God
This one came to me from a good mexican friend...








There will be no special bilingual programs in the schools.

No special ballots for elections.

ALL government business will be conducted in our language.

Foreigners will NOT have the right to vote no matter how long they are here.

Foreigners will NEVER be able to hold political office.

Foreigners will NOT be a burden to the taxpayers.

No welfare, no food stamps, no health care, or other government assistance programs.

Foreigners can invest in this country, but it must be an amount equal to 40,000 times the daily minimum wage.

If foreigners do come and want to buy land that will be okay for them. BUT options will be restricted.

You are NOT allowed waterfront property. That is reserved for citizens naturally born into this country.

Foreigners may NOT protest; no demonstrations, no waving a foreign flag, no political organizing, no bad-mouthing our president or his policies.

If you do you will be sent home.

If you do come to this country illegally, you will be hunted down and sent straight to jail.

Harsh , you say?




The above laws happen to be the immigration laws of MEXICO
 
I know that immigration is the hot topic and I for one don't care for the attitude of many of the immigrate leadership. We stood in long lines, fill out mountains of papers, and paid out huge chucks of money to get my wife and son squared away correctly and legally when I returned to Virginia in October of 2001. I lived, got an education and worked in Mexico and Central America for 33 years and one thing that I found out for sure; there's good and bad in every culture. I think this article reminds us of that point and I wanted to share this with you'll if you had not seen it already. http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/22013748/?gt1=10547

I think what he did was a good thing, and of course there are good people from all walks of life and nations.

Did you read this near the end of the article?
Cordova said he wanted to come to the United States to earn money to feed his four children, who live with their mother, and help support his girlfriend's three children. "I have two families, many mouths to feed," he said.
Maybe he's a little too good.
 
Yes I did and that really does not put him in a good light either. I just hate to see every immigrate lumped into one basket. But you are correct in your comment, better to have stayed with one.
 
The only thing I wish is that people coming to this country
would learn some manors along with English.

I was in Wally World the other day minding my own busines
when I come upon a Spanish family.
I want to get by, but they take up the complete aisle
so I say excuse me I need to get through.
No reply, so I edge my way through and go around the corner.
I realize I forgot soemthing in that aisle and I have to return.
I come around the corner and come face to face with the
grandmother who is calling me "gordo",
I am a little portly, well big, but I also know enough spanish to understand.
I gave her the dirtiest look you could imagine.
She did th preverbial hand on mouth and quickly ran away.
I gues she didn't realize that us fat Americans are always
learning new things including languages, cause we know we have to keep up to protect ourselves.
 
you hit a sore spot I am not a native American but I am a carter
member of the USA my for fathers fought in the revolution war some even gave all ,so that I have to press one for English i don't think thats right for years people came to this country they keepted their heritage but they learned to speak English and to fit in thats Wat made this country great
 
um that is a piss me off section um i say shoot all that moves on the border then ask questions and send all home here that aren't legal. and the legal ones pay taxes or leave.
 
I don't want to shoot anyone, don't even want to fight anymore.
What I want is for our government, the Mexican government such as it is and those who want to come here to respect us for what this nation has become and how it became that way.
Right now because of the lack of respect by the illegal immigrants and our politicians who are looking out for their own pockets only we are viewed as a great suckling pig where endless streams of illegals and politicians can line up at the teats and gorge.
Well my friends the flowing milk comes from us, we are being robbed legally by our government to pay for it and I for one am so disgusted it makes me ill.
I have been to many places in the world and I love people of all walks of life, but when I traveled I always respected the culture and the laws and traditions of the people who were kind enough to let me visit. I tried my best to speak the language. Even though there temporaily.
I respect anyone living in poverty that seeks a better life for their families, I would too. But I would again respect the culture I am trying to seek it in and I would try to do it legally. I also would do my damnest to be involved to change the country where I am from first, Mexico is a beautiful nation with great people and enormous oil recources, maybe its time they stood up and made their own nation a symbol of freedom and forward thinking economy. Maybe they should see what 1776 in history means and how we came to where we are. And maybe our government should be involved in helping these forward thinkers in our own back yard and help establish a
democratic progressive country for all the people right here on our border. Instead we watch as millions suffer in poverty while a small minority gets pig filthy rich.
I think that would be our best immigration policy. Think of how it would be to have a stable economy and government for the people on our southern border too.
 
You are right on the target. My concern is that eventually the borders both North and South will fling wide open. I am all for helping people but I sure as heck don't believe in a free hand out. Freedom and liberties are greatly repressed in many countries. In Honduras there was a missionary who was preaching in the public square. He was told to stop as it is illegally to preach in a public forum with out a permit. He did it again and he was deported. I know this for a fact as I was contracted to fly him and his family out. If the borders ever come down completely that is the kind of garbage I see infiltrating. Our freedoms being curtailed. As for language, I learned spanish in the streets of Mexico, it was that or go hungry. Later when I went to school they certainly did not change the language to english for my benefit. To be bilingual is good but let it as a complement not a requirement. That puts way too much burden on our teachers. They are already overloaded and under paid. Our government needs to crack down on some of the trouble maker leadership of the immigration movement. I'm glad the guy helped the child at the accident and I want the country to always remain open but open to legal entry and receive the respect that we has earned as is justly due us.
 
I just wish our politicians would read our board and other boards just to see what regular guys
and gals are actually thinking and saying.



Ahhhhh dreams...
 
I guess I started a good post.

Conditions in Mexico are bad but that should not allow them any more rights to come here than some one else. The illegals should be sent back no mater what nationality they are. I don't want to be taxed to support them. Billy Mac ;D
