The Illegal-Alien Crime Wave

The Illegal-Alien Crime WaveHeather Mac Donald EMAIL RESPOND PRINT Some of the most violent criminals at large today are illegal aliens. Yet in cities where the crime these aliens commit is highest, the police cannot use the most obvious tool to apprehend them: their immigration status. In Los Angeles, for example, dozens of members of a ruthless Salvadoran prison gang have sneaked back into town after having been deported for such crimes as murder, assault with a deadly weapon, and drug trafficking. Police officers know who they are and know that their mere presence in the country is a felony. Yet should a cop arrest an illegal gangbanger for felonious reentry, it is he who will ...

November 27, 2006 WASHINGTON -- The White House is reaching out to leading congressional Democrats on the issue of overhauling immigration, hoping to build a bipartisan coalition to support a "guest worker" program and provide a path to legalized status for many undocumented immigrants, lawmakers and administration officials said. President Bush has expressed an eagerness to work with Democrats on the issue in private meetings with lawmakers and in public statements, as he seeks to strike a new tone with Democrats who will be in control of Congress for the final two years of his presidency. The president's interest in the issue is getting a warm reception from members of ...

'Rep. Tancredo: Bush Wants To Merge U.S. With Mexico and Canada'

Rep. Tancredo: Bush Wants To Merge U.S. With Mexico and Canada Rep. Tom Tancredo (R-CO), one of the leading voices on immigration for the right, claims President George W. Bush is plotting to merge the U.S. with Mexico and Canada. An excerpt from WorldNetDaily: Tancredo lashed out at the White House’s lack of action in securing U.S. borders, and said efforts to merge the U.S. with both Mexico and Canada is not a fantasy. “I know this is dramatic — or maybe somebody would say overly dramatic — but I’m telling you, that everything I see leads me to believe that this whole idea of the North American Union, it’s not something that just is written about by ...
Most Americans Favor Guest-Worker Program: Poll

Wed Nov 22, 2006 6:03 AM ET NEW YORK (Reuters) - Most Americans believe illegal immigrants should be allowed to become guest workers and eventually U.S. citizens, but Congress should do more to close the border to stop more illegals entering the country, according to a new poll published on Tuesday. The nationwide poll, conducted by Quinnipiac University, found that by a margin of 69 percent to 27 percent, American voters say illegal immigrants should be allowed into a guest worker program with the ability to work toward citizenship over a period of several years. Such a guest worker program had wide support among voters of all political stripes. But 71 percent of voters said Congress ...

IMPORTING SOCIALISTS by Selwyn Duke November 19, 2006 http://NewsWithViews.com It's funny how the conclusion of an election can completely alter media reportage. The day after the Democrat Public Relations Arm (DPRA) - euphemistically known as the "mainstream media" - got its party elected, they actually started broaching a couple of real issues. Such as amnesty for illegal aliens. In my election piece I warned that Democrat ascendancy would mean a full court press to grant amnesty-by-another-name to illegals. And I retired election night as one of the voices in the darkness, emitting admonitions that a 420-foot-diameter SETI dish would have had trouble detecting amidst the ...

TAR HEEL, N.C. -- About 1,000 nonunion workers, mostly Hispanics upset with the recent firing of immigrants for allegedly providing false documents, walked off their jobs at a Smithfield Foods Inc. slaughtering plant, a union spokeswoman said. About 300 workers were protesting Friday morning outside the plant, said Libby Manly, a representative of the United Food and Commercial Workers Union, which helped organize the protest and has been trying for years to form a union at the plant. The plant is considered the world's largest hog slaughtering plant. Smithfield Foods also has failed to address problems of sexual harassment and denial of workers compensation claims, said Gene Bruskin, a ...
A Modest Enabling Proposal To Accompany Amnesty For Illegal Aliens

I would suggest the following modest bill to be passed that would require the following to be completed before any Amnesty for Illegal Aliens legislation could go into effect: 1) The Federal government compensate all state and local governments for 100% of the expenditure of said governments over the past 2 years on education, health care, welfare, disability, unemployment compensation, police, prison and courts for illegal aliens and their children, 3) That the federal government compensate all motorists and pedestrians for all losses due to vehicular accidents caused by unisured illegal aliens for the past two years. In case of the death of said individuals the next of kin shall receive ...

NEW YORK (CNN) -- The Democratic victory last week has our political elites in both parties and in the national media squealing like stuck pigs. Way to go, America, we may be on the way.
It seems nothing frightens our free trade and pro-illegal immigration orthodoxies more than putting the common good and the national interest above dominant special interests, corporate America and, of course, our darling elites in both political parties and the media.

W's amnesty train full speed ahead? Posted: November 16, 2006 1:00 a.m. Eastern With the resignation of Republican National Committee Chair Ken Mehlman, President Bush intends to fill the post with Florida's Mel Martinez, a Hispanic who led the battle in the U.S. Senate for amnesty for illegal aliens. "Martinez is going to lead the fight for amnesty that Bush could not win when Republicans controlled the Congress," one angry RNC member told the Washington Times' Ralph Hallow. Unable to extract an amnesty bill from Denny Hastert and Co. in the House like the McCain-Kennedy bill he supports, Bush is looking to cut a deal with San Francisco Nancy.

AFX News Limited Russia to ban foreigners from retail markets 11.15.2006, 08:27 PM MOSCOW (XFN-ASIA) - Russian Prime Minister Mikhail Fradkov said foreigners will be temporarily banned from retail vending next year to encourage Russians to take up jobs in the sector. Starting Jan 1, foreigners will no longer be authorized to sell alcohol and medicines, and from April 1 until the end of 2007 they will be banned from any type of retail vending in Russian markets, Fradkov said. The move follows a call by President Vladimir Putin for more Russians to take up jobs in the country's markets, where stallholders are often from ex-Soviet republics of the Caucasus and Central Asia.

Not to be upstaged, United States Senator Harry Reid (D-NV), new senate majority leader voted against making English America's official language. He said, "Making English America's official language is racist." Reid receives an immigration report of F. In his many years in the U.S. Senate, he did nothing to defend America's southern border.

FARMERS BRANCH, Texas (AP) - Leaders of this Dallas suburb unanimously approved tough new anti-immigration measures Monday evening, including one that makes English the official language. In a series of 6-0 votes, the city council without discussion approved fines for landlords that deal with illegal immigrants, and decided to allow local authorities to screen suspects in police custody to see whether they are in the country illegally. With the votes, the city became the first municipality in Texas to enact such strong anti-immigrant laws. Such ordinances have troubled many people in the state, where many Latino families can trace their roots to the era before statehood. More than 50 ...

Hispanic Family Values? Heather Mac Donald Runaway illegitimacy is creating a new U.S. underclass. Unless the life chances of children raised by single mothers suddenly improve, the explosive growth of the U.S. Hispanic population over the next couple of decades does not bode well for American social stability. Hispanic immigrants bring near–Third World levels of fertility to America, coupled with what were once thought to be First World levels of illegitimacy. (In fact, family breakdown is higher in many Hispanic countries than here.) Nearly half of the children born to Hispanic mothers in the U.S. are born out of wedlock, a proportion that has been increasing rapidly with no ...
The Next Added 100 Million Americans - Part 7 - A Global Warming

We could sit back in the old Lazy Boy lounger; press the remote, drink a beer and watch as the next added 100 million Americans pile up on our shores by 2040. We may think that 34 years extends so far into the future that it's not important to take action today. Ah shucks, 100 million more Americans won't be any different than the last added 106 million added since 1964! Since we now house 300 million, what's the problem with another adding 100 million people? Short, sobering and gut wrenching answer: plenty! You may find it interesting to note in 1906, India reached 300 million people. Today, demographic experts say India, at 1.1 billion, will out-grow China on India's way to 1.4 to as ...
Mexican Leader Assails Border Fence Plan

(11-08) 23:58 PST WASHINGTON, (AP) -- Ahead of a meeting with President Bush, Mexican President-elect Felipe Calderon is acknowledging his unhappiness with U.S. border security measures, saying the two countries need "bridges for progress and not walls that isolate and divide." U.S. steps to stem the flow of migrants across the border were expected to dominate Bush's discussions on Thursday with Calderon, who takes office on Dec. 1. Mexico has been highly critical of the U.S. plan to build a 700-mile fence along the border. The law authorizing the fence was signed by Bush on Oct. 26. Calderon noted that barbed wire is also part of the U.S. border control apparatus. The ...

The landslide victory — all four passed by about 3-to-1 ratios statewide — sends a message that the state won't tolerate illegal immigration, said proponent Don Goldwater. "The people of Arizona have said, 'Enough,' and that they want this issue taken care of," said Goldwater, a gubernatorial candidate who lost in the Republican primary in ...

President Bush yesterday said he will team up with Democrats to pass an immigration bill with a guest-worker program that his own party blocked this year, and his Republican opponents predicted a bloody intraparty fight but said they cannot stop such a bill from passing. "We will fight it, we will lose. It will go to the Senate, it will pass. The president will sign it. And it will happen quickly because that's one thing they know they can pass," said Rep. Tom Tancredo, Colorado Republican and chairman of the House Immigration Reform Caucus, who had led the opposition to a guest-worker plan. "I am absolutely horrified by this prospect, but I have to face reality." Mr. ...

CHEAP LABOR MY ARMPIT By Frosty Wooldridge November 6, 2006 http://NewsWithViews.com An October report by the Washington Post exposed illegal aliens sending $25 billion in cash back to Mexico annually. Another $25 billion transfers to Central and South America. An additional $16 billion U.S. dollars vanish into Asia annually. Cash remittances sent back to immigrant countries bleed the United States into serious financial consequences. We suffer a $700 billion annual trade deficit from over 3.1 million jobs off-shored and out-sourced — compliments of your U.S. Congress with their wonderful H-1B, H-2B and L-1 visas giveaways. As to cash draining out of the United States, illegals ...
565,000 immigrants to UK last year

More than 1,500 immigrants arrived in Britain every day last year, official data showed. The Office for National Statistics said 565,000 people came to live here for at least a year during the course of 2005. Meanwhile, 1,000 people a day left the UK to live abroad - an estimated 380,000 - half of whom were British citizens. It means the country's net population rose by 500 a day, or 185,000 during the 12 months. The ONS's Total International Migration figures said the 565,000 estimate was 17,000 fewer than the 2004 figure, but added: "This still continued the overall trend of high in-migration into the UK that began in the late 1990s." The largest group of migrants were ...

10/31/2006 Hispanics Fleeing Hazleton, Pennsylvania Like Roaches With The Light On This small hillside city in Northeastern Pennsylvania has yet to enforce a tough, first-of-its-kind law targeting illegal immigrants, but evidence suggests that many Hispanics - illegal or otherwise - have already left. That has hobbled the city’s Hispanic business district, where shops that flourished six months ago have closed or are struggling to stay open. “Before, [Hazleton] was a nice place,” said Soto, 27, who came to the United States from the Dominican Republic a decade ago. “Now, we have a war against us. I am legal but I feel the pressure also.” Mayor Lou Barletta, who ...

HAZLETON, Pa. Elvis Soto's variety store used to make money. But few customers have been walking through his door lately, and his merchandise _ calling cards, cell phones, car stereos, clothing _ is collecting dust on the shelves. With bills mounting, Soto might have to take another job to stay afloat financially, and may even close the store. On Wednesday, a tough, first-of-its-kind law targeting illegal immigrants goes into effect in this small hillside city in northeastern Pennsylvania. But the evidence suggests many Hispanics _ illegal or otherwise _ have already left. That, in turn, has hobbled the city's Hispanic business district, where some shops have closed and others are ...

Bush's border fence scam By Dimitri Vassilaros Pittsburgh TRIBUNE-REVIEW Sunday, October 29, 2006 A proposed 700-mile fence along America's porous border with Mexico could be the quintessential example of the Republican Party being its own worst enemy. It's almost inconceivable that an issue with such overwhelming public support could have been mishandled so badly by a party that is so badly in need of a winning issue. The GOP brain trust could have answered five simple questions about the fence in 30 seconds. Instead it took the better part of Wednesday to learn the ugly truth. Thursday morning, President George W. Bush signed into law the Secure Fence Act of 2006. "We have a ...
