My God, you are a racist and proud of it aren't you?

Despite widespread and understandable concern about broken laws and large influxes of illegal residents, most people in the United States do not feel personally threatened and probably won’t unless a major terrorist attack here is traced south of the border. That possibility must be acknowledged. Recent trends paint the picture. In 2003 about forty thousand people other-than-Mexicans – “OTM” – were arrested along the border. Many were from the Middle East and Asia. Last year the number jumped to sixty-five thousand. Almost all were doubtless coming for the same enterprising reasons as the Mexicans. But it would be naive and irresponsible to pretend Al-Qaeda and other criminal organizations aren’t trying to squeeze through a few deadly agents.

You gotta love how the author validates the Minuteman Project in the last sentence. Too funny.

Please. The berlin wall was to keep people in against their will. The great wall of china was to keep invaders out.

But then again, logic really isn't your strong point.

>>The writer of this article is the racist.<<

That was very obvious when I got to "perform hard tasks most Americans would never consider doing."

Who does this fool think did all of these jobs before the massive invasion took place? His books should sell well in the EU but I certainly won't be buying any copies, not even second hand ones.

The Berlin wall was intended to keep people IN not out.

This has already been pointed out to Dane by several of us. He's not listening and he's not interested in debate, just bomb-throwing. But I admire you for trying nonetheless.

"And Mexican illegal aliens... will not cease coming in great numbers until opportunities improve at home."

Or until some real teeth are put into controlling the border.

He's a plagiaris, stealing talking points from Howie Dean and his ilk.

LOL, chucking hay bales for a dime a piece(included loading the wagon and stacking in the barn). It doesn't get a whole lot harder, dirtier and nastier than that, but it sure builds character and muscles on a 13 year old American boy.

I wish you would explain to those who have yet to see the light why the most ardent opponents of illegal immigration are Hispanic-Americans!

Not only that, but most LEGAL residents are pretty much opponents of illegal immigration. President Bush has been listening to the wrong people on this one. Sure there are Hispanic Advocates of the illegals but if you look at their stances on other issues, they favor the illegals because they are liberals, not because they are hispanic.

The girls noticed it too, the next year when school started.

That sounds like my mom! She and her friends pulled weeds and brush that grew between the RR tracks beside her town. This was during WW11, and many of the local men were gone in the service. However, they did have rest times; and she said they would lay down on the side somewhere, in the sun to get a suntan!

Yeah, it was hard to wash out that smell of dust on sweat.

I've never seen more snakes than haying, except for that scene in Raiders of the Lost Ark.

The volunteer sentinels, who are disrupting the real United States Border Patrol by setting off underground sensors and tramping more footprints in the sand, probably won’t make much news unless someone – one of them or the other guys – is killed or wounded.

They've made plenty of news and most of it embarrassing to this government who refuse to control the borders. And it's only just beginning.

Even the most ardent racists – and racism, more than national security, is fueling this demonstration – understand Mexicans would not come to the United States unless they were virtually assured of being hired by (usually white) employers seeking workers they can pay very little.

That's all i could stand. I am really sick of the race thrown in this issue.

Not to worry Mate! This "Clark" is God. Knows all, sees all! But to cowardly to tell all.

You definitely do not want to depend on Clark and his type if you ever need help of any kind!

There are over 600,000 illegal aliens incarcerated in U.S. prisons, costing the U.S. taxpayer almost $2 BILLION annually.

I think you're missing a "1" in there. The typical figure for cost of incarceration of a prison inmate is $20,000/year. 600,000 X $20,000 = $12 billion/year.
