Laughable!

As you may assume, I spend time surfing the blogosphere. I usually land on right leaning blogs, but sometimes I'll visit left leaning blogs to see what's up in their little utopia. Well, my friend Sara sent me a link to this blog, and rather than getting upset, I just laughed. While I don't pretend to be a pulizter worthy writer, I DO put some thought into what I write, and in many cases, do at least a little research. Not so for this blogger:
Why do we always single out immigrants from Mexico? If we are completely honest with ourselves, we’re probably not that concerned about immigrants from Europe or even Asia. The new immigration law SB 1070 passed in Arizona was directed only at immigrants from Mexico and no one else. That’s why it will lead to racial profiling. I’m sorry but that’s the truth. They’re not looking for immigrants from Canada in Arizona. If you have darker skin and speak Spanish, people begin asking questions. So let’s stop running around the truth and man up to our prejudices.

Northern states like Wisconsin are not going to follow Arizona in passing similar legislation because there is no reason to. This is why all immigration policy must be determined by the federal government.
Ummm - excuse me? Have you actually read the bill, or are you like those in our administration who feel it necessary to comment on what they THINK is in the bill without actually reading it? You see, I've read the bill - it really doesn't take very long - go ahead...you can find it here! Now anyone who actually takes the time to read it will see that NOWHERE in that bill is there any mention of race or ethnicity. The bill refers only to "aliens" or "persons".

You see, my blogger friend, not ALL of the illegals who come across the border are Mexican. They are of all nationalities and all ethnicities. They include murderers, drug traffickers and let's not forget about terrorists who want nothing but to kill innocent Americans. The use the Mexican border because they all know that the American government doesn't give a sh*t about protecting the border. The government is more concerned about prosecuting those who are putting their lives on the line to attempt to protect us than they are about stopping the influx of illegals to this country.

Just one more thing. The federal government HAS determined an immigration policy...they just refuse to enforce it!! This is why Arizona had to do for themselves what the feds won't. This is also why many other states are following in thier footsteps. If the feds refuse to enforce the law, it's up to the states to protect their citizens.

Simply put, that post is laugable.

UPDATE: The Department of Homeland Security is alerting Texas authorities to be on the lookout for a suspected member of the Somalia-based Al Shabaab terrorist group who might be attempting to travel to the U.S. through Mexico, a security expert who has seen the memo tells FOXNews.com

  1. I am opposed to illegal immigration period. What part of illegal don't they understand?

  2. I agree wholeheartedly. I have said repeatedly that I am not anti-immigration, I am anti-ILLEGAL immigration. I also think that we need to make the process for coming here legally a little less daunting, but be that as it may, illegal is illegal. Period.
