Immigration - September 2007

Over the course of the last year, many innocent people have been killed at the hands of illegal aliens who believe they can come to our country, live here and do whatever they please. Obviously, this applies to only a small percent of the illegal population, but most of these crimes are done in "sanctuary cities," cities with governments who do not report illegal criminals.
Just this past week, a good hardworking Phoenix police officer with a wife and kids tried to stop an illegal alien with a revolver from getting to a schoolyard full of children. He was shot and killed. This criminal I believe had a record.
The solution to this problem is simple: If a criminal who is illegally here is found to be such by the police, ICE is to be alerted within 48 hours, and the criminals name will be entered into a data base, so that if he comes back here again (because clearly we can't secure our own borders), cities know about him. Am I right?

i am so tired of the people who say that illegal immigrants are coming to this country to take our jobs, kill us , blah blah blah.
and then for them to have the balls and guts to say that race will never be an issue is just to stupid. my parents came to this country to give me a better life.and i take that very much into consideration thank lord im an american citizen so that i could have my voice heard.

americans stop complaining, immigrants are not here to take your jobs.most americans are going to work from 9 to 5 and thats it.immigrants work from 4 in the morning to 10 in the night nonstop.i know that it is possible to get permission all the way from mexico to be able to migrate to the u.s. but u have to realize that THEY HAVE NO MONEY!

why could they not debate? i have my email address availible in my profile... this is the third notice i received today. a person which i would not bother to name always post activities about criminal illegal aliens. i simply told him if he wanted to play the race card he could look at jeffery dahmer, ted bundy, adolf hitler, and charles manson. was this so wrong as to report me? and if it is, can you enlighten me why? i thought it was a logical answer....

From Wikipedia Mexico article: "Mexico is home of the largest number of U.S. citizens abroad (estimated at one million as of 1999),[41] which represents 1% of the Mexican population and 25% of all U.S. citizens abroad." Check this link: http://www.aca.ch/amabroad.pdf
Does this change a little your perspective about Mexicans living in the USA?

Mostly the pro illegals and anti-american ones. If you want to get a point out especially if you are NOT even from this country, then don't insult. I really resent that because I'm American and am certainly NOT lazy. I come from generations of coal miners. You want to talk about hard work, go read about this type of labor and how hard those immigrants had it. Shame on you all for coming here and talking nonsense!!!

Could they use the same resources that taxpayers provide for illegals for this purpose?

New York Governor Eliott Spitzer announced that New York State is going to make it easy for illegal aliens to get valid New York State driver's licenses. WHY? Does moveon own him too? Is that going to make them better drivers? Why on Earth do you want to make it easier for someone who came into this Country illegally and flaunted our laws already, to get a driver's license? This has got to be one of the stupidest things I've ever heard. Could it be that the whole state jumped the shark? First they elect Lucky Chuckie Schumer to the Senate. Then they follow that blunder by electing Hillary Clinton to the other Senate seat. Now they have a Governor who's obviously undergone a lobotomy or something worse. What's next? Are they going to let Armpitimijhad lay his memorial wreath to the 19 hijackers at Ground Zero and spit on the flag?

So USA, bought part of Mexico (illegaly), it does not mean that Mexicans do not have any rights on THEIR land and I am talking about Mexicans and not about the Government. If you don't like all our Mexican guest.....You can head back to Europe anytime.

Vigil for slain officer attended by undocumented immigrants
Erin Zlomek
The Arizona Republic
Sept. 20, 2007 09:29 PM

Fearing a backlash against the Latino community, recent immigrant Sandra Arizmendiz clutched a lit candle in one hand and passed out black ribbons with another at candlelit vigil for slain officer Nick Erfle Tuesday night.

Erfle, a 33-year old, eight-year police veteran, was shot and killed by 22-year old Erik Jovani Martinez, an undocumented immigrant, Tuesday morning.

"We want to remind all of Arizona and the nation that this crime had nothing to do with the legal status of that person, but rather his criminal intentions," said Phoenix resident and CEO of Immigrants Without Borders Elias Bermudez.





About 40 members of the Latino community came to the ceremony and laid Virgin de Guadalupe candles, flowers and hand written notes on top of a makeshift memorial near Thomas Road and Pinchot Avenue were Erfle was killed.

"This is not for resistance, this is for humanity," Arizmendiz said.

Tuesday morning Arizmendiz called into the radio show The Voice of the Immigrant hosted by Bermudez, and asked Latinos and undocumented immigrants to attend the evening's vigil in support of Erfle's family.

"We are here to show that we do not agree with this criminal activity . . . and to send a message to parents to talk to their kids," said Chilean immigrant and Mesa resident Magdalena Schwartz.

"Undocumented children in schools and colleges have hopes and dreams too. We can prevent this kind of crime if we talk to our kids especially when they are in Junior High . . . remind yourself why you brought them here to this country."

Even if they are refering to other Americans. Like its a mentality of "Us against They".

I have a white friend in Dallas who used the words" these or those people" but in a mocking way. The whites posting here are not joking when this words are used.

Sacramento Co. Dr. Gene Rogers knew what they had come to do, and why they were doing it. As the medical director for Sacramento County's Indigent Services program for the better part of the past decade, Dr. Rogers has waged a long fight against the central California county's practice of providing non-emergency medical care to illegal immigrants — a policy he says violates federal law and results in the poorest American citizens being denied the care they deserve. http://washingtontimes.com/article/20070827/EDITORIAL/108270019/1013/editorial

I've been on Yahoo answers since April and just noticed there are two American flags at the bottom of the page. One for English and one for Spanish. Beyond what I've already done, (sent numerous letters, emails, and faxes to my elected officials.) I can't think of a better way to show my displeasure, than to get a satisfactory answer from Yahoo as to their choice to do this. If I don't get one, I will be canceling all my Yahoo related accounts. What do you think about the bilingual American flag?
