"Don't ask, don't tell" extended to illegal aliens Post Date: 2007-06-02 15:16:56 by richard9151

In a bizarre, yet somehow completely logical, recapitulation of President Clinton's "Don't ask, don't tell" policy on homosexuals in the military, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has issued his own "Dont ask, don't tell" order with regard to illegal aliens seeking City services. Just as the left attacked Clinton's very liberal compromise policy as too harsh, the New York City Council is attacking Bloomberg's policy for the same reason. The story begins in 1989 when then-Mayor Edward Koch issued an executive order telling City agencies not to inform the INS about any person's citizenship status. Koch's principal argument for ...
Comment on Profiling--Posner Post Date: 2007-06-02 15:03:35 by richard9151

Please go to the site to read the remainder of the paper, if you wish. In the case of ordinary crimes, where for example profiling might take the form of disproportionately frequent searches of vehicles driven by Hispanics because Hispanics are disproportionately represented in illegal drug trafficking, I would expect profiling to have little effect on the crime rate. The reason is the positive elasticity of supply of persons who commit victimless crimes, which is to say crimes resulting from the outlawing of products or services for which there is a demand. If one class of suppliers is driven out of business, this makes room for others. Given the fixed budget for law enforcement assumed ...
Sex Crimes and Illegal Immigrants: Misuse of Statistics for Politics Post Date: 2007-06-02 14:49:58 by richard9151

Yet another reader sent me a great bad math link. (Keep 'em coming guys!) This one is an astonishingly nasty slight of hand, and a great example of how people misuse statistics to support a political agenda. It's by someone named "Dr. Deborah Schurman-Kauflin", and it's an attempt to paint illegal immigrants as a bunch of filthy criminal lowlifes. It's titled "The Dark Side of Illegal Immigration: Nearly One Million Sex Crimes Committed by Illegal Immigrants in the United States." With a title like that, you'd think that she has actual data showing that nearly one million sex crimes were committed by illegal immigrants, wouldn't you? Well, ...
Too Bad President Bush has torn the conservative coalition asunder. Post Date: 2007-06-02 06:30:13 by Zipporah

Too BadPresident Bush has torn the conservative coalition asunder. Friday, June 1, 2007 12:00 a.m. EDT What political conservatives and on-the-ground Republicans must understand at this point is that they are not breaking with the White House on immigration. They are not resisting, fighting and thereby setting down a historical marker--"At this point the break became final." That's not what's happening. What conservatives and Republicans must recognize is that the White House has broken with them. What President Bush is doing, and has been doing for some time, is sundering a great political coalition. This is sad, and it holds implications not only for one political party ...

The Dark Side of Illegal Immigration: Nearly One Million Sex Crimes Committed by Illegal Immigrants in the United States [Full Thread] Post Date: 2007-05-31 10:08:14 by christine

Introduction: After conducting a 12 month in-depth study of illegal immigrants who committed sex crimes and murders for the time period of January 1999 through April 2006 , it is clear that the U.S. public faces a dangerous threat from sex predators who cross the U.S. borders illegally. There were 1500 cases analyzed in depth. They included: serial rapes, serial murders, sexual homicides, and child molestation committed by illegal immigrants. Police reports, public records, interviews with police, and media accounts were all included. Offenders were located in 36 states, but it is clear, that the most of the offenders were located in states with the highest numbers of illegal immigrants. ...
Immigration 'Compromise' Sells Out Our Sovereignty Post Date: 2007-05-31 06:46:04 by Ada

The much-vaunted Senate compromise on immigration is a compromise alright: a compromise of our laws, a compromise of our sovereignty, and a compromise of the Second Amendment. That anyone in Washington believes this is a credible approach to solving our immigration crisis suggests just how out of touch our political elites really are. The reality is that this bill will grant amnesty to virtually all of the 12 to 20 million illegal aliens in the country today. Supporters use very creative language to try and convince us that amnesty is not really amnesty, but when individuals who have entered the United States illegally are granted citizenship regardless of the fees they ...
GOP Plots Blue-Slip Attack On Immigration Bill Post Date: 2007-05-30 14:05:19 by Brian S

May 30, 2007 House conservatives are ready to stop the Senate immigration bill in its tracks with a potent procedural weapon should the contentious measure win passage in the upper chamber. The trump card conservatives may hold is a constitutional rule that revenue-related bills must originate in the House. The Senate immigration measure requires that illegal immigrants pay back taxes before becoming citizens, opening the door to a House protest, dubbed a blue slip for the color of its paper. House Republicans used the same back-taxes mandate for a blue-slip threat that derailed last years immigration conference. The new Senate bill still must survive two more weeks of ...

GLYNCO, Ga., May 29 President Bush today accused opponents of his proposed immigration measure of fear-mongering to defeat it in Congress, and took on his own conservative political base as he did so. If you want to scare the American people, what you say is the bills an amnesty bill, Mr. Bush said this afternoon at a training center for border enforcement agents located in this town in Georgias southeastern corner. Thats empty political rhetoric, trying to frighten our citizens. The president used some of his toughest language yet as he began an effort to build support for the bill in the Senate. The measure hews closely to his long-sought ...
Immigration Law Foes Scare Americans: Bush Post Date: 2007-05-29 19:22:07 by Brian S

US President George W. Bush said Tuesday that opponents of a landmark law to normalize the status of 12 million illegal immigrants were trying to stir up fear among Americans. In an energetic defense of the proposed law soon to be debated in the Senate, Bush rejected critics who are calling the legislation an amnesty for illegal immigrants, and said kicking them out of the country is "simply unrealistic." "If you want to scare the American people, what you say is, 'The bill's an amnesty bill.' "It's not an amnesty bill. That's empty political rhetoric trying to frighten our fellow citizens," Bush said in southern Georgia at a training center ...
Bush lashes out at critics of immigration bill Post Date: 2007-05-29 19:03:36 by Zipporah

A week ago, I had an item suggesting the president doesnt really care about the immigration deal he struck with congressional leaders. If he did care, hed do what he did when touting his war policy and his plan to privatize Social Security: give enthusiastic speeches, use his Bully Pulpit, lash out at critics, etc. To be fair, I should note, by way of follow-up, that the president appears to be taking the immigration proposal far more seriously this week. Indeed, Bush is doing what comes naturally questioning the motives and patriotism of those who dare to disagree with him. President Bush attacked opponents of an immigration deal Tuesday, suggesting they dont ...

Treachery Against American Civilization By Frosty Wooldridge 5-28-7 Senate Bill 1348, giving mass amnesty to 20 million illegal aliens, proves a treacherous and outrageous act against our civilization by Congress and President Bush. "Every aspect of the current immigration bill, and of the arguments made for it, has fraud written all over it," said Dr. Thomas Sowell, African-American professor at Stanford University and writer for the San Gabriel Valley Tribune. "What can we do with 12 million people already here illegally?" Sowell asked. "We can stop them from becoming 50 million, the way three million became 12 million from the previous amnesty in 1986." ...

Review Of The 'Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act' From Ted Twietmeyer 5-28-7 After a simple review, one can easily see that this Bill is more like an illegal alien's bill of rights than 'immigration reform.' If you are a US citizen, do you have all the rights and benefits in this bill, too?First, I was determined to see if the rumor was true that DHS will be approving everyone to have or keep a job, both citizen and non- citizen alike in the Comprehensive Immigration Reform Act of 2006. [1] To my surprise this approval only applies to aliens and foreign workers desiring to work in the United States or to stay here.However - there are more surprises buried deep within ...

May 25, 2007 -- TO UNDERSTAND why the Senate immigration bill won't survive in its current form, look no further than what the presidential candidates in both parties have said about it. Almost every one of them is opposed to it. Democrats Barack Obama and John Edwards, reflective of the left, say it's too harsh. Mitt Romney and most Republicans, aware of outrage on the right, say it's too lenient and amounts to "amnesty." Some of the most encouraging reviews come from Hillary Rodham Clinton and Rudy Giuliani. Keenly aware of how politically explosive immigration is for the base of both of their parties, they are running from the issue. Clinton went as far as ...

What could be better for business than a workforce that toils for next to nothing, drives down wages for everyone else, can't protest or unionize, then goes away when you're done with them? Your guide to the guest worker program. James Ridgeway May 25 , 2007 Key to the Bush administration's approach to immigration reform is the controversial guest worker program, which preserves the flow of cheap, low-skilled labor to American businesses while limiting the potential costs to employers and taxpayers. Under the program, there will be no children to educate (since guest workers won't be ...

Steel-plated motel offers refuge in Mexico drug war Post Date: 2007-05-26 12:03:43 by Horse

MONTERREY, Mexico (Reuters) - A motel in northern Mexico is putting steel doors on its rooms to protect guests from kidnappings and shootings in an escalating war between rival drug cartels. Owners of the Rancho El Trueno, or Thunder Ranch, began fortifying the highway motel near Monterrey a year ago but have decided to shield all 35 rooms as drug killings have worsened in the area in recent months. Complete with hot tubs, red imitation-leather beds, mirrored walls and striptease poles, the rooms are shuttered behind steel gates about 1.5 inches thick and some already have steel doors. "We want people to have fun and be able to feel safe. Lovers come, big groups come, we are full on ...
