Is this a brilliant overview of the cost of illegals in America?
Instead of calling it illegal immigration, we should be calling it a foreign invasion, because the consequences of this invasion are as terminal to our freedoms and to our way of life as any act of terrorism ever perpetrated against us!the financial cost of this foreign invasion to U.S. taxpayers is staggering! Here is a break down of the annual costs:
Education: $22.5 billion
Bi-lingual Education: $3.3 billion
AFDC: $2.4 billion
SSI: $2.9 billion
Social Security: $24.8 billion
Housing Assistance: $2.6 billion
Criminal Justice: $2.6 billion
Jobs Lost by Americans: $10.8 billion
Other Programs: $51.4 billion
Food Stamps: $7 billion
Health Care: $1.4 billion

I am an illegal immigrant, so I don't have a social security number but I have so much money now it is no longer smart or safe to not have it in a bank. Even though my house is in a great neighborhood I am scared that someone will steal the millions of dollars from my hiding place.

Can Yahoo be held legally responsible for it's failure to properly monitor it's forums, with false reports ?
In the different forums people are being targeted by small groups with repeated false reports and those people, who are posting proper questions and answers are being suspended. Does Yahoo have a fiduciary responsibility to properly and fairly monitor this and can they be held legally liable for failure to live up to it's own guidelines?

Is Yahoo guilty of breach of the Public Trust Doctrine
in the way they use arbitrary and capricious removals?
in the immigration forum?

They have a duty to preserve the integrity of what
they offer, fair treatment for all without malicious
retribution by a favored group.

Have you been mischaracterized or punitively treated
by Yahoo and those of illegal designes by having your
account threatened, removed or suspended?

Jose Trejo Encino
When Jose Trejo Encino lost control of his 1996 Pontiac Grand Prix late one night last month in Madison County, Tenn., killing one of his passengers and injuring another, he at least had the presence of mind to throw the cans of beer he had from the car into the woods before the police arrived, according to affidavits entered in court from witnesses.

Encino, 27, who admitted to deputies at the scene "to drinking a 12-pack of beer earlier in the night," is now facing charges of vehicular homicide and tampering with evidence after the one-car accident that killed Sergio Lopez, 18, and injured Hugo Trejo, 20. An administrative hold was also placed on Encino this week after an agent for the U.S. Department of Immigration and Customs Enforcement determined the suspect was in the U.S. illegally. He is being held on $150,000 bond.

While speaking against recent grass roots movements to fight illegal immigration Cesar Perales, President & Gen Counsel for the Puerto Rican Legal Defense & Education fund, was quoted as follows:

"It's basically saying those people (illegal immigrants) are illegal in their very nature; It is all right to be against them because they are lawbreakers"

Here's another from Domingo Garcia, National civil rights chairman of LULAC and former Texas State representative and Dallas City council member:

paraphrased " To refer to a hispanic as an illegal immigrant, regardless of status of documentation, is a racial slur just as insulting as calling a black man "the N word" (he didn't censor) "

It seems to me that these high profile illegal immigration supporters are trying to re-define our language. By definition an illegal immigrant is a lawbreaker. They have entered or stayed in our country in defiance of laws against their actions.

What do you think ?

A small suburb community in Texas is considering adopting an ordinance that will enable the town to join in on the fight against illigal immigration. It would punish businesses that employ illegal aliens with an escalating range starting with fines and ending with denial of business permits. The ordinance also requires all people who rent their domicile to apply to the city for a registration permit. Any property owner who rents to a person who does not have the proper permit would be fined. Part of the application process for obtaining said permit would be verification of citizenship or immigration status. Lastly, the ordinance would adopt english as the official language of the town for all town business.

Do you think that this town's effort to control immigration is inherently racist or simply common sense ???

The noise about illegal migrants in this country should not be used to scare the good peolpe of this country. rather the govt. should let them know the benefits of having migrants in the country. migrants who have stayed in the country illegally for four to five years with proof should be given amnesty and allowed to remain and contribute to the society.

I want to change the name on my Social Security card. I'm already married and I've already changed it from my maiden name to my married name, so it reads First Name / Middle Name / Married Name.

Now, I want to change it to show as follows:

FN / MN / Maiden Name / Married Name

Is there anything else I need to do legally? I just like my maiden name as much as my married name since it's unusual and am quite proud of it and my heritage.

I don't think it matters too much at the moment since I live in the UK (6yrs now) and unless I change what my legal documents here say then I'm okay in the US. But I could be wrong.

FARMERS BRANCH, Texas -- This Dallas suburb could become the first city in Texas to adopt a sweeping ordinance intended to keep out illegal immigrants, a cause for concern among its large minority population.

More than 50 municipalities nationwide have considered, passed or rejected laws banning landlords from leasing to illegal immigrants, penalizing businesses that employ undocumented workers and making English the local official language.

But until now, that trend hasn't been matched in the Lone Star State.

"This is the first town in Texas that had the guts to do what's right," Susie Hart, who grew up in Farmers Branch, said during a recent demonstration outside City Hall. "The education system is tanking, health care has gone through the roof, everybody is bilingual."

Such sentiments and the proposed ordinance trouble many people in Texas, where many Latino families can trace their roots here to the era before statehood.

"This is not just a Farmers Branch problem," Elizabeth Villafranca said of the proposal.

Villafranca, whose family owns a Mexican restaurant in Farmers Branch, said she worries that such laws will spread to other cities if the City Council approves the proposal. The measure is expected to be submitted to the council on Monday, but there was no indication when it might be put to a vote.

Since 1970, Farmers Branch has changed from a small, predominantly white bedroom community with a declining population to a city of almost 28,000 people, about 37 percent of them Hispanic, according to the census.

It also is home to more than 80 corporate headquarters and more than 2,600 small and mid-size firms, many of them minority-owned.

The local debate over illegal immigration began in August and spawned demonstrations by both sides of the issue. Council members adopted a resolution criticizing the federal government for not aggressively addressing the issue.

A councilman has given city attorneys drafts of an ordinance that would make English the city's official language and proposals to fine companies and landlords who do business with illegal immigrants.

The Farmer's Branch proposal follows a vote this year in Hazleton, Pa., to fine landlords who rent to illegal immigrants, deny business permits to companies that employ them and require tenants to register and pay for a rental permit. However, a federal judge temporarily blocked enforcement of the Hazleton ordinance while he considers a lawsuit against the town by the Puerto Rican Legal Defense and Education Fund, the American Civil Liberties Union and other groups.

More than a dozen other Pennsylvania cities have taken up similar ordinances, as have several others in the South and a handful in California.

Many of the towns and counties have based their ordinances on a model provided by the Immigration Reform Law Institute, which favors limits on immigration and is affiliated with the Federation for American Immigration Reform.

"They've all expressed a great deal of frustration with the failure of the federal government to respond" to illegal immigration, said Mike Hethmon, the institute's general counsel.

Critics fear the spread of anti-illegal immigration rules will lead to sanctioned discrimination and racism.

"It's basically saying those people are illegal in their very nature; it is all right to be against them because they are lawbreakers. Many people are assuming that all immigrants are lawbreakers, and that people who are different, who speak a different language, are to be shunned," said Cesar Perales, president and general counsel of the Puerto Rican Legal Defense and Education Fund

Democrats to 'revisit' law creating border fence
By Shaun Waterman

Democrats will look again at the legislation mandating 698 miles of fencing along the U.S.-Mexico border and might seek to scrap the plan altogether when they take control of Congress next year.
Rep. Bennie Thompson, Mississippi Democrat, told reporters this week that he expected to "revisit" the issue when he becomes chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee in the 110th Congress.
Mr. Thompson said the Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) new border enforcement program, known as the Secure Border Initiative or SBI Net -- which includes monitors, cameras and other integrated surveillance systems -- is a viable alternative to fencing.
"We might do away with it, or look at [integrating it into] SBI Net," he said. "A virtual fence rather than a real one."
President Bush and Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff have voiced similar concerns about building the fence.
DHS spokesman Russ Knocke told United Press International that in remote border areas, "virtual fencing ... is more advantageous, " whereas "traditional fencing has a core role in our border security strategy ... especially in urban areas."
"We're optimistic that working with Congress we'll get the flexibility to integrate traditional fencing into a seamless, high-tech border security system," Mr. Knocke said.
Mr. Thompson also pledged more aggressive oversight of the department, saying that improving its responsiveness to congressional requests for information and reports would be at the "top of my agenda."
He said his committee would seek to boost funding for rail and mass transit; strengthen security regulations for chemical plants and container cargo; and implement what he said were a number of recommendations from the September 11 commission that have yet to be addressed.
Mr. Thompson pledged to pass an authorization bill for the department. The committee has approved an authorization bill the past three years, but the legislation hasn't passed the full Senate, which some attribute to turf conflicts with other committees.
Mr. Thompson acknowledged that "there will still be some split jurisdiction, " but maintained that Democrats would be in a better position to work out turf issues. "We can make it work," he said.
He pledged to demand answers from Mr. Chertoff on what he said was an unacceptable level of vacancies in the department's senior ranks.
"The secretary needs to come clean with the committee and tell us why he can't fill these positions," Mr. Thompson said, adding that Mr. Chertoff would need to come up with ideas to address the situation, "or we will have to provide some ideas for him."
