    If you haven’t heard, Pennsylvania’s legislators are working on a bill similar to the AZ bill. I sure hope they get it done. It would be great if NJ would do the same, but I don’t think there’s enough republican votes to get it done here.

    By the way, Cinco de Mayo seemed MUCH calmer to me this year. Several years ago, as a resident of the Phoenix area, that night was always fraught with the sound of gunfire, fireworks and sirens disturbing an otherwise peaceful evening. This year? Quiet.

    Is the law already working?

    Racial Tension Mounts At South Bay High School

    On Thursday, about 200 Mexican-American students walked out of class in protest of the flag clothing incident. Members of the group waved the Mexican flag and said they were marching for respect and unity. They also demanded the school suspend the boys who wore the U.S. flag-adorned clothing.

    As a result of this heated debate, other Bay Area schools by the name of Live Oak have been threatened. The Live Oak School District in Santa Cruz County has received several calls from people angry about the issue, even though they are in no way involved in the Morgan Hill school’s issue. That district’s superintendent believes it’s just a same-name misunderstanding and lack of clarity in reporting the school’s location.

    Administrators at Live Oak High School in Sutter County say they’ve also recieved violent threats. The sheriff there is concerned that a person who threatened to shoot up the school or plant a bomb may follow through.

    The story has sparked an outcry from groups and individuals across the country, including a high school student in Yorktown, Va., who created a Facebook page titled “I support the 5 students from Morgan Hill high school.” As of Friday morning, the fast-growing group had more than 1,850 members.

    I do not see this so much as a Racial Tension as National Loyalty. This is but one more proof than you can not be loyal to two-at least for these “about 200 Mexican-American students” they show their love for the one by hating the other. In MORGAN HILL, Calif and Phoenix, Los Angeles and Chicago we saw the flag of Mexico above ours.

    What was mere foolish “multi-culturalism” and Political Correctness has metastasized into treason.

    § 2381. Treason

    Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.

    Very very very very very true.

    However, neither activity will recruit new voters, improve political advantage, and contribute to attaining long term control of governmental power.

    These are the primary concerns of our two major political parties. Our safety and security are subordinate to those other goals.

    Hispanic students protest chanting ‘si se puede’ — ‘yes we can’

    Why is no one asking “yes we can” what? What is it they can do?

    The answer is what the left and the media don’t want any light to shine on. The left and the msm can get away with calling people who wnat secure borders, legal immigration and public safety needs met racist and bigots as long as the the answer to “yes we can” remains unsaid.

    Those of us in the southwest who have been paying attention know the answer. The “what” is take over the southwest. The idea that the border is illegitimate and needs to bed moved north and east is not held by some lunatic Hispanic fringe here in the southwest any more than hating the west and being ok to kill infidels is a fringe belief in Islam.

    The hostility is real folks. There is trouble coming if not dealt with seriously.

Maybe 20-25 showed up, in a sanctuary city that probably has as many illegals as the entire state of Arizona. The only story I saw in the Chronicle about the May 1st LULAC/La Raza rally quoted a mother and then several paragraphs later her son on the pro-illegal side.

    More information on the flag story:

    School district officials are scheduled to hold a press conference Friday afternoon, a day after more than 200 Hispanic students reportedly skipped class on Thursday and marched to school district headquarters while chanting “we want respect” and “si se puede” — “yes we can,” the Morgan Hill Times reported.

    “We did this to support the Latino/Hispanic community,” Francine Roa, a 2005 Live Oak High School graduate, told the newspaper.

    At least six Morgan Hill police vehicles traveled alongside the students, many of whom carried Mexican flags.

    Police have been told to be on alert for gang-related retaliation against the boys, according to Ken Jones, whose stepson, Daniel Galli, was one of the students who refused to turn their T-shirts inside-out when asked by a vice principal on Wednesday.

    Probably not. As I recall, the immigrants were on the inside, not outside. I suppose their descendants would take umbrage if we treated the Mexican immigrants the same way.

    Illegals have been flooding into this country for decades, and tens of millions of legal mexican immigrants who are just as loyal to mexico are of the same mindset as the illegals: “take back America”.

    They exist in every major city across the US, and thousands of suburbs and small towns.

    mexico doesn’t need to invade the USA, they already have. And if you think that they are not capable of coordinating a unified attack nationwide on the same day, I would ask you to think it over and reconsider.
    They are not just illegals. Those loyal to mexico and illegals hold positions throughout the American employment industry. They are street vendors, police officers, accountants, drug store clerks, restaurant workers, utilities workers, computer technicians, and so on. A coordinated attack, using weapons supplied by the gangs that have been allowed to spread country wide, may not sound like much, but they could, and would, murder millions of people in order to get what they believe belongs to them.

    Possible? I think so. Likely? I hope not, because we won’t be able to respond fast enough. Our guns are useless if they break into our homes and take them while we are at work.

    Why, I just heard Bill White…not 20 ft. from me…say that any such notion was a “myth and a lie”.

    I will have a blog post about Mr. White’s appearance at that “town hall”.

    What a lot of Mexicans can’t stand is that several of the heros of Texas Independence were MEXICAN. They wanted freedom, and HATED dictators.

    “They exist in every major city across the US”

    That is correct. Consider this time in the process as one of localizing a generalized infection. As the infection becomes localized the pressure internally from that infection, or what could be considered an alien substance, and the symptoms become worse. But you aren’t going to get better and less infected if you will if that localization does not take place.

    This is the beginning of what at the end of the day will be healing. But it is only the beginning. There is pain ahead. I expect riots and violence. At some point there will be national guard and maybe military involved.

    This is serious stuff and as we deal with it the hostility and seriousness of many of these illegal aliens is going to become clear.

    YES, there are are kinds of immigrants who love the U.S. and are in favor of the law we have in AZ. NO, I am not painting with a too wide brush.

    But there is a very militant armed and hostile portion of Hispanics in the southwest that are a serious problem. The Mexican drug cartels make anything you’ve seen in the movies about the mafia pale in comparison.

    What is at stake here is some major money. The kind of money that would put Greece back in the black.

    The turf war is going to be just that. A war.

    As you have seen on the news, they got sent home from school for wearing the flag to school on Cinco De Mayo. While this is not an official TPPSV event, we are patriots and we don’t think this is right.

    We encourage you to attend. American flags, lots and lots of them would no doubt be very welcome at this event. Old Navy has very inexpensive American flag t-shirts this time of year if you want to dress in solidarity.

    I may just have to take a drive down there tomorrow morning. Morgan Hill is a pretty little town on the way from San Jose to Monterey.

    I’ve read that many drug running gangs are manned primarily with illegals and they are led by Mexicans who have US citizenship. They use illegals because they know the routes in/out and work for drugs or for little money. Not much is reported on the MANY murders carried out by these gangs and the huge caches of military weapons they have. It takes time and work to find out how very, very vicious these gangs are.

    If those that support illegal aliens think it is okay for 20 million illegals from Mexico to enter the U.S., attend school, receive medical treatment at U.S. hospitals etc., then they must not have a problem with any other individual from any other country wanting to come to America anytime they wish.

    However, if America truly just sat idly by and let everyone who wanted to come to the country in, then there would be about 100 million chinese and probably about 150 million Indian people who would enter the U.S. immediately. You would have a vast number arriving from the continent of Africa, additional illegals from South America etc.

    Inevitably, as most new arrivals would be of limited economic means, yet have live in and consume in a developed economy with higher prices than in their homelands, they would demand economic assistance from the government and of course receive it.

    Given that America is running a massive federal debt and deficit, and therefore can’t sustain itself as it is, if 300 plus million more people came to the U.S. with their hands out, your countries entire economic structure and system would collapse. Their would be chaos, everyone would go into survival mode and it would resemble an end-of-days scenario. Those that could get their hands of the most fire-power and were best organized would be the only ones left standing.

    So, in other words, if everyone did as the illegal Mexicans have done, America would collapse and not exist. That is why, if it isn’t alright for everyone to do it, it’s not alright for some to do it.

    Isn’t it amazing that Obama is so concerned about the recent drop in the stock market that he is having his people review trading activity, yet in the same breath, he is trying to pass cap-and-trade, which he knows will put a huge burden on American businesses going forward and thus impact earnings and stock values in a drastic way.

    It’s as if he is as stupid as he is dishonest and he is trying to see if he can outdue himself in both regards.

    There’s not just white guilt in America, there is latino guilt as well.

    I have a friend who is 5th generation American of Mexican descent. None of her family speaks Spanish, including her father, mother and grandparents. Needless to say her children don’t either.

    A few years ago, she became all involved in the immigration debate, sympathetic to the illegals and trying to institute Spanish and Mexican related activities at the elementary school our children attended together.

    She is the epitome of Americans of Mexican descent who feel guilty for the plight of their “countrymen” as she once called them. I reminded her that she is American and since they are not, the illegals are not her countrymen.

    The point was lost on her.

    The only poll I have seen:

    61% of Arizonan’s of Hispanic Origin who self identify as Citizen or legal resident favor SB 1070. Our English Only initiative a few years ago was supported by a majority of Hispanic Origin voters. Support for SB 1070 was weakest among white liberal/Democrats.

    There were in fact we Latino/Chicano/Mexican/ Mayan-Spanish Hybrids/Coconuts in the counter protest at the Capitol–as we were not wearing our sisters panty hose on our heads or acting the fool we did not get the TV coverage. Imagine that.

    This is not a mere political argument but in fact an invasion by people not interested in obeying ANY laws not of their own choosing. Their gangs are in fact a political statement.

    Wearing an American Flag in an American school is ” disrespecting the Mexican-American students“.
    tells you all you really need to know.

    This is not going to end well-your government will not protect you.

    WASHINGTON (AP) — The failed bombing in New York’s Times Square is a possible signal that militant leaders in Pakistan have shifted their focus to targets in the U.S. and other Western countries instead of sticking to their home base, according to U.S. counterterrorism officials.

    The way our border is so porous, someone, with a decent plan and smarts, could move a whole militant operation right into the U.S. with chances being caught very slim. Explosives included.

    A sportswriter for the Washington Post–Michael Wilbon–explained why the players on the Phoenix Suns are right. You see, their “experiences and sensibilities are, thankfully, a lot broader than most of their neighbors.” Of course! Who is more in touch with the problems caused by open borders than pampered, over-paid, NBA players?

    They have most likely heard first-hand from their illegal alien gardeners, nannies and housekeepers how unfair it is for the US to enforce it’s laws and protect its sovereignty.

    And let’s face, a certain percentage of the players have good friends who risk their lives bringing the players harmless, recreational chemicals (drugs). Clearly we’re monsters for being concerned about something so insignificant as immigration status and controlling our own borders.

    Okay, that’s enough sarcasm! I’m disappointed Wilbon has his head so far up his own butt that he can’t see the real issues here.

    Thank you Arizona!!!

    Hispanic students protest chanting ’si se puede’ — ‘yes we can’

    Why is no one asking “yes we can” what? What is it they can do?

    Based on test scores, it isn’t Reading, wRiting and aRithmetic! Perhaps a little more time studying and a bit less time at the mall, texting friends, on-line, watching tv, shopping, talking on the phone, hanging out or marching in protest against something these CHILDREN can’t possibly understand would help.

    Given the beating and racial slurs tossed about by the police in Seattle I think we can at least show immigrants how our new law in AZ is for THEIR benefit as well. Clearly defining racial profilling as illegal means AZ is cutting edge on protecting immigrants. The law being so specific and so clearly denouncing racial profilling is PRO-immigrant. Not anti-immigrant.

    My hearts thinking about Cuba!

    If people don’t have a problem with illegal aliens coming from Mexico, then the United States owes the citizens of Cuba a very big apology for sending them back when they are picked up at sea and sent back to a communist dictator.

    Change the Cuban policy and then claim the faux moral outrage about illegals from Mexico staying.

    And Hollyweird is chiming in on the topic too. Heard about the upcoming movie “Machete”? The cast includes: DeNiro, Lohan, Alba, Danny Trejo, etc. It opens with this line: “This Machete… a special Cinco de Mayo message to Arizona!” (by Machete/Danny Trejo)

    Here’s another: “We didn’t cross the border, the border crossed us!” (by Jessica Alba character).

    Completely underwhelming I tell you.

    Search YouTube for “Machete Official 2010 Movie Trailer” (I’d include a direct link, but since the trailer segment has the ‘F-bomb’ at least twice our hostess might not appreciate that, so you can search for yourselves).

    Talk about inflammatory social commentary….geez.

    The story has sparked an outcry from groups and individuals across the country, including a high school student in Yorktown, Va., who created a Facebook page titled “I support the 5 students from Morgan Hill high school.” As of Friday morning, the fast-growing group had more than 1,850 members.

    This Facebook group does not seem to exist. I searched for it, to join it myself. . . .did not find.

    I will tell a little side story here….I go to Mexico a lot …in the past 20 years I have spent close to a year there. It is a given that many Mexicans that come to the US not only vote but vote as many times as they would wish to. So I joke with my friends down there, that some day I would like to vote in one of their elections. This causes my friends some distress, as they are not sure I am joking…. “ don’t do it” I am told “you will go to jail, and you won’t like our jails”.

    Another little side story a truth that NO one wants to hear…Child molesters…. It is not safe to molest children in Mexico…. There is no protection there. So if one has a need to do that evil, go to the US and if you get caught, you will have protection and all the money you need for your “defence”

If there’s anything I’m supposed to hate more than Boston it’s New Jersey. Boston even has Scott Brown! I know, he’s no Ronald Reagan, but still, New York has Charles Schumer! Help!
