The Birds: Author Unknown

I do not know the original author of this piece, but I agree wholeheartedly. It came as a forward in my morning email today from a friend who normally doesn't usually care all that much about the invasion. Perhaps yesterday's lunacy has raised the hackles of more fence-sitters. I certainly hope so:

I bought a bird feeder. I hung it on my back porch and filled it with seed.

Within a week we had hundreds of birds taking advantage of the continuous flow of free and easily accessible food. But then the birds started building nests in the boards of the patio, above the table, and next to the barbecue.

Then came the poop. It was everywhere: on the patio tile, the chairs, the table...everywhere. Then some of the birds turned mean: They would dive bomb me and try to peck me even though I had fed them out of my own pocket. And others birds were boisterous and loud: They sat on the feeder and squawked and screamed at all hours of the day and night and demanded that I fill it when it got low on food. After a while, I couldn't even sit on my own back porch anymore. I took down the bird feeder and in three days the birds were gone.

I cleaned up their mess and took down the many nests they had built all over the patio. Soon, the back yard was like it used to be...quiet, serene and no one demanding their rights to a free meal.

Now lets see...our government gives out free food, subsidized housing, free medical care, free education and allows anyone born here to be a automatic citizen. Then the illegals came by the tens of thousands. Suddenly our taxes went up to pay for free services; small apartments are housing 5 families: you have to wait 6 hours to be seen by an emergency room doctor; your child's 2nd grade class is behind other schools because over half the class doesn't speak English. Corn Flakes now come in a bilingual box; I have to press "one" to hear my bank talk to me in English, and people waving flags other than "Old Glory" are squawking and screaming in the streets, demanding more rights and free liberties.

Maybe it's time for the government to take down the bird feeder.

Yesterday was another example of how inhospitable to its owners our leaders are making "America's back porch." But it's still nothing that some consistent, dedicated effort cannot overcome - no matter what the sad sack in the White House might say to the contrary.

Happy Socialist, Anarchist, Illegal Alien Day

I'm not going to get a chance to post much on this new day of arrogance. I've let my U.S. Senator from Cuba know I loathe him. I've ranted to a few friends who still don't see the threat that the interlopers pose to their children, and I wrote one comment on a blog.

That's what I'm copying over here. First, I'll repost the original pabulum:

howl

Count my voice among those who are today marching and asking for a path to citizenship for immigrants in this country. Look, I know they broke the law by coming here (I won't even get into how suspect it is for countries to set their own laws on immigration and expect citizens of another country to just follow them), but what right do we have to demand that they not enter our borders? For all America is doing wrong, it is still the most free country in the world and the one most able to provide a good life for its inhabitants. How can we expect people to not come to this country if we can offer them such a better life than the one they have in other countries? How can we, and especially myself and other Christians, tell people to not come to us even though we can help them? Since when is the saying on the Statue of Liberty about "bring me your huddled masses..." a epithet without meaning?

Too often we americans forget that our history is, in certain areas, largely one of breaking laws and theft and questionable citizenship. We stole land from the indians and just arbitrarily said it was ours; it's not like we Americans were the first ones on the scene here. We fought wars to gain our own independence because we believed that America could hold a better life. We welcomed immigrants from Europe from the thousands, laying the groundwork for the America we have today with our rich differing cultures and dialects and traditions. We are not a nation of indigenous peoples. We are a nation built on a history of huddled masses, immigrants, poverty-stricken farmers, religious freedom-seekers, soldiers, land-grabbers, and dreamers.

How can we deny anyone else in this whole world the same thing? Happy May Day, everyone.




Katie's Dad said...

When Emma Lazarus rises from the dead and proves she was a founding father, not some PR-Stunt poetry contest winner, then I might have a thimble of compassion for an illegal alien. But probably not then, either. For she was nothing more than a foil for a newspaperman's quest for profit. No figure in American history is more over-promoted. It's just sick to base policy that determines who we are, and what sort of fate-in-nation awaits our ancestors, upon that blithering tripe of a poem. Really.

Being romantically distracted by baseless ideals while deadly serious issues like sovereignty and societal cohesiveness are at stake is the epitome of stupidity.

Instead, I'm informed by Thomas Jefferson who wrote:"In proportion to their numbers, they will share with us the legislation. They will infuse into it their spirit, warp and bias its direction, and render it a heterogeneous, incoherent, distracted mass."

George Washington said, prescriptively: "Citizens, by birth or choice, of a common country, that country has a right to concentrate your affections. The name of American, which belongs to you in your national capacity, must always exalt the just pride of patriotism more than any appellation derived from local discriminations. With slight shades of difference, you have the same religion, manners, habits, and political principles."

John Jay wrote, also prescriptively: "I have as often taken notice that Providence has been pleased to give this one connected country to one united people -- a people descended from the same ancestors, speaking the same language, professing the same religion, attached to the same principles of government, very similar in their manners and customs, and who, by their joint counsels, arms, and efforts, fighting side by side throughout a long and bloody war, have nobly established general liberty and independence.

"This country and this people seem to have been made for each other, and it appears as if it was the design of Providence, that an inheritance so proper and convenient for a band of brethren, united to each other by the strongest ties, should never be split into a number of unsocial, jealous, and alien sovereignties."


As a Christian, you'd be better served by thinking about the plight of the people these interloping opportunists leave behind; the poverty they exacerbate back home; the broken families; the elderly with no youth to support them in a a community; the tacit support your compassion gives to despots who are relieved to see the departure of those who are most physically able to threaten their corrupt status quo; and, most importantly, the detrimental impact upon the futures of America's children that such an unprecedented influx surely portends. Do you ever think about that stuff? Or has the romanticism for the "needy other" completely made you blind to
the needs and best interests of your own?

Is it OK if one in five of our residents has no connection to, empathy for or sense of stewardship on behalf of those who fought and bled and died to start this grand experiment? Even if that assures that heritage is erased? And even if the loss of that heritage puts an end to the experiment?

If so, please send your kids to schools built in the shadow of your new Tower of Babel; but, please, make provisions for mine to go to schools in which english is the only language allowed to be spoken. While you're at it, give my little girl a place to grow up in which this nation's sense of Providence is allowed to thrive without being held hostage to the influence of those who would sell it all out on a whim.

I was tempted to beat the author up over his asinine "we stole the land from the indians" crap, but I figured he'd not be able to digest any additional de-programming thoughts in one post.

Something Bush Won't Ask an Iowan

I'm still amazed at the gutters into which this this rat-bastard we've elected President will slither to pander to people who do not belong here in his unceasing effort to transmogrify the nation of my ancestors into a third-world cesspool. And here it is reported that he's found some new pond scum to fertilize:

Bush seeks grads' help on immigration - Yahoo! News

Bush gave the commencement address at Miami Dade College, where more than half the students were raised speaking a language other than English. He gave the Class of 2007 an assignment: Tell their elected representatives in Washington to get going on immigration legislation. "You see every day the values of hard work, and family, and faith that immigrants bring," the president said. "This experience gives you a special responsibility to make your voices heard." Bush said the immigration system is deeply broken: Employers are not held accountable enough; borders are not secure enough; businesses need workers willing to do low-paying jobs; and the 12 million people estimated to be in the U.S. illegally cannot all be deported and so must be dealt with "without amnesty and without animosity."

Obviously, this son of a bitch would never give such a speech to youth at a community college in Iowa! Why is he asking first-generation Americans, those who have a Cubanisimo-warped sense of nation and almost zero exposure to people who are descended from American patriots, to play a pivotal role in immigration reform? Why will he not ask the same of people who have a sense of American stewardship? And, as Jake correctly points out, why will he not lead us an open and honest debate among all citizens to be the means of deciding the solution - with all real options placed on the table?

(Hint: It would take "leadership" and he wouldn't get what he wants)

Here's another nagging question: Why does this prickish waste of the "conservative" mantle get a free pass from the media to mouth garbage like the " they cannot all be deported" fallacy when every other utterance of his gets picked apart like road-kill beset upon by vultures? God forbid the media ever call him on it and let news consumers know about the effectiveness of "attrition through enforcement."

President Bush, what the f**k makes the poorly-Americanized offspring of immigrants more special to you than my child? What you are saying to these graduates is that they have more value to you than children in my family who share my ancestry.

Mr. President, you make me sick.

Core Principles: Duty to our similars and our families

Today, I'm passing on a quote of mine from Jake's comments in response to a post about the Heritage Foundation's latest findings about the costs we all bear thanks to illegal aliensa and their enablers:
It's unconscionable that we have American kids being shortchanged by schools beset by the challenges imposed upon them by increasing numbers of illegal aliens. Perhaps the most lamentable travesties occur every time an American child is denied the opportunity to achieve the best results that his or her abilities might allow because the children of alien criminals forced costs shifts or social discordance in a public school.

How many American children must have their lives permanently altered for the worse before their plight starts to matter to those who misplace their compassion only with interlopers while ignoring the needs and futures of our native sons and daughters?
For me, this gets to the crux of the matter of both illegal and mass immigration. I believe that those who promote the mass movement of cheap labor and demand amnesty for huge masses of foreigners do so for reasons that have nothing to do with the best interests of today's American children or its future generations. Coincidentally, while human nature holds imperative the need for us to place our families, tribes and familiars first, we see similar self-defeating movements taking root in every nation that is a part of Western Civilization.

Why is this bizarre form of self-destruction not happening to any other set of brethren cultures on earth? Is the "white man's burden" so toxic that it demands our own end?

It takes an incredible amount of greed, ignorance and calculated misindoctrination of those susceptible for such a culturally-immolating set of ideas to become established and considered normal in common discourse. As I see it, these efforts to supplant the peoples of Western Civilization with people erroneously assumed to be "more compliant" to the desires of ruling elites are the most conspicuous evils ever perpetrated by groups of people against their similars and families.

I'd rather not think it of my fellow man, but can it really be that people raised in the crucible of liberty have become mere inconvenient obstacles to instant profit gratification now that elites have discovered that willing dupes are available for import?

Demographers Bassackward

This is laughable:

Census: Immigration helps big metros - 04/05/2007 - MiamiHerald.com

"Immigrants are filling the void as domestic migrants are seeking opportunities in other places," said Mark Mather, a demographer at the Population Reference Bureau, a private research organization.
Might it ever occur to demographers that a big reason for the "void" is the characteristic "otherness" of the very influx of immigrants they suggest that cities need? Here, and in most current dialog regarding immigrants and cities in America, demographic cause and effect are presented as ass-backwards as possible by "experts."

For a counter-example, here is my own experience: I truly loved my hometown while growing up and as a young adult in S. Florida as it morphed from a small city into part of a vital coastal megalopolis. But in recent years, thanks to bad immigration policy and lax enforcement of law, the character and culture of the growth factors took a turn for the worse. My family and I came to view the large foreign-born population infusion as not a healthy or neighborly benefit at all; rather, we learned it presented contrary belief system wedges that frequently made us uncomfortable in our own home. When culture, language and heritage are first challenged by others in a subtle manner and eventually overtly denigrated by ungrateful "wretched refuse," something has to give.

And in our case, it was us who gave in and fled. The rapid demographic shift fomented such a cultural arrogance on the part of the newcomers that living there became intolerable. Our reaction to mass immigration is not unique, it is prevalent and growing.

It only takes quick a look through my old MS Outlook contacts and retired Rolodex cards to see the obvious: I held out hope for my former home a lot longer than most of my high school classmates, college friends and former business associates. The exodus of my social and business cohort from South Florida was caused by the "otherness" of alien immigrants and our correct perception of their disrespect for our way of life, and that of our ancestors. Now our replacement population shows every intention of remaining allegiant-in-diaspora to their former homelands through the generations.

I'd like to tell the demographers where they can stick their asinine assumptions.

The article continues:
Advocates for stricter immigration laws question whether a stable, or even a shrinking population, is bad.

"Don't we have concerns about congestion and sprawl and pollution?" asked Steven A. Camarota, director of research at the Center for Immigration Studies, which advocates for stricter immigration policies.

"Maybe those metro areas should think about what it would take to make Americans want to live there," Camarota said.
If only our leaders understood that this last point is far more important to cities' health than importing cheap labor that spurs the rancor that accompanies diversity and multiculturalism. I suppose the onerous aspects of mass immigration are felt more keenly by those of us who were raised to believe, correctly, that a nation exists to promote and strengthen its culture; that is has a duty to honor ancestral legacy; and that it carries a prescription for a pathway to assure that there remains a birthright legacy for future generations to cherish.

It is traditional Conservative impulses that lead people to flee cities inflicted with the results of the mass-immigrationist mentality, regardless of the evacuees' political persuasion. The unwelcomed replacement of Americans in metropolis should serve as a forewarning that all is not well with the status quo.

Screw political correctness. This invasion must end.

A Troll Gets His Due

I've been following, and participating, in a tit-for-tat with a troll who has taken up residence at FreedomFolks using the nom-de-keyboard "hannitized." He's not really worthy of the level of respect I usually demand to bring up such lunacy; he ran away from this blog's comment section after I made it clear that he would not be allowed to post non-sequitur and/or nonsensical Leftist links to make his feeble points. I'll not be a party to driving traffic, and its related profit, to the DailyKos or Indymedia crowd. The only reason I bring him up now is that this troll's comments serve as the archetype evil for anyone who is trying to make a point about the vital dangers of multiculturalism, the cultural emptiness of diversity, and the inescapable primacy of tribal instinct - hard-coded into human nature - that makes promoting a too-heterogeneous society so horrifically wrong.

A couple of weeks ago, I decided that it was beneath my standards to address this quasi-sentient infestation directly at my friends' blog, so I began to comment on his comments in the third person. I also assumed a mocking tone and made every effort to find a more appropriate moniker for him. Eventually, I settled on "hispandertized" because it best described his position on most things: He's got a monumental inferiority complex that exhibits itself in puffed-up "my people are superior to your people, but your people STOLE OUR LANDS and made us less great than we ought to be" attitude. Every time another "American-by-technicality" is born into a family like that which begat this hispantertized pathogen, there is made another weak link in the chain that binds Americans together.

We are made less when such trolls have sex, except with themselves.

What's most laughable, and sad, about Jake's week-kneed little parasite is that he really doesn't know to what tribe he belongs. Sometimes he's a Spaniard, sometimes he's an indigenous Mexica, sometimes he's a Native American. But never, no never, is he an American - even though ours is the nation to which he was born, and he probably would swear to which he remains allegiant. But his rantings betray him. He hates America. He hates it's origins. He hates anything that might be a byproduct of Western Civilization's success especially if its origin is even tangentially Anglo Saxon.

But he loves all things Mexican.

Mexico's indigenous tribes can do no wrong in his book. America would be best served if that third-world nation's people could freely retake the lands America won, then purchased 150 years ago. To him, the "indigenous peoples" still own it depite the fact that the mythical lands of Atzlan were Mexican territory for barely a quarter-century before America fought and won them in a war. Most of us know that reconquista is not a salient point of view for a true American; however, it is an unwavering belief for most Mexicans.

Hispandertized is walking, talking proof that some tribes just will never assimilate fully to the American way. The longer we allow the alien invasion, particularly from our south, to proceed at such breakneck pace, the harder it will be for this nation to remain unified throughout its next generations. I have to thank this troll for being exemplar of how foolishly wrong the notion that "all peoples are compatible with American ideals" really is.

Seeing that hispandertized lives to browbeat us with the wonders and moral superiority of the indegnous people's of Mexico, I thought I'd close with an brilliant example of those "wonders."

Enjoy:

Mordida, Bribes - Some Things in Mexico Seem To Never Change

In Chiapas, the Chamula Indians obligate their tribesmen to be members of the ruling PRI party. Anyone in the tribe who prefers membership in a different party or even criticizes the PRI is ostracized and driven from their tribal lands. The PRI maintains this loyalty by providing the Chamulas with the Coca Cola franchise for the region. Big time mordida.



When creatures like hispandertized call me a "racist," it's confirmation that I'm correct in my analysis of the alien invasion. How ironic is it that he cannot acknowledge the tribal preference for one's own kind that motivates him! Only someone filled with equal parts hate for his nation and self-loathing would invade someone else's Internet domain, build a soapbox there and do nothing but berate the virtual townsfolk who happen by.

The Open-Border Asshats' Conundrum

First, the standard asshattery:


Dueling LA immigration rallies mark anniversary of massive march

"We all know this is Mexican land," he said. "They didn't cross the border. The border crossed them."

Now, my questions:

Would any of these low-lifes be here without the accomplishments of British protestants based on their innovative ideas about the potentialities of liberated man? Would there be cause for alien presence if first colonists, then the intrepid American settlers, did not spread European values and culture forged over hundreds of generations, what we now call Western civilization, and create this nation and all that it is? Would there be a "Federal Building" for them to despoil with their presence? Would there be any reason for these people to be at that spot on God's good earth?

No.

Or, are they just here for our "stuff" because they have no contemporary history of being able to do it on their own?

Yes.

The border crossed them, my ass.

Attrition Strategy: Phased Redeployment

Jeff Jacoby, ersatz "Conservative" for the Boston Globe, writes another wee bit of tripe today about illegal aliens. He relies on the old canard "we can't deport them all! there are too many!" Which is really getting tiresome to read considering there are 237 THOUSAND references to the attrition strategy on Google.

I don't know if Jeffy took a shrill pill before writing this drivel, but I'd like to set him straight.

What if we deport them all? - The Boston Globe

"Some 1.2 million illegals are believed to work in construction," Holman Jenkins wrote in the Wall Street Journal last June. "If the cost of home building goes up, demand goes down: Less wood is sold, fewer nails, fewer power tools, fewer pickup trucks. Contractors would make less profit; ergo, Harley-Davidson would sell fewer Road Kings with all the chrome and finery."

Lord know's we've tried to explain the idea of getting most illegal aliens to leave by choice via enforcement-compelled attrition: Start enforcing the law and the jobs will disappear; if the jobs disappear, millions will leave as they did in the 1950s when Eisenhower succeeded in ending the problem of illegal immigration then. Perhaps because the word "attrition" is often used as a military term that connotes we're winning, the Leftists just can't get it and the Neo-Conservatives have no stomach for it because it suggests we aren't winning fast enough.

Let me try to put this in the language that both a Leftist (or one posing as a conservative like Jacoby) and a Neo-Conservative will understand. We need to implement a strategy of "phased redeployment" of our valiant illegal immigrant criminals. Over a five-year period, I propose we shift the majority to Mexico, some to other South and Central American Nations, some to Ireland and still other smaller groups to various nations around the globe. Their redeployment destinations will be dependent on their knowledge of the language and customs of the nation to which they go. For the Leftist, this is a benefit because it creates a wedge within the populations of poorer nations who can later be recruited to assist Leftist American youth who arrive to do their Peace Corp stints. For the Neo-Conservative, it creates a core bloc of potential insurgents who can be recruited by the CIA when the next Wilsonian President with "we can democratize the world" delusions is elected.

On the home front, the five-year-plan goes as follows: A blue ribbon panel investigates which types of businesses are employing illegal aliens, which should take all of about 15 minutes using the data already collected both by government agencies and by private foundations. From this list, they create a schedule working backwards from the five-year deadline that allocates Border Patrol and ICE business enforcement resources in an ever-increasing web of pressure on companies that are skirting our laws. The final list will start with the business types with the fewest illegal aliens in their work forces and provides for enforcement resources to be ratcheted up over four and a half years, finally getting to the business types with the most illegal aliens in their work forces in year five.

Why four and a half years of enforcement activity, not five? Simple. The first six months is the publicity phase; we advertise and promote the schedule the panel creates so that the businesses are all given fair warning and roughly know when their "deadline" is for getting illegal aliens off of their under-the-table payrolls. This should make the transition as orderly as possible. These businesses relied on American labor at some time in the recent past, and they will have to get used to a less slave-like work force again. And their prevailing wages will have to go up.

I know it will be tough for construction companies to again see themselves as pathways to the middle class for young and less skilled Americans, but I know that we can do this. It will take some time for our hospitals to get used to not having an overflow of non-paying patients in their emergency rooms, but I have faith they'll get through it. I don't know what they'll do in California when they stop having to build one new school a day and gang members are as easy to spot as a red wine spill on a white carpet, but the Americans there have always been a hearty lot. Maybe they'll have to call Dr. Phil to console all of those state legislators who lost their power bases and probably won't be re-elected. But I never said this would be painless.

Setting things right after letting them be wrong for so long is never painless.

Bush's Mexican Sell-Out Redux

Bush's goal regarding "migration" for this hemisphere, as made crystal clear by his remarks the other day, can only result in the growth of a metastatic fifth-column of those who while being technically "American citizens" will pledge their allegiance to Mexico.

Linknzona (newly added to my blogroll) noted that several bloggers have posted Bush's promise to the Mexican people to do all he can to grant amnesty under the guise of "comprehensive immigration reform." I published an article on March 13 as did TBC here, and Linknzona here.

My comments on Linknzona's March 13 post are repeated, at his request, here, and at his site:

"Over at my blog, I've expressed similar outrage regarding Bush's commitments to Mexican citizens. As soon as I read what he said, it started the wheels turning; there was so much concern on the part of the founding fathers about the risks involved in allowing foreign interests to influence this nation's sovereign responsibilities.

The first five Federalist Papers were warnings against allowing alien interests too much say in our affairs. Jefferson expounded in Notes on Virginia similarly. I knew there was a lot of source material out there that would, when placed in juxtaposition to Bush's words in Mexico, reveal why this president has become a threat to our sovereignty and a possible scourge who will be reviled by future generations of Americans. If he gets his way on Amnesty, his legacy will be to be remembered as the man who forced us to take the first big step toward our nation's dissolution.

After looking through my favorite historical quotes, I decided that George ashington gave us the best example to use for determining what's wrong with this president. He said in his farewell address:

"Against the insidious wiles of foreign influence (I conjure you to believe me, fellow-citizens) the jealousy of a free people ought to be constantly awake, since history and experience prove that foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of republican government. But that jealousy, to be useful, must be impartial, else it becomes the instrument of the very influence to be avoided, instead of a defense against it. Excessive partiality for one foreign nation and excessive dislike of another cause those whom they actuate to see danger only on one side, and serve to veil and even second the arts of influence on the other. Real patriots who may resist the intrigues of the favorite are liable to become suspected and odious, while its tools and dupes usurp the applause and confidence of the people to surrender their interests."

Bush sounds more like a man who thinks of himself as president of the Western Hemisphere, not of our sovereign nation. I believe that were Washington, Jay, Madison and Hamilton here today, they'd conclude that this man is behaving as a traitor and fight to have him removed from office.

It's tough to swallow, but his words and actions really have sunk to the depths of treason."
Others are expressing outrage in the Blogosphere, here, here, here, here and here, for a start. There are a lot of folks who are appalled by these comments. I imagine it's really hard to finally wake up and realize the president you supported and voted for doesn't care about you or your nation at all.

Ruining The Jobs That Americans Do

I've got to give credit to Arizona Republic columnist Robert Robb for picking through another spew from the Pew Hispanic Center. What he found was surely not made clear by the study's authors; it had to have been found in the data. That's a lot more work than I'm used to seeing reporters do.

Every other article I can find about the study, and even the Pew press release, sings the praises of our great labor saviors who only do the jobs Americans won't do, or that the Mexican government deems that black Americans are incapable of doing. Here, it becomes clear that Pew found out that both illegal aliens and low skilled legal immigrants are both taking American jobs and lowering wages in construction jobs, which used to be the bridge to the middle class for many Americans.

Not so much any more. Thanks to illegal aliens:


Tilting the labor market

Nowhere has the demand for construction labor increased faster than in Arizona. Yet, most construction jobs in Arizona now pay below the state's median hourly wage, which was not the case in 1990. A stagnant or declining price of something is not an indication of a shortage of it. Contrary to the contention of immigration liberals, in almost all cases illegal immigrants do compete with native-born workers. A previous Pew study attempted to ascertain the percentage of the workforce illegal immigrants represented in various job categories. The highest was insulation workers, at 36 percent. That means in virtually all job categories in which illegal immigrants are prominent, at least two-thirds of the workers are legal.

But this is where my kudos end. Robb goes on to end his piece with the standard drivel about how we cannot deport millions of illegals and even comes up with a new heartstring that he tugs generously.

Yep. There are lots of anchor babies and it would be wrong to deport the parents and leave the kids, even though we send the parents of American kids to prison every day for the crimes they commit and leave them with relatives or in foster care. It would be wrong to weigh down overburdened state foster care systems with these anchors. The direct answer to this is that the kids would have to go "home" with the parents until they reach the age of consent; then they can return, if they choose to do so.

That's the way things work.

It's Official: Bush Is A Mexican Mole

Today, our President revealed quite clearly what he is actually up to; he is serving as an agent for a foreign power.

I just don't see any other way to view crap like this:

Calderon tells Bush Mexico needs more - Yahoo! News

My pledge to you and your government, but more important to the people of Mexico, is I'll work as hard as I possibly can to pass comprehensive immigration reform," Bush said during a sun-splashed arrival ceremony that opened two days of meetings with Mexican President Felipe Calderon in this Yucatan Peninsula tourist haven.

This immediately brings to mind something George Washington said in his farewell address:


Against the insidious wiles of foreign influence (I conjure you to believe me, fellow-citizens) the jealousy of a free people ought to be constantly awake, since history and experience prove that foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of republican government. But that jealousy, to be useful, must be impartial, else it becomes the instrument of the very influence to be avoided, instead of a defense against it. Excessive partiality for one foreign nation and excessive dislike of another cause those whom they actuate to see danger only on one side, and serve to veil and even second the arts of influence on the other. Real patriots who may resist the intrigues of the favorite are liable to become suspected and odious, while its tools and dupes usurp the applause and confidence of the people to surrender their interests.
I think what is happening in this nation in regard to its leaders' odious relations with foreign states, Mexico in particular, is an imminent threat to us all. Washington was right. The "real patriots" surely those who speak out, and act out, against the outright corruptions in which Bush & Co. engage with nations to our south. Minutemen and those who support them are surely being cast as "suspected and odious." And Bush is counting on their being an ample supply of "tools and dupes."

I hope and pray that the son of a bitch does not find them.


UPDATE: TBC has more good stuff on this here. I find it fascinating that if we account for the time zone differential , we posted within a minute of each other. And we both called Bush a traitor. Great minds think alike!

The Stats Tell the Tale About Gangs

I'm not surprised that the LA Times pussyfoots around the issues and again fails to find a quote from someone, anyone, who will speak the truth: LA's gang problem is a direct result of its status as a sanctuary city.

Gang crackdown raises touchy issue - Los Angeles Times

The immigration agency began last month, for the first time, to identify deportable gang members.

For the month of February, 290 inmates at Los Angeles County jails were determined to be in this country illegally, and 24 of those, about 8%, were determined to be associated with street gangs.

A similar survey was done for the 816 inmates red-flagged in jails in the seven Southern California counties served by Hayes' office. That survey, which includes Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties, identified 59 gang members, or 7% of those facing deportation.

On any given day, Los Angeles County jails have about 19,500 inmates, including about 4,500 gang members, said Steve Whitmore, a Sheriff's Department spokesman. He said up to 25% of the inmates in the jail are believed to be foreign nationals.

Actually, I'd be more than happy to write LA off. I'd say let's wall it off in certain places and let Crips and the Craps kill each other off, but the bastards are exporting their criminal enterprises across the country. We've imported a culture that spawns dangerous subcultures that is being excused by local officials. The sooner we take this gang war out of the hands of LaRaza Mayor Villaraigosa, and let Americans of less politically correct persuasions put their boots down, the better.

Gates Sells Whine At Microsoft

It's a sad statement that one of this nation's greatest innovators has joined in our Plutocratic Overlords' quest for cheap labor.
FT.com / World / US & Canada - Gates warns on US immigration curbs
Mr Gates said he felt “deep anxiety” about the US’s ability to remain competitive if it did not act quickly to improve education, invest in basic science research, and reform its immigration ­policies.
The key fallacy here is that if Gates and his greedy globalist cohort get more labor via visa workers there will be no incentive for our bastions of higher learning to improve the educational lot of the average American. More visa slots means more chances to sell higher-priced tuitions to aliens - and that is where they will focus their efforts. Any "improvement" and new investment in research will disproportionately be skewed to benefit the very aliens who would come here on student visas knowing that there was a work visa waiting at the end of their educational journey. It's a closed loop that shuts American kids out. If there had never been a student visa program to begin with, we'd be growing our own engineers and scientist much more capably than we are today.

If the Visa programs were eliminated completely tomorrow, we'd not only start educating more American kids and force colleges to presssure state school systems to improve their results, we'd also stop making people who want to kill us more capable of doing so. When I was in school, there were tons of Iranians on my campus. My bet is that at least some of them are now involved in building nuclearn weapons for Iran. And how come nobody ever points out that Al Quaeda sorts are highly educated, many of whom have had their educations underwritten by the boneheaded leadership of Western nations that now can't seem to figure the proper way to define our war against radical Islam. Who cares if we look less magnanimous to the rest of the world? Does it really make them hate us less if we look helpful?

Uh. No.

It's not as if figuring this stuff out takes a rocket-science-level intellect; in fact, I'm sure that most Congresscritters know exactly the way this crap works. They just won't say it for fear that your knowing would hurt them.

Welcome to Another Cavalcade of Conservatism

Now, for another honor roll of Internet tidbits, blogging brilliance and other general Conservative crispness **:

LinknZona: From High Positions
At what point does [Bush's] stubbornness in disdain for his country and its supporters and in love for and support of a foreign power, Mexico, cause many American patriots to lose faith in their president? I don’t know, and I doubt if anyone does. But sometime between 9/11 and 2006 it happened. Many came to wonder how effective it was in protecting America to fight a war on terror in one part of the world and encourage everyone, including those same terrorists, to cross our borders at will.
Let's hope that enough people stop drinking the Kool Aid to stop this man of mundane intellect on a fools errand from ruining the nation we leave to our children.

Becoming American

The question of American national identity and the strength of our attachments to the American national community is, given our diversity, perhaps the most important domestic national question facing this country. Some dismiss these concerns as being based on “outdated theories.” Others urge Americans to accept other possible platforms for solidarity like “new diasporas, transnational civil society, and other identity groups” and the “thinning out of national ties” and argue that “it is time to accept an America . . . whose bonds are secondary to other forms of association.”

For the sake of the viability of this republic and its people and institutions, let us hope not.

There's a key point here: There are a lot of Americans - even a lot of Conservatives - who must be disabused of contemporary and too widely accepted leftists beliefs that diminish the importance of Citizens having primary and sole allegiance to this nation if they are to be truly American, and for America to continue to exist.

UN opposes proposed Nigerian ban on same-sex relationships - Africa
Four UN special rapporteurs on racism, violence against women, xenophobia and related intolerance said in a statement that the draft bill is 'an absolutely unjustified intrusion of individuals' right to privacy' and goes against the UN Universal Declaration of Human Rights.

The same folks who want to force the world to pay for global warming want to be the definers of what is morally proper. Nope, no global government aspirations to see here folks. Move along.

Free Trade and Funny Math by Patrick J. Buchanan - HUMAN EVENTS

Economic nationalism is the policy of rising powers, free trade the policy of declining powers. For great powers have ever regarded trade as an arena of struggle in the clash of nations. It is no accident all four presidents who made it to Mount Rushmore were protectionists.
That's powerful. Right now, being protectionist is not in favor. Why? Because those who control the information flow are pure, free-trade globalists who think the concept of a "soveriegn nation" is quaint.


Townhall.com::Prosecutor's discretion::By Debra J. Saunders


Last month, when Border Patrol Agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean began serving 11-year and 12-year prison sentences, respectively, for shooting at a fleeing drug smuggler, many Americans were outraged that the federal government would prosecute two agents for doing their jobs. Their trial uncovered policies that seem designed to undermine success -- such as the rule that prohibits agents from pursuing a speeding suspected smuggler without a supervisor's authorization.

Drug smugglers know that if they speed to the border, they'll likely get away. Former U.S. Border Patrol Agent David Ham points toward the location at Fabens, Texas, on Monday, Feb. 5, 2007, where former Border Patrol Agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Alonso Compean shot drug smuggler Osvaldo Davila last year. The agents began serving prison sentences in January after their convictions in the incident.

But the real outrage in this story is how federal prosecutors used their discretion to shelter a drug smuggler and go after two men who, at the worst, should have been fired for shooting at the smuggler and then not reporting what they had done. The outrage is that this case ever came to trial.
Once this is cleared up, can we shoot the freaking prosecutor in the ass with salt-buckshot in the public square? When I was a kid, there was a kooky old lady in the neighborhood who would shoot kids in the ass with the stuff if they rode bikes on her property. While I was never hit, I recall seeing the results. Painful.

blonde sagacity: A Rape Tree Grows Out West
It seems that when woman employ the "guides" that take you across the Mexican -U.S. border (called "Coyotes"), one thing these women must endure is the routine practice of being raped and as a visual reminder to all that come after --her bloodstains are left in the dirt and her panties are hung from the branches of a tree.
This was news to me. You've gotta see the pictures!


From My Position... On the way!: What Carren thinks of Senator McCain

Senator is not a word I would use for McCain. JERK (or asshat, as Chuck usually says) is more like it. When Chuck was in the hospital, Jerk came to "visit" us.

A quick story before I tell you what happened: A few weeks before Chuck was wounded I watched a TV movie that protrayed Jerk's time as a POW during Vietnam. I was intrigued by the story and developed a lot of respect for what he endured, and the fact that his wife waited all those years for him to return home. I knew bits and pieces of the story before watching the movie, and I knew his arms were badly damaged due to the torture he received. I had a lot of respect for the man... then I met him.

When he first walked in I was honored to meet him. He shook my hand and Alice's hand, then walked over to Chuck's bedside. After a lousy 5 minutes or so, the Jerk said (and I quote):

"Well, we all know what we're here for... let's do the photo op."

EXCUSE ME!!!??? The PHOTO OP???!!!!

What an effing loon...and he want's to be your president!


American Chronicle: Amnesty The Day Bush Killed America, If 30 million Ilegals are Good, Why Not 300 million?
President Bush, you defined your legacy well. Your name will live in perpetual infamy as the man that killed America. You have already replaced Benedict Arnold as the example of traitorous behavior but you have not gone as low as you can go. The ignoble day legislation granting amnesty or guest worker status to millions of illegals is passed, will go down in history with recognition equal to the day John Kennedy died, the Alamo, Pearl Harbor, 9-11, and Neville Chamberlain’s “peace in our time” declaration. All will remember where they were when Bush killed America. Mark that day well; you will need to explain to your children why you did nothing to stop it.
Bush is actually worse than all of those formerly breathing traitors put together. But let's not quibble about degree when we're so far immersed in Hell.


American Chronicle: Approve Amnesty? Then Drop the White House American flag, Spit, Piss on it, and burn it.
If Bush, Specter, McCain, Kennedy, Reid and the other Bushite corrupt leaders in congress pass a bill that conforms to Mexico’s demands, they should sign it in front of the Capitol Building with a big background “Mission Accomplished’ banner. At the same time they can lower the American flag to the ground, spit and piss on it, burn it and replace it with a white flag of surrender along with a Mexican, North American Union and World Trade Organization flags. Let them all be there for the photo-op so we will know who is lying when they blame our country’s ruin on others.
I want to start a rock group in which all the performers wear masks of politicians who want amnesty. The name of the group? How's "Deep Fried Surrender Monkeys" sound?


Democrats Worried About Offending Illegal Aliens!
As if the Democrats' mad rush to remake America into a third-world colony of Mexico were not bad enough, now a mindless liberal actually wants to scrap the First Amendment by banning use of the term "Illegal Alien" in what used to be the Great state of Florida.
Fredericka Wilson, the bill's sponsor, is probably the dumbest ball of lint excuse for an elected official I've ever had the pleasure of avoiding meeting at a social event.


The Sun Sets in the West by Patrick J. Buchanan - HUMAN EVENTS
In the early years of World Wars I and II, Europeans implored us to come save them from the Germans. We did. In the early Cold War, Europeans welcomed returning GIs who stood guard in the Fulda Gap. Now, with the threat gone, the gratitude is gone. Now, with their welfare states eating up their wealth, their peoples aging, their cities filling up with militant migrants, they want America to continue defending them, as they sit in moral judgment on how we go about it. This isn't an alliance. This isn't a partnership. Time to split the blanket. If they won't defend themselves, let them, as weaker nations have done to stronger states down through the ages, pay tribute
Pay up, Euroweenies!


Globalism: Enemy of the Middle Class -- February 2007 Phyllis Schlafly Report
Globalism is the enemy of the middle class. Globalism preaches that the world is flat; that nations should have no borders; that labor, capital, goods and services should flow freely between countries. Globalism's mantras are "free trade" and "abolish protectionism." Globalism forces American workers to compete against people who work in other countries for 30 cents an hour without benefits. Competing with such low wages means the end of the American middle class. Americans relish competition, as our national fixation on sports contests proves every day. But global trade is not played on a level playing field — our opponents don't play by the rules and the umpire (the World Trade Organization) is biased against us.
That's the big thing that most middle class supporters of globalization don't get: If it really happens all the way, then there won't be a middle class anywhere on earth. Those who are currently are American middle class workers by default will fall to the bottom. Nobody at the top will look out for their interests.


Auto Graveyard by Patrick J. Buchanan - HUMAN EVENTS
The world is witnessing the passing of the United States as the greatest industrial power and the most self-sufficient republic the world had ever seen. Yet, no one acts. Why? Ideology is one reason. Free-trade fanatics are like those devout Christians who will not undergo surgery, even if their malady is killing them. Second, there are the obtuse who simply cannot see that our "trade partners" have found a way around the rules and are skinning us alive. Third, to gain and hold high office, candidates of both parties depend on the contributions of a monied elite, whose salaries, bonuses, stock options and golden parachutes depend on a rising share price, which means constantly cutting costs by moving production out of United States and getting rid of high-wage American workers. There are rewards for economic treason.
I hate it that we are being so badly hosed while most of my neighbors and friends remain ignorant to what is really going on.


Gates of Vienna: Running Scared in Red House
“Yeah, he used to be all gung-ho and say things like ‘we’re not going to put up with this crap’ — he was all ready to take ’em on. But not long ago he ran into one of those Muslims down at the convenience store [at the corner of Rolling Hill Road and SR 727] and got into an argument. And would you believe, that sucker went to his van and pulled an assault rifle on him. Ever since then he’s been keeping a low profile — he doesn’t want anything else to happen to him, so he’s laying low.” This is a textbook example of mau-mauing in action. But it’s the most hardcore example of mau-mauing I’ve ever personally heard of. The Great Jihad operates by stealth. The knife at the throat is not its primary weapon of aggression; it prefers to erode our defenses incrementally, using social pressure, legal action, media manipulation, subversion, and good old-fashioned intimidation.
There's some scary crap going on in rural Virginia. I kid you not.


The Freedom Fighter's Journal: American Traitor Of The Week: JULIO PINO
The Second Award of "American Traitor Of The Week" goes to the vile and disgusting Julio Pino, an alleged professor and intellectual, who somehow wormed his cowardly way into a job at Kent State in Ohio. A pity we can't send the Ohio National Guard to the Kent State campus for a military style execution at sunrise tomorrow, as this piece of subhuman scum so richly deserves. Are there any patriots active in this part of Ohio? I have the address of some trash that needs to be taken out and dumped at the county landfill.
Ah! Yes! The National Guard!


Liberty Counsel News Release March 2, 2007
The students gathered in the cafeteria before school to pray, but a Satanist student went to the school office and complained. As a result, Vice Principal Otoupal told the Christian students they could not pray in the cafeteria but would have to go outside. After the students insisted on praying in the cafeteria because of inclement weather, Otoupal suspended them for ten days.
So, a Satanist can walk into a principal's office and be taken seriously? We're in bigger trouble than I thought...

Saying 'bloody foreigner' is ruled racist Uk News News Telegraph
Law Lords have ruled that calling someone a "bloody foreigner" and saying "get back to your own country" can amount to racial abuse.
This is from the land of "thought crime." The politically correct religiously secular left must clip headlines like this for their collages. Surely it's a papier mache and Elmer's glue night somewhere because of this!

Immigration ignored by dogmatic left and corporatist right (again)

Don't get me wrong, I like Real Clear Politics. But sometimes I think they shill too much for the corporatist right that profits from the recruited invasion of illegal aliens. In a recent interview with Mitt Romney, RCP co-founder Tom Bevan entirely misses a point, and an opportunity to properly engage on a very telling point that Romney makes almost at the very start of their conversation. Why the following produced no follow-up question is beyond reason:

RealClearPolitics - Articles - Interview With Mitt Romney
RCP: What's the question you get asked most?
ROMNEY: From Republican crowds most often the question relates to immigration, then education and healthcare.
I'd like to know why this response did not intrigue Mr. Bevans enough to at least ask what sort of questions are being asked by the rank-and-file? I think I know the answer: He didn't ask because if he had, he'd have had to report that the vast majority of Republicans are telling Mr. Romney they are pissed off about their nation being invaded. This would be a repudiation of the Bush Dissolve The Nation Doctrine, and it might expose as frauds the other supposed "front-runners" for the GOP nomination.

A couple of months ago, I started tracking the New York Times' "most searched" content". Should I find it surprising that despite the topic "immigration" having never fallen below third place in the search rankings, it fails to show up as a blip on the radar in either the "most emailed" or "most blogged about" categories (also published at the link). What I think this should tell us is that people are searching for answers to our immigration quagmire, but the stories that the New York Times serves up are not deemed worthy of being emailed or being blogged about by those who look to the NYT for information. Could it be possible that even predominately liberal NYT readers are not in agreement with the amnesty-centric positions being promoted by the left's best friend?

I think so.

And I don't see a bit of difference between the disingenuous manner in which Bevan handled the Romney interview in regard to immigration and the anti-American manner in which the New York times handles the same subject matter.

Revisting the Evils of the Anti-Racists

For the past few days I've been parrying with a decidedly inferiority-complex-bound intellect (I use the term loosely) in the comments section over at FreedomFolks who is openly determined to promote unfettered mass immigration as a penance for the evils of his ancestors. I've rarely come across someone so consumed by self-loathing in the 13 years I've been posting stuff on the Internet; today, the insistent little gnat came out of the closet and revealed his guilt for having Spanish, Italian and "Native American" blood. It appears he believes he must make amends with the "Indian" part of himself for the things that his Spaniard ancestors did. It all would be comical and laughable if his premise were not so pathetic, and his desire to take the nation down with him so virulent. I guess his being miserable about the combination of genes with which he was born isn't enough, he has to make us share his despair.

No thanks.

As is the case with all discussions in which a leftist is the antagonist, the time is fast approaching in which we can all invoke Godwin's Law and be done with him. He's already devolved into calling racist anyone who disagrees with his assessment that this nation is evil and must make amends for every wrong he perceives it has ever done by allowing ourselves to be over-run by the denizens of the third world. Right now, he's stuck on ad-hominems about our being bigoted for even thinking that this nation has a culture we should be concerned about keeping. Such is the plight of the anti-racist: He cannot see that he has become the reverse-actualization of the very figment-evil he decries.

All of this got me to thinking about a long ago post in which I agreed with Jim Kalb's assessment of the anti-racists. Nearly two years after the fact, this page is one of the most read of all I've ever posted here. And I think it's time that I bring Kalb's work to the forefront again. After all, the time I wasted responding to guilt-ridden trolls has to be good for something, right?

Anti-racism -- Jim Kalb

Indeed, anti-racism requires anti-majority racism. An anti-racist ruling class must treat the majority as presumptively wrong. "Ingrained social stereotypes" -- the culture and habits of the majority -- must be discredited because their dominance puts minorities at a disadvantage. Since habits and culture are what make a people what it is, the things that make the majority a people must be attacked; the majority must be defined as racist, and therefore evil and unfit to rule or even exist. "Racist" has the same function today that "nigger" once did: it makes a man less than human and so unfit for self-government.

Attempts to abolish deeply rooted human tendencies are necessarily tyrannical; "rule by the people" is absurd when a government that loses confidence in the people can dissolve it and form a new one. Such attempts inevitably fail, and succeed only in destroying traditional restraints. Attempts in Russia to abolish the profit motive ended, after unparalleled brutality and massacre, in lawless greed and mafia rule. It is not clear why attempts to abolish ethnicity should be more successful.

Rather than attempt a utopian transformation of human nature, it seems better to accept the distinctions men find important, and let them deal with them in customary ways that make sense to those involved; abuses and extreme cases can be dealt with as such. Things classified as racism -- ethnic loyalty and dominance -- are necessary features of social life. Something as closely related as ethnicity is to men's habits, attitudes and loyalties is plainly relevant to participation in a common effort like carrying on a business. The fact that men universally take ethnicity into account in choosing associates is the best possible evidence that it makes sense for them to do so.

For the last two years, I've lived in a rather mixed-ethnicity and mixed-race neighborhood. The student-of-human-nature part of me has been fascinated by the self-segregation that goes on here. Despite this being a very liberal and leftist college town, and despite my neighbors being predominately leftist in political persuasion, the strongest bonds I see growing in this most "utopian" for the multiculturalist setting, are between people who are of the same ethnicity and the same race. While we all exchange superficial pleasantries, the only times I have witnessed or participated in deep conversations about substantive issues, the participants have obvious ancient-tribal similarities. Heck, we even self-segregate our seating arrangements at our homeowners' association meetings. I notice this stuff and wonder who else sees the same things.

Ramos & Compean: The Smoking Gun Appears

Until now, I've been mostly mute on the disgusting prosecution and conviction by a Federal Prosecutor of two fine Border Patrol Agents, Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean. Something has always stunk to high heavens about this: I could think of no legitimate reason for the kangaroo court proceedings that made sense. I didn't want to think that the Feds would really go this far to do something that appears on its face to be so immoral, so unethical and so contrary to the sovereign interests of all citizens. To me, either there was legitimacy in the case, or there were some major pieces of the puzzle that had not yet come to light.

As of yesterday, I'd only been keeping up with the case by getting regular Google Alerts on the matter and waiting for something to break one way or the other. Today, I learned the most convincing piece of information, likely ever to come to light, that exposes a whole new disgusting underbelly of our immigration nightmare:



Our government is colluding with the Government of Mexico to lay waste to the rights of US Citizens.

WorldNetDaily: Mexico demanded U.S. posecute sheriff, agents

The Mexican Consulate played a previously undisclosed role in the events leading to U.S. Attorney Johnny Sutton's high-profile prosecution of Border Patrol Agents Ignacio Ramos and Jose Compean, who are serving 11 and 12 year sentences for their role in the shooting of a drug smuggler, according to documents obtained by WND.

I've known for many years that Mexican Consular Officials Cockroaches have worked tirelessly lobbying for Mexican interests at the Federal, State and Local levels. I've considered their efforts to be unprosecuted subversion of our sovereignty. But this crap is so disgusting, so contrary to America's interests and so in-line with my suspicions about the Bush Administration's too-cozy relationship with Mexico's kleptocratic elites that it simply makes sense that American law enforcement officers would be thrown under the bus if Mexico merely asked. If Mexico has that much sway with the Feds about law enforcement, what leeway might our government give those bastards to go after regular citizens? What might the Bushites allow those scumbags to do to shut up Bloggers like me who constantly bring these travesties to the attention of our readers? You can damned well bet that I'll not be getting even close to the Mexican border so long as the goons currently in residence in the White House are led by the nose by Mexican interests.

I'm reminded of this:

Hell no

Here is how an American responds to idiocy:

Mexican Reporter: "Don't you believe you're a Mexican? Don't you believe you have any loyalty to Mexico?"

Lupe Moreno: "Hell no. I have only one loyalty. That is to my country, to my flag."


See for yourself:



Remember, the Mexican government is determined that no person in the United States who is of Mexican descent ever believes in the sovereignty of our nation the way Lupe does. There are scores of Mexican consular officials scurrying about our nation like rats, and they're trying mightily to keep others from becoming real Americans. Lupe scares them.

It's time for a reality check!

This morning I stumbled upon a decidedly pro-illegal alien video produced by a student filmmaker. I wasn't aware that ICE had actually started doing its job; however, it is likely that this is only being done on a symbolic scale. It appears that after the marches last spring there was a move on the part of the Feds to actually look like they were ending the practice of "catch and release." From experience I know that this is all for show; a show to weaken the resolve of those who oppose mass immigration or illegal immigration but are not quite as informed on the matter as some of us. It is indeed unfortunate that our government assumes most Americans can be conned by insignificant action. It is incredibly sad that their assumptions may be true.

Keep that in mind as you watch this:




Yep. There are families in these detention facilities. The alternative, I think, would be to split them up, putting adults in facilities like this one and youth in standard juvenile detention facilities. This is more compassionate. ICE contends:


Before ICE opened the Hutto facility, alien families caught illegally crossing the border were often released with “Notices to Appear” before federal immigration judges. However, they rarely appeared for these hearings. This “catch and release” policy created a border vulnerability that alien smugglers sought to exploit by bringing children across the border along with groups of smuggled strangers, attempting to pass the groups off as family units. By bringing the children, the smugglers hoped to avoid detention if captured.

Key Advantages of the T. Don Hutto Family Residential Facility

  • The facility provides an avenue for residents to maintain family unity while ICE enforces immigration laws.
  • Family members are housed together in a “residential, non-secure” setting where they can interact with one another and other families.
  • Designated areas within the facility serve as classrooms for children and adults. In accordance with state education requirements, all resident children receive classroom instruction taught by state-certified teachers, including (ESL) classes.
  • As a family shelter facility, interior doors remain unlocked; the staff is specially trained to interact with residents to identify potential emerging problems.
    The facility operates in accordance with applicable ICE detention standards to ensure that families are safe and that specially trained personnel address their needs. All facility staff members receive more than 24 hours of specialized training in dealing with children.
  • The facility is staffed with a robust complement of ICE officers to ensure thorough monitoring of operations.
  • The three daily meals are approved by certified dieticians.


Other T. Don Hutto Family Residential Facility Highlights

  • The U.S. Public Health Service operates the medical area, which includes a mental health staff.
  • The facility’s chaplain works with community volunteers to offer the residents the opportunity to worship and to strengthen family ties.
  • A facility Community Relations Board is comprised of about 25 local citizens, including the bank president, mayor, chamber of commerce president, county and district officials, and representatives of the local media.
  • Adult classes are available in parenting, ESL, vocational classes, family counseling, art and crafts.
  • Residents are provided with t-shirts, sweat shirts and/or medical-style scrubs. (“Jail uniforms” are not worn).
  • Doors to individual family living areas provide ample privacy. However, as appropriate for the unique mission of this facility, internal doors are not locked, facilitating maximum freedom of movement.
  • The general library contains more than 2,000 books, and the law library is available five days a week to residents.
  • The fully air-conditioned 75,000-square-foot facility accommodates 512 beds.
    Natural light is available throughout the living areas and hallways.The facility includes three large shaded pavilions outdoors and spacious outdoor play areas. In addition, a full-size gymnasium is available with recreational activities including basketball, volleyball, handball, baseball, soccer, and ping-pong.
I contend that we treat illegal alien families better than we treat American families when both parents are arrested for committing crimes. The children of American criminals, when there are no other family members to take them in, are placed in overburdened and often downright scary state foster care systems.

It is important to note the most important truth in this: The people detained in the Hutto Facility have broken our laws. They have used their children as pawns, perhaps in the expectation that doing so will insulate them from the consequences of their actions.

Then pack them up and ship them back to where they came from. It's probably more "compassion" than they deserve, and certainly more "compassion" than we show for American citizens who have similarly broken our laws. If there isn't more of this done, and soon, then the whole thing is proved to be just window dressing for suffering another disastrous amnesty upon us.
