City in Texas ...to keep out illegal immigrants,

Broken Borders, near the bottom of the page.

Illegals, undocumented immigrants, over 300,000 strong in North Carolina alone. Some of these people here illegally work in our hospitals and many work in the food industry and since they are illegally here we have no idea if they even have proper inoculations against serious communicable diseases.

Not to mention the threat of the criminal element that has found safe haven across the borders. Drugs, prostitution, gang violence and larcenies have all spiked in the statistical examinations by the authorities. For instance 95 percent of all outstanding homicide warrants in Los Angeles were against illegal immigrants. Two thirds of the 17,000 outstanding felony warrants in LA are for illegals. 500,000 illegals are currently in prison for serious offenses such as rape, murder, kidnapping and other serious felonies.

It is a well known fact that chartered busses make their way to North Carolina full of illegals because of the ease of obtaining a driver's license here. Shame on us for not protecting our nation against such a serious breach in national security. Many of these licenses are used for illegitimate activities.


US Attorney Frank Whitney recently found and arrested 50 some illegals working at the Goldsboro military airbase, illegals have also been found and 27 of them were arrested servicing commercial airplanes in Greensboro, many with forged credentials, meaning the repairs done to the aircraft being serviced, was being done by someone that may or may not have the experience to do the job properly. We had no idea who these people were around these airplanes and yet I have to take off my shoes to fly.

Why is it no one seems to care? The state of North Carolina has one deportation agent to handle the entire state's illegal immigrants. ONE AGENT!

We all welcome the immigrants that found citizenship and shelter here through proper channels. I am not too sure we are of the mind to welcome those who have illegally lied their way onto the short payroll lists and have left behind a long tab at the hospitals, schools and social services agencies as they bring new lives into our country. The UNC Hospital System reported in 2002 34% of all births were born to Latino mothers, 24% of all infants admitted to the hospital were Latinos. I am also not too sure that we are of the mind to turn a blind eye to Federal Government's lack of enforcement of existing laws protecting our Nation's security.

It's not going to get better by itself.

Why was it that people were shouting that it was the fault of businesses who hired illegal immigrants that they come here and the landlords that knowingly rent to them, and now that communities are doing something about this from the ground up it's being decried???
I also have major issues with the legal Mexican and latino citizens here who protest these laws on the grounds of discrimination or anything like that. It has nothing to do with race, only legal status. Nobody should say they are being 'alienated' because illegal aliens of their race are now having the law applied to them.

And so the price of American grocery store produce increased 20% or more because America needs 1,800,000 immigrant workers and will only license 29,000 - due to racist laws.

Meanwhile, some should first learn facts. Massive increases in crime are occurring in Central America because America exports its gang crimes to those nations. Central America did not create the Bloods and Crypts. These are another American export.

But when emotion replaces 'first learning facts', then the myths claim crime is from illegal immigrants.

Illegal immigrants were recently rounded up in Swift packing factories. Why did those illegals have jobs? Because they all pay into Social Security and pay withholding taxes - that remain unclaimed. Reality is that illegals mean more money for government - a profit. But again, hate and emotion ignores reality to claim illegal immigrants live off American services.

The problem is that America needs million of legal immigrants. The only reason they must be illegal - we stupidly restrict the number using racist (emotional) reasons. But then if we made them legal, government would have to refund their withholding tax money. Then illegals would be granted what they deserve. Better to just call them nigger scum; take social security and taxes from them. Once that was called discrimination when people could see the difference between facts verses bias and hate.

America desperately needs those immigrants. A smarter America would eliminate silly numerical restrictions that make them illegal - that make them have to turn to criminals for support.
