Yes. He called us cockroaches. His first act as congressman was to undermine our efforts. He is an agent of Mexico, plain and simple.
I told the Tucson Citizen reporter the following (and he said he would not print it - coward):
Rep. Grijalva implies that we who want the border laws enforced are "racists". Who is the racist?Grijalva was a member of the La Raza Unida Party before he bacame a Democrat.
Grijalva celebrates Dia de La Raza
Grijalva's candidacy was supported by The National Council of La RazaLa Raza means, "The Race". Who is the racist here?
I didn't have time to mention that Grijalva is a former member of Movimiento Estudiantil Chicano de Aztlan (MEChA). Here's what they are all about in their own words.
In the spirit of a new people that is conscious not only of its proud historical heritage but also of the brutal "gringo" invasion of our territories, we, the Chicano inhabitants and civilizers of the northern land of Aztlán from whence came our forefathers, reclaiming the land of their birth and consecrating the determination of our people of the sun, declare that the call of our blood is our power, our responsibility, and our inevitable destiny.We are free and sovereign to determine those tasks which are justly called for by our house, our land, the sweat of our brows, and by our hearts. Aztlán belongs to those who plant the seeds, water the fields, and gather the crops and not to the foreign Europeans. We do not recognize capricious frontiers on the bronze continent.
Brotherhood unites us, and love for our brothers makes us a people whose time has come and who struggles against the foreigner "gabacho" who exploits our riches and destroys our culture. With our heart in our hands and our hands in the soil, we declare the independence of our mestizo nation. We are a bronze people with a bronze culture. Before the world, before all of North America, before all our brothers in the bronze continent, we are a nation, we are a union of free pueblos, we are Aztlán.
For La Raza to do. Fuera de La Raza nada. [Translation: Outside the Race nothing]
See the entire racist, seditious manifesto of MEChA right here. Cringe as you learn that there is a MEChA chapter at almost every university and college in the United States. Register shock as you realize that this is the constitution of MEChA.
Does Grijalva renounce his former membership in MEChA? No. In fact, he spoke at a MEChA event in 1997.
Who, exactly, does Grijalva represent? Who is the racist cockroach?
