Illegal immigration?

Yes Jews are descendants of immigrants. but does that mean we have to support illegal immigration?


Arguments for the Arizona bill

Of course I know there are prejudiced individuals in any community,
including law enforcement, but a blanket condemnation
of all law enforcement in Arizona?: ""It would certainly not be difficult
for AZ law enforcement officials to use one other 'factor' as cover for their
prejudice." The vast majority of American law
enforcement officers and officials -- including those in Arizona -- are honest
and fair.

As for usurping Federal authority: Arizona would not have needed to write
the law into the State legal code if the Federal government had been
enforcing Federal law. As Clarissa Martinez De Castro of the National Council of
La Raza said to CNN, "It goes back to the federal government. If they
abdicate their responsibility, they leave state and local governments to grapple
with this issue, and the only thing that happens is that we create greater
chaos."

As for criminalizing a Federal civil offense: Quoting directly from her
remarks at the signing ceremony, Governor Janice K. Brewer said, "Despite
erroneous and misleading statements suggesting otherwise, the new state
misdemeanor crime of willful failure to complete or carry an alien registration
document is adopted, verbatim, from the same offense found in federal
statute." (Emphasis added.)

As for trampling 4th Amendment rights: I quote from ABC15.com:
"These new statements make it crystal clear and undeniable that racial
profiling is illegal, and will not be tolerated in Arizona," [Governor Brewer]
said in a statement.

Changes to the bill language will actually remove the word "solely" from
the sentence, "The attorney general or county attorney shall not investigate
complaints that are based solely on race, color or national origin." [sic]

Another change replaces the phrase "lawful contact" with "lawful stop,
detention or arrest" to apparently clarify that officers don't need to
question a victim or witness about their legal status.

A third change specifies that police contact over violations for local
civil ordinances can trigger questioning on immigration status.

MOVING TO MEXICO


Dear President Obama:
I'm planning to move my family and extended family into Mexico for my health, and I would like to ask you to assist me.

We're planning to simply walk across the border from the U.S. Into Mexico, and we'll need your help to make a few arrangements.

We plan to skip all the legal stuff like visas, passports, immigration quotas and laws.

I'm sure they handle those things the same way you do here. So, would you mind telling your buddy, President Calderon, that I'm on my way over?

Please let him know that I will be expecting the following:

1. Free medical care for my entire family.

2. English-speaking government bureaucrats for all services I might need, whether I use them or not.

3. Please print all Mexican government forms in English.

4. I want my grandkids to be taught Spanish by English-speaking (bi-lingual) teachers.

5. Tell their schools they need to include classes on American culture and history.

6. I want my grandkids to see the American flag on one of the flag poles at their school.

7. Please plan to feed my grandkids at school for both breakfast and lunch.

8. I will need a local Mexican driver's license so I can get easy access to government services.

9. I do plan to get a car and drive in Mexico , but, I don't plan to purchase car insurance, and I probably won't make any special effort to learn local traffic laws.

10. In case one of the Mexican police officers does not get the memo from their president to leave me alone, please be sure that every patrol car has at least one English-speaking officer.

11. I plan to fly the U.S. Flag from my house top, put U S. Flag decals on my car, and have a gigantic celebration on July 4th. I do not want any complaints or negative comments from the locals.

12. I would also like to have a nice job without paying any taxes, or have any labor or tax laws enforced on any business I may start.

13. Please have the president tell all the Mexican people to be extremely nice and never say critical things about me or my family, or about the strain we might place on their economy.

14. I want to receive free food stamps.

15. Naturally, I'll expect free rent subsidies.

16. I'll need Income tax credits so although I don't pay Mexican Taxes, I'll receive money from the government.

17. Please arrange it so that the Mexican Gov't pays $4,500 to help me buy a new car.

18. Oh yes, I almost forgot, please enroll me free into the Mexican Social Security program so that I'll get a monthly income in retirement.

I know this is an easy request because you already do all these things for all his people who walk over to the U..S. From Mexico . I am sure that President Calderon won't mind returning the favor if you ask him nicely..

Thank you so much for your kind help. You're the man!!!
