Immigration - July 2007

I did not know this until about a month ago. I live in a small apartment complex in Dallas. One month I noticed that my electrical jumped from $90 to $170. I spoke with the manager. He is a freind. He told me that this illegal, named Luis, an electrician, was pulling electrical from my apartment. I asked him just how he was doing it. He took me over to the guages and showed me that Luis had no electrical. The guage was no moving at all, and yet, Luis still had electrical . He then took me to talk to Luis. I told Luis that I did not like his doing this. He just looked at me.

Then. the manager called TXU and told them what was going on. They came over, and completely removed the face on his guage.

Still he had electrical.

Then I got my next electrical bill. It dropped to -$49.50.

I realized that Luis was in controll of the electrical on this building, and had changed my meter, so I would not be mad at him.
A freind of mine from Mexico told me, "In Mexico everyone does it."

Time and again it's proven that the precence of illegal immigrants in the work force drive down wages. So if liberals want higher wages, shouldn't they want to stop illegal immigration?

Why can't illegals get it? They are not exempt from the US Laws just because they're criminals from another country.

Entering the US illegally in a time of war is treason. Anyone aiding or abetting an alien in a time of war is also committing treason - this includes employers and renters.

Here is a REAL INTERVIEW with an illegal Mexican at a protest march in Texas.

Below is a good example of a discussion with a master of circular logic. Don't be logical, don't respect the truth or your adversary, just say what you think makes a new case when the previous case gets too difficult to defend. On the streets of downtown Houston, May 1, 2006.

Jim Moore reporting for a Houston TV station:

Jim: Juan, I see that you and thousands of other protesters are marching in the streets to demonstrate for your cause. Exactly what is your cause and what do you expect to accomplish by this protest?
Juan: We want our rights. We will show you how powerful we are. We will bring Houston to its knees!
Jim: What rights?
Juan: Our right to live here legally. Our right to get all the benefits you get.
Jim: When did you come to the United States?
Juan: Six years ago. I crossed over the border at night with seven other friends.
Jim: Why did you come?
Juan: For work. I can earn as much in a month as I could in a year in Mexico. Besides, I get free health care, our Mexican children can go to school free, if I lose my job I will get Welfare, and someday I will have the Social Security. Nothing like that in Mexico!
Jim: Did you feel badly about breaking our immigration laws when you came?
Juan: No! Why should I feel bad? I have a right to be here. I have a right to amnesty I paid lots of money for my Social Security and Green Cards.
Jim: How did you acquire those documents?
Juan: From a guy in Dallas. He charged me a lot of money too.
Jim: Did you know that those documents were forged?
Juan: It is of no matter. I have a right to be here and work.
Jim: What is the "right" you speak of?
Juan: The right of all Aliens. It is found in your Constitution. Read it!
Jim: I have read it, but I do not remember it saying anything about rights for Aliens.
Juan: It is in that part where it says that all men have Alien rights, like the right to pursue happiness. I wasn't happy in Mexico, so I came here.
Jim: I think you are referring to the declaration of Independence and that document speaks to unalienable rights .. Not Alien rights.
Juan: Whatever.
Jim: Since you are demanding to become an American citizen, why then are you carrying a Mexican Flag?
Juan: Because I am Mexican.
Jim: But you said you want to be given amnesty to become a US citizen.
Juan: No. This is not what we want. This is our country, a part of Mexico that you Gringos stole from us. We want it returned to its rightful owner.
Jim: Juan, you are standing in Texas. After wining the war with Mexico, Texas became a Republic, and later Texans voted to join the USA. It was not stolen from Mexico.
Juan: That is a Gringo lie. Texas was stolen. So was California, New Mexico and Arizona It is just like all the other stuff you Gringos steal, like oil and babies. You are a country of thieves.
Jim: Babies? You think we steal babies?
Juan: Sure. Like from Korea and Vietnam and China. I see them all over the place. You let all these foreigners in, but try to keep us Mexicans out. How is this fair?
Jim: So, you really don't want to become an American citizen then.
Juan: I just want my rights! Everyone has a right to live, work, and speak their native language wherever and whenever they please. That's another thing we demand. All signs and official documents should be in Spanish . Teachers must teach in Spanish. Soon, more people here in Houston will speak Spanish than English. It is our right!
Jim: If I were to cross over the border into Mexico without proper documentation, what rights would I have there?
Juan: None. You would probably go to jail, but that's different.
Jim: How is it different? You said everyone has the right to live wherever they please
Juan: You Gringos are a bunch of land grabbing thieves. Now you want Mexico too? Mexico has its rights. You Gringos have no rights in Mexico. Why would you want to go there anyway? There is no free medical service, schools, or welfare there for foreigners such as you. You cannot even own land in my country. Stay in the country of your birth.
Jim: I can see that there is no way that we can agree on this issue. Thank you for your comments.
Juan: Viva Mexico!

Pass this along to every American citizen in your address books and to every representative in the state and federal government. If you choose to remain uninvolved, do not be amazed when you no longer have a nation to call your own nor anything you have worked for left since it will be "redistributed" to the activists while you are so peacefully staying out of the "fray". Check history, it is full of nations/empires that disappeared when its citizens no longer held their core beliefs and values. One person CAN make a difference. One plus one plus one plus one plus one plus one........
The battle for our secure borders and immigration laws that actually mean something, however, hasn't even begun.

why do the illegal immigrants say they are taking jobs the americans wont take. they aren't, they're taking jobs the americans will take for honest pay, but the immigrants are taking those jobs for almost no pay, so the employers are laying off the americans and hireing the immigrants. so no they aren't taking the jobs americans won't, they are taking the jobs from the americans.

I think they should rewrite the law and make it so that a child born in this country by an illegal does not get automatic citizenship.
That's like if I bought a car that was stolen, it would be taken from me or if I had money I made from dealing drugs it would be seized. Why reward an illegal because they ran the border and had an illegal kid here?

There is a growing trend of towns taking the incentive to crack down on illegal immigrants, since the federal government is doing little about the problem. Granted this has been mostly small towns, but I believe this approach will spread. If the federal government will not do it's job, the authorities at the local level will take care of the problem themselves. The federal government will not stop them, because anyone who tries will look pro-illegal and lose many votes at election time.

Here are 6 reasons why I'm against illegal immigration in to the United States.
1.It's illegal.How can any responsible citizen support something that has the word illegal in it?
2.Illegal immigrants are responsible for more crime then native born Americans.
3.Some of them are members of violent street gangs like MS-13 from Central America.
4.It hurts poor native born Americans by lowering job wages.
5.I think that the pro-illeagl immigrant side & groups that support illegal immigration like MEChA & La Raza are also anti-White.
6.A lot of the illegal immigrants don't want to become Americans & don't assimilate.They just want the American money.They are usually proud Mexican nationals who just live in America & don't care about our laws or traditions.

It's a little embarrased to ask the question but I'm facing it. I just graduated in the US and now hold a H1 visa (in minnesota) and I'm trying to apply for a green card. My wife is here with me on H4 status. We haven't decided whether or not should we have a child now or should we wait for a few years later. However, our parents are anticipating their grand child and they heard the news that a new born baby in the US will automatically be a citizen of the US and could easily bring its parents greed cards. I don't know if this is true or just a rumor.

accordind to the center for immigration studies as written in the las vegas journel, that just in nevada (illegal mexicans)50.9% get atleast one program,43.8% get food assistance 30.8% get madicaid 1.4% get cash, (illegal latinos) 47.7% get atleast one program, 38.6% get food assistance,28.3% get medical. 1.6% get cash aid, considering this is just nevada, this is a ton of money that could go torwards feeding our legal citizens instead,, there are poor legal citizens going hungry because of not enough money and if these illegals were not here there would be ample,, and to those who support illegals you can get a 2nd job to pay out of your own pockets to offset the cost,and dont use the racist word because not wanting illegals here does not make someone a racist it only makes you name callers look like like fools because you resort to name calling because you have no well grounded argument, and the bottom line is this, they broke the law, they are criminals,

Why when we talk about U.S. law , the pro-illegals start yelling about the indians once living here. What does that have to do with these people breaking U.S. law ? Every country has dark areas in their past.

I tend to think it is hypocritical for them to make some of their statements, considering Mexico's past history.

Every where on answers it's "illegal mexican".Why?Why not illegal Honduranian or illegal Guatamalan Or illegal dominican republican?Does their latino skin color automatically label them as mexican?Isn't that a bit presumptuous?

What about those dark skinned Honduranians that look black or the Dominicans with dark skin?You'd see them on the street and never classify them.Because they don't fit the typical "mexican"look?Did you know there are white skinned mexicans also?Blonde hair and blue eyes.They could all be illegal,but they wouldn't be accused and put down soley by the way they look.But let a brown skinned woman with black hair stand in the food stamp line and there'd people go,calling her another government cheating illegal mexican.Or worse,a *******,which is what they are called where I live.It wouldn't matter if she was born here ,along with the last 5 generations of her family.She could have more american roots than you or I,but no one would care,cause she lokks mexican.Sad.

For anyone out there concerned about illegal immigration, particularly criminal illegals, this site is a must visit. It takes just a minute or two to fill out the form and you're good to go. Let them know what you're able to do (even if it's just a phone call!).


I felt the need to post this after the terrible deaths of American citizens over the past few weeks at the hands of illegals. Here are few of those that died needlessly due to our open border policies.


Zina Linnik-12 years old

Killed by an immigrant who was supposed to be deported on rape and incest charges. The Department of Homeland In-Security, led by none other than open borders cronie Michael Chertoff, was supposed to deport him but he 'was overlooked'.




Joycelyn Gardiner-22 years old

The University of Tennessee student was killed in a car accident by an illegal alien who was driving drunk. Turns out this illegal alien had been in jail several times and had been convicted of four crimes in Nashville, TN alone! Another illegal alien that should have been deported, but wasn't.






These are just a few stories among many in the past few weeks. How many more have to die needlessly before our borders are secured?


God bless them and their families.


Here is how you can help and ensure that the dozens of lives lost recently to criminal aliens is not in vain.
