We also need to get rid of the wheel, the printed word and fire. Then we can rename the country "Me Tarzan - You Jane."
You notice that, in this piece, the US is on trial here, because we only allow a million immigrants per year, instead of who knows how many this guy thinks would be the magic number.
Not on trial is Mexico, which bleeds people at the rate of 3/4 million a year, who walk, run, or crawl across some of the worst terrain in the world to get away from it, despite the fact that it is one of the biggest oil producers in the world, and an important manufacturing country in its own right. By rights it should be a net importer of manpower, and it will be if it ever gets its corruption and endemic criminality under control. Until then wave after wave of its people will be forced out, and this writer fails to find that noteworthy.
No, its just us under his magnifying glass. We open our doors to a million people a year, legally. All we ask is for the others to wait their turn. That makes us anti-immigrant racists, in this guy's universe.
Yup. It would be cheaper and less disruptive to just send every Mexican citizen a check for staying home.
You are absolutely right, which is why I'm removing the words "taxes, income tax, W2, SSI#, withholding, Internal Revenue Service, license(of any sort) and law(s) from my vocabulary.

I'm glad this came up.
Ever since that, "that depends on what the definition of "is" is.." episode, I have looked at our dictionary with a suspect eye.
I truly am glad that more and more, "that is not really what that word means..." folks are coming out of the closet.
Whew......
If they post a surety bond and promise not to use any of our services, conduct all affairs in English and leave their families at home, I might be pursuaded.
That's correct, since we all know the lefties' favorite Thomas Jefferson quote is "Dissent is the greatest form of patriotism"...except that it's not really a T.J. quote
It is beyond me why some people agree with those who can't even present a rational argument.
Time to call the Waaaahmbulance - another Libroid is having an anxiety attack.
"When the rats and the MSM stopped using the term illegal aliens and went first to undocumented immigrants and then to just immigrants, we lost the language war."
But the good news is this - the media have continued to lose their audience because of just the behavior you mentioned.
As the Hippy said, "KEWL, Man - their dogma ran over their karma".
Before you get flamed, are you a proponent of that tripe or are you, (as a conservative) merely bringing this trash to our collective attention?
Indeed. I wish Mr. Rodriquez would name that country so we can see if they'd be willing to train our Border Patrol.
Pretty rich coming from a guy with the surname of "Rodriguez." Last I heard Spain was a part of Europe.
This entire "law is only a narrative" argument is one of the tenets of the cryptomarxist "Critical Law" fashion and leads inescapably to the idea that law is only a reflection of oppressive power structures. The difficulty with that is that so is remediation. Rodriguez is trying an old leftist flimflam - he is quoting laws that do not even presently exist to judge a time when they couldn't have by standards he would like to apply to the present. Silliness.
(1) Where is the Barf Alert????
(2) Roberto Rodriguez of Madison, E-mail: XColumn@gmail.com writes: "There actually is an alternative, by way of the policies of the European Union, that would solve this crisis overnight. All workers from member nations are eligible to work in each others' countries, without losing their rights, citizenship or humanity."
Roberto Rodriguez is a lunatic, right up there with the other "It takes a Village" lunatics. Calling Rodney King... why can't we all get along???

Reduce Crime - Make more things legal.
Donde esta el Barf Alert?
Good Luck and write if you can!:)
