Great insight!
[snip]Why do you betray your people?’, someone recently asked me. Just because we are of the same color does not make us a common people.
Since the day I was born, I have been an American. Who I am, what I have, and what I have done with my life, I owe it all to this country I call home: America.
Mexico has never been there for its people, and even less for an American like me.
Excellent! MSM only wants to hear from those carrying Mexican flags, shouting threats, boycotting, and illegals.

Retorts Jimmy "Really! I don't recall the Commonwealth of Virginia coming by to offer me a spare titty when my wife died and I had a newborn to raise!"
Here is a promising rising star that the GOP needs to promote! Regarding the phony charge that all latinos will be targets of this law.......
He shouldnt worry says Steve Montenegro, himself an immigrant from El Salvador and now a member of the State Legislature. Montenegro voted for the controversial immigration law which he says opponents are distorting. That it is a race issue, anti-Hispanic and anti-immigrant bill, Montenegro said. It couldnt be farther from the truth.
What the bill does he says is give police another tool to fight crime that comes with the flood across the border.
Its going crazy here, Montenegro said. And the federal government time and again failed tremendously to protect its citizens and secure the border.

Amen.
Awesome!!!
It points out that real immigration should be slow and controlled with intense pressure to assimilate.
It also means that entitlements like affirmative action for hispanics should not exist, because justifiable resentment against an undeserving foreign populace is the result. They should have to prove themselves worthy citizens like everyone else, especially considering our history and utterly different values.
The 'immigration system' is broken, but we all know why: no enforcement, no assimilation, and Mexican irredentism.
"Fixing it" does not mean amnesty.
He sounds impressive.
Amen to that!
...and nothing but an American...no divided allegiance here...We have room for but one flag, the American flag... We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language...and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people. ~ President Teddy Roosevelt, 1919
Legal immigrants who want to call the US home, do not have to be pressured into getting them or their offspring to assimilate. They willing do so. They also want to learn English and use it on a daily basis.
Contrast this to economic refugees, the vast majority of whom come from Latin America, who believe they are owed and believe THEY should be the ones to be catered to.
Good article, Aunt B.
When the politicians including the top starting being arrested and prosecuted and go to jail; things will change in a big hurry.
Mexican LEGAL immigrants:outraged over amnesty for ILLEGALS (be sure to see videos)

Mexico sold us their oil, lots of it. Now that their production rates for oil is declining, they are looked at in a different light.
Mexico is a leech on the United States and She knows it.Friends don’t do what Mexico has been doing to the United States for the last 30 plus years and that is stealing our resources.
I hope our next conservative President calls a spade a spade and refuses to call Mexico a Friend.
Great post, AuntB! And in California, you can add to the list that the majority of inmates in our prisons are illegal, and the millions upon millions of untaxed dollars that leave the state and go to Mexico.
Our community hospitals are broke, most have shut down from bankruptcy. Our social services are overwhelmed by illegals with anchor babies, and no means of support other than public assistance.
There’s a huge exodus from California of the taxpaying middle class, along with overtaxed and overregulated employers.
We’ve already reached critcal mass, and only the most self deluded and pointy headed liberal politician thinks catering to the illegal population will tie up Hispanic votes. Your post proves otherwise! Thank you!
Very well stated.
OTOH, Mexico will always be glad to give you a case of 'Montezuma's revenge'. ;-)
