I have to laugh every time I hear someone spout a figure regarding the number of illegal aliens in this country. They always tell you 8 to 12 million. This is a figure that originated by the Department of Homeland Security in 2003 (11 freaking years ago) and it never changes. The Obama government purposely underestimates the number of illegal aliens. God, what some people won't do for a vote to keep their Party in power.
Any sane person knows, just simply by living and working in their communities across the United States, that the country is loaded with illegals and the government figures are totally out of whack. Yesterday the Palm Beach Post had an article that said Hispanics have become a larger part of our population (like we don't know that) and released figures from the United States Census Bureau. In Palm Beach County, they tell us it is now 20.3%. It not only seems larger than the reported figure, it is larger, because we know that the government lies and illegal aliens lied during the Census.
Everywhere you go these days, people are speaking in Spanish and it's an affront to the sensibilities of law abiding American citizens. They come here illegally and refuse to learn our language. One of our immigration laws is the one requiring immigrants to learn and speak English before they can attain citizenship. So, these people could care less about that...they just want the rewards of being a citizen without actually being one.
“We’re the greatest country in the universe.. You’re trying to tell me that we can’t control the illegal immigration coming into our country,” said Sheriff Joe Arpaio in a Washington Times interview
Using the latest conservative Census Bureau data from 2010 and 2011, the Center for Immigration Studies reports that more than 50 million immigrants (legal and illegal) live in the United States, and that "Absent a change in policy, between 12 and 15 million new immigrants (legal and illegal) will likely settle in the United States in the next decade. And perhaps 30 million new immigrants will arrive in the next 20 years."
The magnitude of the numbers of illegal aliens in the United States represents a serious crisis and urgent need for a return to the rule of law and secured borders that the United States Constitution demands. Colorado Alliance for Immigration Reform

What the Europeans did to the American Indians who lived on this land you call the USA many years ago was criminal too. It was a lot worse what they did to the Indians who were indigenous to the Americas back then, than what is going on now. We need to have more compassion for all immigrants and especially the ones that have indigenous roots to this land. God forgive the whites who took this land over from the indigenous. Even Albert Einstein understood this, “A human being is a part of the whole called by us universe, a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feeling as something separated from the rest, a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in its beauty.”
we need to start looking at this world where we all live together without separate countries. We need to take care of all our brothers and sisters, we are all one.
Compassion should also be extended to rapists, then. If a man really wants to rape a woman, she must be lacking in compassion if she resists, as this would not be showing understanding. Right??
If he wants to have her, he should be able to. If she has something he wants, she should share. Right??
I always think of illegal immigration in terms of rape. When a man rapes a woman, he crosses a line that cannot be crossed without a gross violation of the dignity of the other person. He does not acknowledge the line or care about it. He does not see her as a person made in the image of God.
When someone illegally crosses into the United States and stays here illegally he violates the dignity and sovereignty of the country, showing all Americans the greatest disrespect. His act is unlawful and dishonest. He shows by the act of disobeying our immigration laws that he does not respect us as a nation under God, a nation of laws based on the natural rights of man.
The only right thing to do is to eject and punish the transgressors in both cases. The illegal immigrants should be made to pay restitution for the income they earned while here illegally, work to pay for their own deportation, and then be sent back to their country of origin. If they are caught here a second time, they should be dropped in the middle of the Amazon.
This is not mean. It's tough love. I love you as a fellow human. But you disrespected us and broke our laws. So you must pay the consequences. And you cannot ever live among us.
