**Loudoun (County) Approves Measure Targeting Illegal Immigrants**(VIRGINIA)
Washington Post (excerpt) ^ | 17 July 2007 | Washington Post (excerpt)

Posted on 07/17/2007 11:35:03 PM PDT by AmericanInTokyo

The Loudoun County Board of Supervisors approved a resolution yesterday that would limit illegal immigrants' access to county services and penalize employers who hire them, becoming the second county in the region to adopt a hard-line position in the wake of Congress's failure to enact immigration reform.

One week after Prince William County (VA) officials took a similar step...

Washington Post propaganda deceit: “...becoming the second county in the region to adopt a hard-line position in the wake of Congress’s failure to enact immigration reform.”

Translation into English: “becoming the second county in the region to adopt a hard-line position in the wake of Congress’s failure to ENFORCE SIMPLE LAWS.”

I know. I know. They're full of crap.

But we are starting to WIN.

And that's all that is important!

PS, check out this little excerpt-ette from the same story...

"Supporters of the resolution say the illegal immigrants' presence can be felt most acutely in the eastern part of the county, where they say crowded homes are falling into disrepair and gang violence is rising. Last year, the sheriff's office arrested nearly 50 people who were later deported because of their legal status. Some believe the problem will worsen if Prince William goes forward with its plan and ends up pushing illegal immigrants over its northern border into Loudoun. "I think this is the first step of Virginians taking back their state," said Joseph W. Budzinski, spokesman for Help Save Loudoun, a group that opposes illegal immigration. "

Love the ominous “targeting” language in the headline, too.

You can just imagine the hillbillies laughing and brandishing their guns at the see-ment pond as they drafted this legislation.

Little did I know, but on the same day, their sheriff in Loudoun County also officially approved the County going ahead and participating in the ICE 287(g) program to round up illegal aliens on the local level and ship them off to the Feds for deportation. Wow!!

The Dulles toll road provides a direct route to DC. Let the Feds take care of ‘em. Loudon and Prince William are the last bastions of conservative thought in the Peoples’ Republic of Northern Virginia.

I get your point but, Congress doesn’t enforce Law, that’d be the WH. Just saying...Blackbird.

And all the rest of the counties in the Commonwealth. We could sure use some of this vision here on the Eastern shore :)

Culpeper County will probably be the next one to pass this legislation.

Where will they go? Maryland? North Carolina?

I hope back to Mexico, Korea, China, Germany, wherever all those with illegal status came from!!

I wonder if the ACLU is starting to realize that they don’t have enough time, money, and people to go after every city, county, and state that passes laws against illegals.

I wish they would help people like Gilmer Hernandez, a US citizen in prison, instead of always taking the side of illegals.

Nah, Spotsy is on the short list too of counties to pass this legislation. Looks like Fauquier and Rappahanock need to get on the ball or they will become the epicenter of where illegals can live. Let the liberals in Alex and Arlington deal with them. The liberals are the ones that supposedly ‘feeeeel’ so bad for the illegals and think we in the US should welcome them with open arms. Let’s see what they think when the area becomes the only place for housing

Where will they go? WV probably, clogging up the roads every day from VA to there. Maybe MD, but to be honest, I'm just not that worried about where a bunch of illegals will lay their heads. Maybe, just maybe, they will start getting the message that it doesn't pay to break the law.

But I just might be too damn hopeful too.
