Leftists Plan 'Freedom Rides' to Abet Illegal Aliens

Insultingly attempting to evoke the Freedom Rides from the civil rights movement, thousands of self-appointed activists plan to crisscross the country in buses next month to support illegal aliens.

"The buses will stop at dozens of locations throughout the United States, including statehouses and cities with historic ties to the civil rights movement, before converging in Washington, D.C., on Oct. 1 to meet with congressional representatives. From there, people will travel to Queens Oct. 4, where they will be joined by thousands of New York City immigrants for a mass rally, organizers said," Newsday reported.

The blame-America-firsters are staging their little event to decry federal immigration policies. "In particular, the organizers said they want to call attention to the need [sic] for an amnesty for those illegally in the country," according to Newsday.

Hmm, it sounds as if what they really want is more Democrat voters:

"This is really about building political power," Pramila Jayapal, executive director of something called Hate Free Zone Campaign of Washington, admitted to the Seattle Post-Intelligencer. "The goals of labor and immigrant rights groups are the same."

Rep. Charlie Rangel, D-N.Y., claimed, "This is really the kickoff of a new civil rights movement, not for New York, not for labor, but for our country."

Democrat New York Assemblyman Brian McLaughlin had this to say: "It's not a magical event. It's a long-term struggle."

It's a much bigger long-term struggle to enforce U.S. laws and stop rewarding criminals.

"Rangel, D-N.Y., claimed, "This is really the kickoff of a new civil rights movement, not for New York, not for labor, but for our country."

So he's ready to kick the homies to the curb if he can be a race pimp for the hispanic lobby. He's not fit to represent anything at all, though I'd pay to see him represent himself in court.

When will things really boil over?

When will things really boil over?

Soon, I suspect..... starting in illegal alien-infested California.

Are you aware that the NEA is supporting this horde of lawbreaking vermin?

NEA supports Immigrant Workers Freedom Ride

8/1/03

The National Education Association is supporting the Immigrant Workers Freedom Ride this fall that organizers say will help draw a "new map for the road to citizenship" in the United States.

A key player in securing NEA's official endorsement of the effort, Los Angeles math coach and NEA member Andy Griggs knows that immigration reform is very much an education issue.

In his work at Shenandoah Elementary School with non-citizens and their kids, this veteran educator sees the strain of "parents holding down two or three jobs that nobody else wants at minimum wage," and the "emotional hardships" of families divided and "broken" by the nation's immigration bureaucracy.

Hardest of all for Griggs: the sight of a child in tears after a holiday visit to family members stranded in Mexico or Guatemala, or a new immigrant student who "breaks down" and "will not go into a classroom" out of fear of being separated from relatives.

That's why Griggs - co-chair of the Human Rights Committee of United Teachers Los Angeles (UTLA) and Pacific region coordinator of the NEA Peace and Justice Caucus - recently worked with Mary Ann Pacheco and David Hernandez of the NEA Hispanic Caucus to win NEA Representative Assembly support of the Immigrant Workers Freedom Ride (IWFR) on September 27-October 4.

Modeled after the Freedom Rides of the 1960s, which targeted racial bias in the interstate bus and train networks, the IWFR will focus the nation's attention on the subservient, second-class status of non-citizens and prod Congress to reform the nation's antiquated immigration laws.

IWFR buses packed predominantly with immigrants will depart from 10 major cities, stop for events in 80 towns, roll on to Washington, D.C. for a Lobby Day, and wind up at an October 4 mass rally in Queens, New York.

Among other objectives, IWFR organizers - including labor, civil rights, community, immigrant, and business groups - seek a "clear road to citizenship" for immigrant workers, the right of non-citizens to reunite their families, and the protection of immigrants' labor rights and civil liberties. Immigrant workers "need equal rights on the job and the right to organize unions - regardless of their immigration status," stresses IWFR spokesperson David Koff.

The Ride has gained some impressive supporters, including California's lieutenant governor and state Senate and the governor of New Jersey. Now IWFR organizers seek the backing of NEA members and affiliates - to endorse the IWFR, sponsor riders, organize local events, or make contributions.

The NEA is and has always been quite worthless. They should be cut off from receiving any tax bucks immediately. The leeches involved in this so-called "civil rights" scam should be shackled and quickly removed from the country without trial, IMO.

[sarasmom]

Sounds like fun!
Will they also post charts to prove that my property,health and auto insurance premiums have not increased due to their advocacy of illegal aliens criminal actions?
Or will they still pretend that "liberal" assinine actions have no adverse consequences?
Any chance they will invite the crime victims of their newly exhaulted protected class to talk about the consequences?

[Shermy]

Charlie Rangel working hard again to undermine the wage bargaining power of Americans, especially minority citizens and residents.

I wonder how much moolah the cheap labor looby is funneling to him.

[Missouri]

The goals of labor and immigrant rights groups are the same."

What B.S. ! I'm in a machinist union and I realize this only dilutes our wages. Like it or not, organized labor in this country has always been for very low immigration rates thus bringing wages up because of a smaller labor pool.

Our union bosses who go along with this are traitors.

[HadEnough]

Not too much longer to go..

See http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0929408179/002-6285909-2359260?vi=glance

[sauropod]

yep.

I keep looking in the trees for that smiling cat.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

"Freedom Rider" buses for "undocumented workers???"

"Thees ees my steenking land, too! Who cares eef I deedeen't go throo your steenking eemmeegration process first?!? Who geeves a sheet eef I rape your weemeen?!? Burn een hell, gringo!"

[HadEnough]

Wonder how long it will be before Representative Tancredo experiences some "tragic situation" in his life. Perhaps he should call Glenn Spencer of American Patrol and ask.

Don't get me wrong, I am an ARDENT fan.

However, with the rest of the Republicrats aligned for Cheap Voters and even Cheaper Laborers, Tancredo is walking around with a HUGE target on him.

Besides the traitorous Republicrats, he has to worry about these kind of traitors too..

Americans certainly seem to have a huge problem, and it didn't go away on January 20, 2001, did it.

[Khurkris]

As soon as that damn bus crosses a state line PULL IT OVER!

Check papers on everybody. If an illegal is found..ARREST THEM ALL ON RICO Statutes.

(its a good thing)

[Texas_Jarhead]

"NEA supports Immigrant Workers Freedom Ride"

Of course they do. More illegals mean more children. More children means more bloated education bureacracy. A more bloated education system means more teachers and more teachers means more members and more members means more $$$ and power. Simple.

[jimkress]

These are criminal acts. Why won't the citizens of the affected areas haul the people who do this into jail?

If you want to make a difference, then get off your duff and take action.

If all you want to do is whine, then go away and stop wasting FR bandwidth.

[concerned about politics]

They call them "illegal aliens" because they're here illegally. Why don't they come here according to law? Or do laws no longer matter? Good, I'll go rob a bank.
Ship their butts outta here, or let Democrats start an illegal support fund of their own. I want no part of supporting them when they have a country to go back to.

This is all for more social benificiaries, and therefore more Democrat votes. More people to live off the public troth the Republicans have to keep filling up for them. Anything to steal another mans wages.
They're green with envy of the Republicans and their success in life, so they want us punished. It's getting really old.

[concerned about politics]

We were members until they turned into a country club. Now, it's hard to tell what the NRA stands for.

[concerned about politics]

Sorry. LOL. Never mind. It's 1:40 a.m. here, but geeeeze, it's Friday night.

[El Conservador]

This makes us legal immigrants look bad...

If you wanna be here, follow the laws of the country that's gonna welcome you, for a change!!!

[Zetman]

I think this is great!! All the illegal aliens will be in one place at one time. Just have INS round them up at the rally. What could be easier??

[Finalapproach29er]

Arrest them. Get huge paddy wagons lined up with plenty of jail space.

[majordivit]

Of course, illegal aliens should all be rounded up and expelled immediately. There should be an emergency crash course program, all law enforcement, volunteers should get together and go block by block and track down any illegal alien because they are invading our country. They have no right to be here. There are many millions of illegal aliens here. All should be thrown out immediately in the worst way possible, not treated well. They should be thrown out brutally so they know never to come back. Soldiers should be put on the border with shoot to kill orders. Anybody coming acroos the border is invading this country. America has the right to defend herself. Someone comes into your country, you have a right to shoot them in self defense. You won't have to have signs in spanish warning them. Believe me, after the first five or six are killed, they will get the message, very, very quickly. You won't have to translate it.

[sarcasm]

Rep. Charlie Rangel, D-N.Y., claimed, "This is really the kickoff of a new civil rights movement, not for New York, not for labor, but for our country."

Why would a left-wing Democrat support amnesty for cultural conservatives who are natural Republicans?

[tkathy]

I hope that organized labor starts to wake up and realize that their livelihoods are at being destroyed by these people.

[dagnabbit]

We should take a break from bookstore events and Freep these traitors and invaders.

[nathanbedford]

FOLLOW THE MONEY

[sauropod]

Agreed. The Leftist filth is coming back to dee cee on 25 Oct.

[Kuksool]

So breaking US immigration laws is a now civil right. Liberals have no shame.

[FITZ]

Like it or not, organized labor in this country has always been for very low immigration rates thus bringing wages up because of a smaller labor pool.

It's interesting because Cesar Chavez and the early UFW union was very much opposed to illegal immigration and even went to the border in an attempt to stop immigrants being brought in for the purpose of keeping wages very low.

[HiTech RedNeck]

Our union bosses who go along with this are traitors.

How about the mealy mouthedness of our Fedguv? If they'd put half the fire and brimstone into this that they do into medpot, it would be a vast improvement.

[INSENSITIVE GUY]

This is a damned outrage,just who the hell do these people think they are?Anyone who helps this illegal trash is no longer an American.These people should be charged with a crime and paraded on national television so that they can be subject to public ridicule.

[jmc813]

Unfortunately, I can think of some FReepers who would be interested in participating in this.

[DumpsterDiver]

pinging for later reading

[F.J. Mitchell]

So some have grown impatient with the lightening speed at which the destruction of America is progressing and are seeking ways to accelerate the proccess? Any vocal expression of fear for the survival of our country, is instantly branded as hate speech by the very ones who threaten her survival.

[Gritty]

Liberals have no shame.

Most whores have more shame and morals than they do!

Try stopping illegals at the border today you get throw in jail.
