"Imelda Lopez said she didn't get a chance to speak with her husband before he was deported to Mexico."
"There was no chance," to talk, she said while carrying a sign reading 'No Human Being is Illegal."

Aw,
Gee,
Now I feel all bad about regurtitating criminal elements to whence they came...
of course, imelda could talk to hubby all she wanted to - back in Aztlan del sur.

What's with this "no human being is illegal crap?
Illegal is a conscious act, not a guiltless act of nature.

Le them go ahead and make SA a "sanctuary" -- on the condition that a 500-mile wide zone on our side of the border be declared a "free fire zone" for one full year first...

Happy San Jacinto Day! (Note tagline...)

I demand that we treat illegal Mexican immigrants the same way Mexico treats LEGAL American immigrants. In other words, local governments of Austin, San Antonio, et al. be careful, we Americans are waking up to the nonsense that is being demanded of us.

"I think the border is kind of an artificial barrier," west side councilwoman Patti Radle said.

As does our President according to his words and deeds.

However, if the raids & deportatins continue and if the arrests & indictments of criminal business owners (with eventual convictions) continues week, months & years from now, perhaps my opinion of Bush & Company will begin to change.

Dont fall for the smokescreen. It will only embolden Bush to push for more of what he wants. IE an even more open border than what he can achieve at the moment.
