It's true. We haven't gotten our T-day nor our Christmas pies for two years now. We'd get them at The Rock Springs Cafe Have you been there? It's just north of New River and south of Black Canyon City. The pies are the best I've ever eaten. I'm sorry your pie place has closed. I've never heard of them so I'm going to check them out on the web.

How did this happen. Look no further than the Democratic Party. They are at the root of nearly every problem we face here in the United States. The biggest mistake we made was the 1965 Immigration Reform Act. This set the stage of the change and transition of America from being the First world country in the world to being a banana republic. Demographics is destiny.

Has there been more than one wild mob in downtown Chicago?? We just moved from downtown Chicago to Sarasota because of the tax hike, but Chicago’s Mag Mile has always been fabulous.....sad.

Marie Callendar changed their pie recipie and removed not only the trans fats but the flavor.
California can't even make good pie anymore.

The overwhelming majority of legal immigrants allowed in under the 1965 act have done quite well. It’s the illegals who are causing the problem ~

You know, look this is a humanitarian you know, youre smart enough to see this . . . People, you know, if it continues, were going to start to see civil unrest in this country. I hate to say that, but I think its imminently possible. The ghoul Carville helped create this mess. He and his ilk sought Democrat votes; they now are coming to realize the full price of that desire. I hope he's at the front of the victim line.

You are a correct to a small degree. Illegal immigration is the biggest problem but legal immigration is a problem as well. You are wrong about the overwhelming majority of immigrants doing well. That won't stand up to the facts. Yes there are certainly success stories. But they don't constitute the overwhelming majority. We had a cap on immigration of about 200,000/year prior to 1965. This was a reasonable number. That was a number that could be assimilated. Now we are taking in close to 1 million per year. That's madness. We cannot assimilate this many people and it's tearing apart the social fiber of the country.
The 1965 act emphasized family reunification rather than our traditional immigration base. Prior to 1965 if you wanted to immigrate to the US you had to have a sponsor and show that you had the financial means not to be a burden to the US. That has been thrown out the window. Today huge numbers of legal immigrants are in fact a burden. Prior to 1965, this was NOT the case. Family Reunification and a lottery is just about the stupidest possible way to base your immigration system.

Let's see the data on "legal immigrants" who came here under the 1965 law ~ I live surrounded by such people and they are all doing well.
The "illegals" are not doing well.

We had a vastly superior immigration policy before 1965 than after. The numbers were reasonable and the requirements were more sound. We did a much better job of assimilation because those people who came wanted to assimilate.
Talk to the people in Minnesota who are struggling with the crime and the cultural conflict of the legal Somali Immigration. The same can be said of Maine as they struggle with Somali Immigration, again legal. Or perhaps talk to the people in Tennessee who have seen the number of Mosques explode with radical Muslims invading the area. Or you should go to Tyson's Corner in Northern Virgina and walk around and see all the women in full burkas. These immigrants who are transforming an area that use to be beautiful are nearly 100% legal.
And ask the families of the students killed at Virginia Tech by a Korean Immigrant. Do you think their lives have improved by this legal immigrant?
You really need to get out more or read more. You seem to be adding up all the credits and none of the debits. We had a much superior immigrant pool prior to 1965..
The 1965 Immigration Reform Act was the worst thing that ever happened to the United States.

Didn’t Chittum have something about that in his book? I wish he’d put out an updated (and better-edited; the whole “actually...” thing he did got old real quick) version of CWII.

I am now reading RADICAL IN CHIEF, BARACK OBAMA AND THE UNTOLD STORY OF AMERICAN SOCIALISM by Stanley Kurtz..It seems to be extremely well researched but is complex reading. I recommend it to anyone who wants to understand more about where we are in the slide downward. The war against our freedom has been a stealth war of “socialist ferment and activism” which has been able to fly under the radar with the help of a leftist media. We would be a fine country if we could break away from California and the North East, which are both figuratively and literally, the “fringe.”

The Somali crowd are coming as refugees ~ that’s a consideration separate and apart from “legal immigration”. Technically we can send refugees BACK, and probably should. We have a similar problem with Salvadorans, Nicaraguans and Guatemalans.

Tyson's Corner is a rather glitzy and expensive shopping center. That's where Washington's INTERNATIONAL SET SHOP.
I suppose you imagine the embassy folks, World Bank people, and military liaison types shopped over in Maryland or something.
No, they don't. Too many dangerous illegals over there.
I wouldn't be surprised at all to see women in burqas in Tyson's Corner.
It's safe and shortly will be accessible on Metrorail.

Cho came here when he was 8 with his family. None of the other family members were identified as having the same sort of disorder he had.
I wish we could identify the dangerously mentally ill before they do anything bad, but usually we can't ~ as yet.
Then we could ignore all their civil rights and lock 'em up right away. (Right?)
