Immigrant-rights advocate faces possible deportation

For the past two years, Milagros Jimenez has been a leading advocate for the rights of illegal immigrants in the Twin Cities area. But today she is behind bars as an illegal immigrant herself, facing possible deportation to her native Peru.

[sarcasm]

Twiss said that Isaiah is willing to help Jimenez secure permanent U.S. residency, and would testify that she is a highly trained employee who would be hard to replace.

Just another job Americans won't do - advocate for illegal aliens.

A step in the right direction.

Well I certainly hope you enjoy living in the third world nation that all these illegals are turning the US into.

It's BS only because the laws are not followed. We have every right to protect our borders. Or do you think that's racist?

It looks to me as if this woman has committed a couple of crimes - she entered a sovereign nation without that nation's permission and she purposely fled when a judge of that nation pronounced sentence on her first crime. Deport her and deport her fast.

Seems to me she's just another scammer who was ordered deported. I would say deport her ASAP. We are not the flop house for South America.

This makes my little heart go pitter-patter, pitter-patter with joy. Now lets get the rest of them!!

what they should do now is throw a net over all the ones who protest her deportation and send them with her

Not so fast. If this wretch has been aiding and abetting illegal aliens she owes us some license plates. About 30 years worth. Works for me.

Thanks for the link. I wonder if they will apply any of it to Tyson Farms Chicken?

It can't be considered racist because the United States has a considerably large non-white population. If a majority of Mexican-Americans want the United States to close it's border with Mexico to keep out Mexican illegal aliens, can that be considered racist?
