'You Don't Speak for Me,' Legal Hispanic Immigrants Shout

The members of my church who jumped through hoops, filled out tons of papers, waited years and paid big bucks to legally immigrate from Slovakia, feel the same way.

And your President and the Senate want to shaft them for their obeying the law and REWARD THE CRIMINAL LAWBREAKERS with amnesty. Send your "thank you" notes to the corrupt pols in Washington.

Look for this opposing view to be pretty much ignored. What attention is given will be denigration of the participants; probably portrayed as traitors to the Hispanic population or some such.

[Leatherneck_MT]

All good TRUE Americans, no matter where their family came from, should be shouting the very same thing.

Black, White, Asian, Latino, American Indian, doesn't matter.

[Jerez2]

This group needs to be out there counter-protesting the next time the illegals hold a march.

The pols think we will go away and forget this.
Status quo is not good enough (although it IS better than that stupid bill the Senate came up with!).

Don't stop calling your congressmen, and keep supporting the ones who are championing a more sensible approach to immigration law. I just called Rep. Boehner's office yesterday to thank him for the "immigration town hall' meetings he is holding all over the country.

I'll bet a dollar to a donut that if the drive-by media (credit Rush) would investigate they (the drive-by media) would find the well funded illegal's lobbies, supporting this invasion, are being funded under the table with moose money.

I have a friend from Romania that feels the same. She's been here since 1995 and is STILL trying to become a legal citizen. She's worked here, gone to school here and found a husband. You wouldn't believe the hoops they have sent her through - but she keeps trucking. I would be ticked off if I had had to work that hard and millions were sent ahead of me.

These guys really get it...........it is not about accepting race, it is about tolerating criminals!

"These guys really get it...........it is not about accepting race, it is about tolerating criminals!"

Another point that they get is that the illegals take away jobs that American mexicans want.

[Marine Inspector]

The vast majority of legal immigrants don't like illegal immigrants. Something the MSM does not want you to know!

[rlmorel]

No kidding. Why the heck SHOULD they like them? I get pissed when I follow the rules and see others circumventing them with no reservations. Cutting lines of people/cars and so on.

I was on a cruise ship recently, and they had parts of the deck roped off due to high winds. People just cut under the ropes and went onto the deck. Ships crew had to repeatedly ask people to leave. I wanted to go up there, but I figured if they thought they had a good reason to put the restriction there, I would respect that, no questions asked. It's just the way I am.

And the Libs are doing a good job of painting as a racist anyone who sees this "amnesty" as a bad thing.

Back then we actually thought we could cut our losses by giving up California; now the rest of us are elbow to elbow.

MORE and MORE LEGAL resident aliens and naturalized citizens have to speak out against this outrage.

Most American citizens have been too castrated for too long by the demons of political correctness and bogus racial bogeymen to speak out.

Besides, the injustice of it all becomes more apparent when spoken from the mouths of people who took the time, effort, and money to come here LEGALLY, as did the ancestors of the overwhelming number of American citizens today.

"This group needs to be out there counter-protesting the next time the illegals hold a march. "

They, and any other able bodied groups with the guts to face down the illegals. Their organizers keep bragging about how their marches are so peaceful. I guess it's not an issue if you're not opposed. My guess is if there were counter protesters out there, all hell would break loose.

And the Libs are doing a good job of painting as a racist anyone who sees this "amnesty" as a bad thing.

Not only that, they keep insising that (their particular brand of) "immigration" and referring to those who "just want to come here to work" is "a victimless crime."

I call B.S. and refer to my latest tagline.

[Smartass]

Lest we ever forget.
You are so right, and may I add on illegal aliens:
* Having no regard for American rule of law;
* Illegaly on American soil;
* Using forged documents;
* Multiple aliases;
* Multiple birth certificates;
* Multiple Social Security Cards;
* Multiple Driver licenses;
* Driving with no car insurance;
* Working in a tax-less underground economy;
* Being a party to smuggling human beings;
* Smuggling arms;
* Smuggling prostitutes;
* Smuggling drugs;
* Marching through America with Mexican flags,
    over the American flag;
* Glorifying old communist leaders;
* Being led by communist organizations.
I may have missed some items, but nevertheless, all of
the above are not victimless crimes, IMO.

I fully support organizations like LaRaza in meeting their ends...

...drive-by media (credit Rush)

With all due respect to Rush, the term "hit and run media" makes much more sense.

Yes, drive-by connotates a gang who sprays the area with bullets, and then leaves, but to some it also confers the idea of a vehicle which simply 'drives by' looking at the situation.
