Now that the illegal immigrants have finally started to make their demands known to Lilly White Dumbass America (also known as Urban White Liberals and Country Club Republicans), let's get down to a few, minor problems with those who defend the illegal immigrants. There are a lot of urban legends about them, so let's get started.
With today's mechanized labor forces, there is no way that more than 5% of them are working in American agriculture. 5% of the estimated illegal immigrants would mean that there are 600,000 migrant workers, a generous and probably too liberal number, but we'll give them the benefit of the doubt. So what jobs are the other immigrants, all 11,400,000 and some odd, doing? Apparently a lot of jobs besides fast food, like joining our military. So now, can we please put a stop to the lie that illegal immigrants have the civility to only do the jobs that no one else would do?
So now, how are we going to integrate these fine, upstanding citizens of other countries into our multicultural beef stew-I mean melting pot? That is a relevent question since unlike the European, Asian and African immigrants, the illegals from Mexico don't seem to have much of a desire to integrate peacefully. In fact, a lot of them are making outright demands to have the country all but turned over to them. I don't recall the Poles, Vietnamese or Nigerians making similar demands when they started arriving on our shores. A lot of these people don't want to give up on their Mexican heritage, and that's fine, but they're on our side of the border. Just imagine what our country would be like today if the Irish immigrants' descendants still spoke Gaelic, the Germans German, the Poles Polish, Japanese Japanese, etc. instead of English and retained all of the culture of their forefathers.
If you're a typical establishment liberal or Republican, you are no doubt about to start squeeling "RACIST!" with the disgust of an Islamist forced to watch Ariel Sharon's bar mitzvah. Well, if they're so misunderstood, then explain why these types of people were the ones who pushed for the demonstrations in the first place. Funny, I'm not European, but the color of my skin (white) makes me European, not American. The best part? These Mexicans actually have the audacity to claim solidarity with the Cherokee, Sioux and other American Indians that are from areas far away from their Aztec ancestors and who have no more in common with them culturally than the Galicians have in common with the Russians. They want solidarity on nothing less than the repatriation of all whites to Europe and presumably all blacks to Africa, all Asians back to Asia, etc. Even though they claim to not advocate violence, they want a continent that has been racially sterilized of everyone but them.
Of course I don't think that all illegal immigrants are like this, but most of them have an entitlement mentality. Some rich asshole hired them to trim their lawn, babysit their latch key kid so that they could pursue that new beamer, process their poultry, etc. Therefore they think that America invited them here. Here, let's give them the consolation prize of watching their rich employers get sent to prison for hiring illegals and evading Social Security taxes. There are still large communities in many areas of the North, even a century later, that are still defined by immigrant identity. The last thing we need is to take on 12,000,000 illegals, many of whom have no plans to ever give up on their Mexican identity.
There are only three types of people who think that we have no immigration problem. Those who are benefiting from the cheap labor, the real cost of which is born by the other classes of society through higher property and medicare taxes, those who support illegal immigration, and those who are too stupid to see the danger in allowing 12,000,000 illegal immigrants from a country as old as ours that has been a consummate failure as a nation and government since nearly day one.
Y'all can thank Difster for getting me worked up on this.


Any time Mike, any time. :)
good stuff...living here in SoCal, this nonsense drives me crazy...the intellectual dishonesty of the treason lobby is downright frightening...do you think these Senators and Congressmen know the truth and ignore it (due to bribery, etc.) or are they just total ignorant dumbshits?
I think they ignore it because they are in politics first and foremost for themselves. This is the corruption of having a smaller Congress, composed of people who are in it for a career and not a public service to the people. Some argue that having term limits on Congress would limit their policy expertise and make them weaker in front of a strong President, but I think that's a bunch of bullshit. The longer that Congress stays in, the harder it seems for them to do their job.
"Just imagine what our country would be like today if the Irish immigrants’ descendents still spoke Gaelic, the Germans German, the Poles Polish, Japanese Japanese, etc. instead of English and retained all of the culture of their forefathers."
Probably a lot more culturally diverse and tolerant of difference...
Sorry, I just had to poke you for that comment. Multicultural societies have never worked. Most of the time they've been held together by state power, not "tolerance." Yugoslavia was a prime example of that, and they had much fewer ethnic groups with fewer cultural differences than what we could have faced.
Yeah, Lucas, just like... the Balkans, Iraq, Sudan, China or Indonesia...
Multiculturalism has worked sooooo well in those countries, why if we just let each little ethnic group have it's own enclave, we'd have a great society, not a balkanized continent seething with ethnic difference like other multicultural countries.
