ha ha ha. I was just talking with my buddy about how all these poo butt central Amerian countries always arm themselves with .308s

FYI, poo butt means wanna-be, in case anyone is wondering...

Well if there is one thing I've learned, it's that the best thing to do when faced with something you disagree with is not to fight it, it is to just pack up and leave. At least thats what endless people on FR love to say they did...

PS... LA IS STEALING OUR WATER!!!

[Dan De Quille]

Nineteenth century nativists erred in believing that America could not assimilate large numbers of Catholics, Jews, Eastern, Central and Southern Europeans who were willing to eventually meld with the broader culture.

An exellent point to bring up. This error is the root cause of the complacency that characterizes the "we are a nation of immigrants" crowd; to them, immigration restrictionists appear to be cousins of The Boy Who Cried Wolf.

but over the years and especialy over the last decade you run into more and more drunken pentahoes out there and even more dangerous individuals.

That's a lot of the problem. Immigration from Mexico wasn't in very high numbers until the 80s and the majority were decent enough people, and they were careful too because they were here illegally and didn't want to be deported. When over 2 million came in to get in on that 86 amnesty, things began to change, many criminals and welfare seekers came over to get in on that and it's been down hill since. Everyone should look at the kind of crimes being committed in Mexico now and decide how many of those types we want ---some cities in Mexico have murder rates 8 times that of Washington DC.

"[W]hen the time comes, Patriots will step up to the plate..."

Getting tougher with every passing day while all levels of Gov'ment keep on inexplicably stacking the deck, aided and abetted by their PR machination -- the Media, and the "Education" and "Law" industries...

It appears we are approaching the "seventh inning stretch" my friend.

The Third World is coming to America.

With an American government escort.

[WRhine]

The Third World is coming to America.

When even after the horrors of 9/11 our president continues to allow immigration from terrorist nations and acts as a lowly servant to Vicente Fox, further disgracing America, yeah, it's a done deal.

This thing is way too long to read except for a cold, winter night when you just want to stay indoors. But the question is not do you want it, but can you stop it?

Why do you think I just moved out of California? Liberals think their ways are best and look at what they are doing to California.

[Dutchy]

Thanks for the ping Lowb.....

[M 91 u2 K]

we can stop it if we want too. But the only solution i see is taking it to the street and eliminating those liberals. You cant negotiate with liberals, they are evil, they are the anti-christ and need to be destroyed. I hope i dont sound like some right-wing nut!!!

[EBUCK]

Thanks for the ping but I'm already here. See post #19.

Keep me on your list tho.. I like it when folks think I need to see somthing.

Thanks again,
EBUCK

Whadd they mean, "Do we want Mexifornia"????

HA!!
We GOT Mexifornia.

I mean, what more would it take to make it, "official"??

:o)

[conserve-it]

I dunno. Tens of thousands of signs written in English have been replaced with spanish. Maybe Bush could hold a ceremony and give Vicente Fox a key to the STATE !!

[CIBvet]

De0port the damn Illegal Wetbacks of ALL flavors.

[PRND21]

I hope i dont sound like some right-wing nut!!!

Don't worry, newbie...we know better.

[CIBvet]

Stop worrying about what 'they' think of you.

I heard a guy say once, and and after I thought about it a bit, it made alot of sense ... "What you think of me is none of my business. What I think of me, now that is my business."

We have GOT to stop being timid, and stand up and speak out with our truth. We can no longer afford to be silent ... nothing less than our country is at stake, against these loud-mouthed dope-smokin', liberal, socialist, Marxist-communists.

FR is a great resource to get your guns loaded.

Welcome to the line, and thanks for the interesting article.

Here's one Victor David Hanson piece the little Ohio carpetbagger will never mention on his radio show. Or if he does, he'll give it one second of airtime.

[Dante3]

Some of our politicians sure do!
