If things keep going in this direction, I am ready to renounce all anti-French jokes.

I certainly do hope that the U.S. government is truly paying full attention to what France is presently doing about this ongoing problem and that the U.S. will also soon be doing the same kind of things here! Wake up pro-amnesty politicians!

I’ll believe it when I see it. Until then, I’m skeptical.
To: Cincinna
set a year-end goal of 125,000 arrests for alleged illegal entry or illegal residence
Wouldn't it be nice if we set those kinds of goals?

the tables might soon be turned and the French will be calling us wusses, maybe even ‘surrender yankees’. i don’t want to believe it could happen.

Where ever your at dude, take a bow, you called it months ago.

This is really good news. This means there’s hope for us, too. If the French can wake up and “get it”, maybe the idiot voters here will, too.

I want to move to France!
Well—— not really, but -——

Just got back from France and I was amazed that I felt safer in Paris then I do in my own city. They are not hung up on PC and want to keep the undesirables out of the city. That is why the low lifes are pushed to the suburbs.
We can learn some lessons from the French. They have pride and not riddled with white guilt.

I want one of those Presidents where can we get one?

Bought a bottle of Louis Jadot Beaujolais to celebrate.
Vive la France!

This story makes a very interesting contrast to a speech recently given by John McCain on the issue of illegal immigration. I still don’t get how McCain is still holding onto the lead spot or running in second with men like Romney or Thompson in the race.

Apparently, we have to order one from France.

The USA is the only country going in the opposite direction. Everyone else, including even Canada is tightening up their laws because they don't want to be overrun. Maybe in 20 years we can emigrate to the saner ones, if they'll take us refugees in.
New Zealand sounds inviting.
It is pretty pathetic, but then again I think we have a lot more corruption, and/or it's running deeper.

—Whod believe that France, has more sense than BUSH on this issue?
This is happening all over western Europe right now. My brother-in-law is Danish and Denmark in the past few years has instituted very strict immigration laws. A lot of folks in what we would consider very liberal countries are fed up with huge un-assimilated minorities leaching off of the social welfare system.—
Ralph Peters is right, he predicted this sort of European awakening back in 2003 (”Beyond Baghdad”). He was also wrong about the U.S. public embracing so-called comprehensive immigration reform.
