage.
11. It is racist to want secure borders. What is racist about wanting secure borders and a secure America? What is racist about not wanting people to sneak into America and steal benefits we have set aside for legal aliens, senior citizens, children and other legal residents? What is it about race that entitles people to violate our laws, steal identities, and take the American Dream without paying the price?
For about four decades American politicians have refused to secure our borders and look after the welfare of middle class Americans. These politicians have been of both parties. A huge debt to American society has resulted. This debt will be satisfied and the interest will be high. There has already been riots in the streets by illegal aliens and their supporters. There will be more. You, as a politician, have a choice to offend the illegal aliens who have stolen into this country and demanded the rights afforded to U.S. citizens or to offend those of us who are stakeholders in this country. The interest will be steep either way. There will be civil unrest. There will be a reckoning. Do you have the courage to do what is right for America? Or, will you bow to the wants and needs of those who don't even have the right to remain here?
There will be a reckoning. It will come in November of this year, again in 2008 and yet again in 2010.
We will not allow America to be stolen by third world agitators and thieves.

To purchase contact any Senator. The only requirement to buy is you must have entered the country illegally.
The politicians in the Senate want to cover up the fact that they are creating another amnesty so they have added a token fine of $2000 as part of the amnesty. Here is why that amount is meaningless.
Illegal immigrants pay smugglers huge sums of money to enter the United States often times $60,000 or more. This "fine" is nothing compared to what people will pay to enter the country.
Illegal immigrants have to pay for fake documents to work in the country. They pay hundreds of dollars to purchase these documents from corrupt bureaucrats. Over a couple of decades this will add up to more then $2000. So when corrupt politicians add a token fee onto their amnesty program they are simply charging them something they would have to pay anyway.
Finally the illegal immigrants are given access to resources worth far more then a paltry $2000. They will have access to Welfare, Social Security, and Affirmative Action Jobs. All of which has a far larger dollar value then the token "fine" the Senators are suggesting.
**************************************** The following rules shall be obeyed by ALL LEGAL AMERICANS, no matter what the cost....
All LEGAL AMERICANS shall pay their taxes, so that the following may continue...
All ILLEGAL ALIENS shall consider AMERICAN tax dollars as their own personal rainy day funds, so as not to discomfort them on their stay here as hard working people with families to support, regardless of the needs of AMERICANS paying into said fund...same monies also to be used for any and all government and social services they may need in the future....any American speaking up about this, shall be comprehensively ignored.... AMERICAN SCHOOLCHILDREN shall get an education as warranted according to school taxes paid in by AMERICANS, regardless of non- payment of taxes by ILLEGAL ALIENS!!! Should the education quality go DOWN because of stress placed on said school budgets BY ILLEGAL ALIENS, it is the LEGAL AMERICANS obligation to pick up the further cost of educating said ILLEGALS regardless of the quality of education their own children shall receive.... ILLEGAL ALIENS working here more than 5 years without paying ANY taxes or SS monies, shall still be eligible for SS benefits when they reach retirement age...it is up to LEGAL AMERICANS to make sure this fund is kept up to it's full potential, so no hard working ILLEGAL ALIEN shall find any difficulties when they apply for said social service.... ILLEGAL ALIENS shall receive in-state tuition rates posthaste even AS LEGAL AMERICAN VETS who were promised school monies upon entering our ARMED FORCES need show patience in the red tape a paperwork regarding their situations.... ILLEGAL ALIENS shall be promptly checked before all others upon entering any hospital emergency room for medical attention, regardless of the nature of the situation...those with insurance will need step aside, as their paperwork may interfere with ILLEGAL ALIENS being swiftly and properly attended to.... ILLEGAL ALIENS may come into our country with as many weapons and drugs as they see fit to propagate their travel here....using earnings from their ventures to purchase their drivers licenses, automobiles, auto insurance, SS cards, work permits, green cards, visas and any other document they may need to make their assimilation that much easier....how else would they join together with their brethren already here and walk the streets without fear of Constituional Laws?? ILLEGAL ALIENS have the right to live where they choose....co- habitating with as many people in a single family apartment or home as they see fit....full rights to harrass, terrorize and intimidate who they choose, when they choose.... ILLEGAL ALIENS shall have the right to filter into our legal workforce regardless of consequences to LEGAL AMERICANS....whether it be OSHA violations, undercutting wages, non-payment of taxes, fraudulent ID's, complete takeover of an industry and it's surrounding community.... ILLEGAL ALIENS shall have the right to infringe on ANY AMERICAN RIGHT to peaceful assembly and turn it into their own bullying rally demanding rights The Constitution claims they do not have..... ILLEGAL ALIENS have the right to rape, murder, steal, assault, drive drunk, urinate in public, intimidate...etc....( as long as it doesn't affect any leaders families or neighborhoods, it's perfectly within their rights)...with the added comfort of knowing they can return to their place of origin should the subject of prosecution come to light...(not knowing who they are and where they're from, helps these poor hard-working individuals continue their family values existence) Peace Officers involved in the apprehension and detention of suspected ILLEGAL ALIEN criminals shall first find the easiest way to resolve the situation with the minimal amount of effort, time and money( God knows we don't wanna spend TOO much rainy day fund money on ILLEGAL ALIEN crime)...i.e.....red tape, paperwork, court appearance, phone calls to ICE, swung blackjack, wasted bullets, ride to jailhouse...etc...all should be worst case scenario last resorts....a slap on the wrist and immediate release shall be best, so as not to insult or stress out said criminal.... All ILLEGAL ALIENS shall have priveleges to learn aviation skills....and armed and unarmed confrontation skills....
There are many more amendments and clauses still to be made on this subject, and we shall deal with them as they come along, unless it is easier to just pass them by...in which no law shall need be written.... I hope ALL AMERICANS will conform to these standards with the fullest regard for the safety and well-being of ILLEGAL ALIENS.....
One last thing....thank you for allowing us to serve you.....your tax dollars help so many, in so many ways, we know you don't mind suffering a bit so others may end THEIR struggles....it's much appreciated, for example, that college education loans are all but a thing of the past for your children....and perhaps 15% or more of the kids in your school district have parents who pay no taxes and your childs music program gets cut to help shoulder the cost....it's quite honorable of you to pay that outlandish property tax that's been raised 6 times in 10 years to facilitate the education of those ILLEGAL ALIENS who are most deserving.... The billions of dollars we send to needy countries could never be spent better here for your own wants and needs...we see that, and act accordingly Needy being such as one country gets 2 billion dollars, just because they are our friend....we help arm other countries that they may use such arms against whoever they please, one day....we go to countries and decide who may have WMD and who may not....

43 percent of persons polled in the U.S. said that immigration is a serious problem.
The other 57 percent said, "No hablo inglis" ********************************************* Cheap labor
Please stop confusing the issue with the facts.
The phrase "cheap labor" is a myth, a farce, and a lie. There is no such thing as "cheap labor."
Take, for example, an illegal Mexican who sneaks in here with his wife and five children. He takes a job for five or six dollars an hour. At that wage with six dependents he pays no income tax, yet at the end of the year gets an "earned income credit" of up to $3,200 free!!!.
He qualifies for Section 8 housing and subsidized rent, food stamps, and free (no deductible, no co-pay) health care.
His children get free breakfasts and lunches at school, and require bi-lingual teachers and books that taxpayers provide.
He doesn't have to worry about car insurance, life insurance, or homeowners insurance.
Taxpayers provide Spanish language signs, bulletins, and printed material. He cannot be fired, harassed, or sued. He and his family receive the equivalent of $20 to $30 an hour in benefits, while working Americans are lucky to have $5 or $6 an hour left after paying their bills and his, and paying for increased crime, graffiti, and trash cleanup.

This is from a retired former teacher of a friend whose wife is a teacher in the Riverside area and has been for many, many years. The attached is first hand knowledge...As you all listen to the news about the student protests over illegal immigration there are some things that you should be aware of.
As some of you may know the authors wife is in charge of the English-as-a-second-language department at large southern California high school, which is designated a Title 1 school, meaning that its student's average in the lower socio-economic income levels. Most of the schools you are hearing about-South Gate High, Bell Gardens, Huntington Park, etc.-where these students are protesting, are also Title 1 schools.
His wife tells him that 100% of the students in her school and other Title 1 schools are on the free breakfast, free lunch program. When I say free breakfast I'm not talking a glass of milk and roll... but a full breakfast and cereal bar with fruits and juices that would make a Marriott proud. The waste of this food is monumental, with trays and trays of it being dumped in the trash uneaten.
She estimates that well over 50% of these students are obese or at least moderately overweight. About 75% or more DO HAVE cell phones.
The school also provides day care centers for the unwed teenage pregnant girls (some as young as 13) so they can attend class without the inconvenience of having to arrange for baby-sitters or having family watch their kids.
She was ordered to spend $700,000 on her department or risk losing funding for the upcoming year even though there was little need for anything; her budget was already substantial. She ended up buying new computers for their computer learning center; half of which, one month later, have been carved with graffiti by the appreciative students who obviously feel humbled and grateful to have a free education in America.
She has had to intervene several times for young and substitute teachers whose classes consist of many illegal immigrant students here in the country less then 3 months who raised so much hell with the female teachers, calling them "Putas"-whores-and throwing things that the teachers were in tears.
Free medical, free education, free food, day care etc., etc., etc. Is it any wonder they feel entitled to not only be in this country but to demand rights, privileges, and entitlements?
To my conservative friends: I hope you're really proud of how George W. Bush has helped to sell-out this country with his pro-illegal alien policy. I voted for him too, but on this issue he is a disaster.
To my bleeding-heart liberal friends who want to point out how much these illegal immigrants contribute to our society because they LIKE their gardener and housekeeper and they like to pay less for tomatoes:
Spend some time in the real world of illegal immigration and see the TRUE costs. Higher insurance, Medical facilities closing, higher medical costs, more crime, lower standards of education in our schools, overcrowding, new diseases etc., etc., etc. As for me, I'll pay more for tomatoes.
We need to wake up. The guest worker program will be a disaster because we won't have the guts to enforce it. Does anyone in their right mind really think they will leave and return voluntarily? There are many hardworking Hispanic/American citizens that contribute to our country and many that I consider my true friends. We should encourage and accept those Hispanics who have done it the right and legal way.
It does, however, have everything to do with culture: A third- world culture that does not value education, that accepts children getting pregnant and dropping out of school by 15 and that refuses to assimilate... and an American culture that has become so weak and politically correct that we don't have the will to do anything about it.

I don't know how everybody else feels about it, but to me I think Hispanic people in this country, legally or illegally, made a huge public relations mistake with their recent demonstrations.
I don't blame anybody in the world for wanting to come to the United States of America, as it is a truly wonderful place. But when the first thing you do when you set foot on American soil is illegal it is flat out wrong and I don't care how many la-la land left heads come out of the woodwork and start trying to give me sensitivity lessons.
I don't need sensitivity lessons; in fact I don't have anything against Mexicans! I just have something against criminals and anybody who comes into this country illegally is a criminal and if you don't believe it try coming into America from another foreign country without a passport and see how far you get.
What disturbs me about the demonstrations is that its tantamount to saying, I am going to come into your country even if it means breaking your laws and there's nothing you can do about it.
Its an in-your-face action and speaking just for me, I don't like it one little bit; and if there were a half dozen pairs of gonads in Washington bigger than English peas it wouldn't be happening.
Where are you, you bunch of lily-livered, pantywaist, forked tongued, sorry excuses for defenders of The Constitution? Have you been drinking the water out of the Potomac again?
And even if you pass a bill on immigration it will probably be so pork laden and watered down that it wont mean anything anyway. Besides, what good is an other law going to do when you won't enforce the ones on the books now?
And what ever happened to the "polls" guys? I thought you folks were the quintessential finger wetters. Well, you sure ain't paying any attention to the polls this time because somewhere around eighty percent of Americans want something done about this mess, and mess it is, and getting bigger everyday.
This is no longer a problem; it is a dilemma and headed for being a tragedy. Do you honestly think that what happened in France with the Muslims can't happen here when the businesses who hire these people finally run out of jobs and a few million disillusioned Hispanics take to the streets?
If you, Mr. President, Congressmen, and Senators, knuckle under on this and refuse to do something meaningful, it means that you care nothing for the kind of country your children and grandchildren will inherit.
But I guess that doesn't matter as long as you get re-elected. Shame on you.
One of the big problems in America today is that if you have the nerve to say anything derogatory about any group of people (except Christians) you are going to be screamed at by the media and called a racist, a bigot and anything else they can think of to call you.
Well, I've been pounded by the media before and I'm still rockin' and rollin' and when it comes to speaking the truth, I fear not. And the truth is that the gutless, gonadless, milksop politicians are just about to sell out the United States of America because they don't have the intestinal fortitude to stand up to the face of reality.
And the reality is that we would never allow any other group of people to have 12 million illegals in this country and turn around and say, Oh it's ok; ya'll can stay here if you'll just allow us to slap your wrist.
And I know that some of you who read this column are saying Well what's wrong with that?
Ill tell you what's wrong with it. These people could be from Mars as far as we know. We don't know who they are, where they are or what they're up to, and the way the Congress is going we're not going to.
Does this make sense? Labor force you say? We already subsidize corporate agriculture as it is; must we subsidize their labor as well?
If these people were from Haiti, would we be so fast to turn a blind eye to them, or if they were from Somalia or Afghanistan? I think not.
All the media shows us are pictures of hard working Hispanics who have crossed the border just to try to better their life. They don't show you pictures of the Feds rounding up members of MS 13, the violent gang who came across the same way the decent folks did. They don't tell you about the living conditions of the Mexican illegals some fat cat hired to pick his crop.
I want to make two predictions. No. 1: This situation is going to grow and fester until it erupts in violence on our streets while the wimps in Washington drag their toes in the dirt and try to figure how many tons of political hay they can make to the acre.
No 2: Somebody is going to cross that border with some kind of weapon of mass destruction and set it off in a major American city after which there will be a backlash such as this country has never experienced, and the Capitol building in Washington will probably tilt as Congressmen and Senators rush to the other side of the issue.
I don't know about you but I would love to see just one major politician stand up and say, I don't care who I make mad and I don't care how many votes I lose, this is a desperate situation and Im going to lead the fight to get it straightened out.
I don't blame anybody for wanting to come to America, but if you don't respect our immigration laws, why would you respect any others?
And by the way, this is America and our flag has stars and stripes. Please get that other one out of my face.
Pray for our troops.
What do you think?

Vote in November to KICK OUT ANYONE who supports ANY ANY ANY type of Amnesty that brings these illegals and their families into the USA.

Media Personalities Desired. If you happen to have your own media outlet, we are seeking your participation in the "Media March". If there is any hope to get the word out to American's about what is happening to this country it is through you that this hope exists.

We would appreciate the participation of bloggers, website owners, and those with other internet sources willing to cover the March events in D.C. and the various States. While location (outside) and situations do not allow for us to be able to offer a large scale blogger operation on location we believe with enough sources moving the information forward rapidly we can still accomplish the same results. What we need is: * Individuals with laptop computers run off batteries to record the events in DC and the various States to post the starter posts on specific sites and to their personal contacts. * Individuals stationed from home to take the time to relay the starter materials posted on various sites to other sites and contacts. Homebound bloggers are welcome to participate by adding information to their own blogs, or through forwarding the blogs of others to their own personal contacts as well as across the web. If you are able to provide your time, resources and abilities to this cause please contact us at www.lframerica.com/contact.html. Lobbyists Welcome. If you and your group/organization are interested in lobbying while you are in D.C. your home State(s), or from your desk chair in your home during the March for America your efforts would be welcome. The more citizens we have taking measure for America during this time the more likeliness we have we might be heard and supported. If you are planning to physically attend the D.C. or State March events, please remember to contact your Congressional and/or Local Representatives prior to the event to inform their staff you wish to make an appointment during your stay. LFRA understands that you will be interested in speaking to the Media during your lobbying efforts. We do request that everyone be sure to give credit where credit is due regarding the March For America event with any of your media or press correspondence. As the March For America event is a collaboration of numerous groups, organizations and individuals who have united together to make this event possible we strongly state that no one individual, group or organization should attempt to claim full credit, but rather should make it clearly known that the March is a united effort of many. From The Home Front. For those supporting from the home front, do not allow your voices to be silenced. Here are some suggestions of ways you can aid during the March For America events. * Contact Legislative offices at National and State levels through phone, fax and e-mails to let them know your stance and to encourage them to come March along side American citizens in support of their country. * Display the American flag from your windows (house, apartment, car) * Write letters to editors to be published on the day of the March for America event. * Write snail-mail letters and send them out to arrive in your representative offices during the time frame of the March. * If you live in a retirement community of communal structure establishment, contact and get with other residents to hold your own protests within the community. Remember to contact the media to get publicity for it, it can't hurt to try... * Wear red/white/blue if you go out in public. * Contact others in the same situation as you in your community and ask them to participate as well. * Be creative, just do something. Rally & Exterior Events Rules
LFRA Rules * Play nice with others! Regardless of race, religion or region of our Nation.

This means that people from all groups and organizations fighting the same cause or sister causes are free to use this site, resources and activities including setting up activities of their own. If you have a personal hangup with how one or another group or it's members operate, that is your personal hangup and does not belong here. This is not the time for separation but unification. * Stick to the causes. While your group might have numerous causes they are working for. LFRA at present is about Illegal Aliens, La Reconquista/Aztlan, Outsourcing, and Corrupt Politics. This does not say your other causes are not just as important, but at present time these are our primary causes we will be focusing on and our countries biggest threats. * Right to bear arms/not bear arms. This is a topic which LFRA will say this much on and no more on the subject.

This includes Tasers. * The only acceptable flags that shall be flown are United States honoring flags. * No Drugs/No drinking during March Event hours. * No Harrassment/Taunting designed to invoke negative action or response from the opposition.
