Immigration - October 2006

That you are racist? I am not racist, I am AGAINST ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION, keyword is ILLEGAL! And I also hate spanish being spoken in this country when everyone should speak ENGLISH! That's not racist. Racist is like the KKK or the Nazis. I am not a KKK member or a Nazi!

I am not racist, but if those latinos take over a government, the country will go down the drain. I am not trying to say they are stupid, I have many of those latino friends but I honestly think they government, and any other type of politics should stay between white people because I believe we do the best job at it. So what should we do to prevent the that latino population from taking over?

BROWNSVILLE — A judge denied bond today to a man accused of bringing his 14-year-old stepdaughter across the Texas-Mexico border illegally to get an education, but instead holding her captive and sexually abusing her.

The girl, who suffered "substantial bodily injury" during her approximate two months in captivity, has been returned to her mother in Matamoros, Mexico, police said.

The girl's mother approached a U.S. Customs officer on Oct. 2 on an international bridge near her home in Matamoros because she was worried that the girl's stepfather wasn't allowing any family to visit her.

The girl was found the next day in a locked trailer in Brownsville. Police issued a warrant for the stepfather, Juan Miguel Medrano, and a tip led them to a relative's trailer home late Saturday where he was found hiding in a closet.

Magistrate Phil Bellamy denied bond for Medrano, a U.S. citizen, today.

The girl, who is not being identified because she is a juvenile victim of sexual abuse, told detectives she had moved in with Medrano about six months ago but had been kept in the trailer, sometimes with her ankle chained, for about the past two months, arrest affidavits show.

She said Medrano sexually abused her and sometimes got her drunk. She said she once woke up bound to a bed by her wrist and ankles, unsure whether she'd been abused. The detectives said they found evidence of bondage and of "substantial bodily injury" due to sexual assault.

Brownsville police Lt. James Paschall said the girl required medical treatment but that he could not comment further.

The girl had crossed the border illegally from Matamoros, Mexico, across the Rio Grande from Brownsville, and was to live with Medrano while she attended school in Brownsville.

Police told the Brownsville Herald she was found in the trailer "delirious and not in her right mind."

The girl was housed briefly in a women's shelter before being returned to her mother in Mexico. It was unclear whether her mother still was married to Medrano.

Officials were trying to get her asylum to return to Brownsville as a crime victim during the investigation, Paschall said.

Medrano is charged with aggravated sexual assault of a child, unlawful restraint and endangerment, and child abandonment.

Aggravated sexual assault of a child, the most serious charge, is punishable by five to 99 years in prison and up to a $10,000 fine.

Illegal immigrants are especially vulnerable to sexual assault and domestic violence, said Meredith Linsky, an attorney with the South Texas Pro Bono Asylum and Representation Project.

"We certainly see a lot of sexual abuse and domestic violence perpetrated, " she said. "It's important that this come to light for the public safety as well as the humanitarian aspect of these young and often defenseless victims

With regard to individual liberty, is it a good thing that the government has restrictions on this? What would the implications be if there were no immigration laws?

FALFURRIAS — Seventeen illegal immigrants were found hidden in the back of a hot U-Haul moving truck, U.S. Customs and Border Protection said today.

The immigrants were discovered by a Border Patrol dog at an inland highway checkpoint Friday. All were given fluids but declined medical attention.

All the immigrants were from Mexico and returned voluntarily to Mexico.

The driver, a 29-year-old U.S. citizen from Brownsville, was arrested and charged with alien smuggling.

So. we have asserted that MOST americans will not work for such low wages. but that is not the whole point. the point is that they come into our country without our premission. This is illegal, and i must say that our punishment for this is not severe enough. Immigration is what depletes the US economy -Bill Clinton. He is a smart man, he knows his stuff.

So why do we stick up for the illegal immigrants instead of kicking their ******* a s s e s back over the border. This is most unbecoming of a good american citizen.

I am VERY convinced that suicide bombers are in the U.S. If ANYONE can arrive in Mexico and easily enter the U.S, than we MUST HAVE TONS of what would be a suicide bombers already here, called "sleeper cells", waiting for the right time.

There's a certain portion of our country that will pull out the race card anytime you even mention enforcing immigration laws. They'll call you a racist and say that deporting illegal aliens is simply because "you just hate brown people". They'll never ask you how you'd solve the problem or what should be done about it so that people can come here legally and in an orderly fashion that benefits all. They won't ask you why you want them enforced. They'll shrug off any mention of national security, crime, social services spending, state budgets or anything else that is logical. Here's a few others covering this issue today.

I can't say that they are taking jobs that all americans want, but doesn't it scare or people that there is proof that they have vote in elections? Also to be honest they do work in some fields that american do too, like construction, all they do there is make it harded for a guy like me to get a construction job by taking me out at the knees, why would some foreman pay me a respectable wage when he can pay some mexican guy $4 an hour?

My husband is abroad and I have filed proper papers to have him allowed to return to America with me. I lost everything I owned due to Hurricane Katrina (even my job last year). I have been told because i am a victim of Hurricane Katrina that he will not have to have a financial sponsor because i did not have a job for three months last year and my income from last year was below poverty guidelines. I have been told that i am exempt from getting financial sponsor due to circumstances beyond my control. Please respond if you are an immigration official or am immigration lawyer. I really love my husband and I cant go to live with him there because i have my kids here and in school. I am an American citizen.

We are adopting a baby from Guatemala and need to get him to the US asap. We may need to bring him home before adoption is complete so he can begin treatment for amputated leg. The adoption process from Guatemala can be lengthy and we don't have that kind of time.
