I wish I could have seen this. It’s about time our side started pushing back.
Citizens have the right to have our laws respected and enforced.
Fraudulently documented foreigners have the right to be deported.
. In Spanish
. Let that roll around...a townhall in Los Angeles is conducted in Spanish, by two alleged American Congressmen.
They must have hated hearing the words "USA!".
Good. Let it ring in their ears.
awesome. Bet Guitterez didn’t see that coming!
What ,Luis never whipped out his toolkit and found some card for the situation , LOL
They should have chanted “A essay ah” - ie ESA in Spanish. ESA Estados Unidos de America.
Traitorous scumbag politicians.
If they want to conduct Town Hall meetings in Spanish let them do it in Mexico.
Giving the ‘Rat traitors a taste of their own medicine.
Loogey Butthairyass is nothing but a little punk who hates this country!
I blame the A-Holes who voted this twerp into office.
Please bear in mind as you read the following material that federal immigration policy probably wouldn’t be an issue today if it weren’t for the ill-conceived 17th Amendment, state lawmakers foolishly giving up their voices in Congress by ratifying that amendment.
Next, and with all due respect to mom & pop, please consider the following previously mentioned material. As a consequence of parents not making sure that their children are being taught about the federal government’s constitutionally limited powers as the Founding States had intended for those powers to be understood, many citizens, including patriots, don’t seem to understand that the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate immigration.
More specifically, note that the Founding States had made the 10th Amendment (10A) to clarify in broad terms that the Constitution’s silence about issues like immigration means that the states had reserved government power to address immigration uniquely to the states, not to the corrupt federal government.
In fact, both Thomas Jefferson and James Madison, Madison generally regarded as the father of the Constitution, had referenced 10A to clarify that the feds don’t have the constitutional authority to regulate immigration.
As mentioned in related threads, here is the relevant exerpt from Jefferson’s writings.
“4. _Resolved_, That alien friends are under the jurisdiction and protection of the laws of the State wherein they are: that no power over them has been delegated to the United States, nor prohibited to the individual States, distinct from their power over citizens. And it being true as a general principle, and one of the amendments to the Constitution having also declared, that “the powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people,” the act of the Congress of the United States, passed on the — day of July, 1798, intituled “An Act concerning aliens,” which assumes powers over alien friends, not delegated by the Constitution, is not law, but is altogether void, and of no force [emphasis added].” —Thomas Jefferson, Draft of the Kentucky Resolutions - October 1798.
And here is the related excerpt from the writings of James Madison in Virginia Resolutions.
"That the General Assembly doth particularly protest against the palpable and alarming infractions of the Constitution, in the two late cases of the "Alien and Sedition Acts" passed at the last session of Congress; the first of which exercises a power no where delegated to the federal government, ...…
… the General Assembly doth solemenly appeal to the like dispositions of the other states, in confidence that they will concur with this commonwealth in declaring, as it does hereby declare, that the acts aforesaid, are unconstitutional; and that the necessary and proper measures will be taken by each, for co-operating with this state, in maintaining the Authorities, Rights, and Liberties, referred to the States respectively, or to the people [emphasis added]. ”— James Madison, Draft of the Virginia Resolutions - December 1798.
Also, regardless that federal Democrats, RINOs, activist judges and indoctrinated attorneys will argue that if the Constitution doesn’t say that the feds can’t do something then they can do it, the Supreme Court has addressed that foolish idea too. Politically correct interpretations of the Constitution's Supremacy Clause (5.2) aside, the Court has clarified in broad terms that powers not delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate immigration in this case, are prohibited to the feds.
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
The problem with the 17th Amendment as it concerns so-called federal immigration laws can be explained this way. Low-information voters go home after voting for their favorite federal senators and watch football, totally oblivious to the idea that their senators are working in cahoots with the corrupt House to pass vote-winning immigration bills which Congress actually has no constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited power to make.
Therefore, lawless Obama actually has no broken, constitutionally defensible federal immigration to pardon with constitutionally defensible executive excuses.
So as I have already indicated, not only would federal immigration problems probably not be an issue that people would be discussing at this time if the 17th Amendment had not been ratified, but with all due respect to Constitution-respecting justices, we’d probably have all different faces on the Supreme Court at this time too.
The 17th Amendment needs to disappear.
This is EXACTLY what we should be shoving down these leftist statists throats.
Good.
I despise that Meadow Muffin.
“Keeping Families Together: An Immigration Town Hall”
If keeping them together is so important, why can’t they keep together in Mexico or wherever they came from?
Keep families together! Encourage illegal aliens to go home!
I love how a cop came out and lectured the activists about having to follow the rules before Gutierrez came out and lectured them about how Hispanics don’t have to follow the rules.
You can’t write irony like that. :)
To best understand what is going on, we need to call this what it is......and invasion of foreigners seeking to over throw the US govt. The ding-a-ling in the WH recognizes no laws---he considers our laws to be a plot by evil white men to suppress "people of pallor."
Here, Obama reveals himself, taking his America hatred to new heights .......he
is in collusion w/ Third World govts.....financing and facilitating the overthrow.
Our Founding Fathers wisely advocated against foreign entanglements.
George Washington famously argued that the US must "Act for ourselves and
not for others," by forming an "American character wholly free of foreign
attachments."
