People Protesting for Illegal Immigrants

People make a big deal of how 500,000 people protested in LA to protect the "rights" of the illegal immigrants.

Yes, this is definitely a lot of people!

However, how many of those 500,000 people were illegal immigrants? Who we were going to start calling felons!

How many MORE people would we have protesting if we decided to outlaw Christianity? How many MORE people would we have protesting if we decided that we were going to make people dealing in sexually oriented areas FELONS? How many more people would we have protesting if we decided that the food stamp program should be discontinued?

I dare to say that if any of those situations happened, we would easily exceed the 500,000 protesting in Los Angeles. And we would DEFINITELY have more people across the US protesting!

But the main difference would be, in all of those cases, we would be taking a legal privilege/right, and making it illegal!

In the current protests, we are doing nothing more than emphasizing that illegal behaviour is still illegal behaviour.

Many arguments are thrown out by the protestors:
  1. Americans are anti-immigrant
  2. Americans are racist against hispanics
  3. This country (SW US area) is traditionally Spanish and belongs to us
  4. This policy will break apart families

Well, let me address these issues...

  1. I am not anti-immigrant, in fact, my wife and step-daughter are both immigrants! I fully support LEGAL immigration.
  2. Racist? I love my family, who ALL have at least 1/4 Hispanic and 1/4 Japanese blood. Oh my gosh! My wife is 1/2 Japanese and 1/2 South American Latino! Ruh roh, I've got Irish, English, French and Indian (american type) blood IN ME!!! Better figure which one of those nationalities I am and kick all the rest out!
  3. Your country? Since when have we had a border dispute with Mexico? Of course, even so, we have it, we hold it, we improved it, so no, it is NOT yours! And if it WAS yours, than the people there would have voted a long time ago to join Mexico. Remember the Mexican/American war? You lost!
  4. Who cares? Nobody told these immigrants to come here illegally KNOWING that they could be deported at any time, and said, "Hey, fall in love with that person, and marry them!" Children born and raised here? Fine, we are not separating the family, we are simply deporting an illegal immigrant. You can feel free to take your family with you.

These protests are bogus in that I feel that a VERY high percentage are illegals who are simply afraid of the US actually ENFORCING existing laws. They have lived here KNOWING that they are here illegally, and KNOWING that they could be deported at any time, and these protests are simply to show that they won't allow us to enforce our own laws, in our own country, without a fight.

Oh, the school children walking out of school? How many of THEM were illegals?

Immigrants, I welcome you with open arms! Illegals, if they ever allow it, I will shoot you on sight! I detest you, I detest your ignorance, and I detest your mightier than though because I'm getting away with breaking the law!

Vuelve te a su propio pais!!
