Imigration protests today

Illegal Immigrants Poem

I cross border, poor and broke, Take bus, see employment folk.

Nice man treat me good in there, Say I need to see welfare.

Welfare say, "You come no more, We send cash right to your door."

Welfare checks, they make you wealthy, Medicaid it keep you healthy!

By and by, I got plenty money, Thanks to you, American dummy.

Write to friends in motherland, Tell them 'come fast as you can.'

They come in turbans and Ford trucks, I buy big house with welfare bucks

They come here, we live together, More welfare checks, it gets better!

Fourteen families, they moving in, But neighbor's patience wearing thin.

Finally, white guy moves away, Now I buy his house, and then I say, "Find more aliens for house to rent." And in the yard I put a tent.

Send for family they just trash, But they, too, draw the welfare cash!

Everything is very good, And soon we own the neighborhood.

We have hobby -- it's called breeding, Welfare pay for baby feeding.

Kids need dentist? Wife need pills? We get free! We got no bills!

American crazy! He pay all year, To keep welfare running here.

We think America darn good place! Too darn good for the white man race.

If they no like us, they can scram, Got lots of room in Pakistan.

Another BTW, my anger about illegal immigration is not racially based or anti-Mexican. It is pro-USA.
My father-in-law is Hispanic and immigrated from Mexico LEGALLY.
My mother-in-law immigrated to the US from Russia, through China then here. LEGALLY. Both are US citizens.
My wife is half mexican and two children (who are the best kids in the whole world as far as their daddy is concerned) are 1/4 Mexican by heritage.
Nope, it isn't against Mexico or Mexicans. It is pro-USA.
I love this country and would like to see it stay the USA. If I wanted to live in Mexico I would apply for a visa and move there, but I don't.

I have been to many places in Mexico, From Tijuana to Acapulco, from Juarez to Mexico city. Nice places to visit, but I do not want to live there.
Obviously neither do the immigrants. But if they want to come here instead, they should have to do it LEGALLY!

Illegal immigrants don't get welfare.

Anyone esle see the irony here?

Students from high schools in the Los Angeles area march after walking out of class Monday, as immigrant supporters continued nearly a week of street protests.

[Rick Lee]

Any student who walked out of my class would fail the course automatically. Why do people get away with this? I never did.

I was witness to a protest this morning on Highland and Melrose. First warning was a hovering LAPD helicopter. Then, a swarm of squad cars. Finally, a riff-raffish wave of angry young Latinos carrying banners and shouting “La Raza!” For those not in the know, “La Raza” is the term for a Mexican Zionist movement which seeks the “re-conquest” of California and the entire Southwest in the name of Mexico. I noticed these youths were all dressed in hip fashion, looked very well nourished, and, to a glowering boy and girl, flashed cell phones. I was watching this from a tire store with two fellow customers, an Asian and a black, and the Middle-Eastern store manager. Each of us reacted with similar disgust to the spectacle of audacious insult. The black man tried to engage some of the kids, but none was interested. As we watched, two of the kids casually stole the tire store's balloons. The offended manager gave chase but when he caught the two kids, they let go the balloons, laughing in his face. “La Raza”!

And you'd be promptly sued and probably fired. Welcome to 2006.

The media seem to be whitewashing these uncomfortable realities. Where is the coverage of the sea of Mexican flags in their coverage?...I love how the left activist media (read "the top organizations") spin their coverage, intentionally deceiving to push their agenda forward.

Typical leftists.

I think you may be confusing La Raza with Aztlan. The latter is a promotion of 'brotherhood' often spun into a paranoid fantasy of "Mexican takeover" by white separatist groups. La Raza is just a rallying cry for protests like those of the UFW.

"La Raza" means "the race"...It suggests racial superiority.

[Mulhollanddose]

Umm, excuse me Mr. Mexican illegal?...You do know Bush is on your side, don't you?...Of course not, you have been lied to and filled with hate by the Democrats and other more extreme socialists.

[rrpjr]

And the full slogan: Por la Raza todo. Fuera de la Raza nada (“For our race everything. For those outside our race, nothing.).

Well it is rather obvious that you do not work for the left media.

Yes, it can have multiple meanings -- more and less militant -- by different groups. But the word is, in all cases, essentially separatist. And "La Raza" is increasingly used as shorthand not only for Moviemento Estudiantil Chicana de Aztlan, known as "MEChA," or "Aztlan," but to La Raza Unida, which sees itself as a Palestine state within America, destined to one day reclaim itws own native land.

As to its sense of "brotherhood", no spin or paranoia is required to understand the calls for "physical liberation" and "secession," for “a people from a bronze culture,” dispossessed by the “brutal ‘gringo’”. And to their claim that “Aztlan belongs to those who plant the seeds, water the fields, and gather the crops and not to foreign Europeans." That is, "we do not recognize capricious frontiers on the bronze continent.” These protestors are well-represented in the current goings-on.

Can someone from Cali tell me how an illegal immigrant gets to send their kids to a public school? I guess if the kid is born here, hence a citizen thats one way. But what about the kids that aren't citizens?

[sammyg2]

Any kid in California is entitled to go to school, illegal or not.
A family can sneak across the border on Monday and their kids can be in public school on Tuesday, paid for by the rest of us. The schools are required to teach them in spanish if they do not speak english.

Several years ago the voters in California passed a bill that would make it illegal for an undocumented alien to go to public school or to be eligible for public assistance, but the bleeding heart liberal judges on the California supreme court ruled it as unconstitutional.

Villarigosa (Mayor of Los Angeles) is a member of a racist Mexican group called 'MEChA'. Listen or read his speech scaring and inciting the Mexican youth with rhetoric founded in liberal lies and you will get one piece to the puzzle. Mexican illegals get free school and just about everything else our Democrat inspired welfare state allows to those whom vote Democrat (in fact if they begin filing taxes they lose many privileges)...Illegals and poverty are the Democrat garden, they fertilize it with the money of the productive, and grow dependence and therefore votes.

Feinstein has a new plan, on the eve of the manufactured illegal alien rallies in Los Angeles. She wants something like 1.5 million more farm workers...That is her goal and stated policy. Surely she is just jumping on the white horse of political grandstanding, but it seems insulting to the Mexican people...Doesn't she know they are exploited by the capitalists they work for?...Doesn't she know they get paid slave wages?...Feinswine is a hypocrite and a liar.

It is the Democrats who are promoting slave labor. It is the Democrats that are constructing a state where the illegals are enslaved and the hard working are enslaved to pay for the indigent.
