"A day without an immigrant" May first 2006

The recent protest regarding issues of immigration have prompted some to organize a national demonstration. This is an informational post to let everyone know that if previous demonstrations are any indication of how successful this could be then then perhaps everyone should know about it.

I have not seen this on the news so you should be aware.

Immigrants contribute 7 billion in social security per year. they earn 240 billion, report 90 billion, and only are reimbursed 5 billion, "where are the 85 billion?" They also contribute to the U.S. economy 25 billion more than they receive in healthcare, etc., etc., etc. According to the anti-immigrant politicians and hatemongers, "immigrants are a drain on society." If this is true, then during the day on May 1st the stock market will surge, and the economy will boom. If not, we prove them wrong once and for all. We know what will happen!

It looks like they are conveniently throwing immigrants and illegal immigrants into the same bucket again. The former are the ones they are most likely talking about above. The latter ones are criminals that don't contribute anything, and I'm sure they are what this "call to action" is all about.

What is so blurry about the illegal and legal immigrant? I'm not getting it.

...Very succinct. Either you are here legally or you are not. End of discussion. Cheers, Wagner.

What some may not see is the organized effort to de-crimanalize-illegal- and make this a human issue. In other words some folks believe they have the right to come into the country and do this or that when in fact as an illegal alien they have no such right at all.

No one will do a thing about it. People will quietly sit in a fog as it happens. On May 1st this organized effort will be played out and people will just stand by, do nothing, and the suits in DC will protect their political life and do nothing as well.

For years people have been saying this is an issue, but folks that are much smarter that john Q public were saying "oh there is no problem". Now the same people are saying it's a problem but are not willing to do a thing about it. You can also bet that any legislation that the voters would pass in favor of solving this problem would promptly be reversed by political idiots who make it a pratice to reverse the will of the people.

Man we didn't even do anything when El Presedente Fox decided to show illegals how to get into the US.

REASON: The US and Mexico quietly came to an agreement to allow this to happen. Now it's out of control and people are seeing what's going on.
