The Most Racist City In America: Hazleton, PA La Prensa San Diego, Editorial, Daniel Muñoz, Jul 28, 2006 On July 12th, the Hazleton, Pennsylvania City Council voted to approve an Illegal Immigration Relief Act, creating one of the strictest anti-immigrant laws in the United States.

The law will require anyone seeking to rent in the city to apply for a residency license and submit to an investigation of citizenship status. Landlords found renting to people without licenses will be ...
An Immigrant's Letter Post Date: 2006-07-26 09:38:01 by Phaedrus

The passing scene and what it's about viewed from the traditionalist politically incorrect Right.A reader sends this account of how he perceived, as a new immigrant, dirt-poor and a neighbor of Mexicans in Los Angeles in 1971, that the country was headed for disaster, immigration-wise. I am not a Mexican hater or immigrant basher per se.I am an America basher. One cannot blame impoverished, semi-literate people for wanting to improve their lot in life by moving to the U.S. But one must condemn the selfish, greedy American elite (Dems greedy for votes, GOP greedy for profits) that has made it possible; ridicule the naive dogoodnicks who are their amen choir; and ...

POLITICS: U.S. JEWS MOVING AWAY FROM LIBERAL IMMIGRATION VIEWS Inter Press Service English News Wire; 7/21/2005; Tom Barry* Inter Press Service English News Wire 07-21-2005 SILVER CITY, New Mexico, Jul. 20, 2005 (IPS/GIN) -- The American Jewish community is showing signs of renouncing its traditionally liberal views about immigration. Before the Sep. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks, U.S. Jews were dependable allies against the restrictionist immigration policies of such organisations as the Centre for Immigration Studies (CIS) and the Federation for American Immigration Reform. Today, however, neocon institutes and synagogues are increasingly the forums for the type of ...
Injured soldiers (ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS) take citizenship oath as Bush bolsters support for immigration reform Post Date: 2006-07-25 09:19:34 by Jethro Tull

WASHINGTON (AP) President Bush presided over a citizenship ceremony on Monday for three soldiers injured in Iraq, calling them "men who knew the cost of freedom and were willing to pay that cost so others could live free." Bush also used his visit to the Walter Reed Army Medical Center to promote his stalled proposal for overhauling the nation's immigration laws. He urged Congress to break the current stalemate and pass legislation that "must be comprehensive." The three injured soldiers who took the oath and became citizens were Spc. Noe Santos-Dilone of Brooklyn, N.Y.; Spc. Sergio Lopez of Bowlingbrook, Ill.; and Pfc. Eduardo Leal-Cardenas of Los Angeles. ...

Immigration and Usurpation Elites, Power, and the Peoples Will July 2006 Americans are aware that their political class may not always act in their best interest. This belief is enshrined in the American character, its laws, and the very philosophy underpinning the U.S. Constitution. The Founding Fathers crafted things so that the "knaves" will be forced to abide by the will of the people, but they warned that their "natural progress" is to find ways to remain in power and increase that power at the peoples expense. They therefore also urged eternal vigilance, spiritedness, and the occasional revolt of the people. Thomas Jefferson, James Madison and others ...
How Unskilled Immigrants Hurt Our Economy Post Date: 2006-07-24 14:25:30 by Jethro Tull

How Unskilled Immigrants Hurt Our Economy Steven Malanga A handful of industries get low-cost labor, and the taxpayers foot the bill. The day after Librado Velasquez arrived on Staten Island after a long, surreptitious journey from his Chiapas, Mexico, home, he headed out to a street corner to wait with other illegal immigrants looking for work. Velasquez, who had supported his wife, seven kids, and his in-laws as a campesino, or peasant farmer, until a 1998 hurricane devastated his farm, eventually got work, off the books, loading trucks at a small New Jersey factory, which hired illegals for jobs that required few special skills. The arrangement suited both, until a work injury sent ...

I ran into this at ALI-Pac. The crew there was actually enjoying the fact that the cops found it necessary to beat on a chick with night sticks. WTF is happening to this country? A girl walks up with a camera to take a picture of someone else being roughed up and she gets slammed with a bike, shoved by two or three cops, and then one chicken shit mutha fugger of a pussy assed cop smashes her across the back with a stick and then beats on her while she is on the ground with a friend laying on her, seemingly trying to protect her. These people were protesting the SOS Minuteman march in LA. Since they were on the other team, the anti illegal crowd is loving this shit. WTF? If I was marching ...
Not So 'Free Republic'’—The Shot Heard Around the Net Post Date: 2006-07-23 17:58:53 by Morgana le Fay

The shot heard around the Internet has been fired on http://FreeRepublic.com. The owner Jim Robinson and his moderators have launched a sniper style purge against members that disagree with the President's 'guest worker' amnesty or support more control of illegal immigration. Free Republic is an amazing tool for those looking for a good debate and news from around the country. The problem for the administration of the site is that their creation is allowing the participants to learn that the Bush immigration record and plans are shockingly out of line with the views of most conservatives. The management's answer to this conflict between the majority of conservatives and the influence of ...

July 22, 2006, 9:47 PM EDT BARKSDALE AIR FORCE BASE, La. -- Twenty-five illegal immigrants employed as contract workers at this Air Force base were arrested by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents. The arrests of the construction and landscape workers were made Friday. The workers were "foreign nationals," according to a news release from the 2nd Bomb Wing that did not specify countries of origin. Most had obtained fraudulent Social Security and alien registration numbers to complete forms, the release said. The workers did not have access to secure information, 2nd Bomb Wing spokesman Lt. Frank Hartnett said. He would not say how the workers got on the base.

It Wasn't The Court Order She Sought Illegal Immigrant Seeks Order Against Husband. The Judge Tells Her To Get Out Or Be Deported. By Sam Quinones, Times Staff Writer July 20, 2006 A substitute judge hearing the case of an illegal immigrant seeking a restraining order against her husband threatened to turn her over to immigration officials if she didn't leave his courtroom. Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Pro Tem Bruce R. Fink told Aurora Gonzalez during last week's hearing that he was going to count to 20 and that if she was still in his courtroom when he finished, he would have her arrested and deported to Mexico. In an interview Wednesday, Fink said that the woman had admitted in ...

Minutemen not watching over funds By Jerry Seper THE WASHINGTON TIMES July 20, 2006 A growing number of Minuteman Civil Defense Corps leaders and volunteers are questioning the whereabouts of hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions, of dollars in donations collected in the past 15 months, challenging the organization's leadership over financial accountability. Chris Simcox Alan Keyes Many of the group's most active members say they have no idea how much money has been collected as part of its effort to stop illegal entry -- primarily along the U.S.-Mexico border, what it has been spent on or why it has been funneled through a Virginia-based charity headed by conservative Alan Keyes. ...
Close Our Borders! Post Date: 2006-07-15 09:48:39 by DeaconBenjamin

We are told that the vast majority of Americans want our borders closed. When they say "our borders," they do not mean the one with Canada the longest undefended border in the world. They mean the one with Mexico. Yet that border, while not quite open, is more like a sieve than a wall. The politicians dither. But politicians do not dither when their re-election is on the line. They see their opportunities, and they take them. So, what explains the dithering? I suggest that there is confusion enormous confusion over three words: close, our, and borders. CLOSE Close means prevent entry and exit. Americans do not want this. That would mean no travel ...
Senate Bill Seeks More Pay For Aliens [even as American workers at the same work site could earn less] Post Date: 2006-07-13 16:15:29 by Brian S

The Senate immigration bill would require that foreign construction laborers here under the guest-worker program be paid well above the minimum wage, even as American workers at the same work site could earn less. The bill "would guarantee wages to some foreign workers that could be higher than those paid to American workers at the same work site," says a policy paper released this week by the Senate's Republican Policy Committee. "This is unfair to U.S. workers, inappropriate, and unnecessary." The 11-page, harshly critical analysis of the Senate immigration bill on this one point reveals how torn Senate Republicans are over the larger issue of immigration. Though ...

July 12, 2006 History is What Comes Next Mexico Splits in Half: the Election Hits the Streets By JOHN ROSS A full week after the most viciously contested presidential election in its modern history, a Florida-sized fraud looms over the Mexican landscape and the nation has been divided almost exactly in half along political, economic, geographical and racial lines. Mexico has always been two lands "Illusionary Mexico" and "Profound Mexico" is how sociologist Guillermo Bonfils described the great divide between rich and poor. But now, should it be allowed to stand, right-winger Felipe Calderon's severely questioned 243.000 vote victory over left-wing populist ...

COLUMBIA, S.C. A woman and her sister had to go to the hospital after a bartender mistakenly dipped their martini glasses in a caustic substance used to clean the restaurant's fryer. The bartender ran out of sugar Saturday night at Doc's Gumbo Grille downtown and asked a dishwasher that speaks mainly Spanish for more sugar. The employee gave the bartender a box containing a white substance that looked like sugar, but it was the cleaner instead, restaurant owner Doug Goolsby said. "I hate that anybody gets hospitalized at your place of business. Mistakes happen, and it's regrettable," said Goolsby, who added the business has moved the cleaner to the basement. Rita ...

July10, 2006 Democracy Betrayed Electoral Fraud and Rebellion in Mexico By ROGER BURBACH Over half a million people took to the streets of Mexico City on Saturday to protest the fraudulent election of Felipe Calderon. Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, the real winner of the presidential election, told the huge crowd, "the elections were fraudulent from the start," adding the incumbent president, Vincente Fox "has betrayed democracy." The reason Fox and his National Action Party (PAN) pulled out all the stops to steal the election is quite simple-they are desperately afraid of the growing class rebellion by Mexico's poor and oppressed. The campaign slogan of Lopez ...

Latino Funds Help Family Businesses With Posterity in Mind By JAMES FLANIGAN Published: July 8, 2006 PASADENA, Calif. When Daniel D. Villanueva, a former place kicker for the Los Angeles Rams and the Dallas Cowboys, hung up his football cleats for a career in broadcasting in 1968, he tapped into something big. The fledgling Los Angeles television station he joined helped form the Spanish International Network, which ultimately grew into Univision Communications. *snip* Now what intrigues Mr. Villanueva, 67, most is nurturing small companies and inspiring entrepreneurs to become the backbone of the next generation of Latino businesses.

July 8 / 9, 2006 The King is Dead, Long Live the King Mexico's Election Lacks Credibility By LAURA CARLSEN Mexico's official vote count unfolded more like a suspense novel than an electoral process yesterday. Commentators and common citizens sat poised at television or computer screens as Andrés Manuel López Obrador's two-and-a-half point lead gradually dwindled until-at four in the morning-the conservative candidate, Felipe Calderón, pulled ahead. The final tally showed an unbelievably thin margin of just over half a percentage point. The operative word here is "unbelievable."

Saturday, July 08, 2006 Star-Ledger Staff The mayor of a small Bergen County town is calling for a McDonald's boycott if the fast-food chain does not take down a Spanish-language billboard advertising iced coffee. Bogota Mayor Steve Lonegan said the advertisement is "offensive" and "divisive" because it sends a message that Hispanic im migrants do not need to learn English. "The true things that bind us together as neighbors and community is our belief in the American flag and our common language," Lonegan said. "And when McDonald's sends a different message, that we're going to be different now, that causes resentment." Representatives for ...

The ADL has been highly critical of a May 27 speech delivered by Rep. Steve King, an Iowa Republican, in which he argued that illegal immigrants have killed many more Americans since September 11, 2001, than were killed in the Al Qaeda attacks that day. King, who was speaking to a gathering of anti-immigration activists in Las Vegas, warned that we have a slow motion holocaust on our hands. In response, the ADLs director, Abraham ...

Immigration and Social Disintegration By Thomas E. Brewton To say that we're a nation of immigrants is not an argument for allowing Hispanics to impose their language and culture upon the United States. The message of this article is not that immigration is bad, but that immigration without assimilation linguistically and culturally is disastrous. Multi-cultural and PC education, along with the welfare state, could hardly have been designed more effectively (borrowing Walter Lippmann's phrase) to dissolve American society in the acids of modernity and immigration. If these remain in power and if immigration continues at the pace of recent years, the United States will ...

Fri Jul 7, 10:04 PM ET Two Latino radio hosts credited for mobilizing hundreds of thousands this year in pro-immigrant protests said on Friday they would join the drive to increase the Hispanic and immigrant vote in the 2008 U.S. presidential election. Los Angeles disc jockeys Piolin (Tweetybird) and El Cucuy (the Bogeyman) said they will work with the National Council of La Raza and other organizations to push Latino immigrants living in the United States to become U.S. citizens and register to vote in time to cast ballots in 2008.
