Myths and Lies of Illegal Immigration

[Vicious cycle]

1. Non-Citizen does not mean illegal alien.
2. Illegal aliens do NOT get welfare.
3. They do work americans don't wan't to touch.

1.Calling an illegal alien an undocumented immigrant is like calling a burglar an uninvited house guest.

2.The 1996 Welfare Reform Act may have erected barriers to a non-citizen's eligibility for SSI(Supplemental Security Income), but it did not come close to ending it. The very group Congress sought to make ineligible for SSI, people who may have entered the U.S. illegally but through a series of happy accidents permanently reside here under color of law ("PRUCOL" aliens), has been able to hold on to SSI eligibility through a combination of lawyering and lobbying. In addition, whether or not the original illegal alien is eligible for welfare or not doesn't nessasarialy matter. Any children they may have on U.S. soil automatically become U.S. citizans making them eligible for education, WELFARE and any other service you can think of at taxpayer expense.

3.Between 4 and 6 million jobs have shifted to the underground economy since 1990. These are not “jobs Americans won’t do, but rather jobs Americans used to do.“

4.It's estimated that approximately 5 million illegal workers (one-quarter of illegal aliens) are collecting wages on a cash basis and are avoiding income taxes.

The United States is the "Melting Pot", but we are a nation of laws and those laws must be followed.

UA_Iron is correct in his assesment of illegal aliens basically taking over some States in this country.

etc. etc.

The government already knows all this.

They CHOOSE not to do anything (while putting on a facade that they are) cuz they require those hispanic votes.

yesterday's US citizen kids of illegals .. are now in government and can vote.

Illegal aliens from 1996, all 2.3 milion of them, got amnesty and can now vote as well.

Add it up.

This lobbying and voting power is getting bigger and bigger. Soon NO politician can be elected in california if he doesn't run on a pro-illegal, no borders, campaign.

These people who came -- obviously want to remove barriers so they can bring their other family members here too. And so on.

The floodgates have opened and it's too late now to try and close it.

The end result is ... americans are moving out of certain areas and away from these illegals. Which is what is happening in heavily divided Los Angeles where the exodus of middle class people to Arizona and Nevada has been going on for years now.

And these areas .. devoid of the middle class americans .. are slowly turning back into Mexico. The same shithole they came from.

This is the new America.

Even if the flood gates have opened, I don't believe it's too late to stop it. Ideally, all of the illegal aliens in the US right now would be deported, realistically, I don't believe that will happen.

BUT - we can stop the flow and prevent more illegals from entering the country. We need to demonstrate to our lawmakers that the vast majority of americans want strong border controls. We can support groups like the Minutemen Project and support those rare elected officials that do dare to take a stand against the pro-illegal lobby. Folks like Rep. Tom Tancredo from Colorado.

The heart of the issue is the availability of benefits such as welfare to illegals. Take that away and behavior changes.

Interesting prison stats. Scary.

Mexico is a poor country. the corrupt ones always are.

Our former whore sucking mayor decided she was going to invite a dozen Somali refugees to Maine. She told the locals that the relocation program was funded by grants (not true).

There are now 1700 Somali's living in a small Maine town using the General Assistance fund for living expenses. Even worse, the Somali's figured out how to obtain welfare using a loophole that allows foreign refugees access to continuous payments without having to show proof of attempts to gain actual employment.

And....they told their families back in Africa how to obtain money...so another 1000 have applied to come here.

But downtown Lewiston and Portland are looking like downtown Mogadishu these days.

That is so weird.

That is so weird.

In a state that is 99.99999999999% white....it's bizarre..

Even worse, the City of Lewiston tried to send 200 Somali's to Lisbon Maine.
The town of Lisbon was pissed because Tommy Fields was from Lisbon...before he was killed in downtown Mogadishu..

He was one of two Rangers who dropped into the compound where Michael Durant's downed helicopter crashed.

Some of the Somali's here admitted to being members of Aidid's clan.

Weird? Fucked up!

Mexican mom gives birth in BP helicopter

By Analilia Esparza
ARIZONA DAILY STAR

Elva Hernández never imagined she'd give birth to a son in a medical helicopter flying over the Arizona desert.

The 29-year-old woman, who was seven months' pregnant, felt contractions and went into labor after walking in the heat, rain and in the cold of night for nearly 20 hours as she and her family tried to illegally enter the United States.

Hernández, her children and her husband were abandoned by a smuggler soon after she went into labor.

Last Sunday, she gave birth in the helicopter minutes after being rescued by U.S. Border Patrol agents.

She and the premature baby, Christian, a new U.S. citizen, were taken to Tucson's University Medical Center. The infant is stable, but remains in intensive care. Hernández left the hospital Tuesday.

"It's a miracle that we're alive," said Hernández, a native of Jalapa, Veracruz. Her husband, Primitivo Bautista, 32, and their two older sons, Alejandro, 14, and Daniel, 12, along with their niece, Luz María Hernández, 12, were staying at the Ronald McDonald House last week awaiting Christian's release.

The Mexican consul in Tucson arranged their stay at the house, which provides no-cost temporary shelter to families of children with special medical needs.

The cost of Christian's medical care is still unknown, said UMC spokeswoman Katie Riley. But with neonatal emergency-room care costs of up to $3,000 a day, the total can mount quickly.

If the family can't pay the bill, it will be absorbed by the hospital and passed on to consumers and taxpayers.

It's a cost American citizens shouldn't have to pay, said Wes Bramhall, president of Arizona Immigration Control, an organization opposed to illegal immigration and immigration reform.

"We cannot accept all these people crossing into this country to give birth to babies. She was seven months' pregnant. … She should have stayed in her country and given birth in Mexico," said Bramhall.

He blamed Mexico's economic failures and the U.S. failure to enforce its immigration laws for the situation.

William N. Johnston, who heads the Department of Homeland Security's Office of Citizenship and Immigration Services in Tucson, said Christian's birth on U.S. soil makes him a U.S. citizen under the 14th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.

When the child turns 21, he can petition to legally bring his parents and siblings to the United States.

The solution is "a humane law" to help people who are already here be reunited with their families without risking their lives, said Jose Matus, director of the Tucson-based human-rights group Derechos Humanos.

"It's an unfortunate part of U.S. policies," said Matus. "If the law would permit her to stay and work she would pay her hospital fees and the taxpayers wouldn't have anything to complain about. But instead she will be deported with the newborn."
